Happy New Year! I'm starting year 2 of a personal project to Buy Nothing (from the Broligarchs). I will NOT give the Trump Hate Machine economic support if I can help it. I do buy food, medical and work supplies, and local or second-hand clothes and gear. I use Bluesky as my journal of my process

Donald Trump must fire Kristi Noem immediately.
Or Democrats will initiate impeachment proceedings against her in the House.
We can do this the easy way or the hard way.

ICE has been authorizing officers to forcibly enter homes without judicial warrants—a reversal of longstanding guidance to protect people's constitutional rights.

It's a terror campaign against all of us. It must stop.
ICE pointed guns at a retired couple in a church lot and lied. No warrant. No rights. Just terror.
PAXIS tells us that’s unconstitutional. You have the right to remain silent, see a judicial warrant, and not open the church door.
PAXIS holds that line. Learn more & support: www.paxis.app

A thoughtful read of the important Minnesotans nobody notices, as they are doing good.
“That’s where ICE dragged a pregnant woman through the snow.”
"That’s where they killed Renee Nicole Good."
Crime scenes, but too many to tape off individually. A crime scene that’s a life-size map of the world.
Hypervigilance is the real punishment. It exhausts the will. trib.al/OEYLXrz

Trump aides declared 16 DHS shootings since July justified before probes completed
The Trump administration’s rush to defend the officers and accuse the victims of attacking them has sparked widespread outrage and demands for accountability.

Day 392 of Buy Nothing (from the broligarchs): My husband's problem solving skills just scored us a much faster & cheaper repair of our wood stove - he noticed that our chimney cap had fallen down & wasn't turning & our pipe was leaking smoke, & fixed both. Goodbye indoor smoke & slow-pokey fires!

Just kinda seems like refusing to tell us which ICE agents murdered Alex Pretti undercuts the idea that they’re wearing masks to protect themselves — rather than to be able to kill people with impunity.

So simply naming someone is doxxing, but taking photos and license plate numbers to create a database of the opposition for government stalking and harassment purposes is not?
Naming someone is not doxxing them, and moving them to another city to kill more is conspiracy against rights.

Naming someone is not doxxing. They aren’t undercover. They aren’t intelligence agents overseas. This is outrageous - we are supposed to be a free Republic and these people want an authoritarian police state. Lawsuits should be filed & ranking Dems in Congress should act.

Majority of the country now wants to abolish and/or dismantle ICE and yet Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y. told the caucus the message had to be to “restrain, reform and restrict ICE.”
Once again it looks like Schumer is about to choke after getting a massive opportunity.
So pathetic and weak.
