If you currently work in the federal government, your most important job may be to eventually become a witness! Figure out now how you would communicate anonymously with journalists like myself. FWIW, my email is phil [dot] williams [at] newschannel5 [dot] com. www.forbes.com/advisor/busi...

Sen. Elissa Slotkin on Letitia James being indicted: "It's part of a bigger trend of the President of the United States using the Department of Justice, using the legal system, to go after political adversaries."

It’s a core First Amendment principle. This is utterly lawless behavior, for which there will be no (short-term) consequences.

That he does it so casually, as they are walking away, in front of cameras.

Rightly confident in his impunity.

“[t]he freedom of individuals verbally to oppose or challenge police action without thereby risking arrest is one of the principal characteristics by which we distinguish a free nation from a police state.”

Pritzker: "People of Illinois, we need your help. Get our your cell phones, record and narrate what you see. Put it on social media. Peacefully ask for badge numbers and identification. Speak up for your neighbors. We need to let the world know that this is happening and that we won't stand for it."

I saw an article that called the location "near Flint." It's actually in a very white, low crime rural Grand Blanc area.

I was back at 26 Federal Plaza today, where an ICE agent violently threw this bereft woman to the ground in front of her kids. She had not touched him. She did not pose any threat. She had to be taken to the hospital. (🎥: Elias Eliahu)

As soon as the governor signs this illegal bill, Missouri will be sued. I don't bluff and I usually win.

Hi, Bluesky!

Over one million people cut Disney+, which is why Disney did the right thing and brought Jimmy Kimmel back without conditions.

So I ask you, which mega company are we boycotting next and why?

For those living outside the USA and are asking if Americans even recognize that their president is a stark, raving mad lunatic:
Yes. Yes we do. Most of us, anyway.

You need to come and live in the real world where Kamala is 100% accurate in her comments about Buttigieg. Straight white men won't stand for a gay man as President/Vice President. It will never happen.

800 detainees are missing after being held in Alligator Alcatraz in July, showing no record of their location in ICE’s database.

Other detainees have been mistakenly deported or sent to detention centers thousands of miles away.

The cruelty is the point.

More than 1800 detainees are missing after the closure of Alligator Alcatraz. Their families and lawyers can’t find them and they’ve vanished from the ICE database. Feels like this should be a much bigger story www.miamiherald.com/news/local/i...

Hundreds of Alligator Alcatraz detainees drop off the grid after leaving site

As of the end of August, the whereabouts of two-thirds of more than 1,800 men detained at Alligator Alcatraz during the month of July could not be determined by the Miami Herald.

BOYCOTTS WORK!!!

Robert Reich @rbreich.bsky.social · 22d

Jimmy Kimmel isn't returning to the airwaves because of "thoughtful conversations" with Disney executives.

He's back because consumers sent Disney a clear message: selling out our fundamental rights is not an acceptable cost of doing business.

I keep hearing people say they feel helpless about the fascists taking over our country. You can speak with your money, where you spend it and where you DON'T spend it. Boycotts work. 💙💙💙

God @thegodpodcast.com · 22d

Jimmy Kimmel returns tomorrow.

This is an important victory for free speech.

Remember that it was YOU all using your power TOGETHER that got a gigantic corporation to reverse itself.

Bless everyone who participated in telling Mickey Mouse to fuck off.

This is the playbook, folks.

If you're not paying attention now and doing something about it, then you're going to have to sit down the rest of your life because democracy is being taken away.

Do not be quiet in this moment.
