I have never seen anything like this in NYC. 5th Ave covered from 42nd St well to the 20s. Nobody prepared for this volume. Volunteers are holding the traffic on all the side streets. No police in sight. #handsoff

Full of people down 5th avenue, view from 39th Street.

This is why you fight these cowards.

The moment you stand up to them, they crumble.

Homan has nothing. The Fourth Amendment is clear and I am well within my duties to educate people of their rights.

He can threaten me with jail and call names all he wants. He’s got nothing else.

I know it’s the same recording every day but I swear the dude on John Fetterman’s voicemail sounds more exasperated every time I call.

Crockett: "If feels as if y'all have just decided that y'all are gonna castrate your constitutional duty & hand it over to someone who was unelected. It doesn't matter how many cheerleaders he had on the field campaigning for him. That doesn't mean he gets to go in and sit atop any of our agencies"

Being a parent right now is a weird mental space cause all day you’re calling senators and checking in on the fall of democracy during work and then at 3:30 you gotta pivot and be like “WHAT the tire swing on the playground BROKE today?! No way, that’s so crazy.”

I used to think there were people in place and in charge who were smarter than me and knew how to "handle" things. Nope. As my homeboy said, It’s like growing up and realizing that adults don’t know what they are doing either.

Girls wknd catching up w/my bestie about this insane narcissistic “leader” who derives power by spreading lies & creating societal scapegoats, has no empathy for anyone he perceives as different,& cares more about his own image than the people he rules over … also chatted about Wicked too. #Wicked

The government has no right to decide what name or nickname your child goes by in class.

The government has no right to pick out what clothes your child wears to school.

This is not just an attack on trans children. It's an attack on personal choice.

With Sweeping Executive Orders, Trump Tests Local Control of Schools

The orders seek to encourage “patriotic education” and restrict discussions about racism and gender by threatening to withdraw federal funding. But schools are often resistant to change.

Once you realize that Trump isn’t nominating cabinet members to RUN agencies but DESTROY them, it makes more sense.
