SHAKESPEARE IS ALWAYS RELEVANT ABD NECESSARY.
Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again.

Call your reps and say how unacceptable this is - these are all things DHS is *already supposed to be doing*
Call your reps, tell them it’s defund abolish and prosecute and nothing less.

Democrats want commonsense reform for ICE:
End the roving patrols and racial profiling.
Take accountability and abide by the same rules as local police.
Masks need to come off, body cameras need to stay on—no secret police in the United States of America.

Thinking for no reason today about the time at a nonprofit when I argued against accepting a donation from someone recently arrested for CSAM. The donation was accepted and I learned a whole lot about people's fundraising priorities.

Y’all, this is Nikema Levy Armstrong & the GoFundMe page for legal fees has not received much attention in spite of her bravery in speaking out against that ICE field office pastor & being badly smeared by this regime for doing so.
She stood up for us, let’s not leave her hanging:

![Hi everyone! I went to my daughters 6 month check up and I passed on the vaccines because I want to wait til she’s older. We have [name redacted], he seemed very forceful about vaccines, he said that 1 in 4 die from measles and it’s his job to inform us. Which I do agree but he was extremely rude about it, he said if measles comes back good luck getting in to get her the vaccine because everyone will be in there getting their kids vaccinated and they don’t have enough vaccines for everyone. I just want to know which dr you guys go to for your kids. I want to switch doctors as soon as possible. I think he was extremely disrespectful, I do understand the risks. I just want to wait til she’s older so it’s easier for her body to handle.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:cfxiws4xefzf46pk4ca3yeul/bafkreif6f4ntmieqcgqrl7tlp5bm3cgomkfyxhg7ygg2c3lzlqgb2arliy@jpeg)
