"Abolish ICE" is the moderate position. "Try everyone involved in ICE for crimes against humanity" is the progressive one.

Important--this is the most significant Trump revenge prosecution that has been flying under the radar. @replamonica.bsky.social we stand with you! Friends please give a read....
I came to Congress to do the job: to work for people and protect them.

Now I’m facing 17 years in prison for standing up to this administration and to ICE. But if they think I’ll back down, they are wrong.

I can’t go to the grocery store alone right now because ICE is racially profiling and abducting people who aren’t white
Despite Trump’s promises, grocery prices are still rising fast. Families can’t afford this… when is he going to get serious about lowering costs?

Congratulations #Zootopia2 for all the well-deserved success!

When the first movie came out and back when I was still homebrewing I made a special Judy Hopps dessert stout.

It was one of the best beers I made!

Of course I am thinking of all those struggling for Black lives, but also those struggling for trans people, especially Black and brown trans folks, as well as all the immigrants documented and otherwise

Fuck borders, fuck gender enforcement, abolish ICE, abolish carceral values and systems
MLK was only 39 when he was killed. Growing up, I thought that was old. But I’m 43 now and I’m stunned by the burden he shouldered at such a young age. I’m also a lot more aware of how hard it is, at any age, to carry the hopes and dreams of an oppressed people on your shoulders, as so many do.

Hey its MLK day and I want to say is

Please give your black queer folks money and support. Let them live and give them as much forgiveness and grace as you give a ex-right winger white person. Please stop putting unrealistic expectations on them

If there's one empirical insight I'd want everyone to understand about American politics, it's this:

America's problems are solved problems. Just not here.

What would change if the US simply matched the average of 31 peer democracies? Not Denmark or Norway. Just the middle of the pack. 🧵

it feels like people in the US who don't have that sort of background often make the mistake of thinking the right wing as like solely coming from some kind of backwater conservative christian tradition, instead of what it is really about - which is just being vibes-based and lacking empathy.

As always, I recommend revisiting the Letter from a Birmingham Jail. He’s an audio recording of MLK reading the text

On PBS tonight 10 PM eastern: "Martin Luther King and the FBI"
For years before Martin Luther King Jr.’s death, he was subjected to a campaign of intimidation by J. Edgar Hoover's FBI. This reveals the depth of Hoover's vendetta against King and examines how/why he targeted the civil rights leader.
