I’m running for Congress in NY-12, my home.

We have a demented, criminal president running the country like a mob operation—government by the boss, for the boss.

We need Democratic fighters who will defend the rule of law and deliver government by the people. Join us.

Fairly sure it’s unintentional, but the end date on this mug being sold by the Smithsonian does make it sound a little like they’re saying America dies in 2026…

I thought creating an Only Fans account starring close-up shots of Donald Trump's neck vagina would be a fun-tastic way to make a little performance art in the sex work game, but alas, it was flagged and rejected.

SCOOP: The Trump DOJ is preparing to eliminate the ability of U.S. Attorneys to recuse themselves from cases due to conflicts of interest.

A new rule expected to be filed this week will put that power in the hands of Pam Bondi.
DOJ Moves to Eliminate Attorney Recusals in Sweeping Power Shift
Proposed rule would strip prosecutors of ethical independence and place conflict decisions solely in the hands of the attorney general

Honestly, this normalization of the 2nd Trump’s administration fascism is getting to me, I can’t just distract myself by watching AI slop or watching reels. I’m honestly concerned because it’ll get worse and we’re scarily indifferent to unite and solve the root causes of this sociopolitical crisis.

Paying people to incentivize racial domestic terror, what could go wrong?
Next, they’ll start paying people to accuse their neighbors of anti-government actions, and voila, Gestapo.

This is (*checks notes*) after a Federal District Judge ordered them not to use chemical weapons on observers.

ICE is a collection of lawless, cruel, racist thugs. Defund them, and prohibit their non-elected federal employment for the next 20 years.
It's cool that these guys just use pepper spray casually now, against people who are wholly within their rights, without a moment's hesitation. Several shots of them using it as they climb into their cars and drive away, not even a pretense of urgency or need. Just a parting "fuck you" to them.
This is what happened in our neighborhood yesterday. ICE snatched a human being off of our streets, roughed them up badly, and then pepper sprayed legal observers as they documented it all. This is a daily occurrence happening all throughout Minnesota right now.

We've got so many great heritage/GLAM accounts here now, that some are flying under the radar

From national organisations to niche collections, these active accounts are all (at time of posting) under 500 followers-lowest at 9-how many can we get over 500?

MN & other locations:

ICE believe they're above the law. A Fed judge just ordered that they cannot deploy chemical agents at peaceful protesters. Again.

Even if all you do is go to a hardware store & get a very good dust mask & goggles, it will help. Also, it'll make you unidentifiable. Like them
