General Strike Tennessee Chapter @gsus-tennessee.bsky.social · May 12

Sharing this very important thread again about how we (looking at you, white allies) can act against ICE, but this time as images to make it easy to share across platforms.

Make sure every ally sees this.
#AbolishICE #OnYourSide

Every extra hour that ICE spends facing off with activists is an hour they can't spend kidnapping other people.

Every extra minute ICE has to spend contingency planning around activists and neighbors, every extra officer ICE has to put on a kidnap squad, is a drain on their efficiency.

More states are standing up in quiet ways like the east and west coast health alliance. I’d love to hear more governors speak out.

Two big GOP activists from Oregon were in DC last month for meetings with Trump admin officials. On their podcast they talk about a plan they discussed to nullify the results of Oregon's 2026 federal elections. Pass federal voter ID law, then refuse to seat OR delegation because OR didn't comply.

Also, we proposed a idea how to do a end run on vote by mail. Concept is based on what Trump proposed. When you vote, you check everyone's citizenship as well as voter ID.
In a vote by mail state, you might be able to check citizenship during voter registration. You can send copies of your passport and your birth certificate in.
How in the world are you going to check our voters?
Voter ID, right? Vote by mail. So that creates a problem for Oregon.
But if federal government new requirement is to check both, and if Oregon can comply with the requirements, what would happen to our election result? I'm talking about the entire federal delegation.
For federal elections, we're talking about only federal elections.

So entire federal delegation, congressmen and senators could be challenged, could be unseated because you didn't follow federal requirements to elect them. So I said the trade-off is worth it. You know why?
Democrats control two Senate seats out of six congressional seats. We only control one. They control five.
You talk about trade-off, right?
COMMON SENSE

Works for me 🤷🏻‍♀️ imagine actually working on behalf of your constituents. That a novel idea. Ofc, we’ll see….

Burn it down MTG 🔥 Find the courage. They already hate you because you’re a woman. You have millions from your time in Congress. Go for it! (Cautiously optimistic here.)

Ok, idk what’s up with Candace, but I love seeing the right splinter. First MTG, now this. It’s like a dumpster fire.

feralcat @feralcat.bsky.social · 11h

We know why. Apparently it’s a Neo Reich requirement.

Yes, this is what the article said. I grew up with typewriters (😂) so I’m learning.

Marjorie Taylor Greene on extending ACA credits: It is hurting so many people... let's take off our Democrat jerseys, let's take off our Republican jerseys, and we should do something responsible for the American people and fix this.

‘The simplest way to see if the bag is working is to put your phone in it and then try to call it from another device. If the call gets through, then you know the bag isn't working properly’

From the article. Thank you. Answers some of my questions.

I thought Faraday bags were not secure enough. I’d love to be told otherwise.

feralcat @feralcat.bsky.social · 11h

Yeah, but they can track you at your home. I’m thinking the way the fbi has visited dissenters for posts. Or, maybe this is not related, but the veteran of Afghanistan war arrested at his house for ‘organizing’ a protest.

feralcat @feralcat.bsky.social · 11h

Does anyone know the tool or the seller? And @aclu.org or anyone here know if individual states can block this. (Maybe not because it’s federal?)
