I live in Spokane. The government action last night resulted in 30 arrests. We have graduations, Pride, and a No Kings event happening on Saturday. I’m begging protesters to be so peaceful. Make them the bad guys. Wave our American flag proudly. Please. Let’s be smart.

So unnecessary. And unAmerican. And unwelcoming.
Smoke bombs drift over the field during the Velocity match. Maybe next time Spokane PD can figure out which way the wind is blowing before letting off some of these.

My family has lived here for six generations. I couldn’t love my community more than I do right now nor be more heartbroken to see what is happening to free speech under this regime.

We are peaceful. They are violent. Stay strong, Spokane ❤️
The fired these off, maybe 20 minutes after the “we are peaceful” chants started. And here is the thing. They were absolutely peaceful.

BREAKING: Federal agents in plain clothes and unmarked cars tried to snatch 1st graders from LA elementary schools—told staff they had “parental consent.”
They lied. When pressed, they HID THEIR IDS. DHS admits they sent them. This wasn’t a welfare check. It was a test run for a police state.

I want to report some good news from LA:
ICE picked a hotel in Pasadena to be their headquarters for this side of the city. The residents of Pasadena (myself included) would not stand for this and protested all yesterday in front of the hotel until, eventually, the hotel kicked out ICE!!

Joyful noise from the Delta gate agent at Dulles today. He sang some Journey, Tears for Fears, and Bryan Adams before I had to board. Beautiful music in troubling times.

We are not in a fight between right and left anymore. This is a fight between Americans and those who would bend the knee to a king. If you care about the soul of this country, we have to stand for each other.

“I will not back down. I will not bow or scrape. I will never obey.”
I will use every tool at my disposal to protect this country from Trump. I will litigate to defend voting rights until there are no cases left to bring. I will speak out against authoritarianism until my last breath.
I will not back down. I will not bow or scrape. I will never obey.
I will not back down. I will not bow or scrape. I will never obey.
