Yeah, felt. Its getting harder and harder to keep it together. It's okay to have a little breakdown every now and then, as a treat.

Remember the real enemy in all this

Robert Reich @rbreich.bsky.social · Jul 13

Remember: The oligarchs who control our economy and democracy seek to divide us so they can become more powerful.

They want us to turn on each other so we don't look up and see where all the wealth and power have gone.

Don't fall for it.

ACLU lawyers accomplished this class action suit blocking Trump’s unconstitutional EO that has tried to abolish birthright citizenship. The ACLU is fighting every illegal move by the Trump administration. It’s never too late to set up a recurring donation, however small: www.aclu.org

Chicago is winning 🙌

Finally saw one of these beauties in the wild

A flyer taped to a pole. The is designed to resemble those annoying ones for garage repairs that are always taped to garages around here. It reads: Hello ICE. Total chumps. Lonely nazis. Your sick job makes you trash! What ruined you? Can't find love? Is it worth it to ruin people? Chinga la migra. Chicago hates U. For fuhrer assistance call 1-773-EAT-CACA. The beautiful things in this city are not for you. No one asked for your "help" okay? Thnx bye.

It's followed by information about ICIRR in Spanish and a phone number: 1-855-435-7693

“Just leave the country” is not a solution to fascism.

A large number of people can’t even leave their city or state

They’re trapped in legislative poverty. They’re disabled. They have families they can’t uproot or leave behind

The reasons are endless, but make no mistake, leaving is a privilege

The oligarchy's power comes from their wealth. Their wealth comes from our work. We can end the horrors, but we have to get organized.

Ranked #2 in social on the App Store. Do your due diligence before downloading random apps though

You’ve probably heard about the free app, ICEblock. The developer, Joshua Aaron, saw the need &, BOOM!

Pam Bondi has her panties in a twist over it. “We are looking at him…& he better watch out.”

This #CupOfJoe goes to Joshua, for his innovative, helpful app.
