They just tear-gassed us. They tried to run us over in a van holding a peaceful protester. They shot us with pepper balls. They dragged another protester into the facility.
moments ago, ice agents again came out of the broadview detention/“professing” facility to escort a silver suv out of the lot.
one of the agents picked up and threw congressional candidate kat abughazaleh to the ground.

I’m not sure why this pops in my mind in context of all this madness, but it’s all quite insane to me, as life with fully unmasked predators should feel, so the Timothy Morton quote seems apropos.

Why did Trump have himself put in charge of the Kennedy Center?
Because he knows that the educated and cultured people who patronize it despise him.
So he seeks revenge. And he knows that his being in charge of the center will destroy it.

We can’t say this enough: When people in Trump‘s orbit deliberately lie about how our constitutional democracy works, they violate the oaths they take to uphold the law. & they violate the trust the American people place in them.

How is stopping NIH funding making Americans safer? Instead it is part of the tech billionaires' war on academic institutions, truth, science, and our health. We deserve better.
The National Institutes of Health has dramatically changed its grant-making terms by limiting how much it will disperse for costs such as equipment and administration.

Acting FBI director Brian Driscoll, who is not seen as a MAGA guy, is being lauded within the FBI for forcefully pushing back on a plan for mass firings of J6 agents. But many worry he himself will be fired.
