I visited the apartment building ICE raided on Tuesday today. Story to come, but you can walk right in. Half of the apartments have no doors on them. Children's stuff abandoned in some flats. *Citizen* residents told me they were arrested and held for hours in zipties. This is America

Being trans in the US is certainly An Experience ™️ and I would really appreciate if that could just stop maybe? Like idk maybe just let us live our lives and not throw our rights farther down the drain because a cishet white man shot another cishet white man. Fucking christ this is all bleak

If/when Gavin Newsom becomes the DNC nominee for president in 2028, I won’t vote for him. I refuse to vote for a transphobe. I refuse to vote for someone who so openly hates the unhoused. I refuse to vote for someone who willingly funds genocides. Fuck Gavin Newsom. And fuck anyone who supports him.

Organize your communities in such a way that you do not need to rely on government services and it can withstand assault. If your community ever needs to protest they are going to come hard and fast now. This gets worse from here.

He wants a domestically deployable army he can send anywhere whose citizens he's angry at, instantly and without gubernatorial agreement. The currently imagined size of this army—600—doesn't matter. It's a test run for creating a force closer to 50,000 in size. www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...
Pentagon plan would create military ‘reaction force’ for civil unrest

Disbanding ICE and prosecuting everyone from at least middle management up remains the moderate response. I'm not a moderate tho, I think everyone on their payroll needs a referral to the Hague
We can protect national security and public safety — the reasons why ICE was created in the first place — while minimizing cruelty, especially to children.

just to be clear, I also disagree with Pete Buttigieg's vocal support for Israel's genocide in Gaza, his cozyness with Silicon Valley billionaires, his milquetoast economic politics and his undying love for police and policing as a solution to most problems. but do go on
If you’re willing to cancel Pete Buttigieg because you disagree with one thing he said, your level of intolerance is off the charts. We need to be able to disagree with others without writing them off.

The FTC is seeking public comment about gender affirming care in order to go after providers and restrict access. Share your stories instead of how this care has helped you and how it is life saving.
We need to counteract their false narratives. Please share!

Yet another reminder that no, the democrats really aren’t on our side. They will happily throw our rights to the wood chipper if they think it’ll win them an election. The major parties in America are not a question of fascism vs anti-fascism. It’s just fascism speed run vs fascism but slow.
