I doubt anyone will see this but I don’t want to hear a goddamn PEEP out of a SINGLE non-voter / #protest #voter / insert #purity test person. We are all eating #Project2025 shit sandwiches because you couldn’t tell the difference between Harris (Biden) & the fucking orange felon. #democracy

“we’re nullifying the Voting Rights Act and fair housing and employment laws by non-enforcement” sounds a lot worse than “we’re ending DEI” but it’s the same thing

Julian Sanchez @normative.bsky.social · Jan 23

I think at this point “DEI” as a label is, like “woke,” just uselessly vague and mostly functions as a disingenuous package deal to let people obfuscate what, concretely, they’re opposing (or supporting, for that manner.

Great, but even easier……if anyone see ICE in the area they should start blasting on their police whistles!

Californians who want to help stop Trump's power grab, vote YES on PROP. 50. If you haven't already received your ballot, it should be coming in the next few days. Vote YES and return your ballot ASAP before November 4. Let's fight back and defend democracy!

So cool that whenever someone asks the president, “did you eat the Lindbergh baby” he’s like, “no but I’d be allowed to, I have the right to, I might do it later”

Pritzker: "He said he was going after the worst of the worst. It's not going after the worst of the worst when you're just literally stopping children who happen to be brown & asking them for papers as if they're gonna have proof they're a citizen. Pull out your phones and film everything you see"

This video of Chicagoans intervening to save a man from being abducted off the streets by ICE is making the rounds on Instagram.

Totally normal for a sitting US President to call for jailing a sitting US Governor and sitting US mayor.

Nothing to see here.

At what point will Americans decide they need to forcefully remove officials of the current leadership class. Keep an eye on Chicago. They seem most likely to put up a fight that DC couldn't and CA won't. If the line isn't drawn here it never will.
