Lawyers for ICE are increasingly hiding their identities in court. This is completely unprecedented.
“We’re not really doing names publicly,” said Judge ShaSha Xu — after stating her own name and those of the immigrants and their lawyers.

Not to be corny, but I have genuinely loved this aspect of Zohran and Brad Lander's dynamic. So much of this primary was so ugly and cynical, and they refused to give into that. I want more of this energy, all across the country.

i think it should be illegal to make anyone deliver anything in this level of heat (106, feels like 113). And if its 100% necessary like medical stuff or something then pay the delivery ppl like 10x what theyd normally be paid. and give everyone else a paid day off. i dont need my package rn

“Never vote for someone you hate.”
i.e. do not rank anyone who you would not ~~actually want in office~~
so if there are only three or four candidates you could actually stand, rank only those three or four (rather than filling out all five with candidates you don’t really like)

Especially if you're on the fence about it, protest today. Fascism is isolating and lonely. Its very goal is to make you feel like you're the only person unwilling to accept a cult of personality. On days like today you fully realize there are more of us than there are them. You will feel better.
