Donald Trump just unilaterally bombed Iran. A masked gang is terrorizing our streets. America has rapidly devolved into an authoritarian state.
That's why, today, The Onion has purchased a full page ad in today's New York Times with a simple plea to Congress:

In the spring of 2008, I feared America was on the verge of war with Iran — and, believing that it’s good style to get to know people before you bomb them, I made “Rick Steves’ Iran,” a one-hour special that could (and would) only debut on PBS. Sadly, this special has become pertinent again today.

Dylan Fugel on Les Blank's polka documentary, IN HEAVEN THERE IS NO BEER?:

They're called public records for a reason. Starting today, WIRED will *stop paywalling* articles that are primarily based on public records obtained through the Freedom of Information Act, becoming the first publication to partner with @freedom.press to offer this for our new coverage.
Wired is dropping paywalls for FOIA-based reporting. Others should follow
As the administration does its best to hide public records from the public, Wired magazine is stepping up to help stem the secrecy

Some things you can do. No one can do all these things, but most people can do at least one:
Feed people. There's work for you at Food Not Bombs or whatever you got going on where are.
Join a local cop watch, ICE watch, or rapid response group.
Who's being targeted in your area? Have their back.
