🌀 Welcome, Everyone

We’re here to build a force of love, conviction, and peace.

We hold each other up.
And we hold the line.

Let’s be clear. Let’s be kind. Let’s be unstoppable.
Authoritarianism. Oligarchy. Imperialism.
They are shaped by daily choices.
By what we allow.
By what we excuse.
By what we leave unnamed.
WE ARE STILL HUMAN

"You have a constitutional obligation to remove, to impeach and to remove executive officials who are committing high crimes and misdemeanors. That is your job...this is an obligation."

George Conway explains why he would be in favor of impeaching Trump if elected to Congress.

@chrislhayes.bsky.social: “A 37-year-old American citizen, the mother of a young child is dead tonight. She was shot in the face by an agent of the federal government, and that government has spent the day telling despicable lies about her.”

You and your wife drop your 6-year-old off at school. You just moved here. You see ICE terrorizing your new neighbors. You film them, as is your legal right. Your wife complies with orders. She is then shot in the head. You still have to pick up your child later today.

This could be you.

I can’t thank the National Lawyers Guild enough— @nlgnews.bsky.social has boots on the ground and has been nothing short of amazing during this moment of crisis.

I can confirm my husband was protesting peacefully before apprehended.

Thanks for all the kind words. I finally heard from my husband who is safe. He is being detained and it is not clear why he was detained or even if charges will be pressed.

Please pray for my family and if you can, reach out to your representatives and senators about this assault on our freedoms.

Juan has recently been released. Without charge.

He was detained, all day in a cell, simply for standing at a protest.

Thank you everyone for your overwhelming support and thank you to my senators for your support.

I will post more tomorrow but need to be with family tonight 🙏

JUST NOW: Bernie tells the crowd about Trump attacking Iran, the crowd erupts into “NO MORE WAR!” chants

Bernie calls the attack “grossly unconstitutional”

Both things cannot be true.

Trump’s bragging about “complete success” while Iran claims it evacuated its nuclear sites, moved the materials, and kept the scientists working. Iran concluded they would be bombed back in March.

If this is a win, what does failure look like?

Trump is considering suspending habeas corpus — a core constitutional right — just because he doesn’t like losing in court. That’s not national security. It’s authoritarianism.

We must resist.

The WH says Trump is considering suspending habeas corpus. What would that mean?
The move to expel migrants would curtail a constitutional right to due process.
