This week was a good reminder that Trump can be beaten back. A grand jury rejected charges against Democratic lawmakers, immigration operations in Minnesota were scaled back, and the Pride flag went back up at Stonewall. With Trump’s approval slipping, there is real reason for optimism.
Our Wins Of The Week
Donald Trump’s attempts at diving us headlong into autocracy is being met with constant resistance from all sides.

More than three dozen Democratic senators have begun an independent inquiry into the EPA following a huge change in how the agency measures the health benefits of reducing air pollution that is widely seen as a major setback to US efforts to combat the climate crisis.

Bondi is complicit - she must be forced to resign - tried and convicted of treason and disbarred - she has lied under oath since the day she was vetted when she said the department would be partisan.

The #EpsteinFiles are evidence in a criminal case against adult pedophiles, rapists, & those complicit with them, in the sexual abuse of children. Be disgusted. Get mad. Follow the law. Prosecute these vile perpetrators of child abuse.

While Donald Trump is wrecking our alliances and dismantling the stable world America helped create, California will always be a trusted, reliable partner.
Instead of bending a knee to authoritarianism, California is proving that democracy remains our best bet for the future.

The @ACLU has filed a class action damages suit against federal & state officers over an Idaho immigration raid last October. 200 armed officers raided a horse-race festival, detaining 400 Latinos for 4 hrs. All adults & many teens ziptied & searched.

They’re two of hundreds of people we’re defending in court for being targeted in an unlawful militarized immigration raid.

This is not difficult to adjudicate. Intelligence on possible criminal behavior of an American citizen should go to the FBI and its counterintelligence professionals. If it’s BS, they can determine so, Tulsi Gabbard cannot. Failure to share it suggests a cover up.

ICE’s continuous harassment of schools, forcing parents to stand out in front of their children’s school every day, collapsing attendance, transforming schools into de facto aid distribution networks - for me, that’s probably their most unforgivable premeditated crime here in Minnesota
I've repeatedly used the Roosevelt HS case because it's so unexplainable.
Like, imagine the MPD was chasing a suspect and the chase took them through a high school at dismissal...
And then somehow they ended up getting into multiple scrums with students and arresting two teachers? What???
