Something to keep in mind as we head into 2026. Quote is from JRR Tolkien Lord of The Rings. The quote concludes: “There’s some good in this world, Mr Frodo, and it’s worth fighting for”.

Hey, elected leaders, unless you are actively trying to stop the daily violence and unconstitutional entries, searches, detentions, by ICE on our streets, then you are ENDORSING the terror Americans are feeling at the hands of these untrained, unrestrained, masked, mob of government employees.

This is a 10 minute listen. And well worth your time.
Dr. @timothysnyder.bsky.social has written many powerful works, but this one stopped me dead in my tracks when I first read it. Please take the time, and share widely.

And now the FBI is taking complete control of the investigation. We all know the fix is in. These goons can act without any fear of accountability. Imagine what they’re doing to all the people they’ve taken into custody far from any witnesses.
Straight up murder.

If we're going to spiral into a budget crisis, can we at least be trying to help regular Idahoans while we're at it, instead of tax cuts and school vouchers for the rich?

Trans Day of Remembrance is a somber reminder of the impacts pervasive transphobia and an epidemic of violence bring to our trans community. Our gender identity should never make us a target.
This day also reminds us of our responsibility to keep each other safe and speak out against injustice.

Reminds me of this slogan I saw: I like my Democracy the way I like my whiskey. Neat. No ICE.
The right-wing group Idaho Liberty Dogs is calling on their followers to counter an "ICE Out of Idaho" event in Boise on Sunday, November 2nd.
The event, hosted by local DSA, 50501, and PSL chapters, is a peaceful action denouncing the Wilder, Idaho raid that took place on Sunday, October, 19th.

A law was passed a long time ago to place a plaque on the wall to honor the officers who defended the Capitol on J6. The plaque is done and has been ready to hang up for a long time. MAGA Mike refuses to comply with that law, which is a slap in the face to every officer. bsky.app/profile/atru...

@acluidaho.bsky.social having an attorney with bullhorn at rallies is a great way to ensure our rights are protected.
This!

I think Democrats should implement this nationwide at all protests.
A competent attorney with a bullhorn directly communicating to law enforcement and the surrounding cameras.
This is a VERY smart idea.

17-year-old Stephen Miller is sitting in the back of a school bus talking about torture, as in “Torture is a celebration of human life and dignity."
Miller looks directly into the camera and describes the torturing Iraqis in gruesome detail, as his peers laugh uncomfortably.
