Photo by Pierre Lavie. Yes this is me. And I threw my Leica. It landed on the bass plate with hardly a scratch. Another Photographer grabbed it along with my phone and I was able to track him later. I was held face down tear gas deployed right in front of me and pepper sprayed directly into the eye.

61% of Idahoans voted for expanded Medicaid in 2018. NO Idahoans voted for $50m in tax credits for private education (vouchers)! Repeal the tax breaks #idleg bullied through in 2025!
This year seems different — since the state is facing multimillion projected budget shortfalls after years of tax cuts, Idaho’s DOGE committee recommended repeal, and even Idaho House Speaker Mike Moyle is open to the idea. #idleg #idpol

Over 100 members of Congress have mounted replicas of a plaque honoring the police officers who defended the U.S. Capitol during the January 6th insurrection outside their offices -- because House Speaker Mike Johnson has disgracefully refused to install the official one.

I think it is probably a bad idea to put clearly unhinged, angry psychopaths in federal law enforcement positions.

Weird to be commemorating the 250th anniversary of the Am Rev while living under a government that has a) sent armed troops to occupy cities perceived to be too rebellious, b) rendered largely irrelevant the representative branch of government, and c) claimed imperial right to rule other countries.

Trump has made it clear he regards himself as president only of the people who voted for him. But that’s not how the Constitution works. Nor is it how American democracy works.
The Constitution Prohibits Trump’s War on Blue States
This will be one of the major legal fights to come in the Trump regime.

Instead of repealing voucher give-aways that sunk the budget in the first place. If your gvt listens to lobbyists more than its electorate, it is the electorate’s responsibility to VOTE THEM OUT!

Trump says he will force Venezuela to hand over millions of barrels of sanctioned oil, which the U.S. will sell off under his control.

Hello? This is naked extortion of a sovereign country. It’s far past time for Congress to grow a spine and rein in our tinpot dictator.

Since 1886, Lady Liberty has stood through world wars, depression, terrorism, & corruption. She is the best of us.
Despite the chaos, we owe it to the world to follow her example & stand defiant in the storm, shining a light that guides others to safety.
We must - now - more than ever.
