ICE took my friend today.

Please tell people not to go to their immigration hearings in Austin.

They took my friend today.

Sending a man with one lung to CECOT? While he's still recovering from surgery no doubt? Yep. Trump did that.

"What sets these [Los Angeles] raids apart from typical civil enforcement actions was their military-style execution, experts say." — Al Jazeera

Yesterday. In the US. 44 people taken from their jobs + untold others lured to "immigration meetings."

Of course he would. He’s a Republican, and Republicans suppress truth.
Black history is history.

Rep. Dextor (OR), para.: "In 2025, I can't believe I have to come to the House floor to fight for a woman's right to vote."

Rep. Vindman (VA) "I rise today to congratulate the Fredricksburg Nationals on winning their first ever..."

Both Democrats.
Virginia... what are we doing?

House Democrats who voted FOR the SAVE ACT:
Jared Golden (ME)
Marie Gluesenkamp Perez (WA)
Ed Case (HI)
Henry Cuellar (TX)

I think we deserve an explanation.

The House passed the SAVE Act, which attempts to disenfranchise many MARRIED people, including MARRIED women & MARRIED LGBTQ people who have changed their names by, as written, requiring most to produce a passport to register to vote. This is an unneeded poll tax to the tune of $165 every 10 yrs.

With this ring, I thee give up my right to freely vote.

Hi there! Create the State is a creative project that I'm working on as a poet and nonfiction writer. I'm curious as to what sort of community/neighborhood/region/state/nation YOU would like to live in, if you could wave a magic wand and make this place anything you wanted it to be?

Roanoke, VA neighbors, join me 4/18 & 4/19.Bring signs that call for help for those who have been harmed: the immigrant, people of color, LGBTQ, the working poor, women, elderly, federal workers, students, teachers, etc. Saturday, wear black and bring a blanket or mat to sit on.
