Words to die for?

No: love, justice, kindness, courage, honesty, wokeness are all words and ways to live or to die for, but not these ugly thoughts!

As always, please remember to have your legal counsel's info on your person when protesting.
If you're protesting ICE in Chicago, let me know at sheryl@weikallaw.com if you need free legal training or legal support. If you're arrested protesting ICE, I can represent you pro bono. Email me at sheryl@weikallaw.com. As always, I will take as many cases as I can.

Not for nothing, but I told y'all:

There is no seat at the table of supremacy for Black & Brown people.

*unless you buy one*

I see one brotha in this video, and he's the "help."

They love that brownskin service.

NEW: Trump has targeted political foes — including Federal Reserve governor Lisa Cook — for claiming more than one primary residence on their loan papers.

But ProPublica found that at least three of the president’s Cabinet members have done the same thing.

The President of the United States just essentially declared a war on Chicago because — wait for it! — Black and Brown people live here.

This is not normal. This is not okay. And we are going to fucking fight back.

This is an actual exchange from a VP who took an oath to defend the constitution and, as a citizen, is expected to abide by the law.

May we one day have accountability for the grotesque lawlessness of this regime.

The president of the United States just declared war, actual military war, not a metaphorical one, on a major American city, and one governed by his political opponents.

In any other period, this would be impeachment-worthy.

So grateful for the clear, unequivocal witness and voice of Rep. @maxwellfrost.bsky.social who visited the horrifying detention camp in Florida. As he said, “I didn’t see any Russians who’ve overstayed their visas. Only Black & Latino men who look like me.” @maddow.msnbc.com

Trump promised to lower costs, but his first 6 months have done the opposite.

Trump’s Tariffs are raising prices, hurting workers and businesses. And Republicans’ Big Ugly Law will drive up health care, grocery, and energy costs even more.

Americans deserve better.

THIS is what courage looks like.Today, striking farmworkers bravely stood in front of cameras, the community, and the press, risking their jobs, safety, and future. To speak the truth. About the stolen wages. About the years of being unheard.
This is a movement. And today was a turning point.

CORRUPT SCOTUS will allow it.

A man who sleeps with an “underage girl” is rap*ng a child and a ped0phile.

A man who participates in “forceful s*x” is actually called rap3, and being a rap*st.

For some reason predators want to ignore the terminology and reject who they are. Label them, shame them. Call them out.

If you’re buying Alligator Alcatraz merch like it’s a joke, spend that money on books instead.

If history makes you uncomfortable, good. That means you’re still human.

If you can’t stomach what governments did to civilians in the past, maybe stop cheering while it’s happening in the here and now.
