Under normal circumstances my little piece of BlueSky would be filled with my various projects, DIY tips, silly dog antics, and stories of emergency room visits when I’ve inadvertently injured myself.
However, these are not normal circumstances.

In Monrovia, California, protesters are purchasing 17¢ ICE scrapers from Home Depot and immediately returning them to create long lines and slow down the entire store. Their aim is to disrupt sales and convey a message opposing ICE raids occurring in their neighborhood.

In the town of Wilton, NY, every town elected seat has been held by Republicans for twenty years.

There should be a setting on televisions that allows you to change the actual door bell sound with a person saying “ding dong!” like Roy Kent’s “whistle!” in Ted Lasso.
Yes I know that Universal Health Care is important but in 2028, my vote will go to the candidate who promises to ban the sound of doorbells from television advertising.

Women belong in the resistance.
A group of US women kicked out a Nazi, while a group of US men stood around doing nothing.
People around the world are noticing that it is women who are leading the fight against fascists in the US. Whether it is Nazis or ICE.

An ICE agent, who is being arrested for drunk driving and nearly killing his little kids & others, tries to stop the arrest by racially profiling the officers arresting him. Amazing to watch the courtesy given to him as he is belligerent and uncooperative

After spending 43 years in prison for a crime he didn't commit, evidence hidden by the prosecution reversed his conviction. Rather than finally enjoying freedom, ICE abducted him for deportation

During a military-style raid on a building in Chicago’s South Shore, one resident heard a knock on his door.
It wasn’t the feds — it was a mom and her 7-year-old daughter, pleading for help.
He let them hide in his unit for the next 3 days.

I knew Fox News was theater. I just didn't realize it was a repertory theater that recycles actors for different roles.
You'd think a company that had to pay $787,000,000 for deceiving its viewers would be a little more careful about blatantly continuing the practice.

#Kristi Noem/Troll said #Portland mayor and Gov #Kotek shut down 4 blocks around the #ICE facility in preparation for her visit. That is an OUTRIGHT LIE. I was there that day for a Dr appt at the clinic less than 4 blocks away. The purple on this map shows where the police taped off the streets.

Super interesting to see today, after growing up #Mormon (and subsequently leaving the Church and all organized religion) how almost everyone believes Mormons aren’t #Christian. Mormons would 1000% disagree with this opinion on their beliefs.
