Everyone should call their local election officials and ask them what they're doing to prepare. Our governors should deploy the Guard to protect polling places from voting machine and ballot seizures.
Sen. Adam Schiff (D-CA) to ABC about Trump: "I think he intends to try to subvert the elections. He will do everything he can to suppress the vote. If he loses the vote -- I think the Republicans now expect they will get a drubbing in the midterms -- he will take action to overturn the result"

Not schools.
Not hospitals.

I couldn't hate this regime more. When we get back control, there need to be lots of trials, prison time, and maybe the ultimate penalty for these thugs.

They’re breaking, it’s getting bad enough now that there’s no way they can last another three years. They cannot sustain this level of insanity. We MUST keep pushing.

In Minneapolis, people are literally singing resistance before marching to the hotels where ICE agents are staying—inviting them to defect and join us in solidarity. It’s an action rooted in compassion, courage, and collective humanity. Transforming fear into shared power.

I'm keeping the U.S. election calendar in my profile in case anyone forgets where to find it online. It features many lesser-known elections. My Pinned post has tips about some calendar features.

Floored by this story. A man wrote a pollite email to a federal prosecutor objecting to the deportation of an Afghan seeking asylum. DHS responded with an administrative warrant to get the man's info from Google, then visited his home to intimidate him.

Heartbreaking.💔 I really hope this story doesn't end tragically. I can't imagine how devastated I would be if anything like this had happened to my mom.

I don't usually pray, but I'm praying for a happy ending to this story.

But instead, she spent a heart-wrenching day in Tucson, supporting the massive search for her 84-year-old mother.

Predicting that this week we’ll hear more conciliatory words from the Administration regarding Minnesota (since they’re starting to realize that ICE has become politically toxic) but everyone outside of Minnesota needs to know that nothing on the ground has changed.

ICE agents took her mother when she went to work, trying to make money for diapers.

“We’d be in a far worse place without the mass protests in Minneapolis, Chicago, LA, and across the country. Protest doesn’t bring instant change, but it disrupts authoritarian power and reminds everyone this isn’t normal. We have to keep showing up. We have to keep protesting.”

Good to see that many Dem elected officials now want to be seen getting involved in the cases of immigrants who have been wrongly detained by ICE.

Let's spare a word for @vanhollen.senate.gov, who did this for Kilmar Abrego Garcia back when wise pundits said this was politically dangerous.
