I am sharing a Palestinian account every day and today is Ahmed. Ahmed is the father of a 2 year old daughter, Julia but also takes care of his mother, grandmother and several nieces and nephews. He currently has a leg injury that he’s worried if he doesn’t get treated may lead to amputation.

I am sharing a Palestinian account every day and today is Mohammed. Mohammed is a nurse who learned German because he hoped to immigrate to Germany as a nurse (his German is probably better than mine). He lost his home and is trying to provide for his parents and extended family. Help if you can ❤️

So now they are arresting people accused of no crimes who are lawful residents of the United States.

Wow.
This development is a horrifying and further escalation of the very topic I wrote about yesterday evening: The Trump administration’s move from governmental changes to individual attacks focused on political opponents. www.lawdork.com/p/trump-test...

a cloture vote for the way-harder-to-undo-than-an-executive-order federal anti-trans sports ban is now set for monday. that means there's more time to make calls.

no on cloture means it doesn't get a vote. the GOP needs 7 dems to advance it.

please call. there is *so* much evil downstream of this.

ALERT! It just broke that tomorrow, the Senate will attempt a procedural vote on a transgender sports ban.

It will take 7 Democrats breaking rank in order to have enough votes to pass cloture.

Democrats held very strong in the House and only lost two votes.

CALL YOUR DEMS! (info in next post)
Senate sets up vote to restrict trans women from women's sports
The House passed similar legislation in January.

I try to keep commentary on Palestine out of my shares of the day but I gotta say I’d love to see a Zionist justification for bombing a fucking ice cream shop
I’m sharing a Palestinian account every day and today is Mahmoud. Mahmoud ran an ice cream shop before the war that he had worked very hard building and was his only source of income. It was completely destroyed. He is hoping to rebuild it and bring ice cream back to the children of Gaza ❤️ 🍦

The West Bank is under attack. Missile strikes. Mass arrests. Escalated occupation presence. Metal gates at village entrances. Pogroms by settlers. Palestinians never get a moment to breathe.

As Trump takes office & pledges mass deportations, here is a shareable film series written *by immigrants for immigrants* on how to safely defend against ICE.

The first of four: 🚨If ICE is outside your door, don’t panic. Don’t open the door. Ask to see a warrant. ICE can’t enter w/o one. Part 1:

"You don't need to have legal papers or be a U.S. citizen to help others," he said. "When you support someone, you strengthen your union with them. When you stop and ask if they could use a hand, they'll remember that."

I hope we all remember and never forget #LAFire ❤️‍🩹

Many Latino immigrants in Los Angeles worked to extinguish some of the fires with hoses. They aren't firefighters, they were just helping people in other neighborhoods.
As Los Angeles burned, Latino immigrants rushed in to put out fires

Meta is now completely censoring searches for the terms "trans" and "transgender" etc. on Threads.

So much for free speech and free expression.
