For anybody who thinks being a U.S. citizen will save them, or that being white will save them, this is a blonde white woman who is a US citizen and the thugs took her too.
Anyway, for the 80 billionth time, stand up for everybody’s rights
Agents in Key Largo, Florida ripped this woman wearing medical scrubs out of her car as she screamed she is a US citizen. Agents cuffed her and put her in one of their cars.

She was eventually let go, per David Goodhue of the Miami Herald, who also took this footage:

Don't forget that Zohran Mamdani spent his entire campaign standing proudly beside the trans community. He went to trans rights rallies just to show support. He proudly waved trans rights flags without hesitation. He refused to back down in support of trans rights. That makes me happy.

In the three majority-Native districts in Alaska, the 'no' to repealing RCV won 64% to 36%, netting 2,960 votes.

Statewide, the 'no' only won by 664 votes.

This was not a coincidence, but result of plenty of organizing, & work by Native leaders: boltsmag.org/alaska-measu...

Alaska’s predominantly Native regions delivered huge margins against repealing the state’s new elections system, despite facing continued logistical challenges to voting.

Please read this. According to their account, the family did NOT want the police there. They tried hard to deescalate the situation. But 911 would not send an ambulance without the police. This is the exact catastrophe the family tried to avoid.

Palestinian-American student Kinnan Abdalhamid was on a walk with his childhood friends, Tahseen Ali Ahmad and Hisham Awartani, wearing kuffiyehs when they were shot at in Nov '23 in VT. Hisham is now paralyzed from the waist down.

Kinnan writes @teenvogue.bsky.social to call for a ceasefire.
