No, Speaker Johnson: The No Kings Rally on October 18 is not a “hate America” rally. Quite the contrary. It’s a rally of millions of people who believe in American freedom and are not going to allow you and President Trump to turn us into an authoritarian country.

On Labor Day, we rise together. While billionaires buy up our government, we’re coming together to demand a country that puts workers first.

This article is an excellent guide to what you can and should be doing right now. Many people seem to think that fascism is a switch that gets flipped, but it's really a machine that the government needs to keep feeding quarters into. Your job is to exhaust the state until they quit.
America is no longer descending into fascism. We are seconds away from impact

“We’re being chased by guys with guns… They acted like vigilantes.”

That’s what humanitarian aid workers screamed to Border Patrol in Sasabe, AZ—while plainclothes Homeland Security agents pointed rifles at them.

And what did Border Patrol do?
They helped detain them at gunpoint.

I don't know who needs to know this, but Pro Publica has an online thing that will format a letter to your US health insurance company to demand the records behind a claim denial. (which the insurance is then legally required to provide in most cases)

I've done a lot of work with Sen. Warren's office in the last few weeks in particular, they've been fighting this harder than anyone else I've seen in the Senate, doing the work to push for as many possible creative ways to fight back. The grief on her face is real.
After 26 hours of fighting on the Senate floor, Republicans voted to rip health care from millions of people and let little babies go hungry. And they cheered.

I'm angry. You should be too. But this fight isn't over.

🚨 ICE disappeared a woman on Wednesday night. She was grabbed by men in plainclothes and taken to an unidentified location.

ICE is refusing to say where she is being held. It’s 72 hours later and not even a dedicated team of lawyers can find her.

This is WRONG. We can’t let this be the new norm.

When you take away rights from some groups, you open the door to taking away rights from everyone.

In my time in the Senate I've never seen a Senator treated this way. @padilla.senate.gov is carrying out his constitutional responsibility to conduct oversight and defend the people he represents. Absolutely shocking and disgusting way to handle a sitting member of Congress.
Wow. California Sen. Alex Padilla is wrestled and detained by federal officers after showing up to DHS Sec. Kristi Noem's press conference in LA. (video from Bill Melugin of Fox News)

IMPORTANT! PLEASE READ AND SHARE!
Trump/MAGA are doing all they can to intimidate. Peacefully protest. Walk away from violence or any direct conflict. They have proven they will not follow the law so proactively be safe. #nokings #June14 #saveourdemocracy
🚨 KNOW YOUR RIGHTS

Attending a protest? STOP what you're doing now & make this graphic your cell phone background.

In 🇺🇸, you have the RIGHT to air public grievances & demand change.

Please share: ICE uses ruses to gain access to people AND to get information about their targets from community members. Know your rights. Know that you don’t have to answer ANY questions by any type of law enforcement. Don’t help ICE! #UnmaskICE

🧵The graphics in this thread could save a life.
ICE, HSI, & CBP are detaining people without cause aka kidnapping, refusing to ID themselves, and violating constitutional rights.
We must protect our people.

Share these graphics.

Help our communities know their rights—and use them.
