The Land of Lincoln DSA is on Bluesky now, by popular demand! And by popular, I mean a couple people asked about it. But hey, since we're here, we might as well mingle! If you're DSA-curious, get in touch with us!
Land of Lincoln DSA is holding a protest this Friday at the headquarters of the Sangamon County GOP. Got something you wanna say to the bastards who sold our lives and planet down the river to a dying fascist billionaire, than say it this Friday, and make damn sure you say it loud.

Some good news for everybody, cause we could all really use it.
For the record: I lived in Africa for 11 years. There is no such thing as an "unprovoked attack" by an herbivore. Cape buffalo have a very low tolerance for predators looking at them the wrong way. www.expressnews.com/news/texas/a...

We must oppose Israeli aggression against Iran. A war against Iran would hurt working-class people both here and in Iran. There must be no war against Iran.

There's a non-zero chance that ICE is hiring bounty hunters in order to achieve Steven Miller's insane 3000 deportations a day number. And we know people are impersonating ICE agents (and cops) in order to extort people.
Stay safe out there.
