What we're seeing at #handsoff protests nationwide today and what we saw at the ballot box on Tuesday are not unrelated. The public is furious. It will not be silenced. And those who side with Trump and Musk—or refuse to fight back—will be swept out of office.

When the tide finally turns and the cult starts sprinting away from this monster like they had nothing to do with him, I’m going to remember who propped him up, who swallowed the lies whole, and who traded decency for power and called it patriotism.

REMINDER: Wisconsin has same-day voter registration.
So, if you haven’t registered or recently moved or anything like that, you can register at your polling place (with ID and proof of residence) TODAY.
Every state should do this. It’s great that Wisconsin does this. Go vote.

For all the South gets shit about the failures of reconstruction, the North doesn’t get called out enough on its lack of resolve. They won’t even defend their own backyards. Rural life has been so throughly Confederatized that you’re more likely to see a Confederate flag in rural NY than Atlanta.

This likely confirms that the decision to arrest him was made at the highest levels of government, a terrifying return to the policies of ideological exclusion last seen used during the heights of the Cold War. A very, very worrying precedent at the start of this government.

They love shitting on the South while quoting Southern freedom fighters and movements like Fannie Lou Hamer, Freedom Summer, and the Greensboro sit ins.
