In Monrovia, California, protesters are purchasing 17¢ ICE scrapers from Home Depot and immediately returning them to create long lines and slow down the entire store. Their aim is to disrupt sales and convey a message opposing ICE raids occurring in their neighborhood.

Democratic politicians, repeat after me: "There are doctors who have spent a long time working with trans youth. Maybe we should listen to them." Then point to someone like @turban.bsky.social. Don't say stuff like "kids are too young," expecially if you have never spent time with trans kids.

Jake Tapper sucks and he still has not apologized for smearing Rashida Tlaib. He literally made up a quote she did not say to try to create a fake outrage cycle on national television. He consistently demonstrates anti-Muslim bias.

BREAKING: A new Gaza solidarity encampment is being built at Yale, one year after dozens were arrested here. They demand immediate divestment from Israeli weapons manufacturing.

I think some in the Senate have convinced themselves that the backlash to folding will be limited to “the left” and therefore ignorable.

Those people are deeply and profoundly misreading the moment and the stakes.

Virtually every swing district House Dem walked the plank to vote NO for a reason.
