Remind me: Did Brett Kavanaugh include having your wedding band cut in pieces among the minor inconveniences of being arrested by ICE as a US citizen?
“She has marks on her neck and wrist from where agents restrained her. Agents cut off her wedding ring and held her in leg shackles at Whipple Federal Building for about five hours.”
Her crime: witnessing ICE, from a distance.

Teach a man who hates socialism and votes for authoritarianism to farm and he can receive socialist handouts for life from the government that bankrupted him in the first place.

A woman recently went viral for holding up a window sign during a traffic stop, part of a growing trend of drivers using cards to assert their rights instead of speaking to police.

When the Wampanoag first fed the Pilgrims
they didn't realize
they'd just invented Socialism
for undocumented refugee immigrants.
Happy Thanksgiving.

This is the best thing the DNC could do to insure the most electable candidate makes it onto the ballot in the general election. (IMO)

BOOM: I'm now comfortable making a firm call. Progressive Sarah Dixit defeats conservative incumbent Jon Bingle in the race for a seat in NE Spokane.
Sarah Dixit: 6,291 (50.5%)
Jon Bingle: 6,135 (49.2%)
This is now outside the recount threshold!

Time for 8 shitty senators to fall on their swords. Fuck ‘em. I’m ready to out the money I was putting aside for shoring up food pantries to go into primary-ing these spineless wonders.

As a pragmatic progressive eastern Washington mom, I’m pretty sure I could primary @schumer.senate.gov and win at this point. Totally predictable and equally spineless. Get bent ‘moderates’ .

If I were running the DNC, there would be Democratic Party sponsored food relief banks across the country right now that specifically welcomed anyone regardless of party affiliation.
Along with the food, there could be voter registration and links to runforsomething.net

Watch this.
Open your eyes to this brutality.
ICE beats up, drags & abducts this disabled visually impaired man.
Now share this.
Everyone must see the brutality of this administration & ask themselves what they are doing to push back.
You have power.
Even sharing this video exerts that power.

Yes,destroying the people’s house because you’re mad that 7 million+ people made you look weak last weekend is totally on brand. However, it’s just a building, and for my part it makes me feel free to say ‘Fuck you, our country is built on ideas, not your tacky gold-leaf house of cards.’
