The hemp ban does not just affect crappy gas station THC products. It also bans regulated & tested hemp THC products, as well as all full spectrum CBD.

Anyway a great way to radicalize people is for them to realize that you just abandoned their chance at being able to access and afford health care because you didn’t like waiting in line at the airport.

The event is on Sunday, November 9th at 3-6pm at the Goddard College Hay Barn. It is planned as the first of a series of events aimed at organizing a Central Vermont rapid response network designed to spring into action for mutual aid and protection from ICE and other purveyors of fascist violence.

you can win without billionaires supporting you

you can win without party leadership endorsing you

you can win unapologetically standing with every persecuted minority pundits say are too politically toxic to touch

we could do everything about this process differently if we wanted to
Can’t stop thinking about all the robber baron fucks that held secret meetings and spent MILLIONS AND MILLIONS in bribes and campaign investments and attack ads and media manipulation trying to tank Mamdani currently having the dawning realization that their money is completely and utterly useless.

A seeming bit of history tonight as Ghazala Hashmi becomes the first Asian American to win statewide office in Virginia - and the first Muslim woman to win statewide office *anywhere* in the United States.

Another day, another "yes" from @welch.senate.gov. We need him to slow our slide into tyranny by throwing sand in the gears of authoritarianism.

He must:
* Oppose all nominees
* Deny Unanimous Consent
* Vote “No” on all Cloture
* Force Quorum calls

Call his office: (202) 224-4242

Our federal tax dollars are being used to fund a network of government social media accounts that pump out disinformation 24/7. Even during a government shutdown. It’s definitely not essential work.

Come say hi to me in the welcome tent!
24 hours until we mobilize in huge numbers to say "#NOKINGS IN AMERICA". Abducting immigrants, deploying troops in our streets, silencing votes, defying the courts... This is a dictatorship in action and tomorrow, together, we reject it. ❌ 👑

See you at 10am on the lawn at 1126 Main in #StJohnsbury

The campaign against “antifa” is about establishing a beachhead for further attacks on speech and assembly rights. We see that today in the effort to preemptively label No Kings protesters as “terrorists.”

Six Democratic senators on the Senate Judiciary Committee (Durbin, Schiff, Whitehouse, Klobuchar, Coons, and Welch) voted yes on two Trump district court nominees this morning, and my question remains, why do senior members of this party keep voluntarily ceding political capital to Donald Trump
Why Is This Democratic Senator Voting to Confirm a Trump Judicial Nominee?
If you really think Trump poses an existential threat to democracy, the bar for affirmatively supporting one of his nominees has to be higher than “I don’t know, he seems fine.”

The largest corn maze in New England is only 20 minutes from @leiascofield.com ‘s house, so we did the most fall of fall activities, though it was very warm. We did the scenic route (about an hour long with easy directions).

Sit down for breakfast but because I have Truth alerts on my phone--professional hazard on the fascism beat--I learn five minutes after the fact that Trump is sending troops to Portland with authorization for "full force." Not a drill, friends.

More than 1800 detainees are missing after the closure of Alligator Alcatraz. Their families and lawyers can’t find them and they’ve vanished from the ICE database. Feels like this should be a much bigger story www.miamiherald.com/news/local/i...
Hundreds of Alligator Alcatraz detainees drop off the grid after leaving site
As of the end of August, the whereabouts of two-thirds of more than 1,800 men detained at Alligator Alcatraz during the month of July could not be determined by the Miami Herald.
