In the US, presidents don't censor the media. Freedom of the press sets us apart from dictatorships.

After Trump called PBS "radical, woke propaganda," Republicans want to cut $1.1 BILLION from the Corporation for Public Broadcasting.

Another step toward authoritarianism.

This was so much fun to make. No wonder it’s called the Happy Stripes Quilt by Emily Dennis #quiltsky #modernquilting #happystripesquilt

This is an obvious point, but cannot overstated. There is an enormous difference between deporting someone - where they get off a plane as a free citizen in their home country AND FUNNELING THEM INTO A BRUTAL PRISON FROM WHICH THEY HAVE NO CHANCE OF EVER EMERGING!!!

SAVE Act just passed House. It is modern-day poll tax that would disenfranchise tens of millions of Americans, end online, mail + voter registration drives & require voters to register in person at election offices, forcing some rural voters to drive 8 hours to register. Total disaster in every way
🚨House voting on SAVE Act today, worst voter suppression bill ever considered by Congress. Could disenfranchise:

-21 million w/out access to citizenship docs
-69 million women who took spouses last name
-ends online + mail registration & voter reg drives

House Republicans are set to pass a voter suppression bill that would disenfranchise millions
“It's a five-alarm fire for American voters and for election officials”

Not yet quilted, but this improv pieced banner is done, featuring one of my favorite quotes by concentration camp survivor and rights activist Stéphane Hessel

His full quote is "To create is to resist. To resist is to create." but I didn't have enough scraps […]
