I'd like to see the next Dem candidate for president (and the entire party) run on a platform of immediately recognizing the ICC and supporting its prosecutions of all who violate international law including heads of state promoting murder, piracy, etc. Hold them accountable.

Individual park superintendents should take a stand and offer free admission on MLK day and Juneteenth despite the administrations removal of their free day status.
Respect is what the parks are all about.
Lets not forget that.

I cannot emphasize enough that this administration shouldn’t get 𝘰𝘯𝘦 𝘴𝘪𝘯𝘨𝘭𝘦 𝘷𝘰𝘵𝘦 from the Dems until they start obeying the law.
Not. One.
Optics matter: if you want people to turn out next election despite troops in the streets, then show them it matters.
Do your goddamn jobs and hold the line.

It should be needless to say, but it is perhaps at this moment worth saying, that transgender individuals have the same right as anyone else to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.

Old Soviet joke for today:
A man walks into a newsstand every day, looks around, and leaves.
After a long time of this, the owner says “Can I help you find something?”
“I’m looking for the obituaries.”
“The obituaries are in the back of the newspaper, comrade.”
“Not the one I’m looking for.”

Thank you for upholding democracy Mayor Wu.
Last week, Boston received a letter from AG Bondi threatening to prosecute officials and withhold funds unless we cooperate with carrying out mass deportations.
The US Attorney General asked for a response by today, so here it is: stop attacking our cities to hide your administration’s failures.

The goal of a broad anti-fascist alliance isn’t to agree on everything. It is to defeat fascism, so that liberals, neocons, progressives, and nationalists can disagree bitterly about everything else

See, I feel like someone with competence in such matters could make fliers for the Guardsmen being asked to leave their homes to patrol DC that could explain how pathetic it is.
This one, for example, is tailored to Ohio's National Guard (you'd probably have to disseminate it IN OH).

![About the assault:
On August 3, around 3AM, Big Balls’ girlfriend approached her car and group of 10 unarmed teenagers approached
Big Balls shoved one of the kids into the car
Kids assaulted Big Balls and gave him a bloody nose and a concussion
Police responded, arrested two
Big Balls also lost $1,000 iPhone 16
About DOGE:

Kicked Social Security recipients off the rolls

Every Democratic state that can do this, should do this.
Then, when we control the levels of power in DC, we ban gerrymandering for the entire country. Once and for all. Everyone playing by the same rules.
