Both sides news coverage is killing democracy and there is no place where it is more dangerous that in how legacy media covers the GOP attacks on free and fair elections.

Dear Women,

If your BF/husband has had an increase in balaclava and camo shirt laundry, I’d love to suggest a Lysistrata sex strike til we #AbolishICE but really, I encourage you to leave now because odds are good they’re beating you too.

Enough.

Hours after ICE became the highest federal law enforcement agency in America history (and likely in world history), the Supreme Court lifts the last obstacle to ICE deporting people to any random country around the world, even in conflict zones or where migrants are enslaved.
Over dissents from Justices Sotomayor & Jackson (and a rare concurrence from Justice Kagan), #SCOTUS "clarifies" that its 6/23 ruling staying a district court's injunction against third-country removals *also* applies to the district court's later order requiring a remedy for those already removed:

Again, the defining feature of Roberts Court is that every case dwells not on the harm being done to victims, but on the supposed harm that would come if the abusers lost the right to inflict it. Very neo-Confederate.

Wishing you a meaningful Fourth of July. We hope you enjoy this time with your loved ones and take a moment to reflect on what freedom truly means today. Late last night, Trump pushed through several executive orders, measures they couldn’t get through Congress or sneak into the “big 💩 bill.”

(1/2) Today in #WashingtonDC

#DCProtest

@refusefascism.bsky.social hosted several rush hour banner drops around the DMV area to get the word out about the July 4th march (Logan Circle, 2pm!)

Above I-495, we had one simple message for commuters:

Trump must go NOW!

In "How to Dismantle a Dictatorship," @heathermarsh.bsky.social writes that the resistance must take the focus. "In a power relationship, one person acts and the other reacts. A dictator issues anger; the public responds with fear. The dictator issues contempt; the public reacts with shame."

Dictatorship is not upheld by the tyrant alone, but by the structure of power and the public’s acceptance of it.

“Dismantling a dictatorship is not easy, but it is a lot easier than holding one together.” #BindingChaos #3E #NoKings #RefuseFascism

The U.S. Senate is currently considering a budget reconciliation bill that quietly includes language that could devastate our public lands. It would:
- Make over 250 million acres of public land eligible for sale
- Mandate the sale of at least 2 million acres of Forest Service and BLM land

The White House called a lid, meaning that Trump isn’t expected to be seen or heard from for the rest of the evening.

Cool, cool. Not like the American people need to hear from POTUS while we’re tweeting our way into a war, or anything.

Trump is alone, humiliated, surrounded by loser supporters, and extremely angry. This is when he'll be at his most dangerous and will do as much as possible to hurt America and the world.
