This is a checklist of things you can do, probably should do, resources, ideas, ways to move forward.
“I just don’t know what to do!!” shouldn’t be something you say now.

Solzhenitsyn wrote that things might have been different if more people had screamed in the stairwell when taken away. Probably not in Stalin’s Soviet Union, but maybe here.
If you see this kind of abduction, scream and intervene at risk to yourself. In fact, just scream anytime you see ICE or CPB.

Her name is Rumeysa Ozturk, she's a student from Turkey, and even her lawyer doesn't know where she is right now.
Ozturk's attorney tells me they still have no idea where she is. ICE says only that she is in the agency's custody. www.salon.com/2025/03/26/d...

Those officers need to identify themselves.
If not, those gestapo thugs need to be identified.

Video of the international student at Tufts being arrested by "federal authorities" in Massachusetts has been released and it's terrifying.
They're not even uniformed officers. Just secret police thugs in hoodies and masks.

Wow. Judge Howell is worried that if she orders DOGE to leave the USIP building it could turn into an “armed standoff” over unwillingness to vacate, and points out law enforcement has shown willingness to help DOGE. Asks if we’ll need foreign mediators to come in.

Musk is an absolutely depraved and evil man. Defending Stalin, Hitler, and Mao in order to justify firing VA nurses and park rangers? How does one come to hate civil servants so much? Insane, and dangerous.

We're in a comic book story where previously defeated villains come back and team up against the hero, like the Sinister Six v. Spider-Man. They're weakened by infighting, but in real life there's no guarantee the hero wins.

But no joke, this is one reason I am prioritizing solar and battery for our home in Philly.
I watched Terrorgram Nazis spend the last five years getting each other pumped up to firebomb power stations in blue-voting metro areas. I have no faith that Kash will stop them

some reporters have been too loose with phrasing like DEI. makes it sound like it's all abt post-George Floyd murder stuff. As he notes, they're ditching anti-discrimination policies that go back to LBJ.
If DEI has just "gotten out of hand," then why is the Trump administration going all the way back to a 1965 LBJ civil rights executive order for repeal?
