My dad was tortured by the Gestapo for 4 days and thrown in a concentration camp for being in the Norwegian Resistance. Growing up, he would tell me things he learned in the Resistance. I thought, I'm never going to need this stuff. Here's some of those things #Thread
I've reblogged this before, and it's worth reblogging again. Take notes.

If it looks like a duck, swims like a duck, and quacks like a duck, then it probably is a duck. Trump and Miller are fascists.

Folks know the civil rights movement was highly trained, right? And that actions that they knew would be dangerous were not only trained for but were prepared for in ways that acknowledge- you may die or be hurt.

“The polite phrase for this is ‘democratic backsliding.’ But that’s a euphemism that doesn’t meet the moment. Let’s call it what it is: it’s a power grab. The rule of law isn’t slipping; leaders are sabotaging it. Rights aren’t being neglected; they’re being stripped."

Every single one of these clips was taken today in downtown Portland. Portland doesn’t want or need a federal takeover. If Trump insists on sending federal “resources” he can start with funding health care, bridges, affordable housing, and wildfire protection to name a few.

Blue cities should tear up the roads in front of ICE facilities and then start decades of community engagement and input sessions to rebuild them. Let's harness our core competencies.

I've been in El Salvador all day fighting for the return of Mr. Abrego Garcia.
The Trump Administration can lie all they want, but the Court said they failed to show he was part of MS-13. This is about bringing home a man they ADMIT should never have been abducted. I won't rest until then.

Kilmar Abrego Garcia was illegally abducted and is being held in a notorious prison in El Salvador — barred from contacting his family or lawyers.
I’m speaking to the press now after we were denied access to the prison to check on his condition. Tune in:

💥 JPMorgan Chase rejects anti-DEI proposal
A proposal called "Request to Cease DEI Efforts" asked JPM to present for shareholder vote in May: "consider abolishing its DEI program, policies, department and goals."

BREAKING: The House passed a bill that limits judges' ability to block the Trump administration's unconstitutional actions nationwide.
This bill is a threat to the rule of law and endangers all of our rights — the Senate must reject it.

I was scared to first put up a queer pride flag (red state resident) but the biggest surprise was how much more often people stopped by my house asking for help: stuck motorists, unhoused neighbors, etc.
Some told me outright that the flag made them guess that I cared about them and that's correct

With all of the anti-drag, transphobic, queerphobic nonsense about lately, I wanted to install a flag that demonstrates queer pride, so here it is. Trans and proud. Queer and proud.
