List of politicians who voted to kill Al Green's articles of impeachment. Thank you to the 79 representatives who sided on the right side of history with Green. #usa #impeach #politics #impeachtrump

Also tucked into this article is slave labor- "Muñoz, the former detainee, said immigrant women can work the cafeteria for $1 per day, overseen by LaSalle corrections officers."

ICE says it provides 'proper meals.' Detainees see crystalized jelly, rancid beans and iced bologna

In the business of immigration detention, researchers say 'bad food is the business model.'

DHS altered a Black boy's video then used it to threaten Americans.

Since we won't come outside they are creating ways to make it seem like we are.

Cancel SPOTIFY.

They are running ICE ads.

F them.

Is Spotify running ICE recruitment ads? Here are the facts

The advertising "is part of a broad campaign the US government is running" across various platforms — not just Spotify, a spokesperson told Snopes.

The Target boycott is good. We need to pick another company & seriously just stop supporting them. I don't think it's reasonable to say stop supporting every company that's doing some shit right now because that's nearly impossible, but targeted boycotts are doable and will work.

Proud of all the protestors. Hope people take to heart that we outnumber ice, alt right, & billionaires.
Things will likely get worse (in real life) before they get better. 47 will lash out- but we can support each other & keep hope alive. 🗽

Elizabeth Cronise McLaughlin @ecmclaughlin.bsky.social · 1d

Trump just posted an AI slop video of himself dumping shit on protestors from a fighter jet while wearing a crown, just in case you were wondering how today’s events impacted his mental health situation.

They’re losing. They’ve already lost. He will get a lot more weird and aggro from here on out.

If you get a chance to speak to media today please make sure to bring up Indigenous activists of Portland Oregon abused by Geo Group inside ICE cells in PDX. We need an investigation. We need the torture covered and acknowledged.

No one deserves torture. I mean the legal definition of torture.

Zeteo was in DC & Chicago, where we saw tens of thousands — conservatives, liberals, socialists, independents — all protesting Trump’s ICE, oligarchs, and Israeli violence in Palestine.

Hear from Al Green, Chris Murphy, Bill Nye, and protestors — including a lifelong Republican & military man:

No King: Trump Faces Historic, Peaceful Protests All Over the US

No time to watch all the coverage of the ‘No Kings’ rallies? Zeteo teams have you covered on the ground in Chicago and DC.

NEW — Bill Nye, at "No Kings" in DC, on Gaza:
"There's something wrong when you have one country ruining, leveling another country…the whole thing just makes you furious."

"In the US, we had an agreement…we're going to leave religion out of our government. There's some value there, I think…"

Great idea for post #nokings stay safe!

15. Organize anti-racist bar crawls
If fascists are drinking in public, host an anti-racist bar crawl which goes to their hangouts. Not only do social events help build relationships, a bar crawl puts fascists on notice that their spots are known- and makes it clear to the bars that they have a problem. Similarly, sometimes people will declare an area a "nazi free zone" and patrol it to make sure it stays that way.

Bobby Garcia is a violent racist hate group member who appears to work at Westbrook Toyota in Westbrook, CT. Welcome to the sunlight.

I bet they'd love to know what you think. They open at 9am EST on Monday. Set yourself an alarm and get a Nazi fired, as a treat.
