I'm genuinely tired of the fact that Katie Porter fans keep acting like it's the establishment that's out to get her, or it's a gender issue.

No, her repeated incidents of staff abuse + mistreating anyone w/ perceived less power than her, have just finally caught up to her.

So glad we’re finally cancelling all the politicians who are rude to journalists, because I could name a lot of—

Wait, we’re just cancelling Katie Porter?

That seems a bit pointed. I wonder why the Dems would go after their own front runner?

This weekend, three men in Evanston hugged their families goodbye to look for work at Home Depot but were attacked by ICE before they could return home.

Two were abducted, one is petrified of leaving the home.

Members of the Unpresidented Brass Band were bull rushed & brutalized in the middle of playing "Ghostbusters." One was sent to the hospital and another tackled, arrested, and taken across state lines where she is still being detained.

A few messages seen today in Chicago’s Uptown neighborhood
A poster on a pole next to a street says:
“ICE YOU ARE NOT INVISIBLE
!RECORD!
!RECORD!
!RECORD!
NAZI RATS LEAVE OUR CITY”
A stack of posters featuring a hammer-wielding figure with the stars of the Chicago wrapped around his torso. It says:
“I PREFER MY ICE CRUSHED. END IMMIGRATION ARRESTS, DEFEND OUR SANCTUARY” A sign in a store window says: “WE DON’T [SERVE is crossed out] FEED ICE OR PIGS! even if you steal this sign” The words “ICE OUT” are written in chalk on a sidewalk.

Seeing a lot of "No Kings" protests groups using AI images lately

You aren't resisting fascism by using their tools

Be better than that

A mom in Houston reported her 15-year-old son with autism missing. She spent 6 days terrified, searching for him. The whole time, Houston police knew exactly where he was since they helped ICE place him in a refugee facility.

This is beyond cruel.

I'm crowdsourcing out of desperation so please be kind.

I'm looking for 2 things for a friend. An adult residential ED program that has scholarships or can help offset cost. And while we look for that, a 🏳️‍🌈 friendly CPTSD therapist in the Loxahatchee, FL.

Please help me save my best friend's life.

Lots of us have great-grandparents names who were absolutely changed when they came here, and when people say otherwise, they're assuming your great-grandparents name was in the Roman alphabet.

Now, more than ever, it's important to understand why so many the myths we tell ourselves about immigration are actually very harmful.

First of all, your great-great-grandparents names *were not changed* at Ellis Island. No one there had the authority to do that.

NEW: There’s a disaster unfolding in Alaska right now. And no major network is covering it.

The remnants of Typhoon Halong battered western Alaska overnight. Homes, with people in them, have literally been swept into the Bering Strait.

At least 20 are missing. No comment from any federal agency.
