“They were careless people, Tom and Daisy—they smashed up things and . . . then retreated back into their money . . . and let other people clean up the mess they had made.”

Spotify is now running ICE recruitment ads. We asked them to stop. They ignored us. Let's show them what we showed Disney. No Kings, No Collaborators, No Capitulators. indivisible.org/cancel-spotify

Has he tried asking republicans why they won’t pass a standalone bill to fund SNAP or why they’re not using the contingency funds for such an emergency?

I hear you. The cruelty and criminality is astonishing. I have to work hard to not let their bad acts cause me to lower my principles.

Anthony Boyd asked Supreme Court justices to spare him from a torturous death by nitrogen hypoxia. They said no. His execution took 37 minutes. This is barbarous.

This is fantastic and makes me curious about the spooky campfire stories a ghost would tell.

Trump demolishing the east wing of the White House is an apt visual for what he is doing to this country. Jesus f*cking Christ.

omg!

"Demolition crews have begun tearing down part of the White House...

"Construction teams Monday were demolishing a portion of the East Wing, with a backhoe ripping through the structure..."

This post of DJT shitting on Americans is an apt metaphor for his verbal diarrhea and shitty policies his forcing on us.

Something maybe worth noting is that all the frog costumes and signs and good-natured memeing came about because a wide spectrum of Americans saw someone in direct, brave confrontation with ICE—getting pepperballed and standing their ground—and thought “that’s awesome. That person is a hero”

Love America. Hate Kings.
Attend a No Kings protest for the love of America. 🇺🇸

Timothy Snyder @timothysnyder.bsky.social · 20d

Protestors believe that action has meaning. Protestors are exercising the rights enshrined in the Constitution. For me, protest is about love of country. I will be there on October 18th, and I hope you will be too.
