My constituent, Wilmer, was mauled by an ICE attack dog despite the fact that, as he has consistently explained, he was not resisting arrest or trying to flee—his wife and young children, all U.S. citizens, were forced to watch helplessly as Wilmer was violently attacked and dragged away.

Including billionaires in your coalition is by default, small tent since, you know, you can actually fit the entirety of that demographic in an actual tent.
Gov. @gavinnewsom says he disagrees with Mayor @zohrankmamdani about the need for a wealth tax on billionaires, which he is “adamantly against” - says Dems are a “big tent party” with both views.

This is DEFCON 1 priority, y'all. Call your senators, reps, call your friends and tell them to call their senators and reps about this. Call your grandma and tell her to call her senators and reps about this.

What we have here will be *gone* if these bills pass.
Congress is attempting to fast track KOSA and more than a dozen bills that would restrict internet access, censor speech and increase surveillance under the guise of protecting children.

Committee hearings begin tomorrow.
Lawmakers to consider 19 bills for childproofing the internet
KOSA is back, along with more than a dozen other bills that will erode free speech and privacy in the name of protecting kids.

The shitty internet bills are being put on the docket in congress again, and just so there are no surprises if the worse outcome happens; I will not use any platform that requires me to send them copies of an actual ID, or even just give them document numbers.

The Trump administration is sending a group of prisoners to a federal supermax prison known as “The Alcatraz of the Rockies.” They were previously taken off of death row by then-President Biden.

Our new story with @thenation.com:
Death Row Prisoners Granted Clemency by Biden Brace for “Living Hell” Under Trump
Trump officials are retaliating by imposing the harshest conditions in the entire federal prison system, including near total isolation.

Starforged is sooooo good, y'all! If you are a writer, I highly recommend the Oracles which I have used to help me brainstorm so many times.

(I asked the Oracle why you should buy Starforged and it said "persevere solution," so maybe it has the solution to the plot problem that's been vexing you.)

Just a reminder that if you're mad or afraid about something happening in government,

If you never contact representatives or protest to make your voice heard where it matters, then nobody in power will ever know that it mattered to you

Social media is only a useful tool if it moves people to act

Next week the House E&C Committee is looking to run something of a shock and awe campaign, debating at least 19 bills that they say are related to "protecting kids online." Most of which are actually about censorship and control. Don't buy the framing. It's always the same damn thing.
