There was a tidal wave of hyperventilating over this guy, painting him as a communist revolutionary leading an actual insurgency. I’m sorry but the bankers were never leaving the global financial center just because the next mayor wants to subsidize bus lines

Disabled people are particularly vulnerable to abuse under fascism.

ICE has been neglecting the medical needs of detainees.

One disabled immigrant, Rodney Taylor, needs our help.

He's a double amputee who's been in the country since he was two years old. He's being held in solitary:
Help Rodney Taylor, a Disabled Double Amputee Being Held by ICE
Rodney has been in the country more than 40 years. He's in solitary confinement in Georgia, being denied disability accommodations and having his medical needs ignored. He must be released.

as a jew, i feel relieved and vindicated that cynical fearmongering about israel did not win this election for a sex creep and grandma killer, a win which would have been declared ‘on my behalf’ and which i and most of my fellow jews did not want
I'm hearing a lot of "Jews in New York are scared" today. So, a couple of thoughts: 1) Jews should be angry, not scared. We were targeted with a relentless, heavily funded barrage of lies playing off of real fears of antisemitism by a man who came within 7 points of winning. That reeks of contempt.>

I know lawyering up and shutting up is scary. Believe me. I do.

But you CANNOT talk your way out of an arrest or detention.

You CAN talk your way into charges, arrest, or detention.

And you'd be amazed how often the response to lawyering up is just letting you go.

If you're protesting tomorrow:

"I invoke my rights to silence and counsel and will not answer questions without my attorney present."

MEMORIZE THAT, because aside from asking if you're free to leave (or providing ID if you're in a stop and ID state), that's the ONLY thing you ever say to cops.

I know I'm not supposed to care about things because I'm Gen X, but i be caring. I know a lot of my generation was raised to "endure." Whatever it is, the question is always "but did you die?" And the answer is "no, far worse...i remained alive but couldn't live." Not caring hasn't served us.

If law enforcement wants to enter your home, unless you consent, they need a JUDICIAL warrant like a search warrant. And you'll notice cops with search warrants don't ask permission.

If ICE needs your permission to enter, they don't have a judicial warrant. They have an administrative warrant.

Just to be clear: They laugh at our deaths too. From Reagan's team yucking it up over AIDS, to Obama ribbing the Jonas Bros about drone killings, to Jeb Bush and Jen Shealy laughing about Katrina, to the crossfit CEO joking about George Floyd's murder, to every single Covid overreaction joke...

RIP Jordan Neely. Can’t stop thinking about how far gone we are that your murderer gets to walk free. I hope you’ve found peace.
