A Bud Light-style boycott of a Broadway musical is not going to work. The demographic going to see Six the musical is going to show up more to see Dylan Mulvaney in response to transphobic hate, not less. Signed, someone who has seen Six on Broadway twice and has never drank a Bud Light

13 ICE arrests were made at the Meta center site in north Louisiana this morning (Jan. 18).

The arrests were made after traffic stops by the Richland Parish Sherriff’s Office. The sheriff says the 13 arrestees had no Lawful residence in the U.S. and none of them had a Louisiana drivers license.

Like, consider Greg Bovino tweeting out a sizzle reel of protestors scored with “Only You” by the Platters… a J6er hosting a teeny tiny protest in all his battle gear (and getting driven off the street by water balloons). It’s absurd stuff
