Living a moral life in an age of bullies requires collective action; it cannot be done alone. Each of us must organize and participate in a vast network of moral resistance. From this solidarity we will grow stronger. This is what our current moment requires.

Apparently the Constitution is optional now.
ABC is reporting 1,500 active duty Army paratroopers are on alert for deployment to Minnesota

"One official said the president had not made a final decision on whether to deploy two battalions."

The dominoes are falling in place, but we must keep up the pressure!

Tell Congress that impeaching Kristi Noem is just the beginning, and we expect them to get behind it now:

I will believe the revolution is at hand when everyone collectively figures out that Congress is the center of the government and starts relentlessly bugging the crap out of them until they yield or resign.

$1.5T for the military budget
$170B for ICE and Border Patrol
$1B to refurbish Trump's Qatar jet
$470M to send National Guard into cities
$230M for Trump's DOJ "compensation"
$200M for Kristi Noem's jets
$100M for Trump's golf outings

But no money to lower your healthcare costs.

ICE has become a Trojan horse for rabid Nazis, bloodthirsty Nationalists and gun-toting Nitwits.

People are dying in their custody. Americans are being murdered.

If democrats think rigorous training will fix what amounts to a domestic terror group, they have not been paying attention.

This person who successfully committed suicide (something which jails are supposed to protect against) was being held at a random Georgia jail through a contract with the U.S. Marshal Service, which let ICE use its network of contracts with local jails. This is not a big detention center.

American commentators and right wing politicians are expressing shock that countries they have repeatedly threatened with invasion, disrespected on the international stage, and economically bullied are forging new alliances.

Sorry guys, but it’s FAFO time.

I don’t think people quite understand that the occupation by ICE in the Twin Cities has more or less erased non-white people from public life. They cannot safely exist in any space accessible to the public and moving between private places leaves folks vulnerable to kidnapping by armed masked goons.

ICE seems to get completely flummoxed when they’re being yelled at by white men over 35. They kind of put their heads down and shuffle their feet. It’s like their kryptonite.
