Only 3.5% of a population needs to protest to topple a dictatorship. That’s it—3.5%. Don’t be made to feel like you can’t make a difference. Keep up the pressure!

Here's an opportunity to support the other journalist arrested today; Georgia Fort, who will have far fewer resources available to her than Don Lemon.
Georgia Fort's is chilling, and it's being overshadowed by the equally chilling arrest of Don Lemon.
A GoFundMe is being set up for Fort. In the meantime, you can support her work directly – without paying massive fundraising platform fees – through her website:

ICE has been holding a disabled Black man for a year!
Rodney Taylor is a double amputee who was days away from receiving new prosthetic legs when ICE took him.
He’s been denied his prosthetics & placed in solitary.
His health is declining.
Public outrage might save his life.

Everyone check out @bhennrich.bsky.social who is running against Perez and has committed to dismantling ICE.
Let's be clear. For reasons only known to #MGPisGOP she chose to lose this seat and re-election. I am running to save this seat for the Democrats. There is no chance for her to survive in a General election after telling her base she does not care.
ICE must be dismantled, end of discussion!

I completely disagree. Infighting and primary challenges are what the Republicans WANT from democrats. If we dems want change, let's convince the leaders we have to change, not overturn the apple cart. Chaos only helps THEM. Being united helps US

The article explains that ICE's 287(g) program "authorizes local deputies to act like federal agents."
If you live in one of these places & don't want your local law enforcement partnering with ICE, it's a great time to start campaigning!

in ≈20 states this year, sheriffs who have joined ICE's 287(g) program are up for reelection
i found that a small number of sheriffs are actually representing counties that rejected Trump & voted Harris in 2024.
and they're up for reelection in 2026.
