The bridge between, "we the government will allow schoolchildren to be terrorized indefinitely because we want gun lobby money" and "we'll do the terrorizing ourselves to satiate the personal bloodlust of our evil employees" has always been a short trip, and has been crossed before. But still, jfc.

File the charges. Tonight.
Wrote a piece for @slate.com explaining that states have a long history of prosecuting federal officers when they allegedly use excessive force. Federal officers are only immune from such prosecutions when they act reasonably in carrying out lawful duties.
Minnesota Could Prosecute the ICE Shooter. Trump Can’t Pardon Him.
Shortly after an ICE officer shot and killed a woman in Minneapolis, city leaders began looking into whether the officer had violated state criminal law.

Trump blames woman murdered by ICE for her own death
According to President Donald Trump, the 37-year-old Minneapolis woman who was murdered by an Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent Wednesday—Renee Nicole Good—is to blame for her own death.

the outrage about Minneapolis should not come from the fact that Renee Good was a citizen

it should come from that fact that even being a citizen will not save you from an ICE agent deciding to murder you, and that politicians will still defend them

(What tips the scale for me...)
Will it be an entry point into more meaningful direct action and community organizing? Absolutely, for some.
Does it help people in red states felel less abandoned? I think so.
Is it a free outside hang on a sunny day that pisses some truly terrible people off? Yep!
Is a march going to fix things? Nope!
Will staying home and doing nothing fix things? Nope!
Will staying home and whining on the internet about other people marching fix things? Also nope! 🤷🏻

“I prefer direct action” cool ok well you do that and you can also let boomers hold signs en masse. It doesn’t have to be one or the other.

Some buzz around the RFK byte where he lists conditions he "never heard of" but not much about what he says after--disabled people are "bankrupting the country" and a security threat since we can't do military service. About as close to verbatim N*zi talking point as you can get in translation.

#utoledo is falling in line with SB1 and just cut the following degrees. shameful. they’re hiding behind the rationale that these degrees are not profitable or in-demand rather than admit that they’re taking steps to eliminate DEI across the university.

It's always been the case that "buying" an ebook from amazon was only actually a loan they could rescind at any point, but lately Amazon have gone harder on this, and it is 100% so that they can wipe banned books from your libraries without your consent.

Buy direct from authors. Get your files.

also ask about interlibrary loan! in Ohio, that’s SearchOhio or OhioLINK. in Michigan that’s MeL :) you can get books from all over the state this way
if your library doesn't carry a book you'd like to read, make a recommendation (there's often a form for this on your library's website)! not only will you hopefully get to read said book, others will also be able to check it out too!

If you’re cis & you want trans folks to know they’re valid and cared for, here’s a tip: Don’t say it to a trans person. Go talk to a cis person.

Talk to your dad. Your coworker. Your friends. Ask if they know whats going on. Ask if they have uncertainties when it comes to the ~trans issue.~
