One first step people should do to respond to this is start using the “report a speed trap” function in Apple Maps to report where ICE is operating. Make Apple party to the attempt to protect people.

If they're going to try and retcon Charlie Kirk, then we should try to retcon him too.

I love this so much and I am absolutely tearing up about it. The gentleness and plainness of this, the way he just lets her be her (and she seems so damn lovely, who wouldn’t?), the generosity. It isn’t going to solve the world’s problems, but this kind of humanity is a hell of a start.

David Huerta, President of California's largest union, was assaulted and detained Friday by ICE. Now the @aflcio.org, the biggest confederation of unions in America made up of nearly 15 million active and retired workers, is calling on members to protest on his behalf.
San Diego neighborhood makes ICE agents retreat
Once again I am calling for Democrats to introduce legislation requiring standardized uniforms, visible badge numbers with names, as well as a requirement for ICE and DHS agents to present proof that there is enough danger present to be masked to a judge when they get their warrant.
O’BRIEN: “.. Trump once told me that he admired John Gotti, the notorious mobster, because Gotti never backed down, never flinched or wept in a courtroom, and gave everyone who opposed him the evil eye. That’s how Trump sees himself. Anything but a chicken.” www.bloomberg.com/opinion/arti...

Matthew B. Jané@matthewbjane.bsky.social · last yr.The meta-analysis on the relationship between Fluoride and IQ by Taylor et al.

I'm not kidding that any Dem who wants to run in 2028 should get out ahead of this and loudly say if El Salvador puts American citizens in Trump's gulag we'll fucking invade.
The final vote: 51-45, with 4 people absent. CLOTURE FAILS, A CONGRESSIONAL SPORTS BAN WILL NOT HAPPEN. Democrats hold firm, not a single dem voted for cloture. MAJOR victory for everyone who called in today and this week in support of trans people.
I officially challenge all of Wisconsin’s Congressional Republicans to defend their vote to slash Medicaid and cut taxes for the ultra-rich. Let’s do it in a town hall format for maximum transparency!
I remember thinking this in Trump 1.0. Kamala Harris (or somebody) should name some SHADOW SECRETARIES right now. They should have well maintained websites. Press conferences, speeches, etc.
Mark Harris@markharris.bsky.social · last yr.One thing Democratic leadership could do right now is to name an alternate HHS secretary--someone to provide ongoing public updates and health information.
