I've been posting here about #taxresistance and other approaches to #softsecession
MAGA makes plain that it doesn't represent those whose political views differ from the president's and, in fact, POTUS has said explicitly and repeatedly that his govt is fighting a war against the enemy within.
There is no longer any moral basis to this government's claim on our sovereignty.
As long as this usurpation continues, we must resolve to #defundfascism in whatever ways possible.

So #ICE cannot afford to rent Porta potties?
Or the manly men of #ICE need running water and mirrors in their battlefield bathrooms?
What happens to them when they invade Greenland?

The Corporation for Public Broadcasting has voted to dissolve after Republicans rescinded $1.1B at President Trump’s behest.
This ends the 58-year-old agency that distributed federal funds to NPR, PBS and more than 1,500 local public radio & television stations. https://apple.news/AXdo2-zPuRCiJSiIVd3DXSg #uspol #news
Don't be surprised if, in the coming days, the United States drops all charges against Maduro.
Trump can never say no to a good bribe, especially if it includes cash AND oil rights.
"Trump's airbrushed version of Jan 6 distorts history. See the evidence for yourself. "
NPR does a great job sharing details -

Even when the ruling class has become reactionary, its ideology remains dominant for a long time. In the first place, it rests on force of habit and tradition; secondly, it is actively imposed by the whole machinery of power (above all, the state) and by the numerous institutions of the ruling class (the Church, the press, and so on), and thus at the same time hinders the spread of new ideas. However, the progressive ideology possesses a decisive advantage in that it reflects the demands of social development. Revolutionary ideas can be forbidden but they cannot be destroyed. Sooner or later they take hold of the masses, spur them to action and then comes the end of the old system. #UsPol

The phrase describing this behavior is "state terror". It is not "enforcement" or "operations". This is inexcusable.

I dislike framing #privilege in racial terms. It reaches those already aware & misses a huge growing reservoir of white privilege... brown people. That the American idea of white has shifted through time says that this is as much cultural as racial.
Being first generation, I know lots of immigrants. Brown people who weren't born with privilege and come into it later in life, can be the worst because we don't realize that we've joined the disenfranchisers.
I'm naturally introspective & may have figured it out eventually, but my wife accelerated the process. She's white, aware, & understood the implications and responsibilities of privilege. It's embarrassing, but at the start of our relationship, I was "whiter" than she was.
Also, the race conflict framing benefits the regime whose supporters are mostly not poor. The ones who are poor won't grasp the sociological implications of something they're not fully enjoying. Those people are potential allies & don't need to understand perfectly to join us.

What happened to Renee Nicole Good is not an anomaly or a rare phenomenon.
The only unusual factor is that she was white.
A Black man named Keith Porter was shot & killed by ICE on New Year’s Eve.
Marimar Martinez was shot five times by an ICE officer in Chicago who went on to brag about leaving seven holes in her body. She survived but has a hole in her arm forever.
Silverio Villegas González was shot dead in Franklin Park Illinois when he panicked and tried to run.
Then there’s the more than 30 people who’ve died in the camps.
No accountability. No punishment.
Keep speaking out. Let’s make sure this officer is held responsible.

Just signed up for my local Visibility Brigade No Kings Day rally. How are you spending your Saturday?
#USPol #PresidentForSale #Resist #Indivisible #VisibilityBrigade #ICE #Immigration #Fascism #NoKings
It's 625am here, I'm on holiday, I'm pre-coffee, and I've already made my latest round of calls to all 3 of my reps in congress, demanding impeachment of Trump, Hegseth, and Rubio, and that they stop cooperating with this regime.
You a US citizen or resident? Doing this is the bare minimum.
The calls get easier with practice, and I know legislative staffers: calls matter!
What else can we do NOW and over the long term? What leverage do we have? 🧵👇🏻 #USPol

Jonathan Ross handles his stress by shooting you in the face
"What we choose to emphasize in this complex history will determine our lives. If we see only the worst, it destroys our capacity to do something. If we remember those times and places — and there are so many — where people have behaved magnificently, it energizes us to act, and raises at least the possibility of sending this spinning top of a world in a different direction. And if we do act, in however small a way, we don’t have to wait for some grand utopian future. The future is an infinite succession of presents, and to live now as we think human beings should live, in defiance of all that is bad around us, is itself a marvelous victory."

I was just watching a YouTube video with I presume auto-generated captions, and the speaker said "the world doesn't trust the US" but the caption read "the world doesn't trust the AI".

Is anyone else glad that people are finally outraged at ICE, but also uncomfortable that it takes the murder of a blonde white woman to get some folks on board?
