My heart is heavy. Walter Koenig, our Ensign Pavel Chekov, passed away early today. Walter and I met on the bridge of the Enterprise in the 1960s, and we stayed friends for nearly six decades. When Brad and I married in 2008, Walter stood beside us as our best man.

Lorenzo Salgado Araujo was driving his construction crew to work when an ICE officer shot and killed him in Houston. He wasnโ€™t even the person ICE was looking for. Now Texas voters are leaving their โ€œI Votedโ€ stickers at his memorial. #BlueWaveIn10Days

On his own podcast in 2023, Vivek Ramaswamy said that "a Black baby is probably safer in the inner street of Chicago than in the womb of his own Black mother." He's now running for Ohio governor.

Protesters in Ocean Beach, San Fransisco made a human banner on No Kings Day today to encourage people to vote early for the most consequential midterm elections in US history. Beautiful.

Meta took down the No Kings organizing page today - the biggest day of protest this fall. They provided zero explanation. It stayed down for the entire afternoon until most of the protests were done. Outrageous. Put this on the January investigation list.

Full update from our team. We STILL do not have admin access to the account.

Update: without explanation, and after being suspended for more than an hour during peak mobilization time, Zuckerberg's Instagram restored the No Kings account but we still lack admin access. More to come. Rest assured we will not stop organizing against this regime and its collaborators.
