I created this fabric collage immediately after Kamala Harris began her campaign for President, dreaming about finally being able to celebrate a woman taking her rightful place behind the Resolute Desk. Here’s to holding on to hope.

ICE BEHIND THE MASKS HAVE NAMES 2 masked agents threatened to arrest Robert Peck for legally observing them. He sued. “And now, because of a lawsuit, the (ICE) agents have names.” A Hylton 📌Nicholas Lapointe 📌Christopher Semler I hope more people take ICE to court when their rights are violated.

The President says he is going to ban CNN, MSNOW and Politico from the White House. He’s trampling on our Constitution and the freedom of the press. His corruption is staggering–and his attempts to cover it up won’t work.

Anyone else just tired? It’s constant shenanigans from this administration, and our mental health has taken such a beating. We just wanted to say that if you’re feeling the same way, we understand. We’re here with you and for you. It’s a lot.

🇨🇦🇺🇸❗️Canada has imposed retaliatory tariffs of 15% to 50% on $20 billion worth of American imports. The measure comes after the recent collapse of bilateral trade talks. The US previously imposed similar tariffs on Canadian exports worth the same amount, - Reuters.

I had no idea that Peanut Tillman was an FBI agent. Can you imagine robbing a bank, getting 3/4 of the way away, and Peanut Tillman punches the burlap sack with a giant dollar sign on it out from under your arm?

Chicago Sun-Times@chicago.suntimes.com

Former Bears cornerback Charles “Peanut” Tillman decided to leave the FBI in part because he didn’t believe in the agency’s role in enforcing immigration.

I’ll never forget superstar singer-songwriter Pink saying that people who still support the orange felon at this point are an insult to humanity, goodness and human rights. And I couldn’t agree more.

In case you had any doubts about how much Trump hates journalists, he literally tried to get them killed.

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com

So Trump and the White House lied about which plane Trump was on flying out of Turkey, setting up journalists who thought they were on the same plane as the president to possibly be the target of an Iranian attack while he secretly departed on a different one. Words fail.

Sacrificing his freedom and everything he’s worked so hard for is incredibly selfless. Protecting our country then and now — to uphold his oath to the constitution. Mad RESPECT!✊🏼

THIS IS WHAT IS CALLED FOR UNDER FASCISM — BRAVERY Before the attacks & the hot takes start, a few facts: Major Jason Watson is a graduate of the US Air Force Academy, a career logistics officer, a NATO officer, and a decorated veteran who volunteered for a 365-day tour in Afghanistan… 🧵

When we have a real president again, he or she will have to waste inordinate amounts of time cleaning up the terrible mess created by this awful mistake of a human who never should have been allowed near the levers of power.

Today, in the wake of the Supreme Court's decision in Callais, I'm fighting for voting rights. As my late colleague Elijah Cummings used to say, we are better than this.

Americans should not be paying the pensions for members of Congress who leave office in disgrace and violate the public trust. Raise your hand if you agree. ✋

I’m seeing a whole lot of “but what about” posts on here today. We’ve reached the point of fascism (a long time ago, honestly) when things are really bad for a lot of people. Someone naming how it’s bad for them isn’t taking anything from you. Solidarity with each other is the way out of this.
