I can't believe I have to say this, but this is where we are... If someone is shot in front of your, check for a pulse at the neck. If it is not strong and easy to count (you don't need to count, it just needs to be easy to count), begin chest compressions IMMEDIATELY. Hard and fast, center (1/

A sprawling and potentially devastating winter storm is projected to slam a massive swath of the country through the weekend. Heavy snow, life-threatening cold and dangerous ice accumulation are all in the forecast.

To anyone who lives in the Oklahoma City area be advised that the city council will consider approving an ICE facility on Tuesday the 20th at 8:30 AM. The facility is near a majority Hispanic school in a Hispanic neighborhood. ICE cannot be allowed to terrorize these people. Show up to protest.

The *how* of #NoKings is impeachment. Don't just say No Kings. Say how to get there. Impeach, convict, remove.

Just because I threw it out there last No King's Day - might as well throw it out there this time. I firmly believe that's what today is all about - a declaration of hope. We will not be silent. We will not be still. We will not bow. #NoKingsDay

Four bull elk took time away from mating to join the No Kings protest in Estes Park, Colorado. That’s how serious this is.

Sounds reasonable to me...

Listen! Do not let your fight against fascism stop with today’s No King’s protest—let today start & accelerate! Register to vote, volunteer on a campaign, get involved locally, donate to a candidate you believe in, run for office—democracy is not for bystanders! Democracy needs your courage!❤️✊🏽

In Mississippi, thousands of people are taking to the streets to protest the Trump administration today in Corinth, Gulfport, Hattiesburg, Hernando, Jackson, Oxford, Starkville and Tupelo. Here's what you need to know about today's rallies. www.mississippifreepress.org/mississippia...

As the Epstein shutdown continues, remember your neighbors who have lost income or jobs. Trump cancelled 94 million pounds of food destined for food banks and they are running low. Please drop off non-perishable groceries at your local food bank.

If you thought today's New York City #NoKings rally was fun, wait until you hear what we get to do NEXT Saturday: Vote.

Go after all of em and put on the pressure.

It's Juneteenth. Here's @levarburton.bsky.social reading Lift Every Voice and Sing. #BlackLivesMatter youtu.be/GNEPwwv56DY

Happy Juneteenth! A day to remember freedom won and freedom still being fought for. These Black public health heroes deserve to be known and celebrated. Their legacies shape our work today — and our future. #Juneteenth #PublicHealthSavesLives publichealth.nyu.edu/events-news/...

#ICEAlert

We're living at a moment when ICE is threatening not only to arrest and deport immigrants but arrest and prosecute everyday people and leaders for educating others about their constitutional rights. Helping to defend our immigrant communities is one clear action that we can all take right now. ⤵️

PSA: If you’re protesting today, turn the biometrics on your phone OFF. No facial recognition, no fingerprint, PASSCODE ACCESS ONLY. Law enforcement can make you unlock your phone with those, but they can’t make you use your passcode. That gives you a case in court should they go that route anyway.

Authorities are offering up to $2,500 for information leading to the arrest of a man on a black electric bike.

Gentle reminder that Saturday, 14 June, is #NoKingsDay Please visit www.nokings.org to find the protest nearest you. #AltCitizen

PBS Kids posted this on Instagram. I think its perfect heading into this weekend. Protest Saturday June 14. Make your voices heard! Bring a friend and be safe!

📢 Protest Advice - Tear Gas 🪧 If you are protesting tomorrow - this video has great advice for preparing for and responding to tear gas. No makeup, contacts, etc. If you live near a protest site - consider placing buckets of clean water outside your home so protestors have easy access. 🪣

Boston's No Kings parade tomorrow would have clashed with the Pride Parade so the city has decided to lump everything together and call it "NO KINGS, but YAAAAS Queen!" Go Boston!

Tomorrow is the big day. Our goal: to show the power of the 3.5% rule right here in the U.S. Over 100,000 coalition members and their families will be attending events across the country to help as needed.

We’ll keep you updated on turnout, but tomorrow, our page won’t be posting photos or videos for safety reasons. We’ve held back for a reason. Now we’re counting on you. Take photos and video of everything. Share it far and wide to help flood every platform. Let the world see what’s happening!

Darkness doesn’t drive out darkness. Only light can do that. Still, after everything we’ve seen from this administration, we wouldn’t be doing our job if we didn’t help you prepare. Here’s what to bring:

And if you meet a coalition member? Just remember the first rule of fight club.

A few reminders: - Disable Face ID and use a passcode, just in case.

- Switch to airplane mode to help prevent cell phone interception. - We’re monitoring for cell-site simulators, these have been deployed at protests before. If detected, we’ll issue alerts. - Use the buddy system. Stick with your buddy, just like in the park.

- Bring a battery pack, your phone will drain quickly. - Use Signal with disappearing messages if you’re coordinating with others. - Carry a notepad and pen to record badge numbers or incidents.

- Water - First aid kit - Eye protection - A mask - Emergency contact’s phone number, memorized or written down

Be safe out there, fam.

Hey folks, I have a HUGE request from the Trevor Project and would appreciate help getting the word out. Trevor is now recruiting for it's 2025 National Youth Survey. They need people 13-24, LGBTQ+, in the United States to take it. This research is critical to LGBTQ+ rights. Take it here:

How would you engage in a nationwide strike? 1️⃣ I would be there and bring others with me. 2️⃣️ I would need to believe it was big enough to make a difference. 3️⃣ I would support others but can’t participate myself. 4️⃣ This is too risky or not my way of resisting. 5️⃣ I don’t support this. 📊 Show results
