Don’t look away from this. Looking away from what’s happening here on US soil & pretending to care about something across the world is EXACTLY how we got here. There is no “both sides” or “l voted my conscience“ in 2024 that will excuse what some of y’all helped usher in.

I love that the women I started following on here for their rabid/insightful Celtics fandom are equally likely to post about the dangerous fuckwittery promulgated daily by Trump and co.

“This is one of the most grotesque crimes of our time.”

The US immigrant population generated more in taxes than they received in benefits from all levels of government every year from 1994 to 2023. The Cato study provides the first-ever 30-year analysis of the fiscal effects of immigration on government budgets. https://ow.ly/jy8a50Y8kM3

Bipartisan negotiators released a DHS funding bill that does not significantly reduce ICE and CBP’s funding nor rein in the agencies’ abuses of power. Make no mistake: Any Democrat who votes for this bill is complicit in Trump’s campaign of terror. Grow a spine and vote no.

ICE can and will always go lower. It's absolutely disgusting that they used a 5-year-old child as bait so that they could arrest his father. Murdering U.S. citizens and kidnapping children in front of our eyes is pure evil.

The story of Liam, and Renee Good, and so many others from MN should horrify any American. And the answer is NOT for the opposition party to offer further training to the people terrorizing, kidnapping, and killing their constituents. The trouble with Nazis wasn’t that they needed more training.

My amazing son asked me the other day why he had to be born autistic. Because despite all of the autism pride we have tried to instill in him, he still hears the world’s messages that something is wrong with him. So fuck RFKjr for turning autistics into a bogeyman to advance his public death agenda.

A 15 year old autistic child named Emmanuel Garcia went missing Oct 4th. Houston PD found him & gave him to ICE despite his Mom having filed a missing person’s report. He’s now in an immigration facility for unaccompanied minors. His Mom is pleading for his return: youtu.be/4PQPtimpVQ4

#NoKings #NoKingsWellesley #WellesleyDefendsDemocracy #FueraICE #ProtectOurNeighbors Join us. Speak up. Speak out. Stand up. Don’t let your silence be taken for complacency. Our neighbors need us. The Constitution needs us. Our children need us. Our country needs us.

EXCLUSIVE: Not only does an Excel spreadsheet of Trump mentions in the Epstein files exist, but so do training videos explaining how to flag the files for Trump mentions. Plus, the number of people who had access is larger than previously known. My latest: www.muellershewrote.com/p/the-epstei...

Keep showing up. We the People have a moral obligation to speak out against the decimation of the social safety net, the unjust ICE raids, and overseas and domestic concentration camps!

This. The entire conflict comes down to whether you can think beyond yourself. Some of us are willing to compromise personal benefit for the good of all. Some of us think only about our own wants.

Wellesley, MA’s #NoKings Rally. Crowd estimated at 600 at peak. In the rain!

Just show up tomorrow. Defend your rights, your country, and each other. #mapoli #wellesley #BostonPolitics #nokings #MassachusettsPolitics

On 6/12, DHS Sec’y Kristi Noem said “We are staying here to liberate [LA] from the socialists and the burdensome leadership this governor and mayor have placed on this country and this city.” This use of military force to displace a democratically elected is the very definition of a coup.

None of this is ok. Make your voices heard and attend a No Kings Rally on 6/14. We’re having a local one in Wellesley. 11-12:30. Town Hall Lawn. #mapoli #wellesley

He looked right at her, raised his gun, and shot an an unarmed journalist. “Crossfire” my aching ass

Oh, honey . . . You can’t even get your wife back.

What an epic relief. That’s two people released, and many others to go. What a good reason to give to the ACLU. action.aclu.org/give/pm-dona...

@massgovernor.bsky.social, please do the same for Massachusetts. #MApoli

Massholes should speak out against this inhumane, disgusting behavior. “Humanitarian,” my ass. Make sure all potential Josh Kraft voters are aware of whom his family still supports.

In Massachusetts? Want to do something concrete to fight against ICE raids & the rapid descent into outright fascism? Get with LUCE and do everything you can to support them! www.lucemass.org #chingalamigra #fuckICE #NoOneIsIllegal, #YourBordersKill, #solidarity

I’m about to board my flight to El Salvador, where I hope to meet with senior government officials to discuss the return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia. I also hope to see Kilmar and check on his condition — and remind him that we won’t stop fighting until he’s home.

Hope this helps.
