Justice Kavanaugh Should Be Mocked with eponymous nouns. Arrested, maybe beaten, before their ID checks out? Kavanaugh Stop. Zip-ties are Kavanaugh Kuffs. Let him know that will go to his grave.

This conflict is old as time— too much money & power accrues with too few. Our wealth becomes the crop they harvest. We should consider, for instance, No Shop Fridays, that tens of millions can weekly show solidarity that cannot be hidden or ignored.

All of us living with the Trump regime's abuses of power struggle to get sufficient perspective to understand its evolution from one horrifying type of action to the next. TPM's recognition of a turning point where "President Trump and GOP elected officials started using the assassination of Charlie Kirk to paint all political opposition as terroristic, violent, and radical," since which "the rhetoric has shifted to a darker, more ominous place than we’ve seen in U.S. politics in at least a century" is helpful in this regard. Labeling all legitimate opposition as "left-wing radicals" allows politicians and influencers to call for violence against ordinary people in the name of "cleansing." Historical precedents abound -- we have to take full stock of what past authoritarian/fascist patterns portend.

Ken Paxton is the Fascist's Fascist. He only plays well in Texas (thank God)

I just read that an email of Kirk's in which he questioned US policy about the war in Gaza. Question for the regime: If protesting the US position on Gaza is antisemitic and grounds for both prosecution and for refusing funding to colleges, why doesn't the same apply to Kirk's organization?

A friend sent me this from Portland.

Sorry. It was a group of civilians in clown costumes standing near a group of National Guards in full combat outfits.

I've been seeing some groups countering ICE with humor. Donuts on fishing poles. People dressed in costumes. Kids dancing.
