This is the playbook, folks. If you're not paying attention now and doing something about it, then you're going to have to sit down the rest of your life because democracy is being taken away. Do not be quiet in this moment.

This news brings both relief and anger. We are relieved that Andry is alive and is not in a Salvadoran gulag, but Andry's due process rights continue to be denied as he now returns to a country he fled due to persecution.

In another timeline, my prosthetist dad joins me in a protest over ICE’s treatment of double amputee Rodney Taylor. In this timeline he’s regurgitating MAGA Facebook slop in his comfy suburban home. 💔

IMPORTANT: Organizers ask that NO ONE bring:    •   Umbrellas    •   Chairs    •   Sticks or poles for signs Nothing that could be mistaken for a weapon. Let’s keep this safe, peaceful, and powerful. See you on the bridge. 🇺🇸

AOC is calling out colleagues for stock trades before tariffs were paused: “Any member of Congress who purchased stocks in the last 48 hrs should probably disclose that now … It’s time to ban insider trading in Congress.” AOC is absolutely right. More here: www.dworkinsubstack.com/p/saturdays-...

Gotta correct the media again on something. The administration is not sending migrants to a mega prison in El Salvador. They’re sending human beings to a concentration camp.

Not all “Hands Off” events were in-person. I attended two virtual events centering chronically ill and disabled people for @motherjones.com, who are terrified about attacks to Medicaid, Section 504, research funding, education and more. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

For some disabled protestors, “Hands Off” went virtual

Black people, especially Black women, have been carrying the fight for democracy and human rights on our backs for too long. It’s time for others to step up. This Saturday’s protests around the country are a good place to start if you haven’t been engaged. #HandsOff handsoff2025.com
Flyer for Atlanta location Hands Off protest to be held Saturday, April 5, starting at 12:30 at Piedmont Park with a 1pm march to the GA State Capitol, and then a 2:30 rally at Liberty Plaza.

The fact that everything around us is burning to the ground & some people still have no clue that they voted for the arsonist or are complicit in the arson is absolutely mind boggling. People are ok with it so long as the black woman isn’t their President 🤯. America, we have a problem!

Elon Musk’s “move fast, break things” approach doesn’t work when you’re talking about programs that keep people alive. He “accidentally” fired nuclear bomb specialists, people tracking Ebola and bird flu, and the people who answer the VA crisis hotline.

He wore the cheesehead hat in WI. Spent $20 million. Paid people to sign petitions. Paid people to canvas. Did million dollar giveaways. A rally. TV interviews. But I guess people in Wisconsin didn’t appreciate an oligarch trying to buy their civil liberties.
