LOL! I mean...yeah. The internet has been weaponized against Black women and often does trick the masses into hating Black women for no reason. I would really love for this group to unpack why they fell for it tho 🤔

Trump & Hegseth aren't just proposing to livestream an execution for willing viewers. Even if you support the death penalty, consider what happens next: Footage of a man being shot to death, pushed into our kids' feeds. It won't be contained. Hope the parents in the Trump Admin are cool with that

Sending ICE and federal agents to polling places is blatantly illegal, but that’s never stopped Trump before. Our new zine (illustrated by acclaimed comic book artist @gregpak.net) provides a pocket-sized guide on what to do if you see ICE at the polls: indivisible.org/wp-content/u...
WHAT IF YOU SEE ICE AT THE POLLS?
(Don't worry!
Read on for the plan!)

If you see ICE or
have any other trouble when you vote, call

If you're stopped by law enforcement...
• Prioritize staying safe. Remain calm, don't resist. Keep your hands visible.
• Document everything. Record on your phone or ask a bystander to do it.
• Get the agent's badge number, name, and their agency.
• If detained, ask for a lawyer, remain silent, and do not sign anything.
• To invoke your rights sayI want to remain silent" and "I want to speak with a lawyer."
• The Constitution protects your rights no matter your immigration status.

This is dangerous, and the president inciting violence like this will cause real harm. But he will lose. If Minnesotans have proven anything, it’s that we’ll crawl over broken glass and through tear gas to protect our neighbors. These are the deranged screeds of a desperate and flailing loser.

It's good to point out these sorts of lame intimidation efforts. But it's also important to put the ineffectiveness in context. If the goal is to promote voting, flagging the structural limitations of federal threats should be part of that process.

Look, this is bad. Yes. But the Trump admin sent six (6) people to Maricopa and Pima. Where, by my count, there are 404 polling places, spread across 18,000 square miles (each county is ~9k sq mi). What they want is the FEAR to discourage the voting they can't actually prevent.
