Sitting in a crowd of people, some of whom I've just met, some of whom are strangers, and some of whom I love more than life itself... And they're all singing along to "Hey There Delilah", so I'm judging the absolute shit out of every one of them.

it is incredible that the entire high level legal apparatus of the United States is "anything that helps people is impossible, anything that kills people is permitted"

I remember when they were saying they were powerless to return a man they illegally sent to an El Salvador gulag because it would violate that country's national sovereignty.

I agree with this entirely. Talking about it locally also encourages local attention. Find your people w/in your communities.

Given the legality of the operation, feels more like knowing a bank is going to be robbed but not telling the police.

You ever think about how the Roman Senate kept meeting centuries into the reigns of emperors. Hanging out, shooting the shit, giving speeches, and play-acting that their positions of privilege remained positions of power.

the reason people sometimes act madder at democrats than republicans when republicans do impossibly evil shit is the same reason why, if you hired an exterminator to handle a roach infestation and he showed up to feed and play with them instead, your first instinct wouldn’t be to yell at the roaches

My attitude on this is that I'm not calling them because I think I can change their minds. I'm calling them because it is unthinkable to let them do this without hearing how evil and awful they are. My spite powers me. If I can get just 500 people a day to join me, we could fuck up their day.

Tips for calling your electeds
If you're leaving a voicemail, make sure you clearly state your name and where you are calling from. (Zip, etc.)
E.g. If you want them to specifically oppose an amendment, say that, and explain why.
Always clarify if you would like a response, and leave a way for the office to reach you. (Phone number, email, etc.)
Make sure you have a concrete ask or specify a specific opinion. Imagine a staffer asking: "What's the best outcome/resolution for you?" and frame your comment that way.
If you have another issue, bring it up on the phone at the time.
Call your reps and your reps only.

A Canva-mocked up call script re: calling electeds Trump Administration's actions in Venezuela

YOU: Hi, my name is [NAME]. I’m calling from [ZIP CODE].

YOU: I’m calling [MOC] to demand they condemn the U.S.’s actions in Venezuela tonight. The Trump administration has carried out an illegal attack and capture of Maduro that is a clear violation of international sovereignty and will impact relationships will alienate international allies, and [ELECTED] must speak out about this. 

YOU: I am also calling on [MOC] to:

1. Speak plainly about this to their constituents. They can acknowledge the Maduro regime’s abuses AND recognize this as an unlawful extraterritorial detention, 

2. Demand a legal written justification from the Administration, 

3. Hold IMMEDIATE House/Senate Foreign Affairs hearings on the the decision-making, legality, and diplomatic risks of the Maduro operation, 

4. Demand an immediate classified briefing for the Gang of Eight. 

YOU: What happened tonight will have ramifications across the world in the days, weeks and months to come, and we need answers and action taken. 

YOU: [OPTIONAL COMMENTS - DEMAND A RESPONSE]

Marco Rubio is reportedly saying Maduro will stand trial in US courts. Which means it’s now the US administration’s position that US courts can hold foreign presidents, but not the US president, accountable for crimes.

He was killing innocent fishermen and there was nothing coming from the opposition and the media scrambled to justify the murders however they could. The most that they’ll say about a war at this point is that it didn’t follow protocol.

Make sure you take some of the anger you’re feeling right now and use it to contact your officials to demand impeachment now. It’s basically the least we can possibly do in opposition to this, which IMO makes it mandatory.

Every representative, regardless of party. There’s a tendency to assume that Republicans are unbothered by public opinion. But if your federal representatives don’t object to this, they object to their own existence. There’s a non-partisan reason to reject this, and we should argue it.

the question of what is or isn’t a “distraction” from which other thing gets thorny and complicated and risks minimizing some crimes because of their proximity to other crimes when they’re all equally evil, just different flavors. but this is sort of how the pattern seems to manifest itself, to me
