"Masked federal agents are kidnapping and killing our neighbors, on the streets and behind the bars of hundreds of #detentionCenters across the country. In #HowToCloseACamp, award-winning journalist and translator #JohnWashington offers a galvanizing, clear-eyed case for why we must close these camps—and how to do it."

"Brought under the Ku Klux Klan Act of 1871, the lawsuit says the co-conspirators sought to terrorize and make an example of Mr. Khalil and other non-citizen Palestinian rights advocates in an effort to intimidate and weaken the growing movement for #PalestinianSolidarity."

‘#GoodTrouble’ #protesters rally in #BangorME against the #Trump administration

by Annie Rupertus July 17, 2025

"About 200 people gathered on Stillwater Avenue near the Bangor Mall Thursday evening to rally against the Trump administration in honor of the late congressman and civil rights activist #JohnLewis.

"The event was the latest in a series of nationwide protests broadly opposing President Donald Trump’s policies, with '#GoodTroubleLivesOn' events planned in more than 1,500 locations across all 50 states, according to The Guardian.

"More than 20 Maine communities participated in Thursday’s protests. The Bangor event was organized by #IndivisibleBangor, a progressive advocacy group that formed after the 2016 election to oppose Trump’s agenda. Indivisible has thousands of chapters across the country.

"The protest aimed to embody Lewis’s appeal for Americans to get into 'good trouble, #NecessaryTrouble,' in pursuit of #SocialJustice, according to organizer Mary Ann Larson.

" 'People are waking up,' Larson said, noting she was especially concerned about the recently passed budget reconciliation bill and what it will mean for #RuralMaine hospitals and people who rely on #FoodStamps funded by the federal government.

"Thursday’s protest attendees were mostly older adults. Many brought American flags and pro-democracy signs with messages like '#NoKings in America' and 'imagine being afraid of #diversity more than #dictatorship' — similar messaging to the larger 'No Kings' rally last month, which saw more than 1,000 participants in Bangor.

"The group seemed to get mostly positive responses from drivers passing by on the busy Bangor road, who often honked or waved out of their windows at the crowd lined up on the curb between Chick-fil-A and Washville.

"One attendee, artist Bernice Cross, wore a handmade jacket with painted American flag imagery. She drove to the protest from Greenbush in a car she painted with abstract art and #BlackLivesMatter messaging in 2020 in response to the murder of #GeorgeFloyd by a Minneapolis police officer.

"Cross came out because 'I love America,' she said, and in her view, Trump is destroying America and the values it was founded on.

"For Cynthia Purmort and Mary Ann Labue of Cape Cod, who drove down to Bangor from their camp in Willimantic, a desire to defend the Constitution and individual freedoms were key in bringing them out to the protest.

" 'These are desperate times,' Purmort said.

"Many rallygoers also mentioned defending #immigrants as a key issue, with some chanting, 'Hey hey! Ho ho! #StephenMiller’s got to go' in reference to Trump’s #HomelandSecurity advisor.

"Multiple protesters also expressed concerns about the measure approved by the Senate Thursday that would slash funding for #PublicBroadcasting and international aid [#USAID].

"Thursday’s rally was planned to coincide with the five-year anniversary of Lewis’s death.

"He was a key figure in the #CivilRights Movement who spent decades advocating for #RacialJustice and nonviolent #resistance. He is especially known for leading over 600 voting rights protesters on an #Alabama march from #SelmaToMontgomery in 1965 that is widely credited with spurring the passage of the landmark #VotingRightsAct.

"Alabama state troopers attacked the nonviolent marchers on Selma’s #EdmundPettusBridge and fractured Lewis’s skull, but he survived and later was elected to represent an Atlanta district in the U.S. Congress in 1986, serving until he died of pancreatic cancer in 2020."

You do the right thing because it's the right thing to do.

It is in fact very simple.

‪Not impeaching is perceived as exoneration. It normalizes crime at the highest levels of gov't.

It was a perilous road to tread but Paul Ryan, Nancy Pelosi, and the whole gang ran fast AF into that abyss.

Establishing the principle that shameless criminals get removed is always a good thing.

It would also put new POTUS J.D. on notice that he can be removed just as easily.

Dear Sean Casten,

Declaring defeat before you even start to fight is dumb AF.

Telling the world you're impotent so you're just gonna be a quitter and wait around 'till the next election is pathetic wimpy dishonorable crap.

re: "Why would you continue to do the same thing over and over for the same results."

Did you win the 1st time you ever played tennis? Were you chess champion the 1st time you entered the tournament?

Did you give up everything you ever tried if you didn't win the 1st two times?

so like WTF?

a successful impeachment and removal of Trump would clearly show Vance that if he violates the law or the Constitution he too can be impeached and removed. There is no downside here.

This guy seems to be saying 5 people in line for the presidency all want to torch the Constitution, so we should abandon all efforts to defend our Democracy, roll over & play dead. sorry man, that's a big fuck no from me. if we have to impeach 100 or 100,000 fascist thugs we'll keep fighting

😱 Family member condemns use of #ArmoredVehicle, #StunGrenades in #PhoenixArizona #ICEArrest

Daniel Gonzalez, February 3, 2025

"A family member is speaking out against an #ICE operation in northwest Phoenix on Sunday, calling it an unnecessary use of force that involved an armored vehicle, flash bang grenades and several dozen ICE agents and police dressed in military-style gear to arrest a single person, a 61-year-old man in poor health.

"Sunday's arrest in Phoenix took place amid President Donald Trump's nationwide immigration crackdown launched just over two weeks ago on Trump's first day in office.

"Videos of the ICE operation show an armored vehicle equipped with a long #BatteringRam rolling through a residential neighborhood in daylight and then pulling up in front of a home as unmarked vehicles with sirens sounding and lights flashing zoom in and block off streets.

"As the battering ram lowers there is a sudden flash and explosion in front of the home followed by the voice of an officer over a police loudspeaker who says, 'This is the police with a warrant. Exit the residence immediately with your hands empty and above your head.' A second flash and explosion can be heard as the officer speaks.

"The videos were shared by #Marco =Garcia, the son of the man arrested; immigrant activist #NatallyCruz, director of #PuenteArizona; and others on social media."
