    I've been a member of the #NationalLawyersGuild since law school, when I first read the infamous "Disorientation Handbook," which taught me that I could and should subvert my law school education, but also that there were many other lawyers and legal workers who were committed to a very different way of doing law.

    The #NLG is at a critical time in its history, with the #Trump administration targeting the organization for its solidarity work and its commitment to legal organizing against #fascism

    Please consider giving to this campaign to ensure that the NLG has the resources it needs to continue the struggle.

  2. CW: CW: dehumanisation, death threats, fascism, camps, hate speech

    There is a German phrase I keep coming back to: soziale Verrohung.

    Social brutality. The coarsening of society. The point where cruelty stops being shocking and starts becoming conversational.

    And honestly? We are watching it happen in real time.

    People aren't merely saying, “I disagree with you” anymore.
    They are saying:
    You are degenerate.
    You are vermin.
    You are unworthy of living.
    You should be killed.
    You should be sent to the camps.

    And increasingly, they aren't even bothering to hide behind anonymous accounts.

    Full names. Real photographs. Proudly attached to it.

    That should frighten us.

    Because dehumanisation is not just “strong language”. It is how cruelty becomes socially acceptable. First someone is annoying. Then disgusting. Then dangerous. Then somehow no longer quite human.

    History has a rather ugly filing cabinet full of examples.

    So no, I am not going to politely debate whether my friends, my community, or anyone else is sufficiently “worthy” of dignity.

    Human rights are not a popularity contest.

    And if your politics requires treating other human beings as disposable, perhaps the problem isn't that the rest of us need to become more tolerant.

    Perhaps your politics is simply fucking monstrous.

  3. CW: CW: Fascism, racism, Islamism, white supremacy, violence

    Today I was told I should leave Europe because I apparently hate white people so much.

    Why?

    Because I keep fighting fascism and Nazis.

    And apparently, according to this person, my great ideological failure is that I refuse to name Muslims as the “main threat.”

    Seriously?

    The chap I buy my kebabs from is Muslim. The family running the grocery store across the street is Muslim.

    The people who tried to beat me up in Utrecht were Czechs. The woman who recently verbally attacked me on the U-Bahn was Christian, and white.

    And yes, the attacker at the Berlin CSD was an Islamist.

    And that is precisely my fucking point.

    I fight fascism.

    White supremacist fascism. Christian fundamentalism. Islamism. Nationalism. Authoritarianism. Whatever flavour of hatred comes crawling out from under whatever rock it has chosen to call home.

    I am not going to participate in the fascist fantasy that Muslims are the enemy while white men are apparently waiting nobly in the wings to save civilisation.

    Sorry. I've met history.

    I know what hateful white men are capable of when they decide that their hatred gives them permission to hurt people.

    And frankly?

    I know people I would much rather stand beside.

    My kebab vendor.

    That Muslim family at the grocery store.

    People who simply get on with their lives, treat me like a human being, and don't require me to pass some ridiculous racial purity test before they'll show me basic decency.

    So keep your fucking race-war fantasies to yourself.

    I judge people by their actions.

    Actually, scratch that.

    I don't collectively judge groups of people at all.

    Except fascists.

    Because fascism isn't a skin colour, an ethnicity, a religion, or a continent.

    It's a choice.

    And if you've chosen fascism, congratulations: you've chosen me as your problem.

    I have no intention of making your life comfortable.

  4. CW: CW: Fascism, political violence, historical revisionism

    Fascism never lasts.

    It may swagger. It may acquire uniforms, flags, ministries, billionaires, television channels and an absolutely astonishing number of mediocre men with very strong opinions.
    But eventually, it breaks.

    Because evil has terrible long-term management skills.

    And then comes the most entertaining part.

    The people who spent years cheering for it will suddenly develop an acute case of “Oh, I was never really one of them.”

    The ones who marched will say they were merely observing.

    The ones who applauded will insist they were being ironic.

    The ones who spread the propaganda will suddenly discover the nuanced political thinker hiding somewhere underneath all that fascist garbage.

    And the ones who demanded cruelty will solemnly announce that they always supported human rights.

    Oh, Sweetie.
    We have evidence.

    That is why we screenshot.
    Why we download.
    Why we archive videos.
    Why we preserve posts, speeches, usernames, dates and declarations.

    Not because we are building some little book of grudges.
    Because memory is a weapon against historical laundering.

    Because victims deserve the truth. And perpetrators deserve no hiding space.

    Fascism will end.
    The uniforms will come off.
    The flags will disappear.
    The statues will come down.
    And suddenly everyone will have been a brave little resistance fighter all along.

    Except...
    We kept the screenshots.
    We kept the videos.
    We kept the archives.
    So when the reckoning comes, and it will come, there will be nowhere for these people to hide behind “I didn't know.”

    We will know.

    History will know.

    And, regrettably for the fascist revisionists, the internet has a rather better memory than they do.

    Archive everything.
    Let them lie later.
    We have work to do now.

  6. I needed a pep talk from my brother today. We live in Tennessee...a state that has self-knighted as the "blueprint" for ICE/DHS/CBP (and we have actual neo-nazi training camps here). After I hung up, I heard Kamala Harris' chant, "When we fight, WE WIN!" Minneapolis, Portland, LA, Memphis. They are fighting. Fighting for them and fighting for America. They have already won by virtue of resisting fascism.

  7. A noise protest at #Home2Suites by #Hilton resulted in multiple #ICENazis scurrying to checkout, graffiti on the hotel, smashed front window, broken automatic doors, a solo - seemingly drunk/self-injured ICENazi (he was bleeding from nose/hands & no one had touched him) trying to scare off protestors before a ton of his backup arrived & threw a lot of smoke bombs/fired tear gas. Once they left, a few protestors went back in front of the hotel & made noise again, joined by many cars - all honking their horns. Then MPD & SWAT arrived to clear out everyone remaining.

    The protest worked to get ICENazis to leave the hotel & not have a peaceful night. Private property damage is covered by corporate insurance. Capital is of lesser value than human lives - for anyone who judges vandalism from protestors. You can repair material damages. You can't bring murdered people back to life & that damage is irreparable.

    Adapted from Arne Sejr’s 10 Commandments for Danes:
    You shall do a bad job for the MAGAS.
    You shall work slowly for the MAGAS.
    You shall destroy everything which may be of benefit to the MAGA.
    You shall delay all transport.
    You shall boycott MAGA films and papers.
    You must not shop at MAGA stores.
    You shall treat traitors for what they are worth.
    You shall protect anyone chased by ICE.

    "Let’s be clear about what happened here: these men were not sent to D.C. to defend the country. They were not deployed to respond to a surge in crime. They weren’t called in to keep our nation’s capital city safe. They were stationed on American streets as political props in a fascist’s authoritarian theater—and that made them targets."

  10. Just Follow Orders Or Obey The Law?

    By Charli Carpenter and Geraldine Santoso, Scheer Post.

    November 22, 2025

    "One of the lawmakers, Sen. Elissa Slotkin, told The New York Times that she had heard from troops currently serving that they were worried about their own liability in actions such as the ones in the Caribbean.

    "This is not the first time Trump has put members of the military in situations whose legality has been questioned. But a large percentage of service members understand their duty to follow the law in such a difficult moment."

  11. Yikes! Apparently, #Trump is accusing these #Veterans of #sedition!

    #Goodlander is among Democratic lawmakers urging military to reject '#IllegalOrders'

    New Hampshire Public Radio | By Josh Rogers
    Published November 19, 2025

    Excerpt: "New Hampshire Rep. #MaggieGoodlander joined five other Democratic lawmakers with military or intelligence backgrounds in an online video Tuesday to advise members of the U.S. armed forces that they should refuse to carry out 'illegal orders.'

    "The video didn’t identify any specific order or U.S military action as 'illegal,' but the message comes at a time of flaring tension between Democrats and the #Trump administration over the administration’s deployment of the #NationalGuard to patrol American cities and military strikes against #Venezuelan drug cartels that are believed to have killed more than 80 people.

    " 'Right now, the threats to our #Constitution aren’t just coming from abroad, but from right here at home,' the Democrats said as they took turns reading a single statement. 'Our laws are clear: You can refuse illegal orders.'

    " 'Don’t give up the ship,' the message ended.

    "Sen. #ElissaSlotkin of Michigan, a former CIA analyst who served in Iraq, led the messaging effort. It comes on the heels of Sloktin introducing legislation aimed at limiting the president's power to deploy National Guard troops in American cities.

    " 'I’ve joined my colleagues in sending a clear message to our brave women and men in uniform,' Goodlander said in a statement. 'We stand with you at a moment when you have been put in a terrible position by a president and a secretary of defense who are testing the boundaries of the law here at home.”

    "In addition to Goodlander — a former U.S. Naval Reserve intelligence officer — the video features Navy veteran and former astronaut Sen. #MarkKelly of Arizona; Rep. #ChrisDeluzio of Pennsylvania, who also served in the Navy; Rep. #JasonCrow of Colorado, a former Army Ranger; and Rep. #ChrissyHoulahan of Pennsylvania, an Air Force veteran."

    Trump Suggests Death Penalty for ‘#Seditious’ Democratic Lawmakers Who Condemned ‘Illegal’ Military Orders

    “Each one of these traitors to our Country should be ARRESTED AND PUT ON TRIAL," the president adds

    by Corbin Bolies
    Thu, November 20, 2025 at 11:57 AM EST

    "President Donald Trump said on Thursday that a half-dozen Democratic lawmakers who issued a video urging military officials to 'refuse illegal orders' should be tried for seditious behavior, a crime he said was 'punishable by death!' "

    "Jeremiah’s words ring across the centuries: “They say ‘Peace, peace,’ when there is no peace.” The prophet’s job, then and now, is to speak the truth loud and clear about what we’re actually witnessing. THIS IS NOT PEACE! These aren’t the actions of a peacemaker. And those of us who believe in genuine peace—costly peace, justice-shaped peace, prophetic peace—must say so, openly and without apology."

    "A joyous, mocking menagerie of frogs, axolotls, and at least one giant pink hippo made its way down Seventh Avenue in Manhattan on Saturday, alongside thousands of others, in a defiant protest that formed part of the nationwide '#NoKings' rallies."

    Thousands rally in Portland in nationwide protest against Trump administration policies

    by Allyson Lapierre, WGMESat, October 18th 2025

    Excerpt: "Attendees say this is the largest turnout they have seen at a Portland rally to date.

    " 'I love the crowd, and it feels good to be around people who are working to protect the Constitution of the United States because I love America, and I want our country to be great,' Elizabeth said.

    "Saturday's Portland rally was not the first, and event organizers say it won't be the last."

    #NoKings rally draws nearly 200 in #HoultonME

    by Kathleen Phalen Tomaselli

    HOULTON, Maine — "Spanning from the former Walgreens in Houlton to Dominos, protesters of all ages on Saturday protested the Trump administration as part of the nationwide No Kings day.

    "The Houlton event, with more than double the number of protesters at the first No Kings rally in June, is one of at least 37 that were planned across Maine. Joining the projected 2,600 events spanning the U.S., including such remote locations as Kodiak, Alaska, many in Houlton said they are fighting #authoritarianism together.

    " 'I think America needs to re-learn what it means to be together right now. We are not,' said Gene Barnes of Houlton. 'Right now there is so much division and it’s so divisive.'

    "By midday Saturday, No Kings organizers said that millions of Americans had already joined peaceful demonstrations in over 800 cities and towns, with another nearly 1,900 events planned later in the day across the country as part of the No Kings Day of Peaceful Action.

    "Houlton organizers have been regularly holding rallies in support of the nation’s democracy in the historic downtown near the peace pole. But for Saturday’s event they decided to move to the larger, more visible location on North Street, said Mary Beth DiMarco, who works with a local grassroots group in organizing these events.

    "As protestors waved signs and flags with messages to restore democracy and constitutional freedoms, four lanes of traffic were honking in support.

    "Aviendha Adams, 8, who was leading a freedom chant on a megaphone during the rally, told her mother, Lavinia Lengele, the she is protesting, 'Because I am a girl and I don’t want boys and men bullying me and telling me what to do.'

    "Many in the Houlton crowd were from the area, but people from Connecticut and Nova Scotia also joined the hour-long event.

    " 'I want to make sure all the minority communities know they have a voice and people who are fighting for them,' said Jackson Adams, 16. 'Human rights are for everyone. They didn’t protest at Stonewall for me to quit fighting now.' "

  16. "Following the release of the graphic novel and its 2005 film adaptation, this design came to represent broad protest, later also becoming a symbol for the online #hacktivist group '#Anonymous' after appearing in web forums, used in Project Chanology, the #Occupy movement, Anonymous for the Voiceless, and other #AntiEstablishment protests around the world. This has led to the mask also being known by the alternate name of the Anonymous mask.

    "The British comic book series #VForVendetta, which started in 1982, centers on a #vigilante's efforts to destroy an #authoritarian government in a #dystopian future United Kingdom. When developing the story, illustrator David Lloyd made a handwritten note on the intended #anarchist protagonist, V: 'Why don't we portray him as a resurrected Guy Fawkes, complete with one of those papier-mâché masks, in a cape and a conical hat? He'd look really bizarre and it would give #GuyFawkes the image he's deserved all these years. We shouldn't burn the chap every Nov. 5th but celebrate his attempt to blow up Parliament!' Writer Alan Moore commented that, due to Lloyd's idea, 'All of the various fragments in my head suddenly fell into place, united behind the single image of a Guy Fawkes mask.'

    "Moore also noted, 'how interesting it was that we should have taken up the image right at the point where it was apparently being purged from the annals of English iconography.' "

    Several events are scheduled around Maine, including in #BathME, #BrunswickME, #FreeportME, #RocklandME and #WiscassetME.

    October 14, 2025

    "No Kings, a peaceful protest movement against the Trump administration, has recently announced there are now over 2,500 community events scheduled for its Day of Peaceful Action on Saturday, Oct. 18. These events are organized by average Americans across personal, political and geographic demographics in all 50 states.

    "There are five event locations in the Midcoast: the corner of Main and School streets in Freeport, 8-11 a.m.; Wiscasset Bridge on Route 1, 10-11 a.m.; 191 Maine St., Brunswick, 11:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.; Rockland’s Chapman Park, 294 Main St., noon to 1 p.m.; and Sagadahoc Bridge in Bath, 1-2 p.m. Go to nokings.org/#map to see all No Kings Day of Peaceful Action events.

    "Building on the momentum of the June 14 day of action, which drew more than 5 million people across all 50 states, the #October18 mobilization is the next chapter in the No Kings movement. According to a prepared release, the aim of the Day of Peaceful Action is to send a unified message: We are a nation of equals, and our country will not be ruled by fear or force.

    "Groups organizing the No Kings peaceful protests across the country include #ACLU, #AmericanFederationOfTeachers, #CommonDefense, #50501Movement, #HumanRightsCampaign, #Indivisible, #LeagueOfConservationVoters, #MoveOn, #NationalNursesUnited, #PublicCitizen, #SEIU and #UnitedWeDream, among others.

    "All No Kings events adhere to a shared commitment to nonviolent protest and community safety, the prepared release said. Organizers are trained in de-escalation and are working closely with local partners to ensure peaceful and powerful actions nationwide."

  20. #NoKings’ Unveils a Big New #Trump Protest, and the Stakes Couldn’t Be Higher

    A movement leader tells Rolling Stone about the #NoKings2 demonstrations on #October18, and how they can curb Trump’s #overreach

    "America’s pro-democracy movement is gearing up for what may be its biggest mass-demonstration yet against the increasingly #militaristic Trump administration — which has sent armed troops to occupy the nation’s capital and is threatening to do the same in large cities from Chicago to New Orleans.
    Popular resistance in Trump’s second term has snowballed, in an organic fashion, from a large President’s Day protest in February, through mass demonstrations in April, to the first 'No Kings' protest on Trump’s birthday in June — which drew millions to counter the president’s tin-pot military birthday parade.

    "After a series of smaller summer protests, the movement will be back in the streets and squares and center cities of America, en masse, in October for No Kings 2 — a sequel organizers are expecting to outshine the original, amid revulsion to Trump’s brutal campaign of mass deportation led by masked agents of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (#ICE), and an increasingly lawless president who claims 'a lot' of Americans would 'like a dictator.'

    "No Kings 2 is being organized by a big tent of grassroots and advocacy organizations. One of the most prominent players is #Indivisible, the activist group that sprang to life in the early days of the first Trump administration, and which now counts 2,500 distributed, local chapters nationwide.

    "Rolling Stone spoke to Indivisible co-founder #EzraLevin last week, in advance of No Kings 2 unveiling on Monday. The protest is planned for October 18 — in the aftermath of an unpredictable showdown over government funding that could lead to a #PartialGovernmentShutdown by the end of the month.

    "Levin says the stakes of the protests have never been more urgent, and that organizers are expecting record numbers of #protesters to raise their voices for democracy and against the threats of #dictatorship."

    🚨Police Brutality: In a shocking moment, police at the Ohio-Kentucky border horrifically abuse anti-ICE protesters, with one repeatedly bashing a man at the back of the head. This is Trump's fascist America.

  23. #ColumbiaUniversity #protester #MahmoudKhalil files $20M claim against #Trump administration

    By JAKE OFFENHARTZ
    Updated 3:47 PM EDT, July 10, 2025

    NEW YORK (AP) — "On a recent afternoon, Mahmoud Khalil sat in his Manhattan apartment, cradling his 10-week-old son as he thought back to the pre-dawn hours spent pacing a frigid immigration jail in Louisiana, awaiting news of the child’s birth in New York.

    "For a moment, the outspoken Palestinian activist found himself uncharacteristically speechless.

    " 'I cannot describe the pain of that night,' Khalil said finally, gazing down as the baby, Deen, cooed in his arms. 'This is something I will never forgive.'

    "Now, weeks after regaining his freedom, Khalil is seeking restitution. On Thursday, his lawyers filed a claim for $20 million in damages against the Trump administration, alleging Khalil was #FalselyImprisoned, maliciously prosecuted and smeared as an #antisemite as the government sought to deport him over his prominent role in campus protests.

    "The filing — a precursor to a lawsuit under the #FederalTortClaimsAct — names the #DepartmentOfHomelandSecurity, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement and the #USStateDepartment.

    "It comes as the deportation case against Khalil, a 30-year-old recent graduate student at Columbia University, continues to wind its way through the immigration court system."

  25. [Thread] So, I was at the #SouthPortlandME #HandsOff rally. Not as big as the #PortlandME or #AugustaME ones (I hear Augusta one was HUGE), but we still made an impact! I brought extra signs and found folks willing to hold them up! That's where I needed to be!

  26. Worked on some signs for Saturday. A couple were touch ups. I wanted my #BLM sign to reflect the mural that was erased, and my #ResistFascism sign to be a bit more to the point. The #MainePride sign involved a sticker and some spray painted pine trees. I liked the way it came out.
