“no federal funding CR without DOGE guardrails- passed house”
gives you a script to read to tell your rep to not approve the spending bill. You can plug in your zip/location and it will provide you your reps phone numbers. If their inbox is full, you can call one of their other offices close to you.
harrow the ninth asks the question “what is the first impulse of a genius necromancer when trying to retain any shred of coherency in a river bubble?” and gives the unambiguous answer “write fanfiction”
In case people don’t realize the full extent of what’s going on, we are under siege in Minnesota. I live in an affluent, majority white suburb of Minneapolis, and ICE is all over the place terrorizing people. They showed up at the library, kitted out in their Temu tactical gear, and stormed it.
The library. Please let that sink in.
They’ve pulled weapons on legal observers and physically attacked them. They’re threatening teenagers and children with death. One woman told a story at my, again, affluent, majority white suburban town’s city council meeting this week of being shoved from behind so hard that she fell down by an ICE agent, who then said to her, “Stop touching me.” A man, in tears and begging for our city government to do something to help our neighbors, described having a baton pulled on him. They’re luring people out of their workplaces with lies about “hitting someone’s car in the parking lot” and then abducting them. Citizens and legal residents are being detained. People are being racially profiled and snatched. A teenager (a US citizen) working at Target got dragged out and shoved in a car, then dumped a mile away in a Wal-mart parking lot, beaten up and crying. And all of this is after they murdered Renee Good.
I don’t emphasize the demographics of my particular suburb to say “but this shouldn’t be happening here, we have money!” but to illustrate that the Trump administration has declared war on a US state. Even if you stick your head in the sand because you’re white and won’t be directly targeted, ICE is running traffic lights, speeding, tearing the wrong way on one way streets, and causing nasty accidents because they think they’re above the law. They think it doesn’t matter who they hurt or kill, because they’re being told straight from the top that they can do whatever they want to whoever they want.
We are all under attack, and this is coming to a city near you if we don’t stand up to it. Please stand with Minnesota, as well as LA, Portland, Chicago, and every other place DHS has sent their COD cosplay gestapo. I don’t know what that looks like for you but please, please, don’t ignore this.
I live in Minneapolis. OP is not being dramatic. We will continue this fight, but please everything you can to stand with us because nobody in this country is safe if they get away with these crimes against humanity.
still cannot get over the audacity it takes to adapt a book series about gay people and necromancy fully knowing youre gonna have to censor both the gay people and the necromancy. thats a wild call
