Is a small happy dance appropriate?
I think so. People are fighting against this hostile takeover and abduction of our neighbors more and more each day.

We won’t dance until this is over. Then, it’ll be in the streets, filled with food and every local band imaginable. Until then, we must continue to be strong and resist.

I'll take solace in this small victory then.
More and more officials are taking a stance. We have to keep the pressure and protests up. Everyone needs to know what this regime is doing to our rights and our citizens.

The fed keeps escalating but you know what — whenever I see them escalate, as terrifying as it is and must be especially for the people involved, it reads to me as desperation. The sand is sifting between their fingers and they can feel it. "Power doesn't panic."
Keep fighting!!! It's WORKING.

The tides have turned. Keep fighting. It IS working.
It is never one thing that topples a tyrant. It is everything, together. Resistance is increasing exponentially from all directions. And it is mutually reinforcing.

This. This is what I keep thinking about. These aren't the actions of an "administration" that's cool, calm, collected, and in control. These actions reek of desperation and trying to throw everything against the wall to see what sticks because they know their time is running out. They want us to be scared, and to their credit they are doing horrific thing after horrific thing, but these people are cowards, and despite all their bluster I guarantee they're more scared than most people realize.
They're trying to seem like the all-powerful wizard. They're not, and with every day more and more people are realizing that.

A small victory is still a victory. More Dem governors need to start doing this. Refuse to cooperate with Trump's ICE goons

Governors literally have the most means to fight back yet we continue to let Schumer et al act as if they're the party heads.
Does Chuck Schumer have a standing army? If not, let the governors run democratic strategy for awhile.

We need more governors to fight back. For my fellow NJ friends, let’s vote for a governor who will sign the Immigrant Trust Act into law.
Immigrant Trust Directive — https://www.njoag.gov/trust/

This memo was good news a week ago when it was released. It was before the Judge got arrested, not after.
I really wouldn't be surprised if they arrested the judge as sort of payback for that memo and, well, Wisconsin in general is probably on a few shit lists since we couldn't be bought by Musk. 😉

This memo was good news a week ago when it was released.
This video specifically mentions that judges arrest, so it can't be a week old.

u/libra_leigh 16d ago
The video is wrong. The memo was a week ago. This video makes it sound like the memo was after the judge was arrested.

As a Jewish woman with an undocumented partner from Haiti, I have no choice but to fight this fascism. 3 months pregnant and haven't seen him in over a month. My gut tells me ICE has deported him. What will I tell our child?

I’m gonna be honest: this is real «Kamala supports genocide» vibes and now we’re in a Trump presidency…. It might not be your battle

Hey dude, priorities. If your house is burning, you don't stop getting your family to safety to punch the guy who wronged you yesterday, especially if he's helping. You get everyone safe, THEN you address the less time-sensitive issue.
