For @truthout.org I wrote an analysis of the mass deportation boom during 2025. Amid all the spectacle, the passage of the funding bill in July was an ominous milestone in the history of U.S. immigration policy and the Trump administration's aspiring fascism.

"[E]mbrace uncertainty as a terrain of glorious possibility. Let this uncertainty ground you rather than make you fearful."
You rise to the level of your training and practice, not to the level of your imagined self.
So it's extremely important to get skilled up and to practice. That's what all of the people getting trained in ICE Watch are doing.
joy as resistance is for those for whom joy is actively repressed, elided, or otherwise made impossible. some of you actually need to increase your distress tolerance and go talk to those people at the dinner table idk man

This is 100% true, just as the press spent ZERO time on the attempted mass assassination of the entirety of democratic leadership through pipe bombs just a few years ago. It’s literally never even discussed! A MAGA terrorist tried to kill all of the leading dems!
remarkable stuff. Listen with gratitude and resolve
The No Kings folks are holding Organizer training for anyone who would like to get started with all these good ideas :)

NOT. SWIM GOGGLES.
Friends.
Do not wear swim goggles at a protest.
