BREAKING: Police just surrounded Rev. William Barber, prominent activist and pastor, as he and others prayed in the U.S. Capitol Rontunda.
Police then expelled everyone (including press!) from the Rotunda to (presumably) arrest them.
I've covered protests here a lot. Never seen anything like it.
My superpower? Remembering landline phone numbers from the '90s but not the name of the road I’ve lived on for 5 years. Happy Friday! Brains are weird. 🏳️🌈🧠

Alt Text: A digital flyer with a dark red background promotes the "Save Our Services: LET US WORK Mass Call" event. The main text is in bold white and light blue, with "LET US WORK" in large, uppercase white letters and "MASS CALL" in bold outlined text. Below, the flyer highlights four featured speakers with circular headshots: Senator Chris Murphy (D-CT), Robert Reich (Former Secretary of Labor & Co-Founder of Inequality Media), Liz Shuler (President, AFL-CIO), and Maurice Mitchell (National Director, Working Families Party). The event is scheduled for Thursday, March 13th at 8PM ET / 5PM PT, with a call to action in bold: "Register: bit.ly/march13RSVP." On the left side, logos of supporting organizations are stacked vertically, including the Federal Unionists Network (FUN), AFL-CIO, American Federation of Government Employees (AFGE), International Federation of Professional and Technical Engineers (IFPTE), National Federation of Federal Employees (NFFE), Working Families Party (WFP), and MoveOn. At the bottom, white text reads "+ more!!" indicating additional speakers. The flyer visually emphasizes urgency and collective action against federal worker layoffs.
🚨 Trump and Musk want to fire federal workers, gut public services, and hand our government to billionaires. We’re not letting that happen.
📢 Join us this Thursday at 8PM ET for a mass call to hear how we fight back—together.

Something is shifting. They are still breaking things and stealing things. And they will keep trying to break and to steal. But the propaganda magic around the oligarchical coup is fading. (1/2)
Tell Congress to stop Elon Musk from stealing Americans' tax and other private data! actionnetwork.org/letters/stop... @aftunion.bsky.social
The World War II-era "Simple Sabotage Field Manual" is full of steps that office workers can take to resist leadership.
I asked Elon’s Grok 2 the question of whether and how you could destroy the country through insane trade wars and hijacking Treasury’s payment system.
And I must say, what I got back seems to be a fairly good analysis.
Parenting in 2025 is wild. One minute you’re worried about the flu and what to make for dinner and the next fascists.
How unfortunate

REMINDER: we don't rat on our fellow workers, neighbors, or community members. When in doubt, mind your business. Our solidarity is a precious and powerful thing. We must defend and deepen it, now more than ever.
