The SAVE Act would prevent up to 69 million women from voting — because women who change their name after marriage would not have a birth certificate with their legal name on it.

There are now more ICE agents in MN than there are police in the 10 largest metro police departments combined.
Our Police Chief asked them not to come onto our streets, but the administration continues to escalate the situation.

Maybe, just maybe, the mainstream media can focus a little less on colleges for a moment. Maybe they can take their cameras to Gaza and show us the emaciated children who are dying of malnutrition due to Netanyahu’s policies. Maybe they can show us the suffering going on there.
Without protests, we would still live in a segregated country.
Without protests, women would still be second class citizens.
Without protests, the LGBTQ+ community would still be hiding their identities.
8/ All photos etc here are mine, taken a few blocks from my home. I know a lot of tonight will get lost in a swirl of misinformation - I hope this is at least useful to folks who know/trust me, as a first-hand account of some of what unfolded.
A huge well done to the amazing student journalists @WKCRFM radio for keeping the community informed amidst the chaos, and sharing info about the protests when there was a clear effort to keep people away from what was happening.
