If they're questioning you, they're planning to charge you with something. Don't help them. ALWAYS shut up and demand a lawyer. ALWAYS.
- Serious question for @goobermunch.bsky.social @leftistlawyer.com @chadloder.bsky.social. If you're doing civil disobedience/protests, or doing drugs, or doing illegal shit, and the pigs question you, we all know "STFU and ask for your lawyer". What if the pigs question you for no reason, though?

- Another Republican who ran an explicitly transphobic "bathroom panic" campaign is about to lose her re-election bid
- More people need to constructively engage with the fact that many "red" states remain red because of deliberate, systematic, and violent suppression of Black people's voting rights.
