- Reposted by Stride Toward Peace & part owner of CanadaBREAKING: A woman was kicked out of a women’s bathroom at a Massachusetts hotel by a security guard who demanded she “prove her gender.” No badge gives you the right to sexually harass someone in a bathroom. This is what fascism looks like in real time. And it’s coming to your city next.
- Reposted by Stride Toward Peace & part owner of CanadaThe U.S. Department of Homeland Security and the U.S. Department of Transportation are illegally forcing states to comply with the administration’s immigration policies or give up billions of dollars in funding for disaster relief and transportation.

If they suspend Habeas Corpus it will be for you and me and whomever this regime decides is unfit, undesirable, and a threat or a problem. This is how it works. This is how it's always worked.
