Attorney General Bonta Celebrates Supreme Court Victory Affirming Constitutional Right to Birthright Citizenship https://oag.ca.gov/news/press-releases/attorney-general-bonta-celebrates-supreme-court-victory-affirming-constitutional

I often feel that Gary Legum of Wonkette is the only reporter making sense about the Trump regime. This, on the regime’s planned fireworks display in DC, is an example. https://www.wonkette.com/p/park-service-warns-public-to-avoid

Trump’s personal army/police detained a nun walking to mass, dressed in her habit. They held her in custody until public outcry led to her release. Don’t forget: we live in a county whose federal government, and many states’ governments, are controlled by Republican Fascism. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026/jun/30/ice-nun-detained-released-texas

ICE is delivering warning letters to Americans who have been critical. A New Yorker returning from vacation was tracked down by them as they sought to give him the threat. https://www.syracuse.com/news/2026/06/another-ice-threat-visit-how-did-agents-track-down-this-critic-on-his-vacation.html

There has never been a ceasefire in Trump’s war of choice with Iran. @guardian pls stop using phrases like “…as the ceasefire between the US and Iran that reopened the strait of Hormuz undergoes its greatest test yet .” https://www.theguardian.com/world/2026/jun/26/us-says-it-struck-iran-targets-after-attack-on-cargo-ship-on-the-strait-of-hormuz

Attorney General Bonta Secures Back-to-Back Victories for Democracy, Court Blocks President Trump’s Second Elections Executive Order https://oag.ca.gov/news/press-releases/attorney-general-bonta-secures-back-back-victories-democracy-court-blocks

Here’s a very accessible explication of how Trump is trying to use the USPS to control voting in the midterms, how unconstitutional it is, why we can’t count on the Roberts court to respect that obvious point, and how much power states clearly have to run elections as they choose to and therefore to circumvent Trump and any rulings from the corrupt Supreme Court. https://talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/anti-constitution-extortion-and-trumps-vote-rigging-schemes/sharetoken/e5823db5-35ff-42f4-8af0-c3a8926515e6

I also like Josh Marshall’s name for states who fight the Trump regime: Free States. #LawFedi

There is plenty of bad news in U.S. politics today, but the Senate’s passage of this resolution to limit Trump’s use of armed forces in Iran is good and significant. Even though it does not legally bind Trump, it is an assertion of Congress’s authority and a sign of how unpopular Trump’s war of choice is. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026/jun/23/trump-iran-war-powers-resolution

#NewMexico is the linchpin of progressivism in the American southwest. The Republican Fascist Party knows this. It and its supporters pour money into our elections in an effort switch NM from blue to red. There are parts of the state that already tilt red. But throughout NM there are grassroots progressive groups fighting not only to keep NM blue, but to make it ever more genuinely progressive. 2/

Many thanks to those who have boosted and/or chipped in. If you live in #NewMexico it may be obvious why you should support Land of Action. If it isn’t, or you are a progressive elsewhere who is fighting for constitutional democracy, civil rights, and government for the general welfare, I’d like to explain why supporting the effort with a few bucks makes sense. /1 https://landofaction.org

#LandofAction also decided to support #SantaFe Human Rights Alliance and its #Pride Festival this coming Saturday, 6/27, by buying booth space and renting necessary equipment. We want to show our full and enthusiastic commitment to the LGBTQ+ community in #NewMexico and beyond. We’ve invited groups from across New Mexico to share information about themselves via our booth. And we will be publicizing Land of Action and the campaign for free and fair elections in our state. 6/

#LandofAction is supporting and facilitating a growing statewide campaign on the importance of - and threats to - free and fair elections in #NewMexico. I am making materials to be used throughout the state between now and the 2026 general election. 5/

I hope #LandofAction will also become a model for grassroots progressive networking, mutual support, and empowerment in other states.

So, I’m putting much of my activist time and effort into growing Land of Action. I had initially thought its presence would be primarily online. But LoA has already attracted volunteers and interest from around #NewMexico! 4/

States like Nevada and Arizona will never move toward American progressivism without #NewMexico leading the way. In fact, New Mexico serves as an example and beacon for progressives to our south, in Texas.

Our population is small and spread out, which can make statewide organizing, communication, and action challenging. So I founded #LandofAction to serve as an umbrella and resource for grassroots progressive groups across NM. https://www.landofaction.org/mission-statement/ 3/

Which brings me to my ask of this community: if you have $5 to support #LandofAction, grassroots progressivism #NewMexico and #Pride, I’d appreciate your help. You can contribute via my kofi link, https://ko-fi.com/heidi36465.

I never take the generosity of folks here for granted. I try to fundraise for causes relevant to progressives across the U.S. and even beyond. This is why I’ve taken the time to explain why Land of Action and NM grassroots progressivism matters beyond my state. 8/8

I plan to run #LandofAction on a shoestring budget for as long as possible, partly to show how much support and facilitation we can provide #NewMexico grassroots progressive groups without spending a lot of money. It has been easy for me to cover basic expenses so far. But #Pride takes some funds, especially to print some bookmarks promoting LoA and its work. So, I am reaching out to raise $500, with $470 to go. 7/
