For our #GoodTroubleLivesOn action at the Civic Center in San Rafael, the artist Jean Bolte painted portraits of Lorenzo Saldgado Araujo and Johan Sebastian Duran Guerrero. Their humanity shines through. Jean's Instagram post: www.instagram.com/p/Da6mjQgGne6

Marched in the Corte Madera/Larkspur parade today. We all wore our Statue of Liberty hats. Now, pool party in 50 minutes. Then we all do the banner drop at 6. Much as I hate America, I continue to hold out hope.

A woman (me) with a Statue of Liberty crown and sunglasses and little "No Kings since 1776" flags dressed in a Lady Liberty costume. Standing next to a woman with one of said hats in the brim of her had holding a "Stand Up for Immigrants Happy Birthday USA" sign.

Begging the Marin Board of Supervisors to pass an ICE-free Marin ordinance. Brought the posters the kids made to bring the point home. #ICEisGestapo #NoICEinMarin

Multiple posters such as "Get Out ICE," "No ICE Get Out ICE," and "Stop ICE!" made by elementary school kids in San Rafael. Eight posters on a banner with "Marin Kids Say No ICE!" in the top center

Seen in the East Bay. Bless all the overpass folks!

Sign on overpass, individual letters, white on black boards, which say "He can't even win a war against algae"

On the one hand, I love these posters made by elementary school kids in San Rafael. On the other hand, I hate that they felt compelled to make them. #ICEisGestapo

Of course, it wouldn't be me -- and it wouldn't be photographer Leon Kunestaar -- if he didn't get a shot of me with my mouth open. (Do I ever shut up? Apparently, no.) #De-ICECitizensBank #ICEisGestapo

A woman (me) left arm up holding whistle packets, Marin Rapid Response Network cards, red cars, while left arm holds a mic.

I've got my pin-laden hat on, my Solo El Pueblo Salva Al Pueblo bandana. I'm wearing a blue Fuck ICE shirt and a neon yellow vest. As always, my mouth is open.

Patty Hoyt@patois42· Jun 7

Really stoked that Leon Kunstenaar came to our #De-ICECitizensBank action in Mill Valley today. Just truly brilliant photos, and this one might be my favorite. kunstena.smugmug.com/Politics-1/D...

In front of the Mill Valley (CA) branch of that ICE-camp-financing Citizens Bank. Hand made sign says "People over Profit." There is a placard that says De-ICE Citizens Bank Stop Funding ICE Prisons." There are a couple of other placards on top of a cardboard black-painted coffin.

Patty Hoyt@patois42· Jun 6

And here's another excellent shot. This man (shoot, I think he said his name is Adam) is from Massachusetts and joined us. I believe he said is wife is one of the leaders of the #De-ICECitizensBank movement in that area. Shoutout to him and to @probonophoto.bsky.social's Mort Stein.

A line of protestors along the sidewalk with a man holding a placard reading "De-ICE Citizens Bank Stop Funding ICE Prisons!"

Patty Hoyt@patois42· Jun 6

For our first #De-ICECitizensBank action, about 80 folks showed up and spoke up. Here's the leader of Indivisible West Marin with one of the placards I had made. See all of Mort Stein's photos here: www.probonophoto.org/2026/6Jun26M...

A woman (Mary) holds a De-ICE Citizens Bank that also says "Communities Not Cages." She has her placard raised high and is standing on the street as a blue car passes by

Youngest (now 24) gave me this bag last month because he remembers (quite fondly) me reading The Monster at the End of This Book to him whilst speaking as Grover.

An image of Grover from Sesame Street with his arms thrown up in the air and the very loud admonishment "You turned another page!"

Three old ladies in the pouring rain on an overpass in Novato, promoting #MayDay and expressing our disdain for ICE. #ICEisGestapo #Boycott

Woman with a sign which reads "ICE Out of our Neighborhoods." She is suited up for the torrential downpours during our banner drop

Me, asking the Novato City Council to start distributing whistle packets. #SoloElPuebloSalvaAlPueblo #Whistlemania

Or, hear me out, you might be living in the present.

My friend and fellow Raddie, what bravery, singing to all those people. Made me cry. #NoKings-NoICE-NoWar #NoKings

Patty Hoyt@patois42· Mar 28

My son and future DIL, both 23 years old, took these signs to the action in Culver City. Future DIL made them. The kids are all right, at least in my family. #NoKings #NoKings-NoICE-NoWar

Two hand-made signs, artistically created by my future DIL.
First: Is he DEAD yet? (with a crown over "he")
Second: Is he STILL NOT DEAD? (with a crown over "he")

Patty Hoyt@patois42· Mar 23

On Saturday, we'll be out in 20 sites in our county with these placards. #NoKings-NoICE-NoWar

Patty Hoyt@patois42· Mar 20

Is it normal to weep at the sight of a photo from 20 years ago? Me and my BFF stand encircling Eldest, Le Daughter, BFF's oldest, Youngest, and BFF's youngest.

Two women stand in front of five children.

Patty Hoyt@patois42· Mar 19

It was freakin' hot, but we were out there for three hours promoting #NoKings-NoICE-NoWar

Banners on an overpass:
Stop Trump
March 28th No Kings Protest
No Kings.org

And an American flag because, yeah, we're patriots.

EIGHT DOLLARS A GALLON. Downtown Los Angeles. Today. Trump promised to lower gas prices on Day 1. Instead he started a war with Iran and gas in LA just topped $8. This is sticker shock. This is his fault. #TrumpsGasProblem

Patty Hoyt@patois42· Mar 8

Said bag.

Bag with image of Grover saying "You turned another page!"

Patty Hoyt@patois42· Mar 8

Youngest, who is nearly 24, bought a bag with imagery from "The Monster at the End of This Book" at a bookstore and I can't tell you how much time I've spent trying to replicate the Grover voice I used in reading this story to him long ago. "Ohhhhh, you turned another page!"

Image of the book "The Monster at the End of this Book" with Grover from Sesame Street holding flowers and saying via bubble "Are you a monster?"

Someone (me) received the annual Side With Love Award today. (And, yes, my speech did open with me noting that I, in fact, do everything with a side of rage.)

For, you know, when she deletes.

My quote skeet "I attended elementary school on Hickam AFB. Nearly all military brats went to school on military bases."
Original is from Lisa MD (@gardeninglisa.bskysocial) "What country puts a primary school within an IRGC base" with a photo that I assume is of the base

Patty Hoyt@patois42· Feb 20

Screenshot of my skeet 13 days ago. "Amazingly grateful to Claire in Montana who made and gifted me 1000 3D-printed whistles. "Gifted" as in "FREE" and including shipping. Want to help fund this effort? Check it out: linktr.ee/3Dwhistles

There is an image of a note that has a heart drawing and "Claire in MT"

Patty Hoyt@patois42· Feb 15

I adore this poster. Someone just gifted me two dozen, to offer up to businesses we're asking to distribute whistle packets. #ICEisGestapo #SoloElPuebloSalvaAlPueblo

Large lettering in red: WE PROTECT US
Image of whistle upon a less prominent butterfly
Large lettering in red: ICE OUT FOR GOOD
And then a row of icons:
EYE arrow ICE CUBE arrow WHISTLE SIREN SIREN SIREN/ICE CUBE arrow HANDCUFFS arrow WHISTLE SIREN (wavy lines indicating long burst)

MAGA Republicans are terrified of women voting. So they’re pushing the SAVE America Act to choke our registration, demand papers many don’t have, and purge us from the rolls. They fear our power, our rage, our turnout. We will not be silenced. Call 202-224-3121. #HandsOffHerVote
