On the 8th of September, the Miami-Dade County school board held a revote on the question of whether to designated October as LGBTQ month. This has been approved before, but now three school board members opposed by Fl Governor DeSantis had been replaced. Both inside and out the far-right hectored them to drop Pride Month. Meanwhile, LGBTQ activists testified inside for keeping Pride Month, and counterprotested Proud Boys and other fascists outside.

On the 5th of September, protesters again returned to the Supreme Court in opposition to the Dobbs antiabortion decision-and to the efforts by the Koch-funded "Judicial Crisis Network" attempts to criminalize pro-choice protests at the homes of so-called "Justices." The big siege fence is gone but the protesters are NOT.

On the 31st of August, a Montgomery County cop harassed a Black woman-and ONLY at a Black woman-for momentarily standing still in front of Kavanaugh's house during the protest there. He threatened a no-warning arrest if she again stood still. Another (white or white-passing) protester repeated this "offense" and got no reaction from the same cop or any of the others
