Talking with them. (You know this. You do a whole lot of it! It’s very much appreciated.) Am just sharing that thought with others on the feed. Really, we all have to go out of our ways to talk with people.

Goes back, again, to founding principles of the country and part of the Revolution in which we were formed.

So, fundamental.

The amount is meaningless — less than one day of salary. But the principle is important: once the armed services are paid by the oligarchs, they become a private militia, and we no longer have a country.

A lot of people are doing things about it. We had marches across the country last weekend with more than seven million of us.

And not a single one of us is marching once and imagining we’re done.

If you travel around your city using public transit, why not print out copies of Megan's "How to Report ICE" in your city and hand those out? It's a simple way to inform people. drive.google.com/drive/folder... - I distributed some to folks on the bus today and they were all grateful to receive them

Hands Off NYC American cities are under attack by the Trump administration. The illegal deployment of the National Guard in Los Angeles, Washington D.C, Chicago, Memphis, and Portland is an assault on our rights and values. This is not about crime. The crime rates in each of the targeted cities have been going down, not up. What they do share is strong, multi-racial, union power - and city leadership that refuses to bow down. Tax dollars should strengthen our cities, not tear families apart. Public funds should strengthen schools, hospitals, and safe neighborhoods — not build detention centers and occupy our cities. Together, we can win. We pledge to organize together, build local power, and stand in solidarity with every city facing military occupation. Our cities and our people are our greatest strength.

Yeah, it’s always very important to Jeffries that you understand that he’s not doing something because you, his constituent, wants him to, or because it’d be, frankly, a great thing to accomplish, but because he has concluded that incremental, ideally imperceptible, action might be needed, soon.

“We’re just going to kill people,” he says, himself.

He’s a war criminal. This should end with him incarcerated.

Support elected officials who agree with that and will work, with more speed and intensity than has been seen before, to make it happen.
