There are some people who like to erase history. We are going to record history. Whether it be in Philadelphia, Chicago, or Portland, we are going to #BringTheLight.

Letitia James is now being targeted by corrupt prosecutor Halligan or “What the Hell again” as I like to say. Disgraceful!

Philadelphia on track to record the lowest number of homicides in 20 years

Overall crime in Philadelphia has been steadily declining. In 2021, the city hit a record number of homicide victims: 562. Now, it is on track to hit the lowest in 20 years.

The Posse Comitatus Act forbids using the military as law enforcement against civilians. Deploying the military to occupy American cities violates the law. Period.

Philly’s District Attorney @dalarrykrasner.bsky.social is more willing to say it out loud and put it on campaign merch!

A campaign button from the Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner reelection campaign with the slogan “F*** Around and Find Out” around the outside and a picture of Krasner in the center.

Hey all, I voted absentee at City Hall today. Super easy. Walked in, got seen in two minutes. Did my paper ballot, submitted it in the special envelopes. Done.

Vote for @dalarrykrasner.bsky.social and vote YES to retain all judges. #Philly #GoBirds #FuckICE #FreePalestine

Trump’s indictment is a sham and everyone knows it. The courts will show the truth but the bigger fight is stopping Trump from turning our justice system into his personal weapon. Stand up. Keep the faith. Vote.

The homicide rate in Republican states has been 125% of that in Democratic states for decades. The truth is Republicans are not effective on crime.

Murder is murder. We do not tolerate murder or gun violence in this country.

When you protect your city and stand up to a bully, they back down. That’s why Philly can’t elect a Trump-lite like my opponent for D.A. this November.

People do not join the National Guard to be civilian peacekeepers. We saw how this played out at Kent State in 1970 when unarmed students were killed and now it’s happening again.

Krasner: So, if what you have is a group of ICE agents, or even the military, coming into Philadelphia and committing crimes—assaults that are illegal, kidnapping, unlawful restraint, obstruction of the administration of justice—they can be prosecuted.

If Donald Trump comes for Philly, I ain’t backing down. None of us should. If that means a short trip to jail, so be it.

Last time I checked the Bible, it said “Take everything you have and give it to the poor.” It didn’t say “Steal everything you can from the poor and lock them up.

PHILLY DA @dalarrykrasner.bsky.social : “Let's not get lost in his silly distraction from the fact that he doesn't want to give up information on his own involvement in a pedophile ring. Did we all forget about that? Trump is the public safety emergency.”

The 10th Amendment says he cannot take over the Philadelphia Police Department. There’s no legal basis and there’s no emergency. We have the lowest rate of homicides in 50 years. The only emergency is Donald Trump.

Any real Democrat would NEVER run for office as a Republican. Not my opponent though. He lied to Philadelphians, who will never elect someone they don’t trust.
