Mamdani: "I just want to speak directly to the president. I will not be a mayor like Mayor Adams who will call you to stay out of jail. I won't be a disgraced governor like Andrew Cuomo who will call you to ask how to win this election. I can do those things on my own."

Jacob Soboroff is doing a great job investigating and debunking the claims that ICE is making about their arrests targeted worst of the worst

Congress can help reign in ICE- IF we get a Democratic majority. That will be more likely if California passes Proposition 50. #YesOnProp50

Republicans think Antifa is a group or club but it's really a set if ideals and love for democracy.

Don’t let the ghouls wear you down. Resist in whatever way works for you.

They fear music!!

Miranda 🖤🤍💜 @doomscroling.bsky.social · 1d

She wasn't "arrested", she was assaulted, kidnapped, & is being unlawfully imprisoned for playing music during a peaceful protest.

The chump administration is openly trampling the rights of Americans to instill fear & silence dissent.

They’re freaking out!!!

Trump’s cabinet secretaries falsely claim Dems are keeping the government closed because of the “No Kings” mass protests, and Mike Johnson calls it the “hate America rally.”

The truth is: we love America, but we hate tyrants. That’s why we’re doing this.

See you Saturday.

And that's why they are so scared. The more terrified a group gets, the more desperate they become. Be peaceful ✌️ and protect yourself. Encrypt your phones.

The fear these Republicans are displaying reminds me of when the Emancipation Proclamation was passed. And the white slave owners in the South were scared shitless that their slaves would turn on them. Republicans hate freedom for others. They love it for themselves ONLY!
