🚨Arresting US citizens who have not broken any laws is now acceptable practice in the United States of America. The only thing worse than being ICE is pretending that you don’t see what is happening to our neighbors. She isn’t a hero, she’s an American. 🇺🇸

Everybody!
Jacob Frey: "If we are now at the point where the federal govt is deploying agents on legal American citizens with a goal of uprooting people who have formed lives here, have families here, started businesses here, definitively made Minneapolis a better place, everybody should be speaking out."

I am grateful that Colbert put Jesse on national television. This song about joining ICE sums up those goons perfectly. www.youtube.com/watch?v=61I4...

Get to know the amazing, brave Mary Bruce, ABC journalist, directly confronting both a sexual abuser and murderer to their faces. #PiggyPOTUS 47 is vile, evil, disgusting. You can judge him by the company he keeps. 🐷💩🤬🤮

We need more journalists like Mary. We need fewer pigs masquerading as humans.

This speaks volumes!
I’ve been trying to articulate this forever and this quote says it perfectly. Real hope isn’t passive, it’s active. But it’s also worth remembering that action doesn’t always mean sweeping change or grand gestures. Small choices count too. What a fabulous woman Dr. Goodall was. RIP.

Ugh
SCOTUS has placed another pause on a lower court order that directed the Trump administration to pay SNAP in full. I’m going to say it again, I’ve never seen a federal government work so hard to starve people.

This is a vision of chutzpah...
Really wish I had gotten a better shot of this but holding a phone that says “who else was just ‘following orders’?” up to a riot cop is hard as hell

That would help. What magical thinking are they stuck on?
Those of us who’ve had to negotiate with/navigate narcissists recognize this behavior. Negotiating against yourself - compromising huge parts of yourself for the hope of a sliver in return.

Dems should engage a team of therapists and psychologists to help them appreciate what they’re up against.
Reporter: What do you say to your colleagues who say this isn't a fight, this is a capitulation?

Shaheen: We have a guaranteed vote by a guaranteed date…

Reporter: There is no guarantee that this will become law.

Shaheen: There was never a guarantee that it would be become law.

Thank you, Senator Smith!
I will not support this bill that completely fails to help Americans afford their health care.

Trump and R’s have more than doubled Americans’ health care premiums, and for 40 days they have refused to lift a finger to do a thing about it. In fact, they’ve made it worse by taking food from kids.

Thank you, Senator Klobuchar!
Lowering costs is the top priority for the American people. I voted against this budget bill because it does not prevent health insurance premiums from doubling for so many Americans. The President and Congressional Republicans should have come to the table to work with us to lower these costs.

This is the way
“The regime wants all of us afraid. It is counting on fear immobilizing us and perhaps even turning us against each other. Instead, what we are currently seeing in Chicago is that solidarity can overcome fear and can give people the courage and tenacity to fight for each other.” --Mariame Kaba
In Chicago, We Run Toward Danger Together
"Faced with unrelenting state violence, Chicagoans have refused to be cowed," says Mariame Kaba.

Remember this.
A political party tries to court your vote. A fascist regime tries to keep you from voting.
