Medicare for all, paid leave, universal childcare.

Busting up big corporations and tackling Wall Street’s greed.

Getting big money out of politics.

Supporting unions and fighting for higher wages.

If Dems want to win back working people, this is the agenda they must support.

The fight for civil rights and workers’ rights are deeply connected. That’s why America’s unions organize every day for dignity, respect and justice for working people. #BlackHistoryMonth

Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche needs to resign.

He got the law wrong about patronizing sex parties with alleged child trafficking. He failed to redact names of victims & pictures of children. AND he moved Ghislaine Maxwell to a minimum-security prison & got her a puppy.

Remember her name: Aliya Rahman

Her testimony is everything and it deserves to be heard, by everyone. Decide for yourself.

It’s powerful. It’s gut-wrenching. And no one should have to survive what she did.

ICE MUST GO‼️

Kids tear-gassed at a bike ride protest in Oregon.

And before you predictably say “why do you bring a kid to a protest?” — why do you keep defending a brutal police state? What country do you want to live in?

Y’all have lost the thread. 🇺🇸

Voting NO on the DHS funding bill is the bare minimum.

Backing Kristi Noem’s impeachment is the bare minimum.

Holding law-breaking ICE agents legally accountable is the bare minimum.

ICE is beyond reform. Abolish it.
