It was a great day and a strong showing by the American people! I wasn't able to get very close because of how big the crowd was and how quickly they filed in but we had some great speakers there.

So many unfortunate "victims of three-cueing" in the replies who clearly didn't fucking read that there was already a shitload of press here

wonder why they picked Will, instead of a news crew
After the Pretti shooting, one of those guys straight-up suckerpunched me for “filming faces”… as I filmed him and fully-masked friends lighting fires directly in front of the dozens of gathered press crews. Nonsensical; just dudes wanting someone to give them a reason. Not that different from ICE.

ICE was stealing equipment from the Islip Long Island fire department and a Islip Forward member documented it. ICE tried to arrest the community member but the firemen said “I don’t think so” www.islipforward.org

i love a free country, where the president's secret police can shoot out the windows of random citizens with impunity
And ICE shot out the windows of apartments nearby. They used this munition to do it. They also shot people with this.

The people want to save our Republic. In November we will start to put a real end to this madness, and then we can hold Trump & MAGA accountable for it. My opponent Andrew Garbarino chairs the House committee overseeing DHS. I want to abolish DHS. The difference couldn't be more clear.
JUST IN: Democrats flip a red seat in the Texas Senate.

Taylor Rehmet wins against Leigh Wambsganss, a conservative activist who helped lead right-wing efforts to take over TX school boards.

With all early vote, and 95% of precincts, in, Dem up 57/43.

Trump won this seat by 17% in Tarrant County.

guess who won
As you see the reports out of Texas SD-9, keep in mind: This was the cash discrepancy.

Money speaks -- but it's not as loud as it used to be.

I was there. They were indiscriminately firing multiple canisters into a huge peaceful crowd. Fucking cowards

Just got gassed pretty good at the labor union anti-ICE protest in Portland. Massive march, 5-10k strong. Vibes were very much liberal rather than radical. Lots of kids and older folks.

They gassed the whole crowd as soon as it marched on ICE, in broad daylight.

This is, quite unironically, the future we want.
Sixteen years in MN and I’ve never set foot in this miraculous place: a midwestern dive bar where everyone is Hmong, with an attached pool hall, EDM stage, and where you can order pho until midnight. The idea people would want to kick immigrants out of this region is insane.

Americans are waking up to the dire threat to our Republic and freedoms.
Pew has Trump's approval at 37%. And:

"Only about a quarter of Americans today (27%) say they support all or most of Trump’s policies and plans, down from 35% when he returned to office last year. That change has come entirely among Republicans."
