Sharing from @jvp.bsky.social: Americans are left begging for housing, healthcare, and food while the government always has money for war, ICE, weapons, and extracting oil from other countries. #democrats #republicans #democracynow

A US citizen has apparently been shot by ICE agents in Minneapolis. I’m gathering information, but the situation on the ground is volatile.

ICE should leave now for everyone’s safety.

ICE has posted a video of Santa Claus arresting immigrants. Your government is hijacking a symbol of charity to spread fear and hate. it’s up to all of us to defeat these twisted fascists.

Cuellar accepted a pardon from Trump, who clearly wanted the congressman personally indebted to him. That's not what a real opposition party does. Democrats on the Appropriations committee should vote against reinstating Cuellar.

“Just vote blue in 2026” won’t save us from American fascism. Both parties have been drifting to the right for years. Democrats and Republicans have aligned themselves with corporatocracy and oligarchy, respectively.

What a night! ✨

First, we stopped by the @dclatinocaucus.bsky.social mixer at La Cosecha to celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month.

Then, we had a house party in Mount Pleasant to meet neighbors and hear what they hope to see from a councilmember. Thank you Irene, Caleb, and Rami for hosting!
