Kristi Noem keeps defending ICE — even as agents brutalize people and use deadly force.
That’s not leadership. It’s enabling abuse.

Federal immigration agents keep using deadly force while Congress keeps funding them without accountability. The Senate must draw a line.

ICE has now carried out two summary executions of innocent people in the streets of an American city.
If you work for ICE, there's no denying that's the mission you're supporting now. You don't get to claim in one year or ten or twenty that you didn't know what ICE was doing. You're complicit.

Attorney General Pam Bondi broke the law when she failed to produce ALL the Epstein files by Dec. 19, 2025. What is she hiding? Congress must act and hold her in "inherent contempt"! share.weareultraviolet.org/s/lnCKxMcN
Clearly, Pam Bondi works for Donald Trump and not the American people.

“MAGA Lefty” Is Not A Thing
Trump did not “steal the Democrats’ economic platform.” He’s not “anti-war.” He’s an plutocratic imperialist waging war on social welfare, consumer protection, and civil liberties. Look at what he doe...

@democrats.senate.gov If you pass the CR, there won't be a Congress. You'll have abdicated your 1 job to the branch that was never meant to have it.
There's a poem about the events of WW2 you should read. It goes something like "I let S, T, U, V, W, X, Y, and Z, be killed, and then it was my turn."

*A number of Senate Democrats have stated no position on the bill, leaving their options open. In general, senators have been hedging their bets until forced to make a decision. That time has come*

What I’ve been saying (screaming). Now there’s data.
The DOGE firings have nothing to do with “efficiency” or “cutting waste.” They’re a direct push to weaken federal agencies perceived as liberal. This was evident from the start, and now the data confirms it: targeted agencies overwhelmingly those seen as more left-leaning. 🧵⬇️

Tens of thousands rallied across Argentina on Feb 1 against president Milei's queerphobic, misogynistic, and anti-worker policies.
Workers, students, and retirees who've been attacked with austerity joined with LGBTQ+ & feminist activists. This is how to fight the Far Right✊

Hear me out —
If parents call colleges freaked about their FAFSA data being leaked, schools may have to issue statements — which would reach a whole lot more families about how warped this is.
Organizing isn’t always calling electeds. Sometimes it’s just calling people with a bigger megaphone.
