Remember the immigration raid on the apartment complex in Chicago almost two months ago? The one with the Black Hawk helicopter and federal agents rappelling on ropes? @ProPublica decided to take a deeper look. We found little evidence to support the government’s claims. 🧵

As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history.

Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX

Trump said he would release the Epstein files—until he realized he was in them.

We are watching a cover-up in real time. There needs to be accountability. The victims deserve justice.
🚨BREAKING: Oversight Dems have received new emails from Jeffrey Epstein’s estate that raise serious questions about Donald Trump and his knowledge of Epstein’s horrific crimes.

Read them for yourself. It’s time to end this cover-up and RELEASE THE FILES.

I'm looking to see not only which Senate Dem candidates oppose this surrender (all of them will) but also where they go beyond this with respect to senate leadership.

I want to see concrete promises for a new fighting Dem Party, because the current one is broken.
This moment demands fighters, not folders.

Remember when Trump posted a video of himself dumping shit on Americans?

Maybe he should try to help Americans instead of attacking us.

They had no problem sending $40 billion to Argentina or spending $200 million on private jets for Secretary Noem—but when it comes to hungry children and working families, all we get are excuses.

Now the Administration is claiming it could take weeks or even months to make the partial SNAP benefits payments due to so-called "system changes."

That’s unacceptable.

Politically motivated prosecutions violate our Constitution. Looking at the indictment, it is hard to see anything but the weaponizing of the DOJ against a Democratic candidate and peaceful protestors. @katmabu.bsky.social

Republicans understand that the best way to kill social programs is to paint their beneficiaries as Black, as support for these programs declines — even amongst white people who need them — when they think large numbers of Black people will benefit.

Those in power should be solving problems not creating them. The judge in ordering Trump to pay SNAP said the admin is creating "terror" 4 families. @democracyforward.org is right-hunger shouldn't be used as a tactic of political pressure. It's wrong & it’s illegal
