Statement from DSA's National Political Committee. 4 of 4. We will fight their bills, their deportations, and their wars. We will fight fascism in the streets, on the picket line, and at the ballot box. DSA, and the tens of millions of workers across this country who are disgusted with the status quo, are the opposition. 

We will stand up and fight: join us. dsausa.org/join

If you are ever in the #olympia area, checking out #tumwaterfalls is a must. Very nice short scenic loop trail with multiple small water falls and many places to sit to enjoy the scenery #washington #pnw #waterfall #hike

The first Democratic governor who sends their state troopers into an ICE field office to free someone ICE has kidnapped is going to be president in four years.

Thank you so much! The location is quite scenic from a few view points!

We have NEVER been โ€œfreeโ€ in the USA bc we arenโ€™t afforded BASIC needs. ONLY CORPORATIONS & the 1% ARE TAKEN CARE OF.

Personally, I was bankrupted by UNPAID maternity leave at a nonprofit job HELPING people.

THIS is our country. The MASSES are oppressed & we just think we have to โ€œwork harderโ€.

Plenty of politicians on both sides of the aisle feel threatened by rising class consciousness.

Not sure who needs to hear this, but any govt official who violates someone's constitutional rights -- and is acting outside the scope of their lawful authority -- can be PERSONALLY liable in a civil suit.

ICE officers. Cabinet members. White House staffers. Even the president.

Dear senators who think you canโ€™t do anything,

Today, Senator Van Hollen - through diplomatic pressure - got a meeting with Abrego Garcia in El Salvador. So that thing youโ€™re thinking about doing? DO IT.

Van Hollen speaks to press after being denied entry to El Salvador prison holding Abrego Garcia YouTube video by Senator Chris Van Hollen

Kilmar Abrego Garcia was illegally abducted and is being held in a notorious prison in El Salvador โ€” barred from contacting his family or lawyers.

Iโ€™m speaking to the press now after we were denied access to the prison to check on his condition. Tune in:

At a GOP town hall last night, heckling from constituents was apparently too much to handleโ€”so they used police force and even stun guns on their own constituents. What are they so afraid of? Someone disagreeing with their views?

The Kilmer Abrego Garcia case is infuriating. If justice isnโ€™t served, this must mark the beginning of the end for this administration. Whatโ€™s happening is not just wrong- itโ€™s criminal, and we canโ€™t stay silent. Accountability is not optional! ๐Ÿ˜ก
