ACCOUNTABILITY, NOT WEAPONIZATION: Marsha Blackburn is reprising her favorite role as victim no. 1 because she her name appeared in an FBI subpoena.

For the record, Blackburn was communicating with Donald Trump on Jan. 6 as he was attempting to steal the 2020 election. www.pbs.org/newshour/pol...

End due process for any group, no one has due process. How will you prove you are a citizen when you are abducted without any due process?

Massachusetts Stipend Reform 2026

This MA legislative reform ballot question would end the current system of loyalty pay. Then our legislators would work for us rather than for the legislative leadership. Our legislature would be more transparent, responsive, and effective. For more info, to help get signatures, or donate go here.

Apple removes apps that allow anonymous reporting of ICE agent sightings Apple has removed ICEBlock and similar apps that let users report and track U.S. immigration agents. The decision follows apparent pressure from authorities.

#WTF Apple???
Bring back #ICEBlock

We must pass a billionaire minimum tax that establishes a baseline tax rate that the super-rich cannot go under.

It's time to tax the rich.

We cannot accept or normalize what has now become routine violence at 26 Federal Plaza. It has no place in our city.

It is super frustrating to me when people ask "where are the young people?" The young people are standing up for their rights - even at the cost of their future. "Where are the old people?" Why aren't they protesting this?

800 detainees are missing after being held in Alligator Alcatraz in July, showing no record of their location in ICE’s database.

Other detainees have been mistakenly deported or sent to detention centers thousands of miles away.

The cruelty is the point.

They just tear-gassed us. They tried to run us over in a van holding a peaceful protester. They shot us with pepper balls. They dragged another protester into the facility.

Overcrowded cells. Unsanitary conditions. Limited access to food and water.

These are the conditions that ICE has created at 26 Federal Plaza, which eleven elected officials sought to expose. Instead, they were arrested.

They must be released right now β€” and inspectors let in.

BOYCOTT ALERT!

Disney/ABC just caved & pulled Jimmy Kimmel for political reasons.
Nexstar β€” which owns The CW + 200+ local ABC, NBC, CBS & FOX stations β€” is part of the same machine.

It’s happening. The takedown of Jimmy Kimmel is likely the start of a campaign to use the murder of Charlie Kirk as a pretext to use the power of the White House to wipe out Trump’s critics and his political opponents.

But we aren’t powerless. We can mobilize and organize. Now.

Illinois State Senator Karina Villa sprang into action to protect her community from ICE raids, alerting neighbors to their rights and chasing off masked agents. This is how you stand up to authoritarianism. We should all be inspired by Sen. Villa's courage.
