Latinos for Spanberger just launched and I'm here for it. As DLOV VP, seeing her promise to kill Youngkin's immigration order Day 1 tells me everything. Local cops should do "community policing, not immigration raids that undermine trust." Ready to organize?: abigailspanberger.com/latinos-for-...

the commonwealth of virginia in the 21st century is a diverse, cosmopolitan place where some of the best of the old and the new mix to form something exciting, and these people hate it.

gosh it's almost like every single person arguing that these were *obviously* going to be used for oppression was right and every cop and public figure who testified the opposite way was either openly lying or so gormlessly naive that they shouldn't be trusted to breathe without supervision

Screenshot of a list of the 27 specific grievances against King George III in the Declaration of Independence. Donald Trump's regime has committed at least 16 of them in whole or in part, highlighted in yellow and listed below: "1. He has refused his Assent to Laws, the most wholesome and necessary for the public good. 2. He has refused to pass other Laws for the accommodation of large districts of people, unless those people would relinquish the right of Representation in the Legislature, a right inestimable to them and formidable to tyrants only. 3. He has endeavoured to prevent the population of these States; for that purpose obstructing the Laws for Naturalization of Foreigners; refusing to pass others to encourage their migrations hither [Partial] 4. He has obstructed the Administration of Justice, by refusing his Assent to Laws for establishing Judiciary powers. 5. He has erected a multitude of New Offices, and sent hither swarms of Officers to harrass our people, and eat out their substance. 6. He has kept among us, in times of peace, Standing Armies without the Consent of our legislatures. 7. He has affected to render the Military independent of and superior to the Civil power. 8. He has combined with others to subject us to a jurisdiction foreign to our constitution, and unacknowledged by our laws; giving his Assent to their Acts of pretended Legislation: 9. For cutting off our Trade with all parts of the world: 10. For imposing Taxes on us without our Consent: 11. For depriving us in many cases, of the benefits of Trial by Jury: 12. For transporting us beyond Seas to be tried for pretended offences: 13. [Partial], abolishing our most valuable Laws, and altering fundamentally the Forms of our Governments: 14. He has abdicated Government here, by declaring us out of his Protection and waging War against us. 15. [Partial], and destroyed the lives of our people. 16. He has excited domestic insurrections amongst us [Partial]"

The Declaration of Independence specifies 27 grievances with King George III and Britain.

Donald Trump has committed at least 16 of those same offenses.

Wisconsin’s Supreme Court just ruled to protect reproductive freedom.

Every single election matters.

I'm only just now learning about this but it seems to me that this has not only been blown out of proportion but his position appears to have been inverted. Despicable.

Spot on. This is the clearest explanation I’ve seen. It ‘s relatable, and humanizes the issue in a way everyone can understand.

Keeping tabs...

Lisa is great and will be a lot better than Wittman who needs to go!

I worked with a bunch of cool people on this issue as an employee of @afscme.bsky.social way back in 2011. Successfully restoring child care for 17,000 kids remains one of the highlights of my career. Shame on those who would kick little kids out of preschool and put working parents into crisis.

Stop by and browse, talk water politics, enjoy Answer beer, trade Pokemon or just do Freeplay arcade! I'll bring my 3ds for street pass silliness also.

I'll have some Genesis and Wii games, some random DVDs and VHS, PlayStation VR, and a (2D) video projector. I'll have a ton of Nintendo Switch accessories like Joy Con chargers, hall-effect Switch controller/docks, and off brand pro-style controllers. Plus a model 1 Sega Genesis, Wii Zapp Guns

Let your geek flag fly. I'll be at The Answer today selling retro and contemporary video game systems like various generations of Gameboy, Wii and PlayStation including Wii U and backward compatible PS3 along with lots of related av material like capture cards, HDMI splitters, controllers and more

How is it that there is something closer to justice in Morrisey's case than there is in Trump's?

Dems in Congress seem to have missed a key lesson in leadership: Be the thermostat, not the thermometer!

Don’t just read the room, tell the room what to feel & what to do about it.

THE INCREDIBLE HULK #181: an analogy for the current moment. Canada is represented by Wolverine, feisty, resilient and punching above his weight. The US is represented not by the noble Captain America, but the Hulk, a dumb and impulsive brute who somehow forgot that Canada is a sovereign country.

¡Estoy emocionado por Superman con su perrito Krypto también y compartirlo con mis hijos! Gracias por recordarme

DHS names schools, hospitals and churches as sites for enforcement. My mind immediately went to the ways that the state terrorized Black people throughout history but specific examples from the civil rights era like Bloody Tuesday. This isn't a dog whistle, they are saying it plainly and out loud.

Worf says beheadings are on Wednesdays

Good morning to everyone except the people trying to claim that Musk's Nazi salute wasn't a Nazi salute

🤮

And if not, that the powers that be have the chutzpah to tax billionaires like Glen Younkin enough to pay for stuff like working running water that he and the rest of us need.

I hope, but I genuinely doubt, that the water infrastructure crisis in the City of Richmond that has forced the General Assembly to postpone the Commonwealth's business and the Governor to flee to his tax free horse farm will lead both to adequately fund fixing it.

Shout-out to the guy at a Henrico Wendy's who when I asked if I could fill up my jugs with tap water from the soda fountain said "It ain't mine!"

HEY WORLD BEYOND RVA! Are y’all just learning about us not having water? Cool! Wanna know how to help? (Bringing attention to it is great AND there are some folks on the ground doing good work!)

Tryin'

Hey y'all we've got work to do to continue to build our Democratic party and continue to build political representation in the Latino community. Glad to be a part of the Unity and Growth slate. ¡Adelante!

I don't know why 8 people just followed me but, hello!

Stuff I think is not cool: neo-nazi cabinet appointments, "right to work" for less laws, blaming marginalized people for the failures of a government or political party, acting like child rearing isn't also work, people who profit from my desire for my children to be free from sickness or injury
