The feds are escalating in Los Angeles. We've seen record high kidnappings and our communities are under attack. The media focus on LA has died down so electeds don't feel the need to even feign opposition.

People are out here fighting. We need all of us. Join the struggle. Defend your neighbors.

AOC: "It is unconscionable that what we are debating right now is legislation that will give 8 senators over $1 million a piece & we're robbing people of their food assistance & healthcare to pay for it. How can we vote to enrich ourselves by stealing from the American people?"

POTUS gave a convicted child sex abuser favorable treatment, and dangled the prospect of a pardon, so she would tell lies about if he was implicated in her crimes. That's not speculative or circumstantial, it's a cold hard proven fact, in and of itself more than enough to demand removal from office.

Maybe this explains why ICE taped bags over windows of journalist @peoplesfabric.com’s cell so he couldn’t see out when they baselessly arrested him in September.

AOC: You're damn right that it's a Democratic priority to keep people from getting poisoned, from dangerous chemicalsΒ 

You're damn right that it's a Democratic priority to bring down the cost of housing


If they want to say that that's a Democratic priority, they're right,

I understand the sentiment. But I would make sure that we preserved some things as a teaching tools, like Auschwitz was.

I don’t know who needs to hear this but the CDC is being eviscerated right now. America is not going to have any kind of outbreak response capacity after tonight. Americans’ health data is no longer secure. Say goodbye to federal public health in any capacity. It’s a disaster. We won’t recover.

There is a brilliance to this that can't be underestimated.

If the protesters showed up in body armor, helmets and masks, it would be easier for Trump and his accomplices to claim they are terrorists.

If they start beating up people dancing in costumes, they will just look like violent thugs.

Apple Banned an App That Simply Archived Videos of ICE Abuses Eyes Up's purpose is to "preserve evidence until it can be used in court." But it has been swept up in Apple's crackdown on ICE-spotting apps.

Apple removed an app to preserve TikToks, IG reels, news reports, and videos documenting abuses by ICE.

Eyes Up, was an aggregation service pooling information to preserve evidence for future prosecutions.

Why is this a bad thing?

Support our campaign to oppose MAGA extremists

Trump's Big Ugly Bill will force numerous hospitals to close nationwide, eliminate school meals for 18M kids, & threaten millions of jobs, all to transfer our tax dollars to billionaires. Republicans must pay at the ballot box for this betrayal.

The appropriate response to horrible crimes is CRIMINAL PROSECUTION.

Stop acting like there can’t be actual consequences for anyone in this administration.
