We are just one day in to the MAGA Shutdown. Already we can tell that Republicans’ failure to fund the government is going to have a devastating impact on millions of working class American families, but the stakes are too high to back down now. Our healthcare is worth fighting for.

The old legal aphorism is "A grand jury would indict a ham sandwich" ... but apparently a DC grand jury won't indict somebody for throwing a ham sandwich during a federal occupation.

#FreeDC

People are being forced out of DC. The cost of living is too high, and Trump is waging an all-out assault on the District.

It should be easier and more affordable to build a life here.

That's why I’m running for DC Council in Ward 1.

Trump releases troves of invasive surveillance on the private life of a civil rights icon … but continues to protect the secrets of his pal, Jeffrey Epstein, a disgraced Wall Street scumbag

Healthcare Cuts Will Kill YouTube video by Re:Action

We're outside the US Capitol to say it loud and clear: Healthcare is a public good, not a luxury for the rich.

And the prescription for change: “The power of the people is always greater than the people in power… but only if we use it.”

Rep @summerlee.bsky.social on fire yesterday’s #HandsOffHud rally at the Capitol “we know that housing is the foundation for everything else in our society”

Sending a message tonight to Trump's Sec. of Commerce Scott Bessent, who:

💰 Called concerns about oligarchy "class envy" during his confirmation hearing
🙅‍ Opposes raising the min wage, claiming it "distorts markets"
🔒 Protects power and pushes for fewer corporate regulations.

Would love to but we are a grassroots all volunteer project that’s funded almost entirely by the small donations that groups make when they borrow equipment or space. If you think it’s valuable please invest in this project so we can keep it going. www.movementinfrastructureproject.org/donate

Everybody is talking about Trump should fire Elon. Why don’t we demand that Elon fire Trump.
