Great turnout at today's #NJ07 Congressional candidate forum, hosted by OneNJ7 and AFTNJ.
Voter interest in this year's race is clearly high - and the Democratic candidates are clearly ready to take on Trumpist Rep Tom Kean!

In December, @paulthedogman.bsky.social and I closed our account at Citizens Bank to tell them we won’t do business with a “community” bank that finances ICE prisons.
Today, joined with protesters all over the East Coast to send them the same message. #DeICECitizens
There are currently 2,200 No Kings Day events planned in all 50 states, DC, and a dozen countries.
Find your local event (or start a new one) and join us on March 28 for the largest protest in American history: www.nokings.org?SQF_SOURCE=i... #NoKings
We wish this was a politically boring time, and America’s 250th birthday could be memorialized and celebrated simply with fireworks and kitschy parades.
Unfortunately, it’s up to us to make some new history with organized people power at a scale this country has never seen.
“Asked if Americans should worry about Iran retaliating against Americans on U.S. soil, President Donald Trump responded, ‘I guess.’”

BREAKING: we’re taking action to prevent the DOJ from obtaining New Jersey voters’ personal data.
The DOJ’s demand for NJ’s unredacted voter rolls is a dangerous attempt by the Trump administration to disenfranchise voters, especially within our most vulnerable communities.
We'll see you in court.

Rep Tom Kean Jr just voted to let the #MadKing wage war however he pleases, with no limits or restrictions from Congress.
He voted NO on the war powers resolution. Of course! He always does what Trump wants.
Hey Tom! #NJ07 will remember in November!

Trump administration won't help Americans get out of the Middle East, but will make sure that oil and gas companies get their products out with a naval escort?

Cory Booker to Kristi Noem: “Either you are utterly incompetent or you are violating laws with impunity — You should step down from your position. If you don’t, you should be removed by this president, and if not, Congress should impeach you”
I talked to a lot of smart experts about how the Iran war might end. The consensus was that Trump's idea of regime-change-by-bombing was a "fantasy"
www.vox.com/politics/481...
Pete Hegseth's crazed rants at reporters reveal that Trump's rationales for attacking Iran are incoherent, confused, and based on lies. Dems don't have to take refuge in criticizing Trump's war on purely procedural grounds. They can go much harder. 1/

A big part of the authoritarian playbook is war. War takes over the news. War blots out criticism. War divides a nation’s people, subjecting those against it to being called unpatriotic. War grants leaders all sorts of emergency powers. War consumes everything else.
We mustn’t let this war do so.
Wow, just like everything else they do, no plan to evacuate Americans…
NJ 11, get ready to vote! Drop boxes are now open. We are so ready to send @analiliafornj.bsky.social to Congress
STOP ICE IN ROSELAND
Trump and his gang lie about their reasons for starting a war.
They lie about the targets of ICE roundups.
They lie about science, vaccines, climate.
They lie about slashing services to pay for tax cuts.
They lie about tariffs etc etc etc.
And #NJ07 Rep Tom Kean Jr just nods along.
