Next Tuesday, Election Day, see you at the Marana Council Chambers to let them know that Tucson will not stand for an ice detention center. MTC open your ice prison in Utah! Stay the fuck outta Pima County! PRICE SAYS NO TO ICE!

The Senate voted 50–46 tonight to block Trump’s tariffs on Canada, and yesterday it voted to block his tariffs on Brazil. Now we need the house to vote. Where’s the House? Is Johnson still guarding the Epstein files?

The Walton family (who own Walmart) are worth over $400 billion, yet many of their employees are on SNAP.

Bezos is worth over $400 billion, many Amazon employees require SNAP.

The people who need help are not the problem.

It’s corporate greed. It’s an unwillingness to pay a living wage.

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 84th day out of the last 96.

12 days of work in over 3 months.

With full pay and benefits.

The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.

It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

3/...when we are the people most affected by ice and we are the ones they are targeting and committing vast violations of constitutional and civil rights against and we are the ones that will be sent to this facility if it opens? We NEED RAZA speaking at the next meeting!! Made me happy to see so

Went to the ice detention center meeting at Coyote Trail Elementary in Marana last night. This proposed center needs to be stopped BEFORE it's opened! The Management Training Company that owns the building and wants to turn it into an ice facility is owned by one family in Utah. MTC is NOT publicly

AMERICAN FAMILIES WILL STARVE AND SUFFER WITHOUT SNAP BENEFITS.

A government shutdown should not be able to hurt over 40 million innocent Americans.

Nobody should be forced to skip a meal in the so-called richest country on Earth.

This is class warfare.

Amid fears of detention, US citizens are carrying passports and avoiding Spanish in public A growing number of American citizens say they live in fear of being detained by ICE and are taking precautions like carrying their passports.

If you're brown you're already a suspect. All these ice fascists are committing crimes and need to be put on trial.

🧡Thread: The Gaza Ministry of Health has released images of Palestinian bodies returned by Israeli authorities β€” some 150 so far, fewer than the 15-to-1 ratio originally agreed under the ceasefire exchange deal.

They arrived without names, tagged only with numbered labels, making identification nearly impossible. Many show signs of abuse β€” torture, blindfolds, bindings to hands and feet, gunshot wounds to the head, missing limbs and organs, and severe decomposition.

In the posts that follow, we are publishing the photographs released by the Ministry, accompanied by brief context for each. Viewer discretion is strongly advised. The images are deeply disturbing.

#Tucson #NoKings protest in Presidio Plaza downtown yesterday. We had young, old, raza, white, native, all kinds of people in attendance. The vibe was festive and hopeful and energetic. Tucson wants justice and Tucson always turns out for it. 3000+ people let the orange felon know, its time to go!

Thank you to the organizers of today's wildly successful (and peaceful) "No Kings" rallies. You did an amazing job. And thanks to all the millions of people who showed up to give us faith. And a special shout out to the White House regime and the Speaker of the House for all the free publicity!

At the #Tucson #NoKings protest earlier today. If I had to guess I'd say there were around 3000 people. It took half an hour from the first marchers arriving at El Presidio plaza until the last. The march wrapped around downtown for blocks. Tucson doesn't lie down, we step into the ring & we fight!

NYC is so "out of control and crime ridden" that NYPD had to arrest (checks note) exactly zero people today.

100,000+ protestors. ZERO arrests.

ZERO.

This isn't only a major slap in Trump's face. It proves YET AGAIN that the only violence ICE fascists are facing, is violence ICE fascists incite.
