NEW β€”Β With Khanna, Chu, and Foushee joining this week, 30 members of Congress are now signed onto Delia Ramirez's Block the Bombs Act to block offensive weapon sales to Israel.

AIPAC poured over $2 million into Foushee's 2022 campaign. This week, she said she won't accept AIPAC money.

FYI Blue MAGA Democrats who believe they can predict the voting patterns of a future Puerto Rico πŸ‡΅πŸ‡· (@ some undetermined point post US statehood πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ ) when they don’t get PR β€˜s politics ***today***is as laughable as it is dangerous as it is clear that they do NOT respect BorinquΓ©n

James Carville sayin Dems should β€œunilaterally” force US Statehood πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έon Puerto Rico πŸ‡΅πŸ‡·β€”is just as colonial as Trump saying the US should make Greenland πŸ‡¬πŸ‡± or Canada πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦ a US state πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ

Denying people sovereignty for needs of empire β€”

Is wrong for BOTH Republicans & Democrats

Trump could name ALL Boricuas to the FOMB & it wouldn’t be any less colonial

The US πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έfiscal board has for 9yrs overruled Puerto Rico πŸ‡΅πŸ‡·β€˜s elected leaders & extracted PR β€˜s wealth in service of colonial debt

New faces for FOMB< a genuine decolonization process incl reparations

Boricuas want an end to the US appointed colonial junta πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ(FOMB) ruling over Puerto Rico β€˜s πŸ‡΅πŸ‡·elected govt

This is NOT that

This is restructuring la junta to better serve Trump & holders of the archipelago’s colonial debt who demand even MORE austerity than PR has already suffered

We are in a battle for the very conscience of our people

They don’t see us as humans and want to break our solidarity with the rest of our immigrant community

We can’t let them

Let’s go β€œBack to normal” it’s β€œJust an anomaly” response to Trump 1 made Trump 2

Probably not a great strategy to avoid Trump 3/something similar
