I think you mean protesters are being attacked by agents.

I just spoke with the White House after another horrific shooting by federal agents this morning. Minnesota has had it. This is sickening.

The President must end this operation. Pull the thousands of violent, untrained officers out of Minnesota. Now.

Leverage doesn’t only come from holding more seats. It comes from moments when the other side needs your votes, and because of the filibuster, Republicans couldn’t reopen the government without Democratic support. That’s why people saw this as a real opportunity to negotiate for the ACA.

That’s typical for them, but did we actually have a plan with the 40 day shutdown? Because we walked away with nothing, so it feels like Chuck Schumer was just winging it. At this point, it’s time for him to step down from leadership.

We had leverage, but we didn’t have leadership. Please call for Chuck Schumer to step down as minority leader.

@neguse.house.gov: "I think it is outrageous for these Republican senators to effectively guarantee themselves million-dollar paydays, a provision in this bill that very clearly applies to them. ... This is insanity to allow this provision to go forward"

Thank you for standing up for the ACA, but last night’s budget vote exposed real fractures among Senate Democrats and a growing disconnect from the American people. It’s time to consider new leadership that can restore unity and direction to the party. Please call on Chuck Schumer to step down.

I appreciate your continued effort, but last night’s budget vote revealed deep divisions within the party and a disconnect from the American people. It may be time for Democrats in the Senate to choose new leadership that can bring unity and purpose back to the party.

Thank you for your fight, but after last night’s budget vote, it’s clear the party is not unified with each other or with the people it claims to represent. It may be time for new leadership among Senate Democrats.

Our Salmon Heart made it all the way to Spain!

The "Salmon Heart" design was created for LifeCenter Northwest by #Tlingit artist @nickalanart.bsky.social from Ketchikan, Alaska, to symbolize the importance of organ & tissue donation in Native Alaskan communities.

Just picked up a new book and it’s incredible. This Haida designers work transforms fashion and regalia into cultural storytelling. From dresses and jackets to traditional button robes and business wear, she’s one of the first Indigenous designers to merge formline design with high fashion.

This is a lie. We all saw the video. The Senator clearly identified himself, and he did not "lunge" toward anyone.

If these miserable propagandists will lie to you about roughing up a U.S. Senator in a room full of reporters, what won't they lie to you about?

The termination of 850 Indian Health Service physicians, nurses, and dentists will have a grave impact on access to care for millions of Native Americans.

Upholding our treaty obligations is not optional.

This illustration depicts a stylized purple wolf standing on a small rock, gazing upward under a yellow crescent moon. The background is a muted pink with scattered golden stars, creating a serene nighttime atmosphere. The wolf’s expression is bold, with simplified features and textured fur markings adding visual interest.

Just wanted to share my illustration of a mother octopus for Raven and the Hidden Halibut, part of the award-winning Baby Raven Reads program, which provides books to Alaska Native families with children under 5. #indigenous #alaskanative #childrensbooks

US Archivist Accused of Sanitizing American History Exhibits National Archives Museum leader Colleen Shogan allegedly removed mentions of negative events that might anger Republicans or upset visitors, reports the Wall Street Journal.

Archivist Colleen Shogan whitewashed National Archives exhibits, erasing references to the government’s attempts to eradicate Indigenous people to appease GOP lawmakers and avoid β€˜confronting’ visitors.

The first rule of resisting tyranny: do not obey in advance.
