Friends - I watched this dozens of times. And each time with tears in my eyes, I am reminded what we became and what we were. I am Alex Pretti!
I implore you to keep them alive in our collective consciousness and memory. Give them their voices, show their faces. The lives of Alex Pretti and Renee Good were ripped away by ICE monsters. Don't let this fade into the background! Please share! #StopTheMadness #StopTrump #StopICE #resist 👊🏼

Wowza. Miami just elected its first Democratic mayor in three decades. “Higgins won the runoff election by securing 59% of the votes, defeating her Republican competitor Emilio Gonzalez, who was endorsed by…Trump & got nearly 41%,”per official results. 12/10/25 …1/ www.bbc.com/news/article...
@katyturreport.bsky.social I did not vote for Blakeman for county executive. He’s a trump man and he ran a smear campaign. His ICE operation spawned a lawsuit from the NY Civil Liberties Union alleging law violations and potential racial profiling. He won’t get my vote for gov. No way.

If you know California voters, tell them that if Trump rigs the next election and Republicans keep Congress, they will most certainly not certify the election in 2028 if they don't like the result. No one is saying gerrymandering is good, but unilaterally disarming could be the end of our democracy.
These are being circulated in LA and possibly around the state. Obv a RW op and recognized as such by many at this point but we have work to do. Just for your awareness, esp if you plan to help to pass the CA ballot measure.

Hi. I’m the executive director of the organization that had the honor of hosting the FEMA Katrina Declaration and I can confirm this is a lie. NICE TRY, KRISTI! @standupforscience.bsky.social @atrupar.com
O'Keefe to Noem: "At least 20 people who signed this letter were current FEMA employees & they've been placed on administrative leave. Is it now the policy of DHS that anytime an employee puts their name on something criticizing you or POTUS, they should anticipate being put on leave or fired?"

#WealthTax. They’ll never miss it, and they’ll make it back in a flash. Billionaires tax cuts are a joke, too. They can easily pay AND create jobs, etc. Epstein clients deserve shame and jail time.
THEY spent millions to elect a felon—TO ROB YOU. Their BILLIONS shield Epstein’s monsters. DEMAND: 1. RELEASE #EpsteinClientList 2. END billionaire tax cuts 3. ENACT #WealthTax ➡️ TAG 3 ➡️ REPOST & JOIN the fight Silence feeds THEM. #Epstein #Trump #Oligarchy

Hundreds of public safety grants cut, worth $500 million, funded initiatives like drug treatment and gun violence prevention programs.
How can any green card holders feel safe if they did this to this man?
“As a native of northern Europe who has followed legal guidelines & sometimes reposted conservative tweets on X, Kasper Eriksen does not represent a typical target of anti-immigrant fervor.” (And yet he has been in an ICE detention center for over a month.) 5/15/25 1/ msindy.org/p/danish-leg...

Since 2005, we've fought for the WTC Health Program. In 2019, we thought the battle was won. Now, we're back in D.C. facing staffing cuts, underfunding, and broken promises. 9/11 heroes showed up, why won't our government? #neverforget #911health #DOGE @johnfeal9117.bsky.social

(WSJ: free) In case you have taken your eye off this, as I did, the same old sh_t is going on with Trump and his family, investing, building, crypto, being bought for cash, and giving political favors. They will never change until in JAIL. www.wsj.com/world/middle...
So much here.
I asked if I could take his picture. Yes. I stepped across a band of shit. The pigeons began to frighten. Too close. A cloud of gray & blue & pink rushed at me. He looked up. Bare of birds. He said nothing. I stepped back. The birds returned. Together they ate. He said “Now,” & I took my picture.

Bill Owens: you are the man, full of courage and the ability to do the right thing. We'll miss you totally. Thank you for your years of service.
Jake Tapper: "One 60 Minutes source tells me, 'The lawsuit was baseless. Bill Owens wouldn't apologize. He wouldn't bend. He fought for the broadcast and for independent journalism and that cost him his job. It's shameful.'"
