In 3 weeks, and for sure in 2028, let’s make every state Capitol and DC look like Serbia and Brazil!! Love to see the people triumph over right wing fear mongering. The People United Will Never Be Defeated!

People in Belgrade celebrated following Serbia's Aleksandar Vucic speech conceding defeat to a student-led protest movement in a historic election that ends his long grip on power and heralds a new political era in the Balkan country. reut.rs/4zkXvww

🧊🚨Imagine if ICE officers used all that man boy fascist energy to do something positive like get people to vote? Thats NICE (Nagging In-yo-Face Cast-a-ballot Enforcement!) Go to Ballotpedia.org and vote411.org ! 🇺🇸 NICE is supported by c4aa.org #midterms #electionday #abolishice #vote #getoutthevote

Read HCR’s letter about the stock market crash of 1929. We’ve been here before. Americans suffered , and voted in FDR. We did it before— completely changed the federal government and created a New Deal which built the American middle class. We can do it again. We need a Green New Deal!

NEW: A bird flu outbreak has been raging uncontrolled on a Utah mink farm for two months. Flu experts fear it could spark a devastating human pandemic. But officials haven’t acted — instead prioritizing the financial interests of the fur trade.

🤢🤮🤮 The anti Muslim racism, the Islamophobia is abhorrent. My local school board has a Muslim woman running and the online bot trolls are disgusting.

❗❗❗Mark Zuckerberg's meta just suspended the No Kings Instagram account. I just rushed back from my local No Kings to jump on this. Bottom line, would be helpful for all pro-No Kings folks to elevate the issue and help us get the word out about No Kings today. The Nerd Reich strikes again.

Full update from our team. We STILL do not have admin access to the account.

Update: without explanation, and after being suspended for more than an hour during peak mobilization time, Zuckerberg's Instagram restored the No Kings account but we still lack admin access. More to come. Rest assured we will not stop organizing against this regime and its collaborators.

Kid Rock on Fox & Friends: "It appears that El-Sayed is assimilated ... and I would like to make the point that there have been other people who have assimilated to this country. The Fort Hood shooter. Those extremists that became pilots and crashed into our World Trade Center."

The Original Sin of politics was the invention of the passive voice, when Adam and Eve ate of the Tree of Vague Unaccountability. Wild how all those violent ICE agents just … got hired … and deployed … somehow. Who can possibly say how? It’s all a mystery.

Susan Collins: "I think what happened is far too many ICE officers were hired and deployed without adequate vetting and training"

What is this fuckery

South Dakota Searchlight@southdakotasearchlight.com

Due to new state laws, nearly 6,000 South Dakotans have been designated as federal-only voters ahead of the Nov. 3 general election, meaning they can only vote in federal contests such as congressional races and not state or local races or ballot questions. buff.ly/9baT6Y9

Replying to @ramirez.house.gov

Today, I introduced the Reimagining Safety Act, community-led legislation that would dismantle DHS, Melt ICE, and create a new human- and community-centered federal Department of Community Safety to promote collective care and well-being.
