Witnessing southern states rush to dismantle black voting power is truly truly some heartbreaking shit to behold

State supreme court justices play a critical role in defending your rights and freedoms, which is why the election happening in Georgia right now is so important. Make sure you have a plan to vote for Jen Jordan and Miracle Rankin.

🤣

It’s staggering How swiftly states in the South can still move to stymie Black voters And how ready they were to do so

Following the Supreme Court’s ruling striking down a second-majority Black congressional district in Louisiana, at least four other Southern states—Alabama, Louisiana, Mississippi, and South Carolina—are considering passing new redistricting maps before the midterms.

Rep. @brotherjones.bsky.social burns a confederate flag in the rotunda after the House passed 9-0 maps stripping Memphis of representation… #Memphis #JimCrow @MarshaBlackburn @GovBillLee

Billie Eilish: "No one is illegal on stolen land"

Grief stood like a sentinel in public. On the steps of the Public Theater, Peter Dinklage read Amanda Gorman's poem, "For Renee Nicole Good." No spectacle. Just a voice carrying loss out loud. Renee should be here. Saying her name matters. Remembrance is resistance.

Sitting President attempts to steal $10 BILLION from taxpayers. The most corrupt regime of our lifetimes. With no close second. And the Hunter hunters are silent. www.nbcnews.com/politics/don...

Ossoff: "This is one of the most consequential votes this Senate will take all year. By saying yea or nay to the clerk of the Senate later today, senators will decide whether people live or die. Senators will decide whether Georgians & folks across the country are financially ruined or have a shot."

So, just to make sure we are all on the same page. The next Democratic candidate for POTUS, should reform and expand the Supreme Court, right?

To my friends in the mainstream media (of which I was long a part): if you book Stephen Miller on your shows, you are part of the problem. There’s a temptation to do it because his inflammatory lies bring ratings. But giving him a platform to spew lies/incite violence is morally unjustifiable.

If you have a screenshot of a US politician or leader blaming the left, or declaring some war, or anything before we knew who the shooter was, please post in the comments. We will need to keep these

Yesterday's Supreme Court decision endangers our communities and subjects people to immigration stops simply because of the color of their skin, occupation, or the language they speak. This fight isn't over. Our right to live free from racial profiling is fundamental.

California, Oregon and Washington announced yesterday they’ve created their own health alliance, saying the CDC has become “a political tool that increasingly peddles ideology instead of science.” New York, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Delaware, Pennsylvania and Rhode Island have now done the same.

CHICAGO!!! We’re out protesting at the Broadview Detention Center (1930 Beach St) where ICE is detaining and deporting our neighbors. We’ve scared them off once today. Come by and help us do it again.

There is no democratic justification for withholding these files. This is a coverup.⁩

"On Sunday, the govt tried to kidnap hundreds of Guatemalan kids and sneak them out of the country. This gross abuse was only halted by the quick action of Judge Sooknanan. It was a remarkable display of judicial tenacity and a testament to how the DOJ has shredded its credibility with the courts."

Great news for everyone who wants to force the Justice Department to release the Epstein files!

PULTE: Public officials shouldn't be exempt from scrutiny SORKIN: Speaking of that, Ken Paxton has at least 3 examples of alleged mortgage fraud. Are you looking at that? PULTE: Unless it's been made public, I'm not going to comment on any specific situation S: Why wouldn't you make it public?

WATCH — Sen. @ossoff.senate.gov : "It's been extraordinary to see the Speaker of the House reduced to lying in order to cover up sex crimes.” He adds that RFK JR. must resign.

There’s only one way to make us stop demanding the release of the Epstein files.

Ossoff: "It's been extraordinary to see the Speaker of the House reduced to lying in order to cover up sex crimes"

Massie: "The Speaker of the House just offered a fig leaf to my colleagues. They're gonna vote on a non-binding resolution today that does absolutely nothing ... they're allowing the DOJ to curate all of the information that the DOJ is giving them ... the perpetrators are being protected"

OF COURSE the WH decries the release of the #EpsteinFiles as hostile. THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES WAS BEST FRIENDS WITH SERIAL CHILD SEX ABUSER. Live updates: House lawmakers hold news conference with Epstein victims while pushing for release of case files www.nbcnews.com/politics/tru...

“We the victims of Jeffrey Epstein, are compiling our OWN list. We know the names, stay tuned.” 😭😭😭 if ya’ll really care about these victims, you need to be watching this press conference

@democrats.senate.gov @housedemocrats.bsky.social @maddow.msnbc.com RELEASE ALL THE EPSTEIN FILES. There is a woman in prison for child trafficking and the main accused perpetrator is dead. ONLY the names of the victims should be redacted. Political icons, rich, famous or unknown are not immune.

CNN: Epstein victims speak out MSNBC: Epstein victims speak out BBC: Epstein victims speak out FOX: 5-Year-Old Sneaks Out of Home to go to Chick-Fil-A

Victims of Jeffrey Epstein rallied outside the U.S. Capitol, calling for A.G. Pam Bondi to release the Epstein files in their entirety

Pritzker: When did we become a country where it's okay for the president to insist on national television that a state should call him to beg for anything, especially something we don't want? Have we truly lost all sense of sanity in this nation that we treat this as normal?

The largest SNAP cuts in history went into effect yesterday, eliminating or drastically cutting food assistance for millions of Americans. And it’s all to pay for more tax cuts that primarily benefit the super-rich. Trickle-down economics isn't just a hoax — it's cruel.

BREAKING: The Pentagon has authorized up to 600 military lawyers to serve as temporary immigration judges. This is a blatant expansion of military power into a civilian judicial process, a dangerous erosion of the separation between the two. Every day, we inch closer to fascism.

If you're 60, 69.1% of all job growth since your birth occurred under Democratic administrations. If you're 45, that number is 74.7%. If you're under 28, the number is 100%. Happy Labor Day.

Trump is once again weaponizing government power for revenge. Schiff, James, and Cook are the latest targets—dragged into “fraud” investigations pulled straight from Trump’s enemies list. This isn’t justice. It’s political retribution. adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/selective-...

Hey Congress – make Alex Acosta's testimony public and televised. There's absolutely no ethical reason for it to be private and transcribed. Nefarious AF. We need to hear your questions. We want to see him squirm. We need to see him squirm. Yet another sign of a cover-up.

We won't shop at companies that profit off detention. Beginning today, we call on everyone who wants ICE out of our communities to #BoycottAmazon and all of its consumer brands, including #BoycottWholeFoods. Sign the pledge and tell us you're on board: FreeDCproject.org/amazon
