There's no ICE accountability without ending qualified immunity. They're murdering people. There won't be justice for the lives they've stolen, but there must be accountability. My bill with @markey.senate.gov would ensure families can sue the agents murdering their loved ones.

After being held in two of them as a boy, I fought for decades urging America to never again build concentration camps and put human beings in them. It breaks my heart to watch this happen twice now in my own lifetime.

Reformed January 6th participant (who refused a pardon): “You can't gaslight me. I was there. I saw the officers being pepper sprayed. I watched one of them fall down and hit his head and his back. So don't be telling me it wasn't violent.”

We cannot become numb to the outrage of this. The wife of the President’s Senior Advisor threatens a sovereign nation.

Powerful.

I haven’t seen many people talking about Mississippi. Mississippi is holding seven legislative special elections because their previous districts violated the voting rights act. We have a chance to break the state Senate super majority today. 1/2

Ewwwww. Gaudy as hell.

When we say No Kings, we mean Freedom. My speech in Cincinnati for the No Kings rally of October 18th. (video) snyder.substack.com/p/when-we-sa...

Speaker Johnson, you ready to swear me in?

NEW—US Department of Education sent out standard Out of Office language to employees on Wednesday in light of shutdown. Later yesterday, workers tell me they found someone had updated their auto-responses without consent to a new one blaming Democrats. Version of original on left, updated on right:

Of course. Unacceptable.

In 2020, we mapped out the danger zones that will close in on Americans over the next 30 years — combining climate data with wildfire projections by US Forest Service researchers and others. See what changes are in store for your county 👇

Trump is aggressively ignorant. He does not learn, actively resists it, and has surrounded himself with people who enable his stupidity.

That was fast. This is also why you don’t surrender to autocrats - you fight them and beat them.

Democratic trifectas are vital bulwarks against Trump’s MAGA agenda — and we can secure a new one in Trump’s backyard. Make some calls to help Virginia Democrats flip the governor’s mansion, hold the legislature, and win other key elections up and down the ballot. 👇

They just tear-gassed us. They tried to run us over in a van holding a peaceful protester. They shot us with pepper balls. They dragged another protester into the facility.

When an authoritarian, thin-skinned president forbids me to criticize him, some hear that as a threat, but I hear it as a challenge.

RFK Jr. is objectively pro-disease, pro-illness and pro-child death.

After years of complaining about cancel culture, the current administration has taken it to a new and dangerous level by routinely threatening regulatory action against media companies unless they muzzle or fire reporters and commentators it doesn’t like.

A free and democratic society cannot silence comedians because the President doesn’t like what they say. This is an attack on free speech and cannot be allowed to stand. All elected officials need to speak up and push back on this undemocratic act.

Monarez: "Kennedy demanded 2 things of me that were were inconsistent w/ my oath of office. He directed me to commit in advance to approving every ACIP recommendation regardless of the scientific evidence. He also directed me to dismiss career officials responsible for vaccine policy without cause"

The amount of shit I got for this segment at the time was astronomical, and it was all from people who now stalk CVS employees to get them fired for insufficient online sadness. Cheering on political violence is both evil and not new, an outgrowth of an internet intentionally dismantled years ago.

One day after the Supreme Court lifted the ban on racial profiling, federal agents swarmed a car in Van Nuys. Four masked agents with guns drawn yanked people out, slammed them to the ground, and pointed a weapon at a pregnant woman. There is no justification for this. None.

Northern Ireland man from Lisburn kidnapped by Trump’s Ice raids because he “looked like a Mexican”. He had the correct visa, all his documents. He’s never been in trouble with police. Held in terrible conditions. A fellow captive couldn’t get his medication and dropped dead of a heart attack

SCOTUS: considering race as one factor in a college applicant's file is blatantly unconstitutional ALSO SCOTUS: considering race as one factor in targeting whom to detain and deport is cool cool cool

If you are in Elk Grove Village & schaumburg I am getting postcards for swing states if anybody would like some!! will divide them however you want them is 25 50 or 100 but you would need to supply the stamps for the postcard we can always bring them to rallies or make some kind of arrangements

Real patriotism is wanting your country to be better. Real patriotism is wanting every single person who lives in it to have a stake in its success. Real patriotism is wanting the best for everyone in it. To have the best healthcare, education and life chances. I don’t need a flag outside my door

Watch what they do, not what they say

Newsom: We got here because the President is struggling. We got here because the President is one of the most unpopular presidents in U.S. history. We got here because he recognizes that he will lose the election.

“My budget has become double for food shopping”

I want to start a really important conversation now, every red state gerrymandering does not actually mean they win every single seat they gerrymander. 1/

People in Chicago are standing up for democracy with @tmftx.bsky.social, @jamestalarico.bsky.social and @texasdemocrats.bsky.social.

D.C. TODAY…

1) Violent crime is horrific and unacceptable no matter where it occurs. 2) DC's violent crime rate is at a 30-year low. 3) Presidents have no authority to unilaterally take control of DC. Congress would have to pass a law, and I won't let the current effort get that far.

Someone forgot to take down this webpage: www.justice.gov/usao-dc/pr/v...

If the Dems have the votes (and I think we're far enough into the unknown that they might), impeaching Alito and Thomas and replacing them with bright-eyed young liberal ideologues would be a better option than court packing

Question for Mike Flood: With $450 million being allocated to Alligator Alcatraz, and ICE burning through $8.4 million a day to illegally detain people—How much does it cost for fascism? How much do the tax payers have to pay for a fascist country?

"My photographer got hit twice by less than lethal rounds and he's got blood on one of his arms and we just took off running with the entire crowd. It was absolutely chaotic."

Breaking News: Measles cases have hit a record high this year surpassing any other since the contagious virus was declared eliminated in the U.S. in 2000.

As much as Trump wants to appear all-powerful, he is an unpopular lame-duck president who just signed into law the worst piece of legislation in modern American history. But we don’t just have to sit back and take it. Instead, we choose to organize. Find your local group: indivisible.org/groups

Let's not forget that the government--even this Trump regime--depends on the consent of the governed.

One aspect of the Republicans’ big, ugly bill that didn’t get enough attention until Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez elevated it over the last few days is the massive amounts of money it directs to the apprehension and detention of immigrants. https://trib.al/wtcaL64

Freedom from kings. Freedom from fascism. Power to the people forever. ♥️ Happy Independence Day 🇺🇸
