We're not "kicking off" a race to the bottom with gerrymandering-- it's already here. Republicans have gerrymandered NC, OH, FL, KY, WV, UT and now TX. Unilateral disarmament is not a sign of strength, it's literally how we lose. You're a CA assemblymember; if anyone should see the stakes, it's you.

Gerrymandering is bad actually And anyone, even governors, who are proposing this are playing a dangerous game that’ll further undermine democracy and further the race to the bottom of fascism www.politico.com/news/2025/07...

Brother Bill’s operates a community market in my district—and every time they open the doors, families show up by the hundreds. They’re doing everything they can to fight hunger. But now they’ve got more people coming in, less food to give, and staff who can’t even afford to stay. (1/2)

“Are you the branch manager?” “Yes I am, how can I help you?” “I would like two branches, please.” “How would you like that?” “Two big sticks, four little sticks.”

I flagged this in April and have been howling it into the void. Trump wants Black & Latino incarcerated U.S. citizens sent to CECOT in El Salvador, Congo, South Sudan. These are the “homegrown” Trump talked about with the Salvadoran PM. Please. Take this seriously. open.substack.com/pub/sherrily...

This is oligarchy. This is obscene. While 60% live paycheck to paycheck & kids go hungry, Jeff Bezos, worth $230 billion, goes to Venice on his $500 million yacht for a $20 million wedding & spends $5 million on a ring while his real tax rate is just 1.1%. End this oligarchy.

I rarely post personal things. But I need to talk about my 4-year-old niece, Hope. She has a rare disease. A drug called elamipretide has helped her survive. But the FDA recently denied its approval. Now, her health hangs in the balance. Please share her story & urge the FDA to reconsider. 🧵

Unironically the thing I love about this point, is that it's a great basis to start talking to y'all about the fact that most of the people in jail in the US are just as innocent as Khalil. Many are Black folk that have been arrested with *absolutely no basis*, but wait *over a year* to see a judge.

Robert Black@hurricanexyz.bsky.social

The thing about the Khalil case is that it's very very good that he's free now but you can't have it take three months between "the government kidnaps you off the street for no basis reason whatsoever" and "a judge makes them let you go." You just can't.

BREAKING: ICE agents are run off the property at Dodgers stadium. Fans, protestors and the LA Dodgers themselves have refused ICE agents access to Dodgers stadium. Here is LAPD escorting them off the estate. More of this! Resist. (🎥 Kevin Takumi, Fox L.A.)
