Hennepin Co. neighbors: vote for CEDRICK FRAZIER aka @cedrickfrazier.bsky.social, NOT Anders Folk, who is a Republican - though he’s trying to hide it. Folk will of course support ICE in more murder and kidnapping. Cedric Frazier has promised to prosecute ICE. He’s the only choice!! Thank you.
We are proud to have Representative Cedrick Frazier represent the DFL on the ballot this year for Hennepin County Attorney. He is the only DFL-endorsed candidate in this race, and we encourage all Hennepin County DFLers to vote for him on or before November 3rd!

With just seven days until Election Day, every minute matters. We are calling on Meta to immediately restore the page and provide an explanation for its removal. Voters deserve access to critical election information, especially in these final days. @andymstone.bsky.social /end

I understood the kind of evil Bill Barr represented. He believes in GOP power and the unitary executive. Blanche just believes in Donald Trump getting away with crimes, even if it means raping kids.

Engaging with them and the far-right online drives attention, this is rage bait. Amplify our community and voices, ignore the others who believe we don't matter. @graze.social is helping cut through the noise and we recommend using it to track what's happening in your state.
🗳 midterms.graze.social is @graze.social's most ambitious project to date. And as of today, it's live. Let's take a look at what the next 27 days will look like 🧵

For several days I have been hearing rumors of an ICE detainee death that ICE was not reporting. I've just learned a local journalist has confirmed it and will publish soon. Now I read this and see there are actually TWO deaths ICE is not reporting. www.daylightsandiego.org/ice-detainee...

A political party tries to court people's votes. An authoritarian regime tries to keep people from voting and keep votes from counting.
Netanyahu is sounding utterly desperate today. He's posting non-stop about high Arab voting turnout to create hysteria and fear. He also released a video statement claiming "They are trying to steal the election from us!" Arab Israelis make up 21% of the Israeli electorate.

Last year today was one of the scariest days of my life. We initially called a lawyer who wanted to work with feds to arrange a perp walk. Kat told that guy to fuck himself. Thank God for the National Lawyer's Guild, who Kat called right after. They were ready to fight the bullshit on zero notice.
Today is the anniversary of being told by an FBI agent that I was about to be federally indicted. I tried to look for pictures from that day but all there is the tableau of full-body stress hives all over my back. 0/10, take better pictures future Kat

This is a significant story about a highly credible victim who allegedly was raped by Donald Trump. Where is the legacy media? The expanding evidence of his raping not as interesting as Hillary’s emails? www.mediaite.com/media/news/f...

#ResistanceEarth The top 0.1% aren't just profiting from the pollution that's accelerating climate change. They're also making money off of disaster preparedness, recovery and the surging prices caused by extreme weather. I call it the asshole feedback loop. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

The US government poured all its resources into fabricating evidence that day laborer Kilmar Abrego Garcia was a criminal (all because he embarrassed the despot) even as it now rolls out the red carpet for an actual criminal who happens to be an ally of Trump

Authoritarians aren’t invincible. Brazil, Serbia and Hungary proved it by showing up, talking about everyday concerns and making sure every vote counted. America, you’re up.

Today, the parents of Alex Pretti said in the nine months since their son was killed in Minnesota, no one in the federal government has reached out to them. “We are here begging for the Department of Justice to do what is right, to hold the men who murdered our son accountable for what they did.”
