Lorenzo Salgado Araujo was driving his construction crew to work when an ICE officer shot and killed him in Houston. He wasn’t even the person ICE was looking for. Now Texas voters are leaving their “I Voted” stickers at his memorial. #BlueWaveIn10Days

Shooting at a car to stop a shoplifter is not justified. Even if no one was harmed, let alone shooting to death a 1 year-old baby.

JUST IN: The police shooting that killed 1-year-old Kohen Wiley as he sat in his mother’s lap in a Walmart parking lot in Senatobia, Miss., in June “was justified,” Mississippi Attorney General Lynn Fitch’s office said on Monday. Her office will not charge the white officer who shot the child.

Notwithstanding that Walmart has pressed no charges for any form of shoplifting, I don’t care if Kohen Wiley’s mother robbed the goddam safe inside Wal Mart—NOTHING justifies the police shooting and killing 1-year-old Kohen Wiley. 1/2

We don't have a "climate problem." We have a greed problem. The planet isn't dying. It's being killed. And the killers have names, logos, and boardrooms. #ClimateJustice #StopEcocide

Everyone involved in this process — including the Palantir employees — have to be investigated and probably go to jail.

NEW: DHS agents tracked people observing ICE arrests, photographed them, ran their plates, pulled personal information, and added them to a Palantir database, according to newly unsealed court filings. w/ @regret.bsky.social

I don't wanna COUCH my words here: I know JD Vance, his eyeliner, and absent Ashley Moody are used to running away from people when things get tough because they care more about themselves and their billionaire buddies than the people they represent. But this is my home. /1

JD Vance on Angie Nixon: "Get the hell out of here. You don't belong in America"

I for one think it’s bad that the president can just say crazy stuff all day every day and 99% of it doesn’t make the news because we’ve normalized having an insane president

Q: Do you regret hiring a Nazi sympathizer as your political director? SEN. HUSTED: ... Q: There's just no comment on that? HUSTED: ... Q: There's just no comment on that? Nothing to the Jewish community? HUSTED: *walks away*

The United States has always been a country that loathes women. Hell, we’ve lost the right to make our own decisions regarding our health And any rights to a fair workplace or equitable pay? The GOP men want us back in the kitchen, pumping out babies to use for cheap labor.

What's become of America ?

Angie Nixon was arrested & fined $250 for protesting DeSantis' injustice. Ashley Moody worked with DeSantis to steal $10M from children who needed it for their healthcare. Florida: Elect the woman who fights power and injustice, not the one who is corrupted by it. Vote Angie Nixon for US Senate.

"Signs of Fascism" originated in my town. (Sequim, WA) I filmed it. I remember getting a call, "hey your video got 5,000 views." By the end of the day it had 60K. Over 100K in a few days from just one platform. Then my DM blew up! Everyone wanted to replicate the signs. Nice to see the signs today.
