It's Not Over https://indivisiblebr.org/its-not-over/

Being an American isn't about your ancestry or ethnicity. It's about fidelity to the meaning of this country - its revolutionary, threefold promise of political equality, economic opportunity, and personal liberty.

Rep. Chassion #fairmaps #Louisiana What Americans sound like. May 28, 2026 floor speech @indivisbatonrouge.bsky.social @simonwdc.bsky.social @therickwilson.bsky.social

We need to be encouraging citizens to run for office. Too many are “elected” without opposition, without being on the record. Denying choice which is required to find the common good. @democracydocket.com @simonwdc.bsky.social

NEW: Just 10 days before the primary election, SCOTUS eliminated a Black-majority district. But in 2022, that same court said it was too close to an election to give Black voters a fairer map. These decisions reveal the same pattern: urgency for white voters, and white voters only.

We have an economic problem masquerading as a political one and if we do not address the billionaire crime syndicate destroying all dimensions of society, we may dilute the fascism a bit by not losing the next election but we sure as hell won't rid ourselves of it.

Democratic senators: It's time to draw a line in the sand. A nominee for Attorney General will soon come before you. Make the confirmation process about releasing ALL of the Epstein files (without redactions) and prosecuting the Epstein class. (1/2)

Hey media-- Pam Bondi is not a victim -- she willingly carried out Trump's political agenda to prosecute his political enemies and undermine free and fair elections. Todd Blache is not shouldering a "burden" or "walking a tightrope." He is a willing accomplice. Language matters.

Saudi Arabia reportedly wants Trump to launch a ground invasion of Iran. Remember: Trump's family has deep business ties to Saudi Arabia, including new luxury properties in Riyadh and Jeddah. Trump cannot be trusted to put protecting American lives over lining his own pockets.

In this economy, connections matter more than competition. When rules weaken, markets get riskier, and working people pay the price. That means less stability, fewer opportunities for educators and families. Our economy should work for everyone, not just the well-connected. @warren.senate.gov

BREAKING: Hundreds of workers at a key supplier of  Navy ships are on strike. 650 designers, clerks, and engineers walked out of Bath Iron Works, rejecting a contract from General Dynamics. The workers say the offer doesn't sufficiently address wages, insurance, or retirement.

Before joining us in the streets on Saturday for No Kings Day, check out tonight’s know your rights training to learn about your constitutional right to peacefully protest and best practices for reducing risks.

No Kings Day will be too big to ignore.

Billionaires are hoarding their wealth to corrupt our politics and entrench their power. Those very same billionaires are bankrolling the wannabe king, making a bet that selling out our democracy will be rewarded with personal financial favors. We commend the many Democrats who are fighting back.

Families can't afford healthcare, food, and housing, but Trump is spending billions to send violent ICE agents into our communities. I'm marching on March 28 at #nokingssouthlaketx #NoKings to say NO KINGS. app.sosha.ai/s/Gjd9DTj7

From the Bay to LA, @cftunion.bsky.social's @jeff-f7.bsky.social & @bft1078.bsky.social's Regina Chagolla brought state-wide solidarity for @utlanow.bsky.social ✊

Technically, the president can't leave NATO without congressional approval. He also can't start a war without congressional approval, yet here we are. (2024 National Defense Authorization Act)

HANDS OFF: 1300 events NO KINGS 1: 2100 events NO KINGS 2: 2700 events NO KINGS 3: 3000 events and counting Let’s make history. Again.

Please stop referring to the Voter Elimination Act by the Orwellian moniker MAGA gave it, which makes it sound good. We do not need to repeat their words (ahem, "Patriot Act," "Citizens United") but rather make clear exactly what's at stake.

The SAVE America Act is a voter suppression scam. It would take away the rights of working people to make their voices heard at the ballot box. The Senate must reject this bill.

If you're a service member being ordered to prep for deployment for the War in Iran and you have moral and/or ethical misgivings on all this, remember that you have the right to apply for conscientious objector status. Call the G.I. Rights hotline: 1-877-447-4487

Slotkin: "If Russia is helping to kill US forces, we have crossed a rubicon. We have to take decisive action on that. Instead, we're giving them breaks on oil. They're making a ton of money."

BREAKING: As many as 150 U.S. troops have been wounded in the war with Iran, according to sources familiar—far higher than the Pentagon’s publicly disclosed figure of just 8 seriously wounded troops. The true toll of this war is already far worse than the public has been told. (Reuters)

No Democrat should vote for a single penny of a military appropriation for the Iran War until they first get to vote on a Declaration of War.

Tomorrow is Election Day! Do not wait to vote at the end of the day. This sign was up during the last election off 820! We need to say Vote No to Illegal Wars! #ElectionDay

That one person can drag us into a war without consulting or even notifying Congress, or our allies, or fully explaining to the American people why this is necessary, is absolutely bonkers. Reminder that Congress has the power to stop this.

BREAKING: Today Bernie Sanders is proposing new legislation to raise $4.4 trillion in taxes from America’s billionaires — a move that would virtually cut their massive fortunes in half. A chunk of the money raised would go toward sending a $3K stimulus check to every person earning under $150K.

Congress isn’t powerless to stop Trump’s war with Iran. From immediate oversight, to forcing a vote on a War Powers Resolution, to restricting or cutting off funding for unauthorized hostilities, tell your elected officials to use every lever in their toolbox to put an immediate stop to this war.

Like everything else he’s done since returning to power, Trump’s war with Iran is incredibly unpopular. Congress has a constitutional obligation to assert its war powers immediately and block any further military action. Our elected officials must hear from us: act.indivisible.org/sign/no-iran...

Sunday Funday peaceful protest in the streets fighting for our freedoms and liberty. Veterans Against Trump and Fascism in Keller TX. #NoKings #AbolishICE

Saying "it's a distraction" is saying you care nothing for the little girls bombed out of existence for being born where they were. Epstein, ICE, Iran - all of it - are Crimes against Humanity by the MAGA Murder Regime. Praying for the people of Iran and an end to this hell.

We know that Trump is going to repeat the “I’ve been exonerated on Epstein” line every single day forever because that’s what he does. Would it be totally outrageous for someone then to simply ask him who it was that exonerated him so we can get some clarification on that?

Congress needs to do its job.

Is the regime trying to build an ICE detention camp near you?

There’s only 1 person in Congress who doesn’t trade stocks, doesn’t take corporate PAC money, and has a public schedule. That’s me. And it should be the standard.

DHS funding ran out over the weekend. Democrats made it clear they would not support any appropriations bill without restrictions on ICE — and when the vote came, they did not fold. Now we must encourage our Members of Congress to keep holding the line to stop ICE’s terror tactics for good.

DHS funding ran out at midnight last night, triggering a partial government shutdown. Republicans had a choice between supporting massively popular, desperately needed restrictions on ICE and Border Patrol or shutting down DHS. And they chose to shut down DHS. 🧵

Reframing is the opposite of gaslighting. @mollyjongfast.bsky.social @anatosaurus.bsky.social @parkroseperma.bsky.social

Two more wins today! A federal judge in Washington blocked an effort by the Defense Secretary to punish Sen. Mark Kelly over a video reminding service members that they must refuse unlawful orders. The judge made clear that political retaliation has no place in how the military is governed.

Calling it "Citizens United" instead of "Corporations Unleashed" makes our cause to stop billionaires from purchasing themselves politicians and thus total say over our lives sound like we oppose "people being in solidarity." Let's not do same with the Eliminating Voters Act.

@meidastouch.com Consider making some Spanish language videos like @briantylercohen.bsky.social It is needed.

I just voted NO on the spending package because it still includes DHS funding. NO blank check for ICE to continue lawless killings. Let’s get real changes made.

Can Minnesota pay Tom Homan $50,000 to get ICE out?
