The rule of law continues to collapse.

The rich are getting pardons for their crimes while the working class is killed in the streets.

It's time for Democrats to oust Chuck Schumer from leadership

If Democratic voters want a Democratic Party that fights, some are going to have to vote against their current representatives during the primaries.

Don’t expect a leopard to change its spots.

Look at who their funders are and act accordingly.

Fascism always fails, but it drags the innocent down with it.

We are one year into this four-year regime, and things are only spiraling.

Stop pretending it won’t get worse.

We must prepare our communities now for the violence they’ll bring as they lose their grip on power.

They have BlackRock. We have... well, a chicken and YOU. 🐔✊🏼

We're proving you don't need corporate PAC money to run a winning campaign in Georgia's 5th District.

Help us reach our $10k goal by the end of the month! Link in bio.

Grok's "edit" tool is being used to strip women of their clothes without consent.

Unregulated chatbots are trapping users in "Al Psychosis", delusion loops that validate paranoia instead of challenging it.

We need a regulations that protects our minds and our bodies. #gapol

Our case challenging President Trump’s attempt to end birthright citizenship in front of the Supreme Court is one of the biggest cases of the century.

We’re fighting to preserve the very fabric of this nation.

The permission structure for invading other countries has been set. It won’t stop at Venezuela.
Trump on Sheinbaum: "The cartels are running Mexico. She's not running Mexico. We could be politically correct & nice and say, 'Oh, yes, she is.' No no. And I've asked her number times, 'Would you like us to take out the cartels?' ... something is gonna have to be done with Mexico."

Rent is up. Food prices are climbing. The National Debt is exploding. Yet, we are watching another conflict unfold in Venezuela.

Do you think US intervention is really about "democracy," or is it about resources?

As we enter 2026, I want to remind folks that primary elections are where voters can decide to not have to choose between the lesser of two evils in general elections.

You do not have to vote against your self interests. In fact, that’s the opposite of how a democracy works.

Happy new years. Let’s start January off strong.

Spent the day waiting for the monks on their journey.

It was worth the 5-hour wait.

The monks gave me a lot to think about—specifically how we must first find peace in ourselves.

This country’s future depends on it. 🕊️

Your health should not depend on your bank account or your zip code.

For too long, corporate interests and entrenched politicians have treated healthcare as a luxury for the lucky few, rather than what it actually is, a fundamental human right.

I was also blown away by your generosity—thank you to everyone who brought a toy for the drive! 🎁 Because of you, we’re going to make the holidays a lot brighter for local kids.

Great conversations and great cause. This was only the first of many, so if you missed it, we’ll see you at the next one!

It was incredible meeting so many of you tonight! Thank you to everyone who came out to the meet and greet to share your stories, ask questions, and talk about the future of our district.

This year was extreme growth. We rose to the occasion, built real working-class power in GA-05, and we’re just getting started.

Nothing will stop us.
Not the cynics.
Not the lobbyists.
Not the status quo.

Join us in the fight. Volunteer, donate, and bring a friend. (Link in bio.) #gapol

I’m fighting for a $25/hour minimum wage, indexed to inflation, because 40 hours a week should cover rent, groceries, childcare, and a little breathing room, not just keep you trapped on a treadmill while corporations rake in record profits.

Millions of working people are going to lose their health care at the end of the month if Congress doesn't do something.

Mike Johnson and congressional Republicans need to schedule a floor vote to extend the Affordable Care Act subsidies immediately.
‼️BREAKING: Our discharge petition has enough signatures. Speaker Johnson is now FORCED to bring a vote to the House floor to extend ACA tax credits.

This can’t wait. Call your Member of Congress. We must vote NOW to protect healthcare.

Protesters disrupted a lame duck session of the Georgia Public Service Commission on Wednesday, demanding that commissioners not vote on a $20 billion spending plan presented by Georgia Power, which critics say could lock customers into paying higher costs for decades.

Starbucks @sbworkersunited.org baristas are standing up to corporate greed and Starbucks’ unfair labor practices and demanding the fair contract they deserve.

No contract? NO COFFEE!

Yesterday’s election showed people are ready for something new. Zohran proved it’s possible to beat the corporate establishment when you organize.

Now it’s our turn. We’re building that same movement in the South, to make Atlanta the progressive capital of the Southeast once again.
