We can’t afford to have a Democratic Party that’s divided between fighters and folders — and we don’t have to accept the status quo. As grassroots organizers and voters, we have the power to remake the party: indivisible2026.org/?utm_source=bluesky

The Epstein Class has to go.

My bill legally requires DOJ to release the files in 7 days by December 19th.

Any attempts to scrub, coverup, or conceal the truth is subject to prosecution.
🚨 BREAKING: Oversight Dems received 95,000 new photos from Jeffrey Epstein's estate. These disturbing images raise even more questions about Epstein and his relationships with some of the most powerful men in the world.

Time to end this White House cover-up. Release the files!

Kilmar Abrego Garcia speaks at the ICE Baltimore field office for a scheduled check-in. Abrego was released from custody after a federal judge ruled that the Trump administration lacked legal authority to continue holding him in an immigration detention center.

Nothing says “we fight drug trafficking into the US” like pardoning a man convicted by a US jury for trafficking 400 TONS of cocaine into US. Let’s kill 80 souls on tiny boats 1000 mi away, who we have NO ACTUAL proof of involvement in trafficking, & free THIS guy www.politico.com/news/2025/12...
Trump officially pardons ex-Honduran president of drug trafficking conviction
The president has framed the case as yet another example of overreach from the administration of Joe Biden.

The EPA will approve two new pesticides containing “forever chemicals” and relax a reporting rule for companies who make products with forever chemicals.

The moves come after a $60 million lobbying blitz from the forever chemical industry.

SNAP is a lifeline for workers in low-wage jobs.

Meanwhile, CEOs are paid 280x as much as the typical worker.

Don’t be angry at workers for using food stamps.

Be angry at the corporations paying them so little that they need them.

Such a powerful video ... and to learn there are about 1000 victims and just this handful has come forward. There's a lot of pain hiding in darkness still and too many perpetrators in plain sight living free and feeling invincible.

It's time to address this longstanding atrocity. Vote to release!

Remember: The concentration of wealth in the hands of a few isn't just bad for our economy. It's corrosive to our democracy.

When the wealthy and well-connected control our political system, regular people don't have a voice.

The result? The demagoguery and corruption we're seeing now.

ICEstapo detained 81 people in Charlotte, NC yesterday.

The internet is littered with videos of them using excessive force and ignoring legal documentation provided by the detainees.

Here’s my advice for ICEstapo:

Take a night off.

Go to the movies.

Watch “Nuremberg”.

Your time is coming.
