I am extremely proud of @AnaliliaForNJ.

I am also extremely proud of the progressive movement for standing in solidarity with her.

The momentum cannot fade, we must rally around candidates across the country to keep the momentum up.

What was meant to silence these ranchers brought them national attention, from rallies at the Colorado Capitol to a feature in Jordan Peele’s High Horse.

They don't care about the victims, they never did, and they're hoping you don't either.
“A review of 47 victims’ full names on Sunday found that 43 of them were left unredacted in files that were made public by the government on Friday, according to a Wall Street Journal analysis. Several women’s full names appeared more than 100 times in the files. “

Just like those the 1st, the heroes of the 2nd American Revolution will be dressed in business casual. Join @josiecox.bsky.social + me at MM LaFleur to talk about Jeannette Rankin's enduring vision of an expanded definition of We The People & pick up some Revolutionary garb while you're at it.

Don Lemon's arrest is the latest assault on Freedom of the Press by the current administration. But it the most dangerous, extreme, and illegal so far.

There is so much early aughts style going on at this cafe that I am not sure what to do. Raver pants. Full denim. Poorly fitting calf length faux silk skirts with fringe leather jacket. White sneakers with black socks. Where. Am. I.
