Child at the podium: “A woo woo woo.”

Mamdani: That’s how I felt when we came up with this plan. Together, we will expand the idea of what is possible in our city—and what sounds and noises we can make at a press conference.

Highlighting the speaker who stood in front of the Surprise mayor and told him to consider what the Mayor of Ohrdruf must’ve thought before he died by suicide: “He might have thought ‘how is this my fault I had no jurisdiction over this’ maybe he said ‘this site was not subject to local zoning.’”

“There’s no point to calling because my senators already agree with me”

“There’s no point to calling because my senators won’t listen”

These are both false information and you should correct and/or block anyone circulating them. Your calls are tallied and create support and/or real pressure.

I really need Democratic lawmakers to understand that we're fed up with them simply posting on social media "this has to stop" without calling for specific actions to make it stop.

We know this needs to stop. We elected you. Tell us what needs to be done to make it stop.

Every single person should call today, and call tomorrow. Call every office. Lose your fucking shit at them.
We are calling our senators right now and demanding that they vote no on the omnibus with DHS funding

We are explicitly mentioning ICE’s murder in cold blood of a man on the streets of Minneapolis this morning

I'm not sure Democrats in D.C. are aware that their base's rage against ICE has reached a level of blinding white-hot intensity.

They're worried about "looking weak" for voting "against law enforcement" when they should be worried a mob of housewives is going to come beat them to death if they do.

WHAT THE FUCK are you going to DO ABOUT IT? Shame on you fucking useless politicians wandering around like you can’t do anything while they execute people in the street. FUCKING GO THERE, CHUCK.
ICE out of Minnesota NOW.

I didn’t mean to watch the video. I knew what to expect, saw it anyway because now it’s everywhere. It’s everything we think. Don’t watch it if you can avoid it.

This is abhorrent. The 4th amendment is the law of the land, and you need a warrant to enter people’s homes.

The courts must step in immediately and ICE must leave our cities.

I cannot emphasize this enough. If you live in a city, ICE IS COMING TO YOU. Get to know your neighbors now. Start signal chats now. Figure out what you can do well and get to it. See what other cities have done and well and replicate it.
This is also where you have to get your seeds of community in the ground while the ground is soft. Don’t wait until the goons are at your neighborhood schools to figure out who’s going to walk your dog/mind your baby/get everybody fed.

Fuck every single one of these fucks: “The seven Democrats who voted in favor were: Henry Cuellar and Vicente Gonzalez, both of Texas; Jared Golden of Maine; Marie Gluesenkamp Perez of Washington; Don Davis of North Carolina; and Laura Gillen and Tom Suozzi, both of New York.”
A small band of moderate House Democrats teamed with Republicans to pass a bill to fund DHS, overcoming a revolt by most Democrats furious about ICE’s operations in Minneapolis and other U.S. cities.
House passes sprawling spending package as Democrats split over ICE funding
The House voted separately on DHS funding and another package of bills to avoid a partial shutdown and repeal a law that allows certain GOP senators to sue DOJ for $500,000.

Democratic leadership is failing at every level to resist a this shit. I’m so tired of every single one of them in leadership. I don’t fucking want them to work with the Nazis to make it slightly less bad. Kidnapping children as bait has to be the last fucking straw.

@mikeforbrooklyn.bsky.social yo- I want to know how you’re going to be different from representative Clarke. What will you do to obstruct a fascist administration? I don’t want bipartisanship- as long as they are kidnapping children and supporting a terror campaign- I want nothing but obstruction.
