It’s NOT over!

Eliza does a phenomenal job explaining the upcoming process and the actions we can all take to pressure the 7 Dems + King to change their vote

Listen and then take action⤵️
Is the shutdown over? Not yet.
Tonight’s vote was only step 1 of 5.
There’s still another 60-vote hurdle, amendments, AND then the House.
Pressure matters right now—especially on Kaine, Rosen, Hassan, Shaheen.
Stay loud.

Senate Dems pissed away a +30 voter mandate from 11/25 elections.

The only response should have been Go Fuck Youself. Repeat daily

Schumer needs to step down as Dem leader. He cant inspire his caucus. Or be tough enough with them on critical votes

Jfc. The evil literally never ends. Republicans don’t want to feed the kids who are alive now!!! They want to force out more starving children??? (Not even mentioning the one two punch of forced birth but no affordable healthcare.)
Senate update: Republicans are now trying to sneak a backdoor national abortion ban into their government funding bill. Republicans will stop at nothing to control women's health care decisions.

Why does the media keep repeating the lie that the illegal killings in the Caribbean are in international waters?

They must know there's no such thing in the region. See link & map. Blue areas are international waters.

People are dying in their own waters.

Remember: If we allow ourselves to fall into fatalism, or wallow in disappointment, or become resigned to what is rather than what should be, we will lose the long game.

The greatest enemy of positive social change is cynicism about what can be changed.

Is there a term for absconding with a kid?
So immigration agents drove off in a citizen’s car with a toddler in the back.

**Then DHS refused to answer questions about it.**

it's time for journos to start asking Johnson meta questions

"Speaker, on 5 occasions last week you said 'I haven't seen it' when asked about news events w/big implications for public policy. Do you ever read the news, and do you agree it's problematic for the Speaker to be so woefully uninformed?"

Rep. Clay Higgins of Louisiana blames SNAP recipients for not stockpiling a month's worth of food.

This infuriates me. While breast cancer is much more rare among men, they DO get it. I have a friend who's a male breast cancer survivor. Making people starve/die bc political ideology is what fascists do. #BreastCancerAwareness
Citing a Trump executive order banning "gender ideology," the VA is withholding coverage and treatment for male veterans with breast cancer, an increasing condition among veterans exposed to toxic chemicals during service. 100 male veterans a year are diagnosed with breast cancer.

🧵This horrific story is being reported all over Latin America, but not the US.

Randall Gamboa, a Costa Rican, was deported from the US in such a critical health condition it required an ambulance flight.

He then died upon his return to Costa Rica after being detained for 8 months by DHS.

I think he may have got more, ah, excited than you're giving him credit for.
Here's a photo of my friend and colleague, Jorge Bautista, getting shot in the face with a flashbang grenade. The ICE Agent is so afraid of Jorge (who was posing no threat) that he has wet himself. Please share this photo. Everyone needs to know what cowards ICE agents are.
