New Jersey Dem Cast lead. Andy Kim won. The work to change our state & our party has only begun. Democracy is worth fighting for everywhere, every time.
Pinned
I’m not done.
I still believe in us.
I still believe in the promise & potential of this country.
I know democracy is always worth the work, the headache & the heartache.
I’m ready for the next round.
I will RESIST!
Who’s with me?

Hollman may have lost his bellicose bluster, but he's a liar. MN has always notified ICE when a convicted, undocumented person is released.
He ends saying "we are going to keep doing what we are doing."

Tom Homan on ICE in Minneapolis: "There were some issues here. I'm not going to sit here and say anybody did anything wrong."
We'd be better off if Republicans put as much effort into combating gun violence as they've put into justifying murdering US citizens.

🧊 had secretly bought up warehouses across the country to use as detention death camps. But local residents where the camps would be located have fought back by putting pressure on local officials w/great success. See the map to determine if your town is affected & call your local officials to 🛑 it.
MAP: All 23 industrial warehouses ICE wants to turn into detention ‘death camps’
In an apparent attempt to avoid public outcry and scrutiny, ICE has sought to secure these leases in private. So we made a searchable map of every proposed site.

During #BlackHistoryMonth we would do well to remember the wise words of Martin Luther King Jr-
“The time is always right to do what is right”.
This certainly applies to protecting our neighbors & children from assault, & kidnapping.
Honor King. Do what’s right. Step up. Get loud.

Beware ANYONE protesting "I only emailed Epstein, we never met."
They wrote, negotiated, discussed, WHATEVER, with a *known* pedophile.
It didn't matter that they "only emailed" with a man that trafficked women and served up little girls like hors d'oeuvres at an orgy.
