Ghislaine Maxwell was Epstein's fixer. That’s exactly what #pambondi is - exposing victim’s names while keeping powerful men hidden. We already know #Trump is in those files thousands of times. #Bondi isn’t an attorney general she is #Trump’s fixer. It’s a cover up. Period. #releasetheepsteinfiles

Power grabs don’t always look dramatic.

The SAVE Act 2.0 is MAGA/Trump’s way of holding onto power by making it more difficult for you to vote.

Call your members of Congress and say NO TO THE SAVE ACT 2.0

Every issue you care about—from union rights to abortion access—requires political power. The SAVE Act 2.0 is a scheme to strip your power, especially women, young people, and voters of color. If you can't vote, you can't fight back.

Heads up! Info on DHS proposed detention camps. Communities are stepping up to say NO! @maddow.bsky.social also did a piece on this on 2/2. #ICEOUT #takebackourdemocracy #takebackourcommunities
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.

This is what we can do when We the People all stand up and speak out. Thanks to all who made this happen because it speaks volumes about who we are as a country. We cannot let MAGA Trump represent who We are. we just have to keep fighting. #iceout #WethePeople #takebackourdemocracy
Yesterday, five-year-old Liam and his dad Adrian were released from Dilley detention center. I picked them up last night and escorted them back to Minnesota this morning.

Liam is now home. With his hat and his backpack.

They Wanted Silence. We Refused.
Take heart. In a week designed to exhaust us they failed to make us disappear.

From cities to towns to rural communities—Americans are standing up & shouting out. The PEOPLE are taking back their power. Democrats and Republicans - do not use our tax dollars for Trump’s fascist thugs. NO ON DHS FUNDING! #IceoffOurStreets

Thank you @atrupar.com
There is just so much hitting us at one time. It’s on purpose. But - THIS IS IMPORTANT. If we want to maintain our free elections and democracy- PAY ATTENTION! Understand what is happening. #dictatorship #2026elections
Ossoff: "This is a seismic event. This should have people across the country absolutely shook. This is a huge deal. This is an FBI raid on the Fulton County Elections office ... This is a shot across the bow at the midterm elections. He tried to steal power when he lost it in 2020."

Trump’s ICE has no rules to abide but one - don’t worry about the law, US or otherwise. Of course they feel like they can barge into another country’s consulate. PLEASE call your Senator - Democrat or Republican- and NO MORE MONEY TO ICE! #ICEOUT
An ICE agent attempted to enter the Ecuadorian Consulate in Minneapolis, threatening the staff member who prevented him from entering.

Hello? ICE is so out of control that its agents think they can break international law.

Congress needs to rein them in yesterday.

US citizens, exercising their constitutional rights, shot dead by Trump’s hand-picked gestapo. Tell Senators of both parties - this isn’t border enforcement - NO to our tax dollars going to Trump’s ICE. #NoMoneyForMurderers #ICEOUT

People are asking WHAT CAN I DO! YOU have the power. YOU chose who to hand that power to, then YOU hold accountable those who have been given that power. Tell your members of Congress - Dems, Republicans or MAGA - NO to funding ICE uncontrolled violence. #ICEOUT
We, the People, Refuse to Fund Violence
No more blank checks for ICE. The Senate votes Tuesday.

A doctor who witnessed the shooting submits a sworn declaration in federal litigation to halt ICE surge in MN:

"I did not see him attack the agents or brandish a weapon of any kind."

and

"The victim had at least three bullet wounds in his back."

You are wondering where the youth are?
#wethepeople #standup #shoutout
In -15° weather, Cleveland students didn’t look away. They left class to stand against ICE terror and defend human dignity. This isn’t performative. It’s principled. It’s leadership. And it’s a reminder that courage often comes from the young adults we underestimate.
We, the people have the power.

IMPORTANT INFO! As the dictator readies military & threatens to send them to MN, know the MN National Guard is on standby for MN residents. LEARN TO TELL THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN MN NATIONAL GUARD & US MILITARY. Be safe ans peacefully raise your voices. Thank you, MN. #Trump #nationalguard # military
Minnesotans: The MN National Guard is on standby and distinguishable by high-visibility reflective vests. This is how Guard members are identified vs federal agents, who do not wear these vests. Knowing the difference matters for public safety.
Please share.
