THE Congresswoman Shirley Anita Chisholm deserves a tribute worthy of her incomparable character and achievements.
I believe a permanent statue in the same halls of the Capitol that she forever changed is a recognition befitting her special legacy.

In MN there are many families currently needing food assistance due to the ice occupation making it too dangerous for them to go to school, work,or leave their homes to get food.
People facing hunger is another aspect of the occupation that is hurting people.
Below are links to some MN food banks.

THEY DID IT. EVERY SENATE DEMOCRAT just voted on an amendment to DEFUND ICE (rescind the BBB slush fund that keeps ICE open during a shutdown.) This amendment failed, but it shows broad support! KEEP CALLING and make it a demand to vote for the DHS funding bill!!
👀 Every Senate Democrat + Collins and Murkowski just voted for the Bernie Sanders amendment to repeal the $75 billion in additional ICE funding under Trump’s “big beautiful bill.” The measure failed 49-51.

The media has always been tougher on right-wing Democrats like Biden just because of party affiliation. The media protects every single Republican while demonizing liberals who are just as harmful as Republicans. We can't get anything meaningful as a working class.

Rep Tom Tiffany (WI-07) has pulled a Mike Johnson and says he hasn't watched the video of Alex Pretti being murdered by ICE in MN. Tiffany is running for WI governor. If he's not lying, then he's ignorant of current affairs & bad for WI.

No. We don’t need to “modify ICE training.” We need to close DHS. Dismantle it. It’s an outdated expensive bureaucracy that’s been usurped by violent white supremacists. Shut it down.

Senate Democrats absolutely have to shut the govt down to stop this ICE insanity in the Twin Cities. This is not sustainable & cannot be normalized. Any Democratic vote to provide money to the thugs who are brutalizing this community is a grave betrayal to the people here. Accountability can't wait.
