AOC: "Extreme level of wealth inequality leads to social instability and drives authoritarianism, right-wing populism, and really dangerous domestic internal politics. That is a direct outcome of the failure of democracies over decades to deliver."

The median ticket price for Sunday’s Super Bowl is $7,497.

I don’t even want to know what a beer costs.

But even if you want to go to a regular-season sporting event, tickets and concession prices will cost you a small fortune.

Here’s one thing we can do about it.

Mamdani is the politics we need right now. I hope and pray his posture becomes the way forward and out of facism.
Mamdani: "I speak of Renee Good, whose final words to the man who murdered her were, 'I'm not mad at you.' I speak of Alex Pretti who died as he lived, caring for the stranger. ICE shot him bc he did something they could never fathom ... let us offer a new path: one of defiance through compassion."

We had eradicated this disease.

And now because of targeted disinformation, children, immunocompromised people, elderly folks, and so many others become victims in this proxy war and we have a new avoidable pandemic.

After being held in two of them as a boy, I fought for decades urging America to never again build concentration camps and put human beings in them. It breaks my heart to watch this happen twice now in my own lifetime.

Minneapolis has seen a stunning 1,646% spike in calls from families who can't pay rent because they're afraid to leave their homes to work.

This is state violence manufacturing housing precarity in real time.

People should not be facing eviction when their city is under occupation.

Voting NO on the DHS funding bill is the bare minimum.

Backing Kristi Noem’s impeachment is the bare minimum.

Holding law-breaking ICE agents legally accountable is the bare minimum.

ICE is beyond reform. Abolish it.

All regime mouthpieces who have lied about the murder of VA nurse Alex Pretti must resign immediately. All DHS officials and agents involved must be prosecuted.

"What can Democrats actually do?"

- Vote against funding for ICE and DHS

- State that any ICE officers who commit crimes under Trump will be prosecuted to the full extent of the law

- Encourage cities and states to refuse to cooperate with ICE

- Explain ICE is part of Trump's tyranny

Call your reps. Let them know that if they vote for ICE funding, you will not vote for them ever again.

Representatives need to feel the heat. NO on ICE funding. No excuses.
So the House is going to vote TOMORROW on the DHS funding bill that includes funding for ICE.

There's a real chance we can get Dems to vote NO on any bill with ICE funding to sink it.

Once it goes to the Senate we likely lose this chance.

24 hours. Go.

Oops: Eric Trump and other right-wingers accidentally gush over the fact that fentanyl deaths in the U.S. plummeted under Biden’s presidency after spiking during Trump’s first term—because they don’t know how to read a chart.

ICE keeps saying the people protesting it are being paid without any evidence, but we have receipts showing that the people *defending* ICE are absolutely being paid.

And yet we only hear lies about the former on cable news.
relevant to the debate over whether we should keep funding DHS without reforms and accountability for how out of control their spending is

Abolish ICE completely, top to bottom.

Let nothing of that organization remain.

And hold everyone involved accountable for their evil.

There’s a big story everyone is missing—but this article hits on it.

It’s the way of the Empire, and not the way of Jesus.

To support ICE is to deny Jesus and work against His Kingsom.
