The government is in full shutdown and the Republicans are refusing to call the House back into session.

Want to know why?

Because we have secured the final vote on releasing the Epstein Files and they don’t want it out.

Call GOP and tell them to swear in @adelitaforcongress.bsky.social.

Five corporations control 90% of the US media market.

Airlines merged from 12 major carriers in 1980 to 4 today.

Four giants control 80% of meat processing.

A handful of companies control the pharmaceutical industry.

The evidence of corporate concentration is everywhere.

Illinois State Senator Karina Villa sprang into action to protect her community from ICE raids, alerting neighbors to their rights and chasing off masked agents. This is how you stand up to authoritarianism. We should all be inspired by Sen. Villa's courage.

When discussing how to handle the unhoused and mentally ill populations, Brian Kilmeade of Fox & Friends recommended to “just kill them” using “involuntary lethal injection.”

This is how the Trump regime and its propagandists can normalize and bring about the mass murder of vulnerable populations.

Republicans often claim "guns aren't the problem, it's mental illness."

Yes, mental health is a major problem in America — which is why we should fund programs to address it.

But all countries deal with mental illness.

Yet they don't suffer from the scourge of gun violence like the U.S.

Our health care system is close to collapse.

Not enough doctors, nurses or dentists.

Costs are skyrocketing.

Trump’s legislation will cause hospitals, nursing homes & community health centers to cut back services.

We need a simple, universal system: Medicare for All.

NEW: The SC Department of Public Safety, which includes Highway Patrol, has a pending 287(g) collaboration agreement with ICE. The agency has chosen the Task Force Model, the broadest and deepest type of agreement, which essentially turns police officers into ICE agents. www.ice.gov/identify-and...

Trump has entered into a new and wilder stage of authoritarian neofascism. No holds barred. Nothing out of bounds.

But tyrants cannot succeed where people refuse to submit to them.

And we must not submit.

Trump is firing immigration judges.

His regime is ending "temporary protected status" for thousands of people here legally.

ICE is arresting asylum seekers at their hearings.

The DOJ is threatening to strip immigrants of their citizenship.

Trump never actually supported "legal immigration."

Politicians hide themselves away.
They only started the war.
Why should they go out to fight?
They leave that role to the poor.
Time will tell on their power minds.
Making war just for fun,
Treating people just like pawns in chess,
Wait 'till their judgment day comes...

Medicare for all, paid leave, universal childcare.

Busting up big corporations and tackling Wall Street’s greed.

Getting big money out of politics.

Supporting unions and fighting for higher wages.

If Dems want to win back working people, this is the agenda they must support.

ICE just arrested Brad Lander, the NYC Comptroller and one of the leading candidates for Mayor, without grounds.

He was conducting routine immigration court work, escorting individuals from hearings.

He asked ICE for their warrant - well within his legal rights.

This is political intimidation.
Whoa! NYC mayoral candidate and current city Comptroller Brad Lander seemingly arrested at the NYC immigration court while attending to escort someone attending their hearing.
Lander just got detained by federal agents as he tried to escort a man out of the courtroom. Lander was taken in an elevator with masked agents, along with one member of his NYPD security detail.

One of my many fears is that the next Democratic president will spend too much time talking about "the importance of not dwelling on the past" instead of prosecuting every single one of the people responsible for this nightmare.
