A South Side Chicago-born PhD economist transplanted to Silicon Valley & transformed into a political activist.
“They’ve decided the rules of decency no longer apply to them.”
Trump’s “quiet, piggy” (& other denigratons) aren’t a glitch: Misogyny is the autocrat’s performative signal to supporters. Cruelty flexes power.
We don’t normalize it.
We name it.
We fight it. @demcast.com #NoKings #SaveOurDemocracy

Women refusing to “shut up” dismantle the authoritarian playbook. Misogyny is a regime feature; women organizing in their communities ensure democracy survives. From DC to TN, we’re feeding neighbors, flipping districts & saying, “Hell no!” to dictatorship.

Charlotte Stands Up! This was Siembra NC’s resistance training Monday night. As Jacob Soboroff noted, when federal agents attacked, the community came out loudly🔥🔥🔥 to protect their neighbors. #StopICE #ICEOutOfOurCities

HS students at Phillip O. Berry Academy walked out in protest, carrying signs: “No one is illegal on stolen land” & “I’ll take my horchata warm cause ICE sucks.” While masked ICE/CBP stormed Charlotte & arrested 200, these kids showed courage to protect the community.

Why your groceries cost 8% more 🛒📈 It’s not just #Trumptariffs. Trump’s war on workers is gutting our economy:
• 155k farm workers gone
• Fresh veggies up 8%
• Restaurants up 5.3%
• 1.2M workers left the labor force
• Housing permits crashing
Your receipts don’t lie, even if he does. #Trumpflation

People need to understand the negative impact Speaker Mike Johnson’s proposed budget will have on the daily lives of over 70 million Americans.

So what are they using this Medicaid cut money for? To give tax cuts to billionaires. 🤯

Now is a good time for a refresher as 1A is under sustained attack by F47.

Grad student & valid visa holder Rumeysa Ozturk wrote an op-ed for the Tufts student newspaper.

Six masked ICE agents subsequently snatched her off a street & detained her à la Russia, Turkey or Hungary.

This is fascism.
