Yesterday we began to take back our power
Victories in Virginia, New Jersey, California and the NYC Mayoral election give us hope
But we MUST stay engaged
Too many lives are at stake
While ICE still roams the streets every day, terrorizing people
We can never relent

Easily several hundred people have packed into this plaza in Chicago's North Center tonight in response to ICE abducting a daycare worker early this morning.
This is a neighborhood that has largely been spared until now from the "Midway Blitz" terror campaign. But everyone knows someone affected.

Senator Alex Padilla is forcibly removed from Homeland Secretary Kristi Noem's press conference in LA.
"Hands off!," Padilla can be heard yelling.
Never seen a US senator handled this way.

Trump's approval rating collapsed and he chickened out. And made sure his fellow crooks made money, no doubt.
What's the next fake emergency? And do we get to play this game again in 90 days?

As of Friday, there have been 46 cases in which federal judges have blocked Trump policies.
The rulings in those cases have come from 39 different judges appointed by 5 different presidents (of both parties) to 11 different district courts across 7 different circuits.
Maybe it's not the judges?

Our immigration policies should not be wielded as union busting, political cudgels. Or as ways to suppress freedom of speech or assembly.

The UK has a shadow cabinet - political positions within the party that isn’t in power - and so should we. Plus, we need weekly press briefings led by @petebuttigieg.bsky.social on the state of the union. Business-as-usual time is over.
We need Pete Buttigieg as a clear messenger, more than ever.

He’s been co-POTUS for 4 weeks. Not even a month.
And they’re already calling for the likely future leader of the Democratic Party—a nonwhite woman—to be put in a cage. Twitter has many tweets like the one below.
Everyone needs to understand: America is on very limited time now.
Fascism is here.
