AOC: I want everybody to understand that the cuts to your health care are what’s paying for this. You get screwed over to pay a bunch of thugs in the street that are shooting mothers in the face.

It's so real.

I am helping a church pull together a community meeting about preparing for ICE and everyone I'm reaching out to "yes-ands" me.

I am 40 and I have spent my entire adult life organizing, and I have literally never experienced this before. It's wild.

People are DONE.
i hope all the people resisting ICE on the ground know how fucking inspiring they are. minneapolis right now, and chicago and LA and charlotte and DC and portland before them, you’re setting the blueprint for the future battles sure to come. thank you.

Seeing as it’s the 5 year anniversary of Jan 6, & attempts to re-write what occurred continue unabated, I’m re-upping part 7 of my series about Roger Stone & his miscreants. It documents w/ screen shots & quotes much of what transpired. We cannot let them re-write history. @buckscountybeacon.com. 1/

Being happy about Venezuela is like being happy a kid is abducted & sent to Epstein’s island.

Are we at war with Venezuela?!?

I don't know. You don't know either.

It sure would be nice to have a legitimate Pentagon press corps right about now.

The folks at The Guardian are really getting climate coverage right (while so many other outlets are flailing).

A great final read about our warming world and its effects in the US on the last day of 2025:

for the longest time on twitter my bio was “the real racist” as a joke about this dynamic.
And that’s part of the problem a lot of people assume Black thinkers are simply acting out of revenge and hatred against white people rather than examining and exploring the dynamics within their communities and larger context.

I think a big part of the political problem in the US is that we never had accountability for our n@2!5 and we memory-holed them so that people don’t understand many supporters of the modern GOP are the heirs of these racist monsters. 1/2

(Hot Take TM) Providing mutual aid as part of campaign work is a good thing that candidates should do more.
🧵 Our mutual aid hub has been a HUGE draw for our immense volunteer base, many of whom have never wanted to be involved politics before now.

This model isn’t just about the immediate impacts: It’s about showing our values, building a community, and reaching voters — without selling our soul!
Turning campaigns into mutual aid hubs isn’t good for campaigns or mutual aid! Your campaign manager should be entirely too busy to schlep around 5600 tampons!

NEW — I wrote about Beker Rengifo, a Montana resident from Venezuela who was taken by ICE on Thursday after a routine traffic stop, and how local law enforcement is working with the feds to ensnare people with legal status.

The people have created an alert system - using horns and whistles - to protect communities during ICE raids— and it’s working ❤️‍🔥
When Customs and Border Protection and Commander Gregory Bovino move into town, so does Whistlemania.

Activists create and distribute thousands of 3D-printed whistles, and their piercing cries are used to signal that immigration agents are nearby.
