This season isn’t easy for many of us and that deserves compassion, not silence.

May you feel seen, held, and less alone. We see you! You matter! You are not alone!

Sending you peace & calm over the holiday season 🎄🫂🎄

ICE deported a U.S. citizen who was born in Maryland and whose lawyer provided a birth certificate for as well as hospital records of her birth, against a judge’s orders forbidding her deportation.

But happy Christmas Eve.

UPDATE: Another Chicago-area church has put up an immigration-themed Nativity scene.

A church member at Urban Village Church sent this one along, where Mary, Joseph and Jesus are gone and replaced with a sign that reads: “Due to ICE activity in our community, the Holy Family is in hiding.”

The immediate and overwhelming community response that thwarted an ICE raid yesterday will be commonplace in NYC.

At HandsOffNYC.com we’re ensuring it by preparing New Yorkers borough by borough—block by block—on how to nonviolently respond to the unwarranted and unlawful terror ICE imposes on us.

Reporter: Governor Walz called for the release of your MRI results

Trump: They were perfect like my phone call where I got impeached.

Reporter: Can you tell us what they were looking at?

Trump: I have no idea. It was just an MRI. It wasn’t the brain because I took a cognitive test and aced it.

If Democrats want to regain working people, they must disavow Big Money.

They must hammer economic populism — and have a laser focus on the cost of living crisis in America.

There’s no way the party can speak for or represent the working class in America if it's beholden to corporate interests.

After yesterday’s surrender, we’re launching the largest Democratic primary program that we’ve ever run.

We will not back any Senate primary candidate unless they call for Schumer to step down as Minority Leader.

If you’re as pissed as we are, join this campaign to rebuild the Democratic Party. 👇
Democratic leaders have failed us again. It's time to get new leaders.
