I cannot convey enough how grateful I am to the millions of you all supporting us with your time, resources, and energy.

Your support has allowed us to rally people together at record scale to organize their communities.

All with an average donation of $21.

THANK YOU & Pa’lante 🙏🏽♥️
News: AOC had her strongest ever quarter, raising over $9.5m from 266k individual donors for an average of just $21.

AOC doesn’t take a dollar from lobbyists or corporate PACS. Our top donor professions are teachers and nurses. 64% were first time contributors.

I want to tell you why the case of Kilmar Abrego Garcia should matter to you.

The one power you cannot give the executive is the ability to imprison or expel anyone regardless of their legal rights. That is our key check against autocracy. And we are watching it disappear.

Le Monde reporting that a French scientist traveling to Houston to attend a conference was denied entry to US after a search of his phone & computer revealed messages critical of Trump's science cuts, "which [says CPB] conveyed hatred of Trump & could be qualified as terrorism".

Musk’s staffers have entered an independent government agency by force. Employees from DOGE are now inside the Washington offices of the United States Institute of Peace. This comes just days after agency representatives were unable to gain access to the building on Friday being blocked by lawyers.

If this is really the Senate D plan, it's a joke. Come on, @schumer.senate.gov, this is too clever by half.

The test is this: If you don't use your power to stop the Trump-Musk reign of lawbreaking and destruction, and instead facilitate it, you've failed. This plan could end up doing the latter.

i think this is basically what has happened a big chunk of the american pundit class
One of my best friends is from a sleepy, wealthy small town in the south-west of Germany. He said, so many of my parents’ neighbours are rich and bored, with little to complain about, and they’ve radicalised themselves at dinner parties and online. In their aimlessness, they’ve bonded over hate.
This isn’t some rant saying “Germany has learned nothing from its past” - the reality is more subtle than that. Middle-class Germans live and travel with an incredible amount of ease and comfort, and they just got…sleepy. Many of them dismissed the far-right’s rage as just another set of complaints.

Also if you feel strongly about Eric Adams, you should call your city councilmember to express that and ask for their position.

You’d be surprised. Hochul’s stance is highly disappointing but it doesn’t come from nowhere. Press all your electeds. City elections are in 5 months. Ask candidates too.

The takeover of Twitter was a preview of what we're all living with now and a stark example of why you can't let any one person have too much money: they go insane and make themselves everybody's problem

Any news outlet reporting Mexico conceded anything to Trump to get him to delay tariffs has not done its homework.
Trump boasts he got Mexico to commit to stationing 10K troops at our border. Apparently he didn't realize Mexico already has 15K troops deployed there

I'm sorry, but "they took over the whole federal payments system, fired the career staff, and won't let anybody see what they're doing" is not a situation in which you wait for more information. It's a situation in which you assume the worst. There's no explanation for it other than rampant crimes.

So many evil politicians, billionaires and oligarchs are in their 70’s and 80’s.

You just gotta stay alive for another decade so you can watch them all pass away.

Don’t let anyone tell you this guy is popular or that the country is trending his way. Just isn’t true. Never was.
This chart shows how much of an outlier Trump is historically. Even Biden, who had the next highest disapproval when he took office, still had a plus-20 differential. news.gallup.com/poll/655955/...

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent.

Opportunities are everywhere.

Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

This weird dithering over calling Musk a Nazi and an enabler of global fascism is exactly it. If you’re part of an institution who is scared to call him that then you’re in the wrong job. It’s like calling the fire service but they won’t even answer the phone because the flames look too scary.
A lot of people only want to identify Nazis after they've done the mass murdering bit. The thing is, you need to identify them and deal with them earlier to stop that.

Quiet insurrection! Ask for office supplies, new chairs and printers every time you see a boss. Keep the break room crowded. Cook smelly foods. Slow down the workflow. Socialize with coworkers. Ask your bosses for new office chairs and cubicles. Leave a few union pamphlets laying around.
