Well, I had an interesting Sunday night, how 'bout you?
🧵
NY-17 Rep. Mike Lawler had a local social worker physically dragged out of his town hall Sunday night.
Emily Feiner was singled out by private security, lifted out of her seat, as the crowd chanted “let her stay” and “shame, shame.”
She’s a constituent.
Not a threat.
Fascism again.

Coming together to weather the regime of chaos, we build upon Maine’s rich history of neighborliness, caring for one another through sharing skills, talents, and resources.
In order to achieve these goals, we will employ a wide range of strategies for civic engagement and non-violent direct action.

Just like Bezos and Musk wished, Trump neutered the National Labor Relations Board.
Now, union-busting corporations can exploit their employees with impunity.
Last I checked, that's not standing with workers the way Trump promised.

RFK Jr. is a danger to public health. Every Republican senator who votes yes will own the consequences.
When RFK Jr. follows anti-vax conspiracies instead of science, when he greenlights Trump's anti-abortion agenda, when he cuts healthcare for seniors — remember who voted yes.

Now, Elon Musk wants to shut down USAID, the agency responsible for monitoring outbreaks in dozens of foreign countries.
With egg prices increasing grocery bills, why halt efforts to prevent a U.S. bird flu crisis?
