You don't have to defend vandalism to believe that no one deserves to be killed in the street. Distorting the facts of that day to fit a 'brandishing' narrative is a reach for political gain. Let’s stop using a human life to justify ignoring the rights of Americans.

Alex Pretti spent his life saving veterans in the ICU, only to be executed in the street by federal agents while trying to help a neighbor. The DHS 'narrative' is a flat-out lie contradicted by every bystander video. We aren't just mourning; we are demanding justice for this state-sponsored murder.

Weather comparison:MAGA supporters use snowblowers for their own paths, indifferent to the pile they blow onto the neighbors. Liberals see a community problem, out with shovels for the whole block—they’d rather everyone be exhausted together than one person be comfortable alone.

Observers are the domestic terrorists not these Nazi thugs
ICE agent asked why he's taking pictures of a legal observer's car, replies: "Cuz we have a nice little database and now you're considered a domestic terrorist. So have fun with that."

Studies show that giving people the choice to vote by mail or absentee can boost turnout, especially for those who might struggle to get to the polls in person, such as olderer adults, caregivers, & people with mobility challenges #rockthevote #votingmatters #Elections2026

Many voters w/ disabilities rely on mail-in ballots because in-person voting can be physically challenging, even with accessibility improvements. Studies have shown that voters w/disabilities R more likely 2 use mail voting, & that greater access is correlated w/ higher participation in this group.

There are so many reasons why we should not eliminate mail-in voting. Trump wants to sign an EO to ban this type of voting 1) Mail-in ballots let people cast their vote early without having to take time off work, arrange childcare, or wait in long lines on a single Election Day.

Ensuring election integrity means clear rules we can trust. HB 968 makes sure machine-readable ballots are always counted by certified scanners. No ambiguity, no inconsistent hand counts. #VAleg #ElectionIntegrity #readthebill

The US was founded on the idea that people should be free to practice their faith without fear. Banning a religion is about as UN-American as it gets #islamaphobia #freedomofreligion #erasehate

Two main factors are driving the increase in re-segregated schools,the end of most court oversight that required school districts to create integrated schools, and policies that favor school choice and parental preference.

School segregation is increasing. The end of court oversight and charter growth are driving the changes.
A new analysis takes stock of school segregation on the 70th anniversary of Brown v. Board of Education. Segregation is growing fastest in the large districts that serve many students of color.

Just a quick reminder to everyone who wants "all Muslims to be deported": The Constitution protects freedom of religion, not freedom from people you don’t like. That principle applies to everyone
