Reposted by AmandaElizabeth Cronise McLaughlin @ecmclaughlin.bsky.social · 28/05/2026I cannot say this loudly enough: we need everyone to know what is happening at Delaney Hall. 300 detainees inside are on Day 7 of a hunger and labor strike as of today. ICE is beating, gassing, tasing and assaulting protestors outside every night, and it is getting worse. 131775977
Amanda @amininger.bsky.social · 27/05/2026Remember Cardboard Cory? Maybe it's time to break out the same tactics for Hick. 000
Amanda @amininger.bsky.social · 21/05/2026Invaluable, detailed election explainer here. Always amazing to me how often important, accurate info about how our country works just never makes it to the public, the very people who deserve to know and benefit from it. I'm grateful Elizabeth and David stepped forward to do this. Share widely. 02418

Imagine using $1.7 billion to address the wage gap and the lack of resources for survivors of violence and abuse. We should never look at these ideas as too radical or impossible again. 101136275

They are feeding food insecure people, seniors, and whole communities of vulnerable folks and they’re a model of what great community can do. blackwaterrising.org/our-gardens/blackwaterrising.orgOur Gardens - Blackwater RisingRooted in Resilience 56319

Amanda @amininger.bsky.social · 15/01/2026@colorado.gov, while you're at it, Gov. Polis, no clemency for Tina Peters. You know very well what that would mean. We desperately need leaders who will join everyday people in fighting for what's right. No dithering or caving. Buck up. You can do it. 140

Amanda @amininger.bsky.social · 29/10/2025Thanks for your attention to this, Governor, but I hope you're doing way more behind the scenes to find out what's going on, stop unlawful actions, and help Fernando and his children than this "deeply concerned" BlueSky post suggests. 150

CDHS was informed last week that pantries can't do more without more funds to buy more food. Food pantries are uniting to tell @coloradogovernor.bsky.social Polis to release emergency funds to food pantries. 262
Amanda @amininger.bsky.social · 18/09/2025The whole thing is wrongly framed. It's not the effin' job of the prez to bring anything to heel - especially the media. This is just ongoing headline laziness that, at this point, is starting to feel deliberate. 030
