As DC was taken over by Trump’s secret police, where were congressional Democrats? They weren’t in DC and some weren’t even in the US. Instead of fighting back against the authoritarian takeover here at home, 22 House “Democrats” were being spoon-fed lies about Gaza on a trip paid for by AIPAC.

Swalwell: Democratic attorneys general in these states have their own law enforcement abilities. And I would recommend, and I have recommended to them use those capabilities. If these agents are committing assault or battery, you can charge them with assault and battery.

It's time to shut everything down. Everything. No tourism, no concerts, no football or baseball games, no events, nothing. A farm workers strike is coming, and others need to strike with them. The protests aren't working-time to move on to more effective tactics. No business as usual in Nazi Germany

Enough! This is exactly why ICE should be required to identify themselves. If ICE looks like criminals and thugs, they should be regarded as such. 🚨 Yesterday, an L.A. man was arrested for impersonating a federal agent. Loaded gun, fake documents, cop gear and even blinking & blue on his car

I’m choked up seeing this—it’s shameful. Iranian refugees got snatched by “immigration agents” dressed like bounty hunters in West LA’s Sawtelle neighborhood. We’re really about to send them back to a country we just bombed? A regime known for jailing, torturing, and killing its own people?

Folks can argue about the relevancy of the “Democratic socialist” label all day. But if that’s what you’re hung up on, you’re missing the larger point. People aren’t chasing labels. They’re chasing change. Real, structural, unapologetic change. 🧵

Zohran’s results so far just show how tired Americans are of the status quo, how we need creative, people-first campaigning and governance, and why positive, progressive politics are the future. Hate to get ahead of myself before results are called but I’m so freakin happy right now.

"Roberts wrote the majority opinion in Skrmetti, a low quality mix of medical misinformation and legal conclusions that are equal parts tortured and dishonest. This isn't new, however. These are the usual rhetorical tricks of the Roberts Court."

The Roberts Court exists to give legal cover to bigots
The majority decision in US v. Skrmetti is the latest example.

Something the Mamdani win demonstrates is the extent to which the reigning cadre of ancient, establishment, centrist Dems think it’s more important to be on good terms with their GOP colleagues than it is to represent their own voters, and how thoroughly sick of this literally everyone is.

It’s curious that the people that insisted SCOTUS would never overturn Roe v Wade and abortion rights advocates claiming otherwise were alarmists, are now the same people insisting that LGBTIQ activists’ legal strategies have been too “aggressive” in advocating for the rights of transgender people.

The ICE "agents" aren't agents. They're bounty hunters who've been deputized. That's why they don't wear uniforms and or provide ID. They get paid $1k-$2k per person. This is state-sanctioned. human trafficking and kidnapping.

"When you combine the probability of all three—the 88 counties flipping red (with none flipping blue) and the sweep of all seven swing states, each one landing just under the threshold for an automatic recount—you’re no longer talking about a statistical outlier. You’re talking a Space Godfather."
