“The day will come when all these skirmishes and Battles, these moments of defiance will have flooded the banks of the Empire’s authority, and then there will be one too many. One single thing will break the siege. Remember this: TRY.” May the 4th be with you.

Was glad to join my friends at UFD to discuss the gutting of the Voting Rights Act and our movement’s current response. Southern states are going full confederacy right now, but we have the power to defeat them! @blackvotersmatterfund.org

The petty, wannabe dictator is trying to become a king large act the expense of Black communities, particularly regarding the attack on voting rights and mid decade redistricting. So when we say #NoKings, we must explicitly include these issues.

We need more people talking about this case and sounding the alarm about the potential killing of the voting rights act.

A common tactic used to dilute Black voting power is finding an extra candidate to enter a two way race to split the Black vote. #RankedChoiceVoting actually provides a solution to such intentional vote splitting. @blackvotersmatterfund.org @fairvote.bsky.social @rankthevoteusa.bsky.social

Talked election reforms during #CBCweek; and shared space w/ some amazing panelists. In the spirit of Lani Guinier, one of the reforms we discussed is proportional representation. But as I mention below, our communities need to see examples of how these reforms work. @blackvotersmatterfund.org

The National Guard won’t make Memphis safer, they’ll just ramp up violence and target Black and immigrant communities. Real safety means investing in people, not punishment. Memphis is safer when we support youth, mental health & community programs. #FreeThe901 #Free901 @blackvotersmatterfund.org

Trump just pardoned crypto firm BitMex for violating money laundering laws — making him potentially the first president in American history to pardon a corporation. It's truly a new Golden Age for corporate crime.

This is hilarious. Elon’s $1M “giveaway” went to Republicans already backing Brad Schimel. 💰 Nicholas Jacobs – GOP operative, Wisconsin College Republicans 💰 Ekaterina Diestler – Corporate ties to Republican interests Musk lit millions on fire trying to buy an election—got nothing in return.

Bunch shows how it is done. The way he points out what the EO *legally* does (directs the VP, acting as just one of many regents) vs what it claims to do (“change the Smithsonian!”—something POTUS can’t do) is fantastic. We need more of this, less ppl taking EOs as law.

WIsconsin native Judge Susan Crawford will bring the fighting spirit of reform to the WI Supreme Court. WI was a laboratory for right wing gerrymandering under Scott Walker and Republicans, & her Musk backed opponent, former WI AG Brad Schimel, would continue that. Vote Crawford 4/1/25 for reform!

It is utterly disgraceful that, more than 24 hours after hearing of 4 dead U.S. soldiers in Lithuania, trump still has made NO public statement about it. We know how he feels about his painting in Colorado, but not about 4 U.S. soldiers who made the ultimate sacrifice.

I said this in Selma this past Sunday after the bridge crossing commemoration. We must match the force of the opposition with like force. Little did I know that this week #schumer and 9 other Dems would demonstrate how much they’re unwilling and unable to do so. They must be replaced.

Chuck Schumer to the New York Times on supporting the CR: “My internal gyroscope tells me I’m right.” It’s pointing into the arms of Donald Trump, who’s praising you. It’s broken, bro. Retire.

If Chuck Schumer votes for cloture tomorrow, it’s proof that he’s weak and is a clear sign that we need new Democratic leadership. Polling shows that only 22% of independents would blame Democrats for a shutdown, while 56% would blame the GOP or Trump. Americans want Democrats to FIGHT, not CAVE!!!

Republicans cut Democrats entirely out of their process for the CR, didn't want any of our input, and would have been blamed by a majority of the American public for a government shutdown. There was no reason to cave to them. Chuck Schumer has to go.

When we go to Selma every year, we don’t just go to reflect. We go to organize and to serve the local community. Proud of our warrant clinic program which helped over 400 Selma residents to clear fines/fees, restore their licenses, and get their lives back.
