Sharing from @jvp.bsky.social: Americans are left begging for housing, healthcare, and food while the government always has money for war, ICE, weapons, and extracting oil from other countries. #democrats #republicans #democracynow

A US citizen has apparently been shot by ICE agents in Minneapolis. I’m gathering information, but the situation on the ground is volatile. ICE should leave now for everyone’s safety.

remember that month-long credulous news cycle about how Musk was "leaving politics," followed by a month-long credulous news cycle about how he was "building a third political party"?

Cuellar accepted a pardon from Trump, who clearly wanted the congressman personally indebted to him. That's not what a real opposition party does. Democrats on the Appropriations committee should vote against reinstating Cuellar.

“Just vote blue in 2026” won’t save us from American fascism. Both parties have been drifting to the right for years. Democrats and Republicans have aligned themselves with corporatocracy and oligarchy, respectively.

Pregnant women detained by ICE report horrifying treatment: shackling, solitary confinement, no prenatal vitamins, inadequate food. ICE's own directives and regulations require the agency to avoid detention of pregnant people in the first place. www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

Pregnant women describe miscarrying and bleeding out while in ICE custody, advocates say
The ACLU and other groups are pressing for ICE to identify and release all pregnant women in custody and to stop detaining anyone known to be pregnant, postpartum or nursing.
