Who is Aaron D. Ford? A former math teacher. Nevada’s first Black attorney general. The man who won $1.7 billion from Navient for student borrowers. On Nov 3 he takes on Trump-endorsed Gov Joe Lombardo in a race experts call a coin flip. Now is the time to get involved. @aarondfordnv.bsky.social

At a time when many Oklahomans are struggling to afford necessities & low wage & disabled Oklahomans already lost SNAP & SoonerCare benefits, the “raising the minimum wage will cause inflation” propaganda worked.

There are concentration camps on US soil. Babies, toddlers, little kids & people who in no ways are “the worst of the worst” are imprisoned in inhumane conditions. But you’re stuck in the useless terms of division- “centrist”, “leftist”, “progressive”, “corporatist”. It’s as if you’re oblivious.

youtube.com/watch?v=v27v... Katie Phang won a court order directing acting Attorney General Todd Blanche and the DOJ to either comply with the Epstein Files transparency Act or "show cause" as to why they are not doing so. DOJ just filed a reply to the judge's order. And it is . . . absurd.

Wal-Mart calls the cops on a black woman who they think stole something. In the end nothing was stolen, but the cops riddle the car with bullets as she tries to leave the parking lot. Murdering a baby. Wal-Mart is responsible. The police are responsible and justice must be served.

IS THIS A THREAT? Mullin refuses to rule out ICE agents at the polls. Don’t let fear keep you away from participating in democracy. ✅ Vote early 
✅ Vote by mail if available 
✅ Know your rights before Election Day 
✅ Document & report any intimidation 
✅ Bear witness— if safe, record & post it
