Great @cprnews.bsky.social piece examining where GOP Gov candidate Victor Marx is spending his huge fundraising haul. Makes a lot of sense if you subscribe to the idea that Marx is paying out friends/family and building an email list, rather than trying to win. www.cpr.org/2026/10/08/v...
cpr.org
Victor Marx’s spending is as unusual as the rest of his campaign
The Republican candidate for Colorado governor has focused his cash on raising more cash, while minimizing traditional spending.

ICE Flight Monitor @iceflightmonitor.bsky.social · 07/10/2026
Amidst continued abuses by ICE, @iceflightmonitor.bsky.social shines a light on an opaque, cruel system of removal flights occurring without due process, often to places where people are at serious risk. People should never be sent to places where they face grave harm.

New Yorkers: Do you have a form of immigration relief called withholding of removal? Have you received an ICE letter summoning you to 26 Federal Plaza? Here’s what  you can do:

1. Call our Immigration Legal Support Hotline at 1-800-354-0365, or call 311 and say "Immigration Legal" for free, confidential help in your native language.

2. Fill out our intake form to get help from the Rapid Response Legal Collaborative: nyc.gov/RRLC

3. Make a plan. Make sure you have an emergency contact and that someone you trust has your A-number. Talk to a lawyer before making any decisions.

If groceries, health insurance, and utilities feel more expensive, that’s because they are! The GOP’s federal budget cuts to SNAP/ACA tax credits mean 5k residents could lose access to grocery assistance and 10K residents could lose access to their health insurance in Aurora and Cherry Creek.
