Democratic Congresswoman Angie Craig’s PAC is attacking MN LG Peggy Flanagan with deepfake AI to mislead voters. This is disqualifying. I would expect this from MAGA but beyond the pale to see this from Democrats. Vote Peggy Flanagan for US Senate in MN

In the video from by on the ground independent journalists (ID’d in the video) full riot gear police knock down down the barrier This is what centrism accomplishes—complicity with fascism. Stop voting for centrists. Vote for actual fighters. We desperately need courage in the halls of power. 2/2

As Netanyahu breaks the "ceasefire" yet again & orders his military to take over 70% of Gaza, you should care for two reasons. 1: It’s wrong & our tax dollars are paying for this injustice. 2: Whatever you allow to happen there, Trump will do here.

Pete Hegseth thinks he’s Amin Abdullah. But Pete Hegseth is somebody who Jesus condemns in the Bible, who prays to be seen of people. And Amin Abdullah is a man the Bible praises. For what greater sacrifice is there than laying down your own life to save over 100 others? Let me explain.

I went to my city council to demand they pass an ordinance to protect due process & defend our community from ICE fascism. The council voted to ADVANCE the ordinance. The final vote is June 16. We will keep the pressure on. This is how we fight fascism. Start local, organize, and be consistent.

Al Hajj Malcom X would have turned 101 today. “They won’t even admit the knife is there.” This white supremacist regime pretends that racism is over, as they gut voting rights — this is exactly what they’re doing.

Today Al Hajj Malcolm X would have turned 101. When asked if we've "made progress," he responded with this. Watch below. We have so much work yet to do.

In response to MAGA Republicans gerrymandering Tennessee to remove all Black representation, @brotherjones.bsky.social burns the fascist Confederate flag. This is the courage we need to fight back. #CourageNow

When it comes to healthcare, the U.S. is spending double per capita of every developed country in the world and we have the lowest life expectancy of every developed country in the world. Watch my interview with Mussab Ali running for Congress in New Jersey's 8th District: youtu.be/0Evb9YxZkoc?...

The Florida House just passed this racist, gerrymandered map. A Democratic State Rep in Florida spoke up to stop this unconstitutional vote. Rep. Angie Nixon is running for U.S. Senate. She is the kind of fighter we need. Donate to her campaign: secure.actblue.com/donate/anapril

At the mere mention of a shooter in the building, watch how Stephen Miller, Kash Patel, and Erica Kirk react. These are the same people demanding our children endure hundreds of school shootings a year — they expect kids to be braver than they are. This is hypocrisy personified.

70 veterans and active duty military members were arrested at the Capitol yesterday protesting Trump's illegal war in Iran, including my friends Dylan Blaha & Demi Palecek. Corporate media is barely covering this, so we have to have their backs. This is what real courage and leadership looks like.

Israel’s parliament approved hanging as the default death penalty for Palestinians convicted of killing Israelis. Human rights groups, including B’Tselem, say Israelis kill Palestinians with impunity and face no accountability. This is apartheid—stop supporting American politicians who enable it.

Mohommad Nazeer put his life on the line to protect U.S. service members. Then he immigrated to the U.S. and did everything he was supposed to do. ICE fascists picked him up arbitrarily. The next day he is dead in an ICE facility. He leaves behind six young children. Share his story.
