On paper: We have 100 days until the 2026 Election Day for the midterms. In reality: We have 54 days until early voting begins in some states and 70 days to get registered in many states (October 5th is the first cut off for states like Texas). ⬇️
Mexico is demanding criminal investigations into the deaths of Mexican immigrants, including Lorenzo Salgado Araujo, as a result of ICE officers. We can also take action. Immigration enforcement is set by people we elect, and the midterms are in november. 🧵

Last week, we were at the the HS Dems conference conducting a workshop on a new playbook for building youth political power 💪 The students were amazing – so smart, motivating, and inspiring – with ton of ideas (hard to believe they’re only in high school!). 🧵
Europe relegates bad teams to a lower league. Congress works like that too, but only if we get registered to vote and show up at the polls 👀 This fall 435 US house reps, 33 US senators, and many state officials will be on the ballot. We decide who stays and who goes. ⬇️

A former Olympian, David Hearn, is facing a felony charge for touching the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool. The canoeist states that he was examining peeling sealant from recent renovations and let go when he was told. Now, he is being charged with felony property destruction.
✊ the most powerful thing you can do is exist on the voter roll. not marching, not posting, not doomscrolling about it. just being on the list. voter roll = voter registration list (list of registered voters, and the list your name needs to be on to be eligible to vote in the upcoming election)
happy world cup semi-finals to all who celebrate! ⚽️ that said, we implore you to wonder how a referee can be demoted for one bad call, when Supreme Court appointments are for life...🧵
As the country mourns yet another deadly ICE shooting, our hearts are with the family of Lorenzo Salgado Araujo, who should be alive and with them today. 💔 👇
