Honored to be speaking at this event to represent the leftist Italian American community we’re building here in NYC through Italians for Zohran AND to talk about the importance of organizing your workplace to protect coworkers against ICE and build long term union power toward a general strike ✊

MAJOR: Twin Cities Tenants joins five labor unions, together repping 25,900 members, to launch a rent strike drive, vowing to withhold rent March 1 if @governorwalz.mn.gov fails to deliver an eviction moratorium and rent relief. If launched, this would be the largest US rent strike in 100+ years.

today in NYT, an interview where the writers declared we are past the “brutal Condé Nast of yesteryear.” Of course, no acknowledgment of the illegal firings or targeted layoffs beyond an aside about Teen Vogue being “folded into” Vogue’s website

Q: What do Tim Riggins, Archie Andrews, and Paige Michalchuk have in common? A: They are all teen drama characters who had brushes with the criminal punishment system — and they are the stars of #LeftistTeenDrama’s three abolition focused episodes!

Alex Pretti was a colleague at the VA. We hired him to recruit for our trial. He became an ICU nurse- I lover working with him. He was a good kind person who lived to help and these fuckers executed him. White. Hot. Rage.

Nuremberg trials for ICE is the moderate position

have to destroy ice, have to remove anyone who stands in the way of that and never let them speak or wield authority ever again

Early this week I apologized in a chat as the only Minnesotan for spamming (ha ha, reference) with our latest news seemingly every 45 minutes, and it was deeply validating to be told straight up "No, please keep us updated. We know the news isn't telling the full story. We need to know the truth."

We’ve graduated from “abolish ICE is the moderate position” to “Nuremberg trials for the Trump regime and its Gestapo is the moderate position.”

Blocks are scum sucking bottom dwellers and i wish nothing but misery for them.

I gotta say it is cool as fuck that our millennial movement mayor is actually appointing millennial movement people. As my friend @atgenevieve.bsky.social pointed out, Cea scares the richest people in the world, and they’ll do anything to stop effective organizers.
