They bombed little girls. They killed grandmothers during raids. They eviscerated fishermen so badly that there were no bodies to bury. They refused medical attention in ICE facilities. They robbed us of lifesaving medications. They blinded reporters during protests.

Good time to remind people that: 1. The federal government's deportation agenda isn't possible without local collaboration. 2. Working with ICE is completely voluntary! This is a bare-minimum step in the right direction. Local law enforcement must completely END (not just limit) cooperation.

I want 1000 articles focused on people in the Rio Grande, the trans people elected to office, the Black people in the South who have been organizing for the past 2 decades, the young people in NYC who decided to overthrow the corrupt Cuomo etc al, the young people across the world fighting back, etc

Just to remind you all how we got here: a lot of it was things like these students marching 40 minutes together to vote because they didn't get a polling place on campus. We need to remember them and make sure that they never have to do it again.

If he's doing this, he must have good reason to believe that he's legitimately vulnerable in the caucus, especially with 8 new members who have no reason to be loyal to him, including some that he actively tried to keep from ever getting nominated in the first place.

Schumer is apparently calling favorable media figures and demanding that they write favorable stories about why he should be Majority Leader. Know that when you see them, those stories are planted.

The first thing the Democratic Party can do to demonstrate it understands the opportunity it’s been given is replace Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries as leaders of the Senate and House.
