Not all “Hands Off” events were in-person. I attended two virtual events centering chronically ill and disabled people for @motherjones.com, who are terrified about attacks to Medicaid, Section 504, research funding, education and more. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

TODAY WE MOBILIZED OVER 3 MILLION PEOPLE ACROSS THE NATION!!! This movement has entered the next chapter: the people will mobilize again, and again, until we make a difference. It only takes 3.5% of the population in a sustained resistance in order to make a difference. #50501movement

Last week, ICE raided a business in El Cajon. It’s my job to stand up for my constituents and ensure their rights are protected – no matter their immigration status. That’s why I led Reps. Scott Peters and Juan Vargas to get answers from Secretary Noem about what happened.

When you look at the list of institutions they want to defund: libraries, museums, the Smithsonian, public schools, PBS, NPR, archives, you can clearly see that the real threat to an authoritarian regime is an informed and educated public

Kristi Noem billed South Dakota taxpayers more than $640,000 in personal travel-related costs, including a six-day trip to Paris, a bear hunt in Canada, a trip to Houston for dental work to fix her smile, and a book tour. But she can afford a $50,000 Rolex for a prison porn photo op in El Salvador.

Martial Law. It’s the elephant in the room. It’s what authoritarians resort to when the tide turns against them. It’s what the authoritarian in this White House is setting the stage for. 🧵…

ICE has already moved Rumeysa Ozturk to Louisiana in violation of a court order signed last night ordering her not to be removed from Massachusetts. This is rendition to avoid legal process and to torture detainees in Louisiana. apnews.com/article/tuft...

Unidentified men grabbing someone off the street and putting her in a car because she wrote an op-Ed. This as flatly authoritarian as anything we’ve seen in this country in a very long time.

I can't watch this and say nothing. The arrest of people lawfully here because of things they have said is nothing short of creating a new class of political prisoners. Then sweeping them away to Louisiana to evade the rule of law is atrocious. We cannot stay silent.

If you think what happened to Rumeysa Ozturk can't happen to you because you're a citizen and she's not, you are sorely mistaken. Ozturk was snatched off the street not for being a national security threat but for having a wrong opinion. If we don't put a stop to this, it's coming for all of us.

That Kristi Noem video with the detainees is so upsetting and the fact any sizable fraction, let alone a majority, of our society would endorse it is evidence of a deep rot in our entire culture. Like until you answer what fuels the appetite for that kind of thing it will only get worse

Not getting much attention, but the Senate GOP is about to start voting - to make sure banks can charge higher overdraft fees. Seriously. Good time to let your Senators know what you think of that.

After weeks of tanking, Tesla's stock rallied—perhaps because Musk can now summon the FBI + DOJ to threaten protestors with surveillance + domestic terror charges to protect his inventory and assuage investors' concerns by force. Yet another example of how this new American oligarchy wields power:

Due to effective pushback by the people of Greenland, JD Vance has scaled back his trip, canceling all of the "sight seeing" to tour the US base only. This is not a complete victory; we suspect Vance might declare base security "inadequate" to justify more troops in Greenland - but we'll see.

One thing is to mess up your opsec the other thing is to fuck up your actual operation. It doesn’t matter if you do it with a knife or with an airstrike. Murder is murder. It’s time to start thinking of people as humans again instead of acronyms and statistics.

The fact that the head of the CIA, DNI, NSA and VPOTUS were all on this chat thread and never interjected to say "Team, WTF are you doing? This is not a secure channel and these conversations do not happen here. Do I make myself clear?" is a damning indictment of their fitness for service.
