Friends - I watched this dozens of times. And each time with tears in my eyes, I am reminded what we became and what we were. I am Alex Pretti!
I implore you to keep them alive in our collective consciousness and memory. Give them their voices, show their faces.

The lives of Alex Pretti and Renee Good were ripped away by ICE monsters.

Don't let this fade into the background!

Please share!

@katyturreport.bsky.social I did not vote for Blakeman for county executive. He’s a trump man and he ran a smear campaign. His ICE operation spawned a lawsuit from the NY Civil Liberties Union alleging law violations and potential racial profiling. He won’t get my vote for gov. No way.

The closer we get to the 18th the more local protest will be organized.

If you know California voters, tell them that if Trump rigs the next election and Republicans keep Congress, they will most certainly not certify the election in 2028 if they don't like the result. No one is saying gerrymandering is good, but unilaterally disarming could be the end of our democracy.
These are being circulated in LA and possibly around the state. Obv a RW op and recognized as such by many at this point but we have work to do. Just for your awareness, esp if you plan to help to pass the CA ballot measure.

Hi. I’m the executive director of the organization that had the honor of hosting the FEMA Katrina Declaration and I can confirm this is a lie.

O'Keefe to Noem: "At least 20 people who signed this letter were current FEMA employees & they've been placed on administrative leave. Is it now the policy of DHS that anytime an employee puts their name on something criticizing you or POTUS, they should anticipate being put on leave or fired?"

Brett Meiselas: When people speak about the Epstein case as a cover-up in the past...the cover-up is happening right now.

The biggest part of the whole scandal may be happening before our eyes right now—what Donald Trump is saying every day, what Trump and his team are doing every day.
