We're hearing that Dems may be caving on the government shut-down fight. Call Senators NOW and tell them to hold strong and not give up their negotiating leverage. Please USE YOUR VOICE on this important issue!
Senator Klobuchar: 202-224-3244
Senator Smith: 202-224-5641

Sounds like the squishes in the senate caucus are ready to pull the plug with no ACA changes. This is real. If you want to register your opinion you shld call yr senator in the next hour. They not only want to reopen w/nothing. They want cover from their colleagues who still want to hold out.

For the record, when I put this chant on the No Kings Day chant list back in June, I wrote *fascist ICE*. Somewhere along the way, it got censored.
Proud of the Rapid Response To Kristi Noem's press conference in Minnesota yesterday. 🐸
1,500 protestors showed up outside the Bishop Henry Whipple Building to greet her. ✊🏼
Chanting: "No more Minnesota nice, we don't want your dirty ICE." 🧊

Minnesota kicks ass, every time. Thanks to all who showed up to tell Noem to go home!
RAPID RESONSE RECAP:
With only 22 hours lead time, over 1000 dedicated protestors gathered at the Bishop Henry Whipple building, forcing Kristi Noem's motorcade to sneak in the back just before 4pm, and speed off shortly after 5pm.
Once again, as with Vance and Hegseth, Minnesota shows up.

As of yesterday, no SNAP benefits will be paid in Minnesota for the remainder of October. No new cases or renewals will be approved. If the shutdown continues, it will affect benefits in November as well.

We had 25 to 30 people at ICE HQ yesterday morning. We need double, triple, ten times as many, please. The new KKK needs to know how many are opposed to their existence.
Every Wednesday morning, we stand against legalized terror at ICE HQ - 1 Federal Drive in Minneapolis.
Follow "No More MNICE" on Facebook for details and instructions on protesting this abhorrent agency, as well as respectfully observing court cases post-protest.

With all this talk of political violence, my hot take is the "big beautiful bill" IS political violence. Deaths that will result from it were clearly known ahead of time. It's premeditated, and every single Republican legislator is complicit.

if you believe you have a god-given right to own an assault rifle that not even thousands of dead children can take away from you, I really hope I never make it to your “heaven”. sounds like it’s only for heartless monsters.
