Yes all this everyone can do something even 2 day a week..every Democratic Group needs volunteers
Look at your local elections, there is no federal lever that can cancel or discount elections. Become a poll worker, help your local candidates knock doors, help people register to vote. Call their bluffs, the pushback in Utah worked and we have a blue district despite them trying everything

ICE is running a “conveyor belt” of illegally detained Minnesota families.
Agents are arresting entire families with legal status and immediately shipping them off to Texas to deny them legal representation and avoid the federal courts in Minnesota.
The cruelty is endless.

The GOP doesn't want a rule that ICE can't wear masks for fear of doxxing. If the agents weren't acting like absolute Gestapo thugs, it wouldn't be a problem.

Let's see: Trump calls most media networks and journalists fake news. He casts doubt on the election process. He has "joked" about no reason to have midterms and threatens to use the insurrection act. He is attempying to narrow election eligibility rules. Sounds sort of sinister to me.

"Sanctuary" status isn't just about doing good. It's a survival strategy for states who understand that state and local "cooperation" with DHS actually means that we pick up much of the bill for federal immigration enforcement.
The DHS budget for 2026 is $332,720,000,000.
