We want to speak directly to members of the Military and the Intelligence Community.

The American people need you to stand up for our laws and our Constitution.

Don’t give up the ship.

Unfortunate. They were doing a great job.
We strongly condemn @CondéNast’s consolidation plans for Teen Vogue, a move that is clearly designed to blunt the award-winning magazine’s insightful journalism at a time when it is needed the most. More from our statement:

This is incredibly stated. GET HIM MORE AIR TIME!!
I love how Rep. Joe Neguse reframed this question.

Hadn't really thought about it this way, but ya.
It's kind of amazing that the Dem ask was "make it easier for Republicans to get reelected by delaying consequences for some of their terrible laws until after midterms" and the gamble that the GOP would go full childkiller/starver and reject it was correct.

Hi, I'm the ProPublica reporter who's been tracking an unusual stat: U.S. citizens grabbed by immigration agents.

I did it because the government isn’t.

This is what I found.

Excellent thread about why clothing costs so much.
This two-parter below is exactly why it's hard to make clothes in the United States.

Let's look at how much it costs to produce a button-up shirt in the US. 🧵

Do you have any idea how mad a midwest catholic has to be before they start talking like this?
Chicago priest Fr. Larry Dowling describes procession to ICE facility: “No one had the courage to speak directly to us. No one from Homeland Security could stand in the presence of the Monstrance holding the Blessed Sacrament. No wonder. Evil is repelled, recoils in the presence of Christ.”

We are in the second week of the Republican shutdown.

Where are House Republicans? On vacation.

Went looking around the Capitol to see if any Republicans had the common sense to come back. Featuring @mcbride.house.gov.

I’ve been working on this for a WHILE and would be so grateful if you could check it out and share—Dems need a vision, and they keep missing the mark. We built it for them, grassroots, and have a plan to make it happen.

What if we could channel all our frustrations over our country’s rapid slide into authoritarianism into advocacy for policies that work for all of us?

We can. Welcome to @americandemands.bsky.social #DemandBetter

To the restaurants refusing ICE service, the hoteliers locking their doors, the tow truck drivers trailing their vehicles—with tears in my eyes, I say, thank you.

Trying to psych myself up for the No Kings protest on 10/18. Everyone has such funny/kewl/smart/thoughtful signs.

Workshopping: "Druids are First Function but we still say NO KINGS!"
