Let's strengthen the Democratic Party by standing firmly on principle: (1) Medicare for All is a non-negotiable human right. (2) Demand leaders who can't be bought by foreign lobbyists, like AIPAC. (3) Stand for human rights, whether in the U.S, Palestine, or anywhere else.

Well well well if it isn't the thing I have been talking about all week. If ice will not identify themselves how do we know that they are actually real ice agents? How can we possibly be resisting arrest when we believe we are trying to escape a kidnapping by masked and identified men w/o warrants?

Can’t make it to the streets? You can still show up:
Donate to local bail funds.
Share verified protest info on socials.
Cook a meal for friends who marched.
Offer rides home if you have a car.
