Reminder: All it would take to end the murder of American citizens by an untrained government goon squad is 16 Republicans in Congress voting with Dems to defund ICE (or 23 to impeach and remove Trump — 3 in House & 20 in Senate). That’s it. 23 Americans can vote for the public and end all of this.

This is stunning. Listen to this in Philadelphia.
Thousands singing “Hey-Oh, we won’t be silent while our friends are gunned down.”
Really listen to it.

rare to see an american politician speak in these terms and it rocks
“When I speak about making our city more affordable, my vision is not limited to the homes that we live in or the child care that we’re making universal — it’s also a vision where we make it possible for working people to afford lives of joy, of art, of rest, of expression.”

People in wheelchairs are getting arrested right now in the Russell Senate Office Building in DC. They showed up to tell Congress not to cut their Medicaid, because they cant afford health care without it. If you look closely you can see the zip ties on their hands. #WeWontGetOverLosingMedicaid

Can someone help Thumper and @phillypaws.bsky.social?
We adopted our Talulah from there a dozen years ago. They’re a wonderful shelter.

This sweet, sad marshmallow really needs a foster!
Thumper is having a hard time at the shelter, often squishing himself into corners or under blankets to feel safer.
He lost his home for the 2nd time in 2 years after his adopter became too ill to care for him & is so stressed he's barely eating 🧵

Andry José Hernández Romero, I remember you, even if I do not know how to articulate my horror, rage, & sorrow at your treatment by my government.
No one has heard from you in 64 days.
As vigil, I’m posting a photo of you every day until you are returned from El Salvador.

First, Riordan tried to pull a “mangled” front right door by sliding his fingers inside the crack, but “nothing budged at all,” he told investigators. He then tried to open the doors by pressing the electronic buttons of the doors, but they were not working.
What an absolute nightmare. A high school student saw his friends crash their Cybertruck and rushed to help, but was only able to rescue one of them because the car's doors would not open from the outside.
He watched his three other friends burn to death.
