Come join with others to stand against Trump's political prosecutions, against ICE's attacks on our communities, and for freedom of speech and the right to protest.

See you tomorrow.

Hey, everyone, if you know how much your insurance premiums are being ratcheted up this year, you should definitely post them on this senator's page. They're one of the eight that voted yes to reopen the government.

Food banks were already struggling to keep with demand. Then, Trump slashed $1 billion from crucial USDA programs supporting them.

Now, thanks to his shutdown, food assistance for millions of Americans is about to try up.

The perfect storm of cruelty.

My perhaps controversial assessment is that when you share the propaganda of your enemies to call it out or to mock it… you’re still spreading their propaganda and maybe doing exactly what they hope you’ll do.

That a federal judge had to block the Trump administration from pushing millions of Americans into hunger says everything about this President and the party he leads.

Grateful to our Attorney General for being on the frontlines of this fight.
In a major victory, a court ruled the Trump administration must use emergency funds to provide food stamps to Americans.
 
No one should choose between paying bills and buying groceries.
 
We'll continue our lawsuit to fight for our families and the services they deserve.

It'll have ripples effects too. It won't be limited to healthcare. Housing. Employment. Everything will be impacted, negatively, to one degree or another.

We need a National Healthcare system. We need to salt the Earth of private insurance and privatized healthcare. But that goes against the interest of billionaires that our politicians, especially Trump and his cronies represent.
Breaking: members were at Congress yesterday calling out skyrocketing healthcare costs and urging lawmakers to protect care.

If Congress doesn’t act, 22 million people could lose coverage and premiums could rise up to 75%. Families deserve care, not cuts.

Every authoritarian action Trump is taking must be understood against the backdrop of his declining popularity.

He feigns strength, but he's operating from a place of weakness.

Remember this.

Minneapolis has become a tale of two cities. One for the wealthy and well connected, and one for all of us — the renters, transit riders, and working families who are left with vetoes and broken promises. We need a Mayor who stands with working people, and works as hard as we do.

Do you want a union but not know how to union? Most of the big unions have websites you can contact them through. You can hunt down SEIU, IBEW, IWW, Teamsters, etc online and get in contact with an organizer to give you those initial steps into unionizing. Labor Notes is also intensely helpful.

Workers want to come together in unions — plain and simple.

But companies spend hundreds of millions every year trying to stop them.
Imagine what could change if that money went to fair wages, safety, and healthcare instead of intimidation campaigns.

Y'all don't forget to give Omar Fateh a follow. Running for Mayor of Minneapolis and taking a hard stance against Trump and ICE, and seems to have a good head on his shoulders. We need folks like him in power throughout the US.

Our local government should be a line of defense against the dangerous Trump administration. As Mayor, I'm ready to partner with the State, Hennepin County, and boots on the ground organizations to ensure Minneapolis protects our neighbors.

Anything that happens to the criminals at ICE has been earned 10 times over. If the DOJ was interested in restoring 'law and order' they'd be picking up ICE agents in the dozens and shoving them into jail cells to await trial.

"Law and order" is rarely about either thing, and more about violence on those of us who live and work in this country. Always distrust those banging those drums as doing nothing but sheer propaganda and appealing to your anxiety.
Federal agents from ICE and HSI—some in military fatigues and masks—descended on Chinatown today in an aggressive and reckless raid on immigrant street vendors.

Once again, the Trump administration chooses authoritarian theatrics that create fear, not safety. It must stop.
Federal agents descend on Chinatown in apparent raid
The raid follows recent federal arrests at a Midtown migrant shelter, part of what officials call a broader push to “restore law and order” in New York City.

ICE are the criminals.
3 small children run to escape ICE raid in Idaho manage to find family.

"I didn’t get caught," boy says. "Nobody got some handcuffs on me."

Dozens of minors were among hundreds detained zip tied and separated from parents.

The federal government "jawbones" private companies by pressuring them to silence voices they can’t legally censor themselves, and Big Tech has erased ICE‑watching apps and an ICE-Sighting Chicago Facebook group.
