Yes on CA Prop 50
Voting Yes on Proposition 50 is vitally important to farm workers and immigrant families. Trump is attacking and targeting latino families. Yes on Proposition 50 pushes back to protect our voices in Congress.  It is a chance to stand together and say: enough is enough. #YesOnProp50

Christian.Nationalist.Fascism
Christian nationalist fascism: when they lower masked Gestapo goons from helicopters in the night to smash apartment windows, terrorize residents, and zip-tie and kidnap children for not being white looking enough— and then violate the 1st Amendment by reciting scripture from a government account.

Your friendly reminder that if you have never spoken up about anything and feel the need to, NOW is the perfect time to do so. Don’t be afraid. There are more of us than them. Our voices are louder and need you now more than ever.

This is depressingly common now. A lot of people have in absentia removal orders they don't know about. And now that the benefits office is becoming an arm of the mass deportation machine, so people are getting picked up in this situation -- and grace to give time to file a motion to reopen is gone.
I have approximately zero following on this app, sharing in the hopes it can get in front of the right person. A man I went to college with’s wife was kidnapped by ICE at a green card hearing, and he’s trying to find a reporter who will speak to him about the situation

Can you share this? This is one hell of an ad from a Democrat running for US Senate against Susan Collins. We need to take back the Senate and have a real majority. Don’t forget Maine has ranked voting. We need great Democrats running.

Don’t let her forget about Kavanaugh or Roe.
Please share: My name is David Costello. I am a lifelong Mainer and Democrat running against Susan Collins. I too am concerned. I am concerned with endless decisions Susan Collins has made. We need to turn a page, retire Susan and take back the US Senate. Please watch and share:

The Democratic leaders are finally seeming to build a little momentum. Whew, but we need to keep doing whatever it takes to
DNC chair @kenmartin.bsky.social spoke with me just moments after Governor Newsom announced the November 4 referendum to save our democracy.

His take? “We can’t keep fighting with one hand tied behind our back while they shred the Constitution before our eyes.”

While Texans are in mourning from devastating floods, Trump & Gov. Abbott are rushing an off-cycle gerrymandering scheme that would rig the midterm elections, suppress voters, and undermine democracy.
