The government shutdown appears to be nearing an end and we know this has brought out a ton of mixed reactions.

But to us, it did not need to end this way. But it did, so we're asking ourselves, “What does this mean? Why did it end this way? What comes next?”

Let's unpack 1/🧵

GOV. @gavinnewsom.bsky.social : “Facts are stubborn things… Mississippi, Tennessee, Arkansas…. Alabama is a top 3 murder state. Where is the President? — He isn’t focused on crime & violence. It’s about an expression of authoritarianism.”

A couple of months ago, the Navy dishonored civil rights hero Harvey Milk by removing his name from a ship.

Now, the Air Force is dishonoring itself by celebrating a domestic terrorist called Ashli Babbitt.

If someone tells you there's nothing we can do about gun violence beyond thoughts and prayers, remind them:

—Gun laws in other countries have prevented mass shootings
—More guns don't make us safer
—A majority of Americans want gun reform

We don't have to live like this.

Republicans are trying to redraw congressional district lines to keep their grip on Congress in the midterms and beyond. 

Voters should pick their politicians, not the other way around.

NEW: The DNC raised $8.6 million in June and has now raised over $50 million this year.

This level of grassroots enthusiasm is unprecedented, and we're investing every dollar into building infrastructure to win races this November and next year.

Metadata Shows the FBI’s ‘Raw’ Jeffrey Epstein Prison Video Was Likely Modified
There is no evidence the footage was deceptively manipulated, but ambiguities around how the video was processed may further fuel conspiracy theories about Epstein's death.

Mayor Brandon Scott has reduced crime in Baltimore by 62%, and now has the lowest homicide rate in Baltimore history.

How did he do it?

NOT be spending more on police. He did it by MAJOR investment in afterschool and literacy programs.

With ICE's *enormous* new budget and its ability to hire *many* more agents, the United States is about to enter an era of brutal domestic terrorism that we've never seen before.

If you want to change this country stop supporting the oligarchy.

Don’t shop for anything other than necessities.

Don’t watch the news on CBS, NBC, ABC.

Don’t watch CNN & carefully pick the shows you watch on MSNBC.

We’re consumers not citizens to them. Stop giving them your eyes & $.
