Ice is shooting at US Citizens & if it can happen to them, it can happen to you!

They are even abducting indigenous people! US Citizens...natives to this land for thousands of years.

If this mother & tribal leadership hadn't gotten involved, who knows what would have happened to this young lady.

This administration wastes tax payers dollars on: $2M for a Rose Garden remodel. $175M for two private jets for Noem. $1B to remodel a private jet from Qatar. $150M on golfing trips...but wants to eliminate the title 10 program that millions of Americans depend on to access medical services.

842,000 Americans died from overdoses in the last 25 years, 500,000 from opioids. If we’re hunting narco-terrorists we can probably stop blowing up fishing boats and start blowing up boardrooms.

These posters started popping up ahead of next week’s We Ain’t Buying It boycott.

From Nov 27 - Dec 1, folks are stepping back from corporate chains like Target, Home Depot, and Amazon. People are done being squeezed, so they are using the leverage of their wallets 💥

To everyone saying that people in our military already know not to follow unlawful orders, how do you explain almost 100 civilians murdered on fishing boats in the Caribbean so far?

We want to speak directly to members of the Military and the Intelligence Community.

The American people need you to stand up for our laws and our Constitution.

Why is the "we must be united!" hectoring directed at people who are mad at the Cavers and not to the Cavers? Everyone who's mad was united, then the Cave Caucus walked across the aisle and betrayed what the public had been told was the Dem position.
The sooner we get past internal recriminations and back to fighting united, the better off we all are — the likelier our victory next November.

Food bank director, Jill Dixon explains that for every meal a food bank provides the SNAP program provides nine. If Republicans don’t negotiate with Democrats to keep SNAP benefits going after the Nov 1 deadline, Americans are going to starve. This is just cruel and vile ‼️

The president is experiencing OBVIOUS mental and physical decline. Pre$$ ignores. He barks about a third term, and the press asks how he'll do it, rather than pointing out that it's unconstitutional. That's not legal.

Oligarchs purchased the news media and it died.

Corporate news is a cancer.

That means there’s no staff to alert you if your pacemaker is recalled
