Just want to share with my American friends how the Australians respond to a shooting tragedy. Action, rather than thoughts and prayers.

Weird to go to bed reading about the Brown shooting. Waking up to news about the Bondi Beach shooting and to be heading to bed reading that Rob Reiner and his wife were apparently stabbed to death.

I hope everyone affected finds some kind of peace.

Made survival kits for the unhoused today with seventeen kids and their parents.

It took all of an hour thanks to the incredible organizing of all the moms who collaborated to buy by family and put them together, and one incredible host family.

50+ kits going to the soup kitchen tomorrow.

As details continue to come in on the shooting at Brown University tonight, this much is clear: two innocent people were killed, and countless others will live with this trauma for life.

We cannot accept this as normal, doing nothing is not an option.

The White House continues to make our work harder. They’ve:

After Marcelo Gomes da Silva was arrested by ICE on his way to volleyball practice in Milford, he made a promise to the men he shared a cell with: He’d be a voice for immigrants unfairly detained.

He's one of Boston Globe Magazine’s Bostonians of the Year.

This am, I met with Scott Hamby, the Dem candidate in the Georgia 72 District.

Scott is a combat vet & GA native. He worked food aid in Ukraine, helped evacuate Afghanistan, and served for 20 yrs.

He is out to flip a gerrymandered district that's been in GOP hands for generations.

DOJ has sued Maine, Oregon, California, Michigan, Minnesota, New York, New Hampshire, Pennsylvania, Washington, Delaware, Maryland, New Mexico, Rhode Island, and Vermont for access to its most sensitive voter data.

My firm has moved to intervene in 10 of those cases. We are working on the last 4.

For what its worth my docs at the Mayo clinic questioned me extensively about past glyphosate exposure when I was being treated for non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Environmental causes of cancer are notoriously hard to pin down, but that one's real enough that docs will ask about it in a clinical setting.

ICE/CBP does not have the manpower to carry out their goals and are struggling to recruit. They need partnerships with local law enforcement to execute mass deportations.

One place to direct your local organizing activity is into whether your town or city has in fact signed a partnership with ICE.
The most expansive model of 287(g) partnership between state and local law enforcement and ICE is also the fastest-growing.

People keep wondering why they're going after Venezuela. It's because they want to do regime change and control its oil, then use a big tract of land there to keep a tax free "network state" that looks like Dubai but operates like Rhodesia. They are saying this out loud! Believe them!

Articles of impeachment have officially been filed against deranged chaos agent RFK Jr and drunkard rapist fox host war criminal Pete Hegseth.

They should be filed against the entire MAGA regime seeing as all of them are dangerous, treasonous and unqualified.
