It’s hard for me to believe you care about the well-being of others when you have chosen to remain silent on the abuse and trauma ICE and BP are inflicting on people all over the country. Here is a story of them using CIA torture techniques on innocent people. bsky.app/profile/atta...
They're using the confinement box, one of the most horrific methods of CIA torture in the post-9/11 black sites, against migrants now. This is the direct result of the lack of consequences for the architects of the torture program. Either there will be criminal penalties for this or it will expand.

Amnesty International, interviewing migrant detainees, identifies use of the confinement box. There can be no denying it is a torture prison

How are you going to help the tenants of the Southside building ICE raided who are now being told to vacate by next Friday? Where are they supposed to go and with what money? What are you doing to hold the slumlord accountable?

Why are police in Broadview throwing priests to the ground and arresting them? Do you find this acceptable?

Can you explain why you voted in favor of a nationwide hemp ban?

We all know you like throwing around your position as chair of DSCC to bully Dems into doing what you want. If you’re really opposed to caving to the Republicans, could you try bullying for good for once?

I’m not arguing that. I’m just saying it’s not officially a done deal yet.
November 10, 2025 at 9:35 PM
It’s not officially over, yet. bsky.app/profile/eliz...
Is the shutdown over? Not yet.
Tonight’s vote was only step 1 of 5.
There’s still another 60-vote hurdle, amendments, AND then the House.
Pressure matters right now—especially on Kaine, Rosen, Hassan, Shaheen.
Stay loud.

Please call on Schumer yo step down as leader. He needs to go if we’re ever going to have a fighting chance.

Please call on Schumer to step down as leader. We can’t continue on with him.
November 10, 2025 at 2:35 AM
You need to step down as leader immediately.
November 10, 2025 at 2:33 AM
You need to go.
November 10, 2025 at 1:39 AM
Please push for a new minority leader. Schumer is killing this party and any hopes of getting out of this fascist mess.

Please push for a new senate minority leader. Schumer is killing this party and if we have any hopes of getting out of this mess, he needs to be removed from leadership.

DON’T YOU DARE CAVE. This the first thing you’ve gotten right. Don’t screw it up.

What? No congratulations to Zohran Mamdani, the DEMOCRAT who won the NYC mayoral race last night? That’s weird but I’ll keep that in mind next time you’re up for re-election.

Defense is now questioning Lairmore on cross-examination. They show a video still of the sandwich and wrapper on the ground, post-throw.

"Do you recognize that sandwich?" the attorney asks.

Lairmore won't confirm.

"I did not go back to collect it," he says.

Can you explain why state police are in Broadview in armored vehicles, telling peaceful protesters to disperse or they will face “painful compliance techniques” ?

You are a total WASTE of a Senator. Resign now. bsky.app/profile/eric...
Gillibrand said she is not doing interviews. When I asked her about the New York City mayor’s race, she repeated that.

Read this. This is horrific and heartbreaking and far from an isolated case. You come on this internet and spout about your Catholic faith and yet you continue to be silent about the illegal and inhumane treatment of immigrants in this country. You truly disgust me. bsky.app/profile/deni...
🧵This horrific story is being reported all over Latin America, but not the US.

Randall Gamboa, a Costa Rican, was deported from the US in such a critical health condition it required an ambulance flight.

He then died upon his return to Costa Rica after being detained for 8 months by DHS.

These posts are lazy and uninformative. I mean you don’t even post the links to the articles so people can read it for themselves.

You keep saying you’re ready to fight but I have yet to see any proof of that.

Resign. You’re not up for the job and the people of NY don’t want you.

Stop asking us if we’re ready to fight back. We have been begging you to get in this fight with us since January.

Also, what are you doing about this?? bsky.app/profile/adam...
