ICE Goons Pepper Spray Congresswoman Adelita Grijalva During Tucson Raid | Common Dreams
"If federal agents are brazen enough to fire pellets directly at a member of Congress, imagine how they behave when encountering defenseless members of our community," Grijalva said.

Defending democracy is to protect the right of every person! It’s refusing to hand our future to authoritarians who want obedience instead of freedom, chaos instead of accountability.
They want us divided, discouraged and silent.
We will give them unity, defiance, and a hell of a lot of noise!

You know they’re worried about this weekend’s turnout at the No Kings rally when they’re already making comments about it. Who’s ready for Saturday?

Adelita Grijalva won her election fair and square.
Now House Speaker Mike Johnson is refusing to swear her in because she would be the final signature to release the Epstein files.
Mr. Speaker, respect democracy. Obey the law. Swear Representative Grijalva in immediately.

Pritzker is meeting the moment and if he stands up for the people, stands up against Trump's rein of terror, holds ICE accountable, he can elevate himself as a front runner for Dem leadership.
Now is the moment for leaders, not cowards.

Pritzker: "He wants to militarize major cities because he wants us to get used to the idea of troops on the streets. I believe he's gonna post people outside of polling places and if he needs to in order to control those elections, he'll assume control of the ballot boxes & count the votes himself"

This is Adelita Grijalva.
She was elected to Congress two weeks ago, officially making her the final vote needed to force the release of the Epstein files.
She has still not been sworn in because Mike Johnson refuses to do so.

RAJU: You swore in 2 GOP members during pro forma session. Why not swear in Grijalva? Does it have to do w/her signature on Epstein petition?
JOHNSON: It has nothing to do with that. We'll swear her in when everybody is back
R: Why not now?
J: Uh - we'll schedule it, I guess, as soon as she wants

It's happening right in front of you.
Trump and the GOP are creating their own manufactured crises, lighting the Reichstag fires, blaming "them" for the violence (their critics), citing "left-wing" terrorism, all as a setup for martial law and the Insurrection Act.
It's happening in plain sight.
