Mike Pruitt, a Navy veteran and current member of the Albemarle County Board of Supervisors, has ended his campaign for the Fifth Congressional District of Virginia.

CALL TO ACTION: Tell Senator Deeds to oppose criminalization! Sen Deeds is supporting amendments that will dilute marijuana legalization & further criminalize black & brown communities. Email Deeds ASAP to oppose destructive, failed approaches to public safety. docs.google.com/document/d/1...

The disproportionate criminalization of Black people starts at a young age. While Black and white kids use drugs at similar rates, Black youth make up 24% of kids confined for drug offenses, despite comprising just 14% of the general youth population.

A great action you can take TODAY to support workers.

My friend lives in this building and said it was truly terrifying. The whole building woke up to their building being broken into by federal agents all to grab some guy who’s posted about being anti facist.

While the U.S. goes for gold & aims to be the best at the Olympics, it's already #1 among independent democracies when it comes to mass incarceration – and that’s nothing to celebrate. So much for the “land of the free.”

It will be dark and cold, but we can do what Minnesotans are doing every day! Organizers are hoping for a big turnout — share with your Richmond area friends! #ICEOut

1000x this. Stop it with the candied nuts in salad and get your ancho chile out of my desserts.

This show is extraordinary — the 911 calls in cities with escalated ICE and CBP presence. ICE calling 911! (Spoiler alert, it is often for their incompetence or they’re just lying) podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t...

I testified Friday before Gov. Pritzker's commission studying abuses of ICE and CBP and tried to explain how the agencies went so far off track. It's actually way worse than I ever realized. Please read and share my testimony as Congress considers reform: www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/accountabi...

Oh, and fuck ICE by the way. All the ghouls of fascism can go out swinging. Power to the workers Power to the people Don't lose hope

Don Lemon appreciation post. Here @donlemonofficial.bsky.social in Charlottesville last April. He showed up unannounced at an @indivisiblecville.bsky.social event and encouraged others to show up too.

the arrest of journalists in minneapolis, including don lemon, is more evidence that the only move the administration knows how to make is to use force, and does not know how to respond when that force is met with defiance and indifference.

Twice this week I’ve explained that UVA Health employees don’t have things like winter storm hazard pay because in reaction to Black UVA Health employees organizing for better working conditions, in 1947 the General Assembly made collective bargaining illegal for public sector employees in Virginia.

Even if Bovino gets fired, ICE has to go. Even if Noem is out, ICE has to go. Even when Trump leaves office, ICE has to go. As protests grow and ICE's popularity drops, we may see concessions and leadership changes, like Bovino's departure. ICE still has to go. www.cnn.com/us/live-news...

So many people get sent to the hellhole that is the Baltimore hold room. These are the horrors that many people don't see or hear about. What ICE does on the streets is just one, visible part of the violence they put our communities through. So much more happens behind closed doors. Free them all.

We're not seeing them crush the testicles of teenaged boys in detention centers, but it is reportedly happening.

Our friends at The Haven just sent a message asking for donations to support over 80 community members who are homeless that The Haven and other partners have placed in hotels during this winter weather. They need to raise $27k. Please consider donating today. www.thehaven.org/give-online

TONIGHT: Join the mass call on documenting and recording law enforcement encounters. We’ll discuss how you can keep taking action as federal agents terrorize our communities. Using our constitutional right to document and record ICE & CBP is more important than ever: www.mobilize.us/nokings/even...

Why is peanut butter only made stronger by going through the dishwasher? Trivial question in the face of fascist horror but the dishes still need to be washed.

Congress approved $10 billion for ICE to continue terrorizing our communities. Trump's unchecked violence & militarization against Black, Latine, AAPI, and Native people must be stopped. We need to invest in health care, not terror. Abolish ICE! https://bit.ly/45rhOvw

Tell your senators to rein in ICE NOW act.indivisible.org/sign/ice-out... Email tool here, then call and leave a voicemail, then call and talk to a person tomorrow when offices open. Our latest email: mailchi.mp/indivisiblec...

All the silly non political Instagram feeds I follow, the vegan cooking and chopped salads and clever knitting and whatnot are all FUCK ICE WE ARE NOT OK CALL YOUR SENATORS ORGANIZE YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD today

Will this change anything? Probably not. Will anyone see it? Also unlikely. But I have my candle ready to light. Solidarity and love.

Today seems like a good time to re-up this piece I wrote with Vanessa Williamson in @thenation.com. We continue to see Democrats "insisting that formal politics can achieve what it manifestly cannot." www.thenation.com/article/poli...

It was a straight up execution.

It is increasingly clear that stripping the Department of Homeland Security down to the studs — ICE, Border Patrol, all of it — is the minimum we must do when we regain power. But we can’t afford to wait that long to rein in these agencies.

He was doing what many have been saying white men should be doing. He went outside to observe, he documented, he put his body on the line to protect another person and for this he was murdered by the gatekeepers of the fascist regime.

An antifascist nurse murdered by the fascist state www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2026/...

they're executing moms and nurses in the street. they're using preschoolers as bait. they're stealing people's dads and grandmas and children. they're tear gassing babies. they're staking out schools. there is no remedy but abolition. any proposal that doesn't start there is an act of violence.

We stand in solidarity with MN, and our immigrant communities, and people everywhere harmed by authoritarian regimes and state violence. Target is COMPLICIT. #boycotttarget. Photos from yesterday's action. #AbolishICE , #ICEoutofMinnesota , #ICEOutForGood

If ICE is emboldened to carry out extrajudicial killings of American citizens in broad daylight, imagine what's happening to the tens of thousands of people being held in makeshift detention camps across the US without cameras, attorneys and organizers

Learn what extinction burst behavior is and how we are seeing it in real time. Recognize it for what for is: desperation, not strength. Panic, not control. They only win if we hand them a win bc they're losing hard, that's why they escalate.

they’re abducting our neighbors and putting them in concentration camps and they’ll empty a whole goddamn magazine into you while you’re lying on the ground if you don’t cheer them on while they’re fucking doing it.

The 1/24 People’s Activist Series session is postponed until next week. With the storm approaching, we want folks to focus on preparing and checking in on each other. We keep us safe! We look forward to gathering together again after the snowstorm -- Saturday January 31, 2pm at The Haven.

“It is time for all Americans — citizens and residents, political leaders and neighbors, left, right, center and independent — to take a clear and unequivocal stand [against ICE]. It is unconscionable to allow this to continue.”— @riverasun.bsky.social for @wagingnonviolence.org

JOIN US TOMORROW. Stand in solidarity with Minnesota and call out Target (a Minnesota-based company) for their complicity in allowing ICE to stage in their parking lots and enter their stores to abduct people. #ICEoutofMinnesota , #ICEOutForGood, #iceoutofourcommunities #AbolishICE

"Liam, age 5, was the fourth child in the district to be detained by immigration agents in the past two weeks, school officials said. "Two of them are high-schoolers. "One is a 10-year-old girl who was apprehended on her way to school..." www.nytimes.com/2026/01/22/u...

Misinformation and rumors cause panic — Share facts only! Try to get the SALUTE information so the sighting can be verified. Not “I saw ICE south of town” but “at about 10am, I saw 4 men in uniforms (couldn’t see what kind) in 2 unmarked black SUVs getting gas at the Exxon on Route 20”

History is made by people who do things, not people who deliberate interminably over the risks of doing things, and that’s why Trump is making terrible history while every prominent Dem of our era will soon be forgotten as irrelevant trivia.

“We know what solves homelessness and that’s housing," said Ocean Aiello with The Haven. “And the need is great and continuing to increase as we see rents continue to grow more expensive and wages that just don’t keep up with it.” www.cbs19news.com/news/city-re...

No, we're not waiting for Dem leaders. They'll follow the people. Economic pressure and societal shutdown will be necessary. You start that locally before nationally. MN is showing us the way - support, replicate, learn, build.

Grateful and honored to have the endorsement of my friend, Lieutenant Governor Ghazala Hashmi.

Spanberger didn’t repeal the 287g agreements. She repealed the *requirement* to have them but didn’t terminate the state contracts that she has authority to repeal.

jack asked if i would sketch up a poster to tell people in nearby neighborhoods about the partnership between flock and ring, and this is what i came up with. it can be printed on an 8.5x11 sheet of paper.
