📣 We’re in the news: Community Health Centers are facing serious threats from Medicaid & other federal funding cuts. Hear from our Executive Director, Carlene Pavlos, & other public health leaders on what’s at stake & what these cuts could mean for the future of CHCs: https://bit.ly/4qn0fnY

There are at least 45 reasons for not celebrating #PresidentsDay starting with number 1: Town Destroyer.

ICE using the same ruse that Ted Bundy used to kidnap people should tell you something.

👏🏻🔥👏🏻🔥

Fellow #NorthShoreMA residents should read & share this article which includes an example of #LynnMA police contacting ICE about a Guatemalan man they had arrested who was going to be released on bail. Lynn residents should also call/email their Mayor & City Council about this.

ICE’s 287(g) program deputizes local or state agencies to assist with immigration enforcement. Massachusetts’ Democratic governor has defended one such agreement her state’s Department of Corrections has with the federal agency.

Listen to this. Not a penny more for this. Abolish and prosecute anyone who had anything to do with it.

The pace at which US wealth concentration is rising is simply staggering The concentration of AI wealth into the hands of a few tech barons + plutocratic capture ==> unchartered territory

medical miracle: this 75 year old man was born yesterday

They’ll say ANYTHING.

This decision by @massgovernor.bsky.social to rollout a ChatGPT assistant for state workers is deeply irresponsible for a governor of a coastal state already experiencing the impacts of climate change. news.mit.edu/2025/explain...

spot on #KidRock

I don’t think we can make this observation enough. And I feel similarly about abolishing ICE. Everyone saying that’s a road too far seems to forget (ignore) that Trump essentially did that to USAID and is in the process of doing that to the Dept of Education. We can do things. If we choose to.

Come to the Salem Dems meeting and meet me!

This thread seems to confirm my very strong prior that a big part of what's wrong with DHS is that it blurs foreign and domestic authority, and by doing so inherently promotes bringing military and intelligence behavior into the civilian world

Mark your calendars for the primary on September 1st, and sign up here to join me in collecting signatures to get me on the ballot!

What a privilege to spend a morning talking progress over bagels and pastries with new friends in Swampscott! Visit our website to sign up to join us for a Meet and Greet near you, or to volunteer to host one yourself! 🏠 👇🏻 www.tramforcongress.com/events

On 2/23 from 6-7:30 PM: meet #MA-6 candidates running for Seth Moulton’s seat at the Levesque Community Life Center, 401 Bridge Street, #SalemMA. Confirmed: @tramforcongress.bsky.social @drmariahlancaster.bsky.social @rickjakious.bsky.social & Jamie Belsito. #Mapoli #MA06

While Flock claims ALPR (Automated License Plate Reader) cameras keep neighborhoods safe, the evidence tells a different story. Join our livestream "Get the Flock Out of Our City" on 2/19 at 12pm PT to find out more! www.eff.org/livestream-...

From Flock cameras to fusion centers, “free” surveillance equipment funded by tech vendors, federal grants, and private donors locks cities into recurring costs and long-term data‑sharing, including with ICE. The end result is an erosion of our civil liberties. www.eff.org/deeplinks/2...

An important read. We must act now to oppose the proliferation of surveillance technologies in our communities. As @markey.senate.gov wrote in his op-ed in last week’s Boston Globe, these technologies are an authoritarian’s dream & a fundamental threat to the civil liberties of everyone in America.

So amazing! #Stonewall

The Border Patrol agents lied. They always lie. And they lie to destroy other people's lives for fun. www.huffpost.com/entry/border...

Tech companies are turning over data to DHS identifying users criticizing or tracking ICE. Action must be taken IMMEDIATELY to prevent this hunting of Americans for simply exercising their first amendment right to free speech. This is one more reason we need to #ABOLISHICE https://nyti.ms/4aiwuQD

🔥🔥🔥

we need to talk about that Ring Super Bowl ad

Did you know ICE agents get only 47 days of training before they’re handed a gun and sent out into American streets? Why 47? In honor of Trump being the 47th President, of course. Congress must stop funding ICE and rein in this rogue agency.

Ring’s Super Bowl ad exposed a scary truth: the technology in its doorbell cameras could be used to hunt down a lost pet...or a person. Americans oppose this creepy surveillance state. Amazon must discontinue its dystopian monitoring features.

Republicans' election bill is Jim Crow voter suppression. It would disenfranchise millions of voters, silence your voices, & dilute our electoral power. And that's exactly why I voted NO.

TOMORROW: Minnesota organizers and leaders will share what they’ve learned so we can all be better prepared to organize and protect our neighbors from ICE and CBP deployments: www.crowdcast.io/c/reimagine/...

Today's mood.

When I got the contract to write a history of concentration camps in 2014, I hoped to keep the US from ending up here. That didn't work out! But now it's critical to understand how much is already in process and the enormity of what's coming. The sooner we act to stop it, the more people we'll save.

Organizers in Minnesota have transformed crisis into action and tragedy into solidarity. On Thursday, those organizers and MN leaders will share what they’ve learned so we can all be better prepared to organize and protect our neighbors from ICE and CBP deployments: www.crowdcast.io/c/reimagine/...

Friends from Minneapolis reporting to me that things are at the point where folks are being hidden in other people's houses and we are in the "again" part of "never again" which the "never" was supposed to preclude

Everyday people are proving a greater willingness to call BS on Trump's behavior than most elite institutions have shown. www.cnbc.com/2026/02/11/k...

Notice how the popular media narrative has moved on, while people on the ground in Minneapolis are still struggling and crying out that things are as bad as ever. This is how fascist regimes operate — overreach, recalibration, normalization. Get louder, not quieter.

Brad Lander commits to cosponsoring the Block The Bombs Act if elected, which would ban the US government from transferring cluster bombs, JDAMs, artillery and tank shells, and other munitions to the Israeli government.

Looking forward to this important upcoming regional town hall on 2/22 about protecting MA from Trump's cruel funding cuts. Organized by @capeannindivisible.bsky.social with invited speakers @jonathancohn.bsky.social from @progressivemass.bsky.social & Crisayda Belen from @raiseupma.bsky.social.

AOC on DHS Warehouses: I think every American should be alarmed. They are building—and have built—a black box system that disappears people, both immigrants and U.S. citizens alike.

No, but please keep posting those super fun AI-generated cartoons that use data you handed over on Facebook. 🤦🏻‍♀️

“A freedom of information request by Good Law Project has found that deaths by suicide of trans young people under 18 surged following the withdrawal of gender-affirming healthcare…” The political attacks on healthcare for young trans people has horrific outcomes. Trans youth deserve to thrive. 🏳️‍⚧️
