Oh! Well! That makes it all better Thanks, #Mikie 😒 🙄 "Gov. Mikie Sherrill defended State Police tactics outside the Delaney Hall ICE detention center, but offered to look into complaints called into her "Ask Governor Sherrill" program"

This illegal war is a disaster Everyone knows it 📉 "Donald Trump has two things to say about his war with Iran The first is, it’s already over Second, a symbolic congressional vote to end it is a stab in the back that could derail the peace talks he’s conducting for the war that’s already over"

Do not wait for the crisis Organize & Protect neighbors now⚡ "Benjamin Prado, a member of UdB since 1996, says although the region has yet to witness activity on the scale seen in L.A., Chicago, or Minneapolis, UdB has been preparing in the event that ICE surges in California in the summer"

Dr. Amy Acton calls her campaign the "ActOn Affordability Agenda," with an emphasis on working-class families. As Governor of Ohio, she will focus on lowering costs, funding public education, ensuring healthcare access and supporting organized labor. Elect Dr. Amy Acton Governor of Ohio

Choose a resistance lane Work it ⚡ 💪 ⚖️ 🗳️ ⚡

🚨 TODAY: A final Senate vote is expected on the MAGA spending bill that would shovel $70 billion more to ICE and Border Patrol to kidnap more of our neighbors and build more concentration camps like Delaney Hall. If you’ve got a GOP senator, they need to hear from you ASAP.

And there it is! He's parroting Project 2025 ⤵️ The Heritage Foundation & Billionaire Row Believe (or want you to believe) the Constitution establishes or permits Absolute Executive Authority All branches of government serve the president, personally In other words The President = The King 👑

They'll keep threatening But I predict TACO 🌮 Shut down international flights to any 3 of the major airports on their list And you're brewing a logistical system collapse ✈️ Albuquerque Boston Chicago Denver Los Angeles New Orleans New York City Newark Philadelphia Portland Seattle San Francisco

What I learned from decades of distance cycling Marathon Mode 🚲 🚵‍♀️🚲🚵‍♀️🚲 * Steady is more important than speedy * Rest when you need to * Feed your body and your spirit * Don't obsess with the finish line - one mile at a time, one day at a time * Don't go it alone - find your people

Every word he says in this rebuke 💯 "Your party is in a death spiral That's why y'all have to redistrict But the beautiful thing is, the children don't support none of this racism The MAGA party is the last breath of the Confederacy I'll be happy to see Millennials and Gen Z bury y'all"

There is no way to Gerrymander your way out of this⤵️ We need to do 2 things *now* * Help Register Voters! Challenges to voter registration are a key tactic the GOP uses to throw out votes * Join a local resistance group - they are the infrastructure we'll use to protect key polling sites from ICE

Every city, county & state Needs a voter protection plan Is your resistance group linked up with others, preparing a plan & rehearsing tactics? Primary season is the dry run “With increased tactical force and military presence, our Black and Brown communities bear the weight of their presence”

#MikieSherrill Your mission to "turn the temperature down"🌡️ At Delaney Hall Is a complete abysmal failure And an indictment - of you You simply once again proved That when governors send out the National Guard or State Police They are there to "maintain order" which means Protect ICE

I think it's right That we're in the midst of the Third Reconstruction During this 250th anniversary Rather than pat-ourselves-on-the-back patriotic parades & picnics We're being challenged to live up to the truly just promises of the Constitution And repair its weaknesses, and ourselves ⚖️ 🗳️

Capitalism & billionaires are international So is resistance⚡💪 “We’ve never seen anything like this in Albania’s protected regions. There’s been a complete collapse of rule of law with no consideration of society, no environmental consideration, no contract permits, just bulldozers moving in.”

Millions of people are engaged in resistance Choose your resistance lane and work it ⚡💪 "City workers recently climbed ladders and pulled trash bags over license plate readers installed years earlier. The black plastic bags have become the latest symbol of a growing conflict with Flock Safety.🧵

I think it's right That we're in the midst of the Third Reconstruction During this 250th anniversary Rather than pat-ourselves-on-the-back patriotic parades & picnics We're being challenged to live up to the truly just promises of the Constitution And repair its weaknesses, and ourselves ⚖️ 🗳️

And who are the "unfavored" Democrats? Progressives who want to #EndCitizensUnited #TaxtheRich * Ban AI data centers * Regulate crypto "The Super PACs supported one favored Democrat, so that candidate would make it to the midterms and essentially get unfavorable Democrats off the ticket"

California Democrats 😡 What. The. Actual. Fuck. Why do you have essentially NO standards for a "candidate" to get their name on the ballot? Why have you not dumped the jungle primary? You own the state legislature - if this goes wrong, it is on YOUR heads And you better fix this shit in 2027

There is no mystical magic red marker that "turned Ohio red" 🪄 Ohio was, for generations, the epitome of a swing state The GOP seized control through voter suppression, massive Gerrymandering, a criminal GOP leadership & incompetent neo-liberal Democratic leadership It doesn't have to be this way

In these times It's especially important to look for the beauty around us To feed the soul The Pacific Northwest puts on a beautiful show from March to October 💐

Nobody handed the GOP a mystical red magic marker 🪄 Iowa, Minnesota, Wisconsin & the Dakotas have deep progressive history They used to routinely elect progressive Democrats That tradition was crushed by neoliberals - from Bill Clinton to Chuck Schumer But those embers are flaring again 🔥

#MikieSherrill Your mission to "turn the temperature down"🌡️ At Delaney Hall Is a complete abysmal failure And an indictment - of you You simply once again proved That when governors send out the National Guard or State Police They are there to "maintain order" which means Protect ICE

The cracks in the dam are getting wider every day Is this "symbolic"? In a way, yes But you'd be surprised how much political upheaval Is grounded in symbology The 4 Republicans who broke ranks: Thomas Massie (KY) Warren Davidson (OH) Tom Barrett (MI) Brian Fitzpatrick (PA)

UPDATE: The GOP reconciliation bill (with $70 billion for ICE and Border Patrol) has just been updated with a new $350 million slush fund for the regime to unleash Minneapolis-like violence on "uncooperative" cities. A final vote is expected within days, so call Congress NOW to oppose this bill.

Oh, trust me We will fucking tear it down And tear-down day will become a national holiday 🇺🇲 And we'll all sing the anthem

Every city, county & state Needs a voter protection plan Is your resistance group linked up with others, preparing a plan & rehearsing tactics? Primary season is the dry run “With increased tactical force and military presence, our Black and Brown communities bear the weight of their presence”

Hey! #MikieSherrill Tell us again how you sent the New Jersey State Police in To turn the temperature down🌡️ "In one week, the U.S. Press Freedom Tracker documented 30 assaults by officers on journalists near Delaney. ICE doused several photographers with pepper spray and beat them with batons."

Scott Pelley saying it out loud "Bari Weiss was brought in to kill it and is doing exactly that” Everybody get it now? Larry Ellison is a billionaire He doesn't care about CBS losing audience Doesn't care if it totally crashes Like Fox News, CBS is a loss leader The goal was CAPTURE & KILL

Tell us again, Martin About the danger of Moderate White People "For two nights now, a battalion of Sherrill’s New Jersey State Police — who the first-year governor had claimed would “lower the temperature” in Newark — has turned up the heat to 11 🧵

Voter suppression has always been a constant Voter intimidation is, indeed, surging But we will not stand by This was a dry run for November * Did we accurately predict the sites most in need of protection? * Were we successful at minimizing or preventing intimidation? Review Adjust Improve 🗳️

O the horrors! 😳

Amen, sister! ⤵️ After 30 years of neo-liberal, corporate Dems being in charge Are we done listening to Third Way consultants tell us "Don't be too radical 🤫 we need to win swing voters" Are we finally tired of losing? Demand better Demand progressive solutions Demand real change #ChuckChuck

This just makes me happy 🌼

Neo-liberal, Third Way Democrats have been telling us for 25 years to "moderate" So we can capture the swing voters "Don't sound too radical 🤫" Fuck that 😡 Let's try a simple moral code You don't throw vulnerable people under the bus 🚌 Point out the real villains #TaxTheRich #EndBillionaires

The GOP has spent 50 years making it hard to vote Their laws, schemes, and threats typically target people who are * Black & Brown * Poor & working-class * Young Your local resistance group can make a huge difference by simply helping people register to vote Now is the time to get moving! 🗳️ ⚡ 🗳️

It's not wrong to see the parallels between Nazi Germany or Orwell's "1984" And this Regime But here's where the comparisons end ✋ There was never a mass resistance movement in Nazi Germany And we have tools that Orwell couldn't have imagined in 1949 Choose a resistance lane & work it ⚡ 💪 🗳️ ⚖️

Does it matter when we maintain a large protest presence outside a Concentration Camp? Yes It matters in many different ways

"People from all over the world came to help us So it's our turn to pay it back" There's an aspect to "Minnesota Nice" that outsiders do not understand 😏

You might be surprised At just how close the connection between slavery & private prisons is "Before founding the $1.8B private prison corporation CoreCivic in 1967, Terrell Don Hutto ran a cotton plantation the size of Manhattan. There, mostly black convicts were forced to pick cotton 🧵

Why Delaney? Why now? Here's the situation - and what you can do to help (Long 🧵) * Prisoners at Delaney do much of the work to run the facility (cooking, cleaning, repairs) for as little as $1 per day * On May 22, hundreds of prisoners organized a hunger and labor strike, followed by🧵
