St. Charles County Elections Director Kurt Bahr favors the 2025 map because it gives the GOP an opportunity to win seven of Missouri’s eight congressional districts. But he said he values smooth operations of the election over partisan advantage. #moleg #mogov

You got that right, JoCo #VisibilityBrigade!

Here's the truth: Missouri voters did everything required to block the gerrymander. The Supreme Court ruled “It is impossible to say” which map is in effect until a sufficient number of signatures is known. The Secretary of State's own documents already confirm we have enough.

Politicians are spinning this ruling to confuse voters and try to stop our momentum. Don't let them! ⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️

LIVE from Missouri…. It’s The Blue Brief LIVE! We are inviting you to join us THIS Tuesday at 6:30 PM (May 19th) for our first-ever virtual edition of The Blue Brief where a number of guests will provide quick updates. RSVP REQUIRED! events.hovercast.com/e/missouri-d...

@petebuttigieg.bsky.social: "We have an ICE agent who should have been trained not to be in front of a vehicle and never to shoot into a moving vehicle, and yet this happened on [Kristi Noem's] watch. The whole POINT of Homeland Security is to make this country more stable and safe."

👇🏽

@khanna.house.gov & Rep. Thomas Massie move to get a Special Master appointed to compel compliance by the Trump DOJ with the Epstein Files Transparency Act. I've got the latest incl. the big subpoenas out of House Oversight to Epstein’s long-time lawyer and accountant. youtu.be/C3akkwLuk5U?...

“The best thing we can do in this moment is link arms because there are more of us than there are of them. They’re projecting strength but their power is fragile.” - @ezralevin.bsky.social Over 1,000 ICE Out For Good events are happening across the nation this weekend: mobilize.us?tag_ids=2913...

Garcia: For Mr. Wexner, I think it’s important for us to understand why there was such a financial relationship between the two. What services was Jeffrey Epstein providing?

AOC: “I understand that VP Vance believes shooting a young mother of three in the face three times is an acceptable America that he wants to live in, & I do not — That is a fundamental difference between VP Vance & I — I do not believe the American people should be assassinated in the street”

It's actually a very bad thing that we've gone from "sometimes politicians and the government lie" to "you would be naive at best to believe anything the government says"

Mayor Frey: "What makes absolutely no sense to me is to look at a video, see clearly with your own eyes what is happening and try to create a different narrative entirely. They are trying to say that the ICE agent was acting in self-defense and that the victim was a domestic terrorist."

🔥 @timmiller.bsky.social: “You’re telling me he was scared for his life? Are you sh*tting me?? The car is barely moving. He orphaned her child, then called her a ‘f*cking bitch’… it’s not a tough call. This was murder.” Full @thebulwark.com video: youtu.be/oc9gwMDxYAQ?...

@nytimes.com offers an in-depth analysis of the ICE agent shooting a woman in her vehicle. It's a must-watch. Share widely. This was a murderous act. ICE agents are the domestic terrorists. The government is lying. Must watch and share. Stand with Renee Facts matter

Stand with Minneapolis Join us for a peaceful vigil for all victims of ICE Saturday, Jan. 10, at 3:30 p.m. Mill Creek Park, on the Plaza KCMO

#ISayNO to the lies and brutality. And murderous thugs. We must all call out the lies and continue to stand up for our immigrant neighbors. And our rights.

🚨 NEW VIDEO 👇🏽This puts an end to all the lies. Horrific. They were having a calm exchange seconds before he murdered Renee Good, and she was barely moving and clearly avoiding him. Stop the lies.

He didn't shoot her in the head at point blank range because he felt like he was in danger. He shot her in the head at point blank range because he was furious that she wasn't afraid of him. He shot her in the head at point blank range because he felt emasculated.

Today marks 15 years since Gabby Giffords was shot at a constituent meeting, in an attack that killed 6 and wounded 13. I am proud to cosponsor a bipartisan, bicameral resolution to honor the victims and their families today, and recommit to ending gun and political violence.

I think it is probably a bad idea to put clearly unhinged, angry psychopaths in federal law enforcement positions.

Join us tomorrow afternoon for a peaceful vigil followed by the ICE Out for Good rally. 🪧 Saturday, January 10th @ 3:30pm Mill Creek Park in Kansas City, MO

ICE is claiming that the officer feared that Renee Good was about to seriously injure or kill him at this moment.

SHOCK CELL PHONE VIDEO: Renee Good's final words to her murderer: “That’s fine dude, I’m not mad at you.” ICE agent Jonathan Ross after shooting and killing her seconds later: “Fuckin’ bitch.” Via Alpha News

Tina Smith: "I've worked closely with law enforcement in my roles at state and local government, and I have never seen anybody describe as protocol holding a cell phone and taking video while you are simultaneously shooting a gun that ends up killing somebody. It's kind of unbelievable."

“ICE claims in its own mission statement the whole point of the organization is to ‘ensure the safety of the public and our communities.’ In what world does this ensure public safety? I can’t see how a community could possibly be protected by the same people who are actively coming to kill them.”

Fox Producer: Jesse Watters would like to invite you on his show AOC: He has sexualized and harassed me on his show. FP: That’s not true AOC: He accused me of wanting to sleep with Stephen Miller. So why don’t you tell me what you think is acceptable to tell a woman.

Join us Saturday at a peaceful vigil for Renee Nicole Good, and for all victims of ICE. Stand with us in solidarity with Minneapolis and immigrant communities across the country who continue to be targeted and terrorized by ICE. Saturday, January 10th - 3:30pm Mill Creek Park, KCMO

@chrislhayes.bsky.social: “A 37-year-old American citizen, the mother of a young child is dead tonight. She was shot in the face by an agent of the federal government, and that government has spent the day telling despicable lies about her.”

NYT: “In the last 4 months, immigration officers fired on at least 9 people in 5 states + D.C., all while in their vehicles. In each case, officials claimed the agents fired in self-defense, fearing they’d be struck by the vehicle. At least 1 other died.” www.nytimes.com/2026/01/07/u...

You and your wife drop your 6-year-old off at school. You just moved here. You see ICE terrorizing your new neighbors. You film them, as is your legal right. Your wife complies with orders. She is then shot in the head. You still have to pick up your child later today. This could be you.

Politicians are bombarding Missourians with text messages with FALSE information! No signatures have been submitted. No signatures have been declared wrongly collected. Do not fall for these desperate attempts to silence voters and undermine our campaign.

Let's continue to build solidarity by peacefully opposing our tyrant-in-chief at No Kings Day 2.0 on October 18. There are currently over 2,000 events planned nationwide. More details here: https://www.nokings.org

“Mr. Kimmel said he had learned of Mr. Colbert’s cancellation while at a “No Kings” demonstration, a protest against the Trump administration, with his family.”

He’s trying to get her killed…

10 million free school lunches. Governor @katiehobbsaz.bsky.social is putting Arizona’s kids first so they can thrive.

As a former Texas State Rep, let me be clear: LOCKING Rep. Nicole Collier inside the chamber is beyond outrageous. Forcing elected officials to sign “permission slips” & take police escorts to leave? That’s not procedure. That’s some old Jim Crow playbook.

@gavinnewsom.bsky.social: "This guy is trying to get a Nobel Peace Prize? When he's bringing war to the American people? He sent the United States Marines into the United States of America."
