Daily Reminder: Social Security is OUR money!

8 Senate Democrats have agreed to vote yes on Republicans’ One Big Beautiful Bill, setting us on a path towards a national healthcare crisis. With so much at stake, we need leaders who won’t be afraid to hold the line. ➡️ Sign the petition opposing any cuts to Medicaid:

I held a shadow hearing in Chicago to see firsthand the violence and cruelty that ICE has been inflicting on our communities. It’s outrageous. We need a humane, comprehensive path forward to reforming our immigration system — NOT this.

“Many of the women say that they were pressured to have unwanted or unnecessary gynecological procedures while in the custody of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement”

End Trump’s Epstein cover-up.

Rough day to be any sort of survivor of sexual violence. Solidarity to all of you, please be kind to yourselves

This this this. No elected official should be able to trade in stocks. @whitehouse.senate.gov has traded $27 million dollars in single stocks (according to NASDAQ). It's not just the GOP, this is an issue across both parties and both houses.

Summers must be removed from his post at Harvard.

I’m in!

Democrats at every level of power could simply repeat "he must resign" over and over and over again. It's what the GOP would do if the situation were reversed. Further erode his power by pushing him to lash out more.

A vote to release the #EpsteinFiles is expected early December! “It’s past time for Congress to restore its role as a check and balance on this administration. That is why I will sign the discharge petition right now to release the Epstein files — justice cannot wait another day.” — Rep. Grinalva 👏

AOC: "It is unconscionable that what we are debating right now is legislation that will give 8 senators over $1 million a piece & we're robbing people of their food assistance & healthcare to pay for it. How can we vote to enrich ourselves by stealing from the American people?"

This is significant www.axios.com/local/chicag...

NEVER FORGET: The GOP House Congress got a VACATION for 2 months, while federal workers got $0 paychecks and 42M Americans didn’t get their SNAP.

#GVerse MoveOn calls for Chuck Schumer @schumer.senate.gov to step down from leadership. “Around 80% of MoveOn members that the group surveyed said that Schumer should quit his leadership position.” It is time to let someone else take the wheel & lead!

Dem Senators aren't for us unless they're for removing Chuck Schumer. Now is the time to highlight corruption in the Dem caucus and clean house. Too many Senate Dems are bought and paid for and will fuck us and our entire democracy for their greed and the dark $$ that controls them.

For the first time all year, Democrats were riding high and the regime was on the ropes. If Senate leadership’s goal was to demobilize and depress rank-and-file Democrats, they could not have played their cards better. This is why we’ve launched the largest primary program that we’ve ever run.

This is news our family and our community needed this morning. I bet you did, too.

Enough is enough. Contact your Democratic senators TODAY and tell them to call for Senator Schumer to step aside as Minority Leader. We desperately need new leadership in the Democratic Party.

Two things: 1. I hope you’re not having a “wonderful” day. I hope you are seething…the red hot kind of seething. 2. I hope you choose to channel that into constructive action; the kind that puts a great deal of distance between you…and thoughts of “what’s the use?!”

Spotify is running ads recruiting more ICE agents to infringe our rights and terrorize our communities, so we’re calling on users to stop paying for or using the app until Spotify stops streaming fascism: indivisible.org/cancel-spoti... #CancelSpotify

Buried in the Big Beautiful Bill were changes to food assistance that demanded “any future change be cost-neutral. Translation: no more benefit increases, even if food prices skyrocket.” The result was “institutionalized hunger.” @kristencrowell.bsky.social www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

I understand why we shut down American airspace for a few days after 9-11 to avoid a repeat attack but imagine shutting down American airspace to avoid releasing the Epstein files.

"The average voter believes a SNAP recipient gets $20/day, more than 3 times the actual amount of $6."

That's murder.

🔥The Senate Republicans are going to be FORCED to work with Senate Democrats to END the shut down after the results of Tuesday‘s elections. I spoke with someone in anonymity that GOP members are receiving MAJOR push-back from their constituents. The Democrats cannot fold on DEFENDING ACA subsidies.

Turns out we could beat the billionaires.

Beshear: Let me be clear. The president has both the funding and the authority to fund snap during a shutdown. In fact, every other president in every other shutdown has done so. People going hungry in this instance is a choice that this president has made.

A local child tax credit of $1,000 would be sufficient to reduce child poverty by 25% across 12 of 14 localities in this study. With a local CTC of $4,000 per child, those same localities in this study could cut child poverty by 50% through the combined effects of federal, state, and local credits.

“We won because we insisted that no longer would politics be something that is done to us. Now it is something that we do.”

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion. The entire bottom 50% of America is worth just $4.2 trillion. Read that back. When 400 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.

After gleefully and illegally plowing over every statute and regulation they don't like—such as by destroying USAID, refusing to enforce CFPB regs, and withholding SNAP funding—the Trump admin has decided 88 FR 8255 is ironclad law that must be ruthlessly enforced to ensure more people go hungry.

The cruelty is the point.

US citizen shot from behind as he warned ICE agents children would be coming to get bus, lawyers say

If you don't want to be a library board member, then join your local Friends of the Library group. They advocate for the library in your community and need people who care deeply about the freedom of information and the right to read.

ICE is now raiding night clubs while continuing to terrorize our communities. This is just the latest case of ICE’s unchecked power. This brutality continues to worsen. ICE is trying to divide communities, they know they can’t pull this off if communities come together to stop them. They fear us.

#Spokane www.khq.com/news/drive-u...

Here in Atlanta yesterday, more than 2,000 people waited in their cars—one woman for 14 hours—for a box of food. The giveaway ended early; there wasn't enough to go around. Multiply this scene by countless others across the country, and you get a sense of how crushing the desperation is right now.

The American people should not pay for protecting pedophiles by going hungry; it is insane!!! #releasethefiles

In a win for the arts and universal basic income, Ireland plans to make permanent a $1,500-a-month pilot program for artists, citing benefits to creativity, mental health, and financial stability.

REPUBLICAN Rep. Turner says Hegseth & Trump gave “not very good answers” about the boat bombings in international waters. (As the UN condemns it) Dozens killed. No evidence that any of this was necessary or justified.

Finally.

Protest is essential, but it's just one component of active organization and mobilization.

Speaker Johnson: “If we had a contingency fund for SNAP we’d use it.” REALITY: There is one, Trump literally just deleted it off the USDA site 🤷🏼 More: www.notus.org/trump-white-...
