For the general public, Congressman Josh Riley of Ithaca has a completely empty schedule for all of August. Yet, we've learned that Riley has a private meeting - ticket holders only - at Ithaca College Emerson Suites from 8-11 tomorrow morning. Why is Josh Riley only holding private meetings?

The imagery isn’t violent. What is being done to people in Gaza is violent. And Congressman Josh Riley is too cowardly to meet with people who have a problem with his pro-violence agenda.

Ithaca environmentalists take note: The old coal-fired power plant on Cayuga Lake has been taken over by TeraWulf, with deceptive “predominantly zero carbon” language in its lease. In fact, the lease allows for up to 82.74% of the energy to come from burning fossil fuels. This is for generative AI.

Why won’t Congressman Josh Riley of Ithaca talk about the link between cryptocurrency data centers and increased utility bills at NYSEG? Why does he keep scapegoating foreigners instead? #cryptocurrency #nyseg #Ithaca www.joshrileywatch.com/podcast/josh...

Unlike Stalin, it seems Trump has no backstabbers in his politburo let alone individuals dwelling in honest reality. #resist #mepolitics #VoteBlue

NEW: Wearing masks, no ID, unmarked & blacked out cars, refusing to say what agency they’re from and using profanity with any press & public nearby. This was at 14th & R in Washington DC, this morning (Sunday). What the hell is happening to the US? (🎥 Dan Rosenzweig-Ziff, Washington Post)

Josh Riley accepted lobbyists’ dirty money to pay for his vacation in Israel to meet the Israeli President at the same time that the Israeli government was assassinating journalists and starving children in Gaza. Josh Riley tried to keep this trip secret, so Ithaca wouldn’t know. #Ithaca

Ithaca, it's time to tell our Democratic member of Congress, Josh Riley, to stop acting like a Republican! On Friday at 7:00 PM, gather in protest of Josh Riley's secret trip to Israel, paid for by lobbyists, to meet with the President of Israel

The most common response to the revelation that Congressman Josh Riley took a secret trip to Israel while that country was killing journalists and starving children... ...is that Democrats in New York's 19th congressional district want to see a primary challenge in 2026 against Josh Riley.

A year ago, Ithacans were putting signs in their lawns supporting Josh Riley's campaign for Congress. Last night, a large group of progressive Ithacans marched down Seneca Street chanting "Fuck Josh Riley!" That's how badly Josh Riley has disappointed Ithaca. ithacavoice.org/2025/08/prot...

Congressman Josh Riley is representative of what’s wrong with the Democratic Party. Democrats perceive their own party as unwilling to stand up to Donald Trump. The Tompkins County Democratic Committee needs to pay attention to this. #Ithaca #JoshRiley #Democrats apnews.com/article/ap-p...

Ithaca: Ten square miles of reality, surrounded by fascism #ithaca #fascism www.redbubble.com/i/t-shirt/It...

Why did Congressman Josh Riley of Binghamton vote for Donald Trump's legislation allowing the federal government to bail out failed cryptocurrency crooks? Why is Josh Riley protecting cryptocurrency schemes that defraud working people in Upstate New York?

ICE arrested Job Garcia while he was running errands in LA. Job is a US citizen, a scholar, and a brilliant photographer. He’s also my friend. But none of that should determine his humanity. ICE must release Job Garcia immediately.

“People who live outside the city drive cars to work. This is far more dangerous than riding the subway. Last year there were ten murders in the NYC subway system, with well over a billion total rides taken. During the same time period, there were 253 traffic fatalities in New York City.“

Ithaca New York tells Donald Trump to keep his hands off habeas corpus. If habeas corpus rights are suspended, anybody can be thrown in prison without trial and without explanation. There is no rebellion. There is no invasion. It’s insane to even suggest suspending habeas corpus.

This is what a police state looks like.

Today, Donald Trump declared that he intends to set up Alcatraz as a new prison designed to defy the orders of federal judges: "We will no longer be held hostage to criminals, thugs, and judges that are afraid to do their job and allow us to remove criminals, who came into our Country illegally."

I’m reflecting tonight on Donald Trump’s order to create a prison on Alacatraz, on US soil, holding people without trial. Congressman Josh Riley is not talking about this. Will he? I think he will when we become the district we want him to represent. www.joshrileywatch.com/josh-rileys-...

"We will not be silent," the sign said at the protest in Ithaca New York. The sign cited the White Rose Society, in which Sophie Scholl and her brother Hans Scholl wrote earnest pamphlets against Nazi abuses, and were tortured and executed for it. Protest while you still can. #WhiteRoseSociety

Exactly why should I be impressed by Senator Angus King's floor speech yesterday? As we've come to expect this year, it was all talk. Senator King is not only failing to act to stop the Trump agenda in the Congress... he keeps voting to speed it along. audacityspace.org/angus-kings-... #MEPolitics

The smartest politicians recognize that the simple act of listening goes a long way.

“Because if the Republican politicians won’t stand up to a dictator, then I guess I will.”

People came out to Rockland’s Chapman Park knowing they would stand in a cold, driving Maine rain. Why? Here’s Answer #1. More answers coming in responses to this post. Watch them… if one rings true I hope you’ll join us Saturdays at noon. youtube.com/shorts/P7ZRs... #Resist #Maine #MEPolitics

We’re on the list he’s going down.

On the bridge on route 13 in Ithaca we stood together in protest against the fascism of Donald Trump. “Save our democracy,” said the sign next to me. “Have courage. It’s contagious!" ✳️This Saturday at noon on the Ithaca Commons we will stand together again.✳️ JOIN US there. #Ithaca

I’ll be hammering this: Next week the Deploying American Blockchains Act of 2025, H.R. 1664, comes up for a vote in the US House. This is one of the most corrupt pieces of legislation I can remember. Cryptocurrency is the corruption that fuels fascism. Call your rep to say: Vote NO! #crypto #corrupt

Congressman Josh Riley of Ithaca faces a moral test next week. Will he vote for HR 1664, the Deploying American Blockchains Act of 2025? #Blockchain = #cryptocurrency = biggest medium for #oligarch #bribery of Donald Trump. Will Josh Riley do the right thing? www.joshrileywatch.com/podcast/will...

It’s been 2 days since Donald Trump declared he will not obey a unanimous decision of the US Supreme Court. It’s been 2 days since Donald Trump announced he is going to deport American citizens to concentration camps. Congressman Josh Riley from Ithaca has done and said nothing about it. #JoshRiley

Of course Trump wants more from the law firms. Once you give in to Trump, he won’t stop, not even when he’s fitted you for a collar. There are no deals with Trump. There’s only resistance or capitulation.

Donald Trump disobeys the Supreme Court & announces he will start sending American citizens to concentration camps in El Salvador. Senator Kirsten Gillibrand @kirstengillibrand.bsky.social has said NOTHING & done NOTHING. Why? Does resisting #fascism not match her talking points? #KirstenGillibrand

Christian Nationalism gives me the creeps. www.redbubble.com/i/sticker/Ch...
