Single-payer healthcare for MA makes sense for the humanity & health of our people, and our fiscal health as a Commonwealth. “In 2026, the state is likely to spend about $126 billion on health care. If single-payer were implemented in 2026, we could eliminate $55 billion of unnecessary spending.”

Any member of Congress who is against impeachment right now is completely disingenuous about their love and loyalty to the Unites States, her people, and the Constitution. We need an impeachment and removal NOW.

Just want to be abundantly and loudly clear the the U.S. needs to get the F out of Iran ASAP. No Wars abroad. No wars at home. No concentration camps. No more authoritarian nightmare. We need to lead our own communities by taking care of each other, prioritizing the most vulnerable.

WAR PROFITEERS: “Here’s how this loop works— happening right before our eyes… Trump uses our tax💰to buy weapons from companies the Trumps own… $1.5 TRILLION in defense spending to bomb the Middle East & build luxury real estate on the rubble.” (From @cfh_unfiltered)

Good morning from Boston where it is actually snowing right now. 🌨

WE DID IT!!!! EVERY SINGLE SEAT IN THE STATE HOUSE OR EXECUTIVE LEVEL IS CHALLENGED BY A DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATE!! I LOVE YOU, SOUTH CAROLINA 💙

I've been long beating the drum of "Massachusetts isn't as Democratic, democratic, or awesome as we all think it is." We can and should do better in the Commonwealth. www.masslive.com/westernmass/...

Hello from Boston #NoKings

It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford. It’s about priorities.

Are you all hungry? Because these rich are not going to eat themselves.

While hardworking Americans struggle to afford groceries, President Trump and Republicans are pouring billions of taxpayer dollars into a war with Iran instead of lowering costs here at home. At a time when families need relief, this is a clear misplacement of priorities.

Bernie Sanders to force disapproval votes over U.S. arms sales to Israel

ICE continues to ignore our own laws about protecting children, and the result is minor children are often left alone or with no contact from their parents when ICE makes arrests. This administration is EVIL. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

It is my honor and pleasure to be in community with my neighbors here at the Massachusetts State House Immigrants Day. There was a line to get in the building. The largest hearing room is beyond fire capacity. Bay Staters are here for each other. #CourageOverFear

MAGA Tech Bros are BLACKMAILING our state. They're threatening to cripple our state. It's part of their backlash for the people taxing millionaires to fund education and fixing the MBTA.

transitics.substack.com/p/trump-admi... The Trump admin is claiming that trans ppl traveling are committing fraud if their documents don't match their "biological sex at birth." This is discriminatory, invasive, and is the next step in using ICE for targeting people to send to concentration camps.

I just want to be really clear. The SAVE act is about preventing women from voting. It also has the clear benefit (to Trump & allies) of preventing a bunch of other people from voting, too. They can't win on their ideas. www.contrariannews.org/p/the-save-a...

If we made the green energy transition this war would be unthinkable and these authoritarians wouldn’t be in power — not in the US, not in Iran, not in Saudi Arabia, not in Russia. Hydrocarbons are killing our freedom and just plain killing us.

www.contrariannews.org/p/is-trump-b... Not only are these "detention centers" concentration camps, there have already been at least 45 people who have died in ICE custody since Jan last year.

Elizabeth Warren: "I am a hard no on a supplemental. This is not a war the American people want us to engage in. This is not a war that makes us safer ... No. No more money. The only thing Congress has the power to do is to stop actions like this through the power of the purse."

No. Might does not make right.

It's past 6:00pm Eastern Time. ICE once again failed to release congressionally-mandated detention statistics on its typical biweekly schedule. The last update was on February 12, 2026. Four weeks ago. www.ice.gov/detain/deten...

Emmanuel Damas is at least the 10th person to die in ICE custody this year. www.bostonglobe.com/2026/03/05/m...

If it’s true that the United States bombed an elementary school and killed scores of children it is an unfathomable crime. I have never been more disgusted to be an American.

When are we getting our War Powers Vote?!

Let's remember that we had an international agreement that was in place to prevent Iran's nuclear program from creating nuclear weapons. It was working. Trump withdrew from it in 2018. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joint_C... This is was all avoidable.

No votes on ANYTHING untill we vote on the War Powers Resolution.

We aren't taking care of our own people. We are attacking and terrorizing our own neighbors. And Trump keeps provoking war and terror across the world. It must be stopped, and we must stop it.

Remember when Congress authorized the use of force against Iran? Me neither. Any U.S. attack on Iran would violate U.S. and international law.

Very glad to be going to a fundraiser Saturday for my member of Congress @ayannapressley.bsky.social, one of the few in MA who are publicly opposed to AIPAC money! @trackaipac.com

"Christian nationalists are more likely than other Americans to support political violence" -PRRI Survey on Christian Nationalism. prri.org/research/map...

The U.K. arrested a (former) prince for misconduct in office. South Korea sentenced their former President to life in prison for insurrection. To my fellow Americans--we can demand accountability.

i think this more than anything is what miller wants. vast detention camps with all of the suffering and death that means.

The Globe stating "As the population ages, researchers are urgently studying ways to reduce dementia because it continues to exact a heavy toll in the nation." Is THE understatement of the decade.

No Kings includes Draft Kings

Omg he brought out Ricky!!

I love that Bad Bunny is connecting different music to all the different life celebrations we share!

Epstein survivors released a Super Bowl ad demanding justice and accountability. Years later, survivors are still waiting while institutions stay silent. This isn’t closure. It’s failure. Watch the ad. Share it everywhere. Demand justice. Will NBC censor this one?

We need to remember that racism, poverty, and militarism are all symptoms of the sick system that is capitalism--which is a system that profiteers on that which is necessary for survival, and thrives when people are divided and disempowered by race and class.

Bezos isn't destroying the Washington Post because it isn't profitable. He's destroying the Washington Post because he's calculated that a robust free press threatens the ability of his class to warp society around their interests

Happy birthday to my Congresswoman @pressley.house.gov!
