While many of us spend time with our families, many kitchen chairs sit empty across the United States. This regime continues to hurt working people, while ICE rips our communities apart. 2026 will not be another year of mourning. 2026 will be the year we fight back.

Have you been wondering what to get your leftist relative for the holidays? On January 17th, Kat Abughazaleh, Demi Palecek and I invite you to join our massive leftist discussion at the Riviera Theater in Chicago. Get your tickets here: secure.actblue.com/donate/real-...

Today, the SC denied the US Justice Department’s request to lift a judge’s order in October that blocked the deployment of National Guard personnel to Chicago. Saying I wouldn’t deploy to the streets of Chicago was the easiest statement I’ve ever made. We do not want troops in our streets.

Update on the military’s investigation against me. Thank you all for your continued support. youtube.com/shorts/q_Lar...

I’m endorsed by Peace Action, UC Jews for Ceasefire, and Citizens Against AIPAC corruption. Meanwhile, the Democratic Majority for Israel just endorsed my opponent. It’s time to end our military imperialism around the world. It’s time to block the bombs. Never again means never again for all.

No war on Venezuela. Period. youtube.com/shorts/-yyXZ...

My heart goes out to everyone impacted by the Bondi Beach shooting. I stand against antisemitism, Islamophobia, hate, bigotry and violence around the world, and I hope you do the same. We’re all just people, and no one is better than anyone else. youtube.com/shorts/pa602...

Raja Krishnamoorthi is a great example of how some establishment democrats are actually “never Trump” Republicans. We need to get big money out of politics, and we need to make sure people like Raja don’t serve in Washington. youtube.com/shorts/PUwC7...

Hey, Belleville and CU, what are you doing tomorrow? Want to help out a grassroots, progressive campaign for US Congress? I’ll be leading a session of canvassing in Urbana on Wednesday, December 10th from 4-6 PM. At the same time, we’ll have a group knocking doors in Belleville! Let’s do this!

Thank you to Progressive Democrats of America for this incredibly humbling endorsement. I’m excited to fight for change alongside you. youtube.com/shorts/A7mr2...

Pete Hegseth is a predator. Pete Hegseth is a war criminal. Pete Hegseth is a murderer. Pete Hegseth must be impeached. This entire regime must be impeached.

ICE pepper balled Rep Adelita Grijalva this week. To every member of ICE, I want you to know this: We know what you’re doing and we will not let you get away with it. You will be the prosecuted for your crimes. You will face justice for your attacks on our communities. youtube.com/shorts/X9aEu...

It was an honor to attend Downstate Forward PAC’s fundraiser on Thursday evening, and great to see so many friends there. For those who don’t know, Downstate Forward is helping many progressive candidates run for local office this election cycle. It’s time to elect candidates who fight for workers.

You probably already know, but the Supreme Court upheld the Texas gerrymander. The super racist Texas gerrymander. This map ensures many Texas citizens will be placed in electoral districts based on their race. This violates the US constitution. youtube.com/shorts/rXqkg...

On Sep 2nd, Hegseth ordered a second strike on a destroyed boat to kill two survivors. If we accept the premise that the US is at war with Venezuela, then the no quarter order is a war crime. If you don’t, and I don’t, every strike is just murder without due process. youtube.com/shorts/L0Aja...

If Spotify’s pushing ICE ads, why do you still have a subscription? #SpotifyWrapped is the perfect time to drop them.

Our campaign’s momentum is surging, and it’s all because of you. youtube.com/shorts/9feA7...

On September 2, Pete Hegseth ordered a second strike on an alleged drug boat in the Caribbean. This is called a “no quarter” order, which violates Article 23 of The Hague Convention. In short, Pete Hegseth is a war criminal. youtube.com/shorts/NZU0D...

Today is a day to give thanks. It’s also a day to remember our history. We didn’t start the fire, but we can either be part of the solution or part of the problem.

It may not be Thanksgiving yet, but I want you to know that I’m thankful for you. youtube.com/shorts/naW6j...

"Just following orders is no excuse for war crimes." Congressional Candidate and Army Vet @dylanthomasblaha.bsky.social told @deanobeidallah.bsky.social about members of the military disobeying illegal orders.

I stand with Senator Mark Kelly. US service members must disobey unlawful orders. youtube.com/shorts/K3voa...

Last week, we called on Congress to remove this regime. Read my full article here: dylanthomasblaha.substack.com/p/a-call-to-...

This holiday season, let’s break the system that isn’t working for working people. Please join me in a mass blackout of American mega corporations. youtube.com/shorts/rJBjO...

We didn’t get the chance to meet @aoc.bsky.social while we were in DC calling for the impeachment, conviction, and removal of this regime, but it was incredible to read the messages outside her office. Thank you for being a fighter for workers. I hope I can be there to fight for them with you.

Congress, this is on you. If you won’t impeach him, step down and we will do it for you.

Most heroes don’t wear capes. It was an honor to meet Michael Fanone and I’m excited to fight for our democracy alongside him.

Impeach. Convict. Remove. Thank you to Citizens’ Impeachment for hosting this press conference! youtube.com/shorts/xIf-3...

Today, we said no to tyranny, as we called for Congress to impeach, convict and remove Donald Trump. This has gone on for long enough

Dem lawmakers released a video reminding military service members that it is their duty to disobey unlawful orders. In response, Trump accused them of sedition, “punishable by DEATH.” It’s time to impeach, convict and remove Donald Trump and every fascistic leader of this extremist government.

Never again means never again for all. No more genocide. No more endless wars. No more arming war criminals. It’s time to use our taxpayer money to invest in our communities.

A lot of people ask me why I’m such a staunch defender of human rights and civil rights. Here is my answer. #humanrights youtube.com/shorts/TnUiO...

Thank you to Mediapart for this interview. It’s an honor to be interviewed by the French media. Our movement is international!

When the military forced transgender service members to medically retire, the Air Force denied early retirement benefits to all transgender service members with 15 to 18 years of military experience. This is completely unacceptable. #lgbtqia youtube.com/shorts/Vhyg2...

Trump wants to invade Venezuela for their oil, and the House will vote on the release of the Epstein files next week. Let’s talk about the two pieces of news I haven’t covered this week. youtube.com/shorts/3ne22...

It was awesome to watch the Woke Mountain Boys play at the University YMCA in support of the local Immigrant Relief Fund. There is honor in immigration, and I will always fight for our immigrant communities.

American healthcare is a disaster. The fix is Medicare for All. youtube.com/shorts/_Vdph...

The criminal justice system is broken. America must rid itself of a for-profit prison system that prioritizes monetary gain over human reform. We must address the root causes of violence, like poverty. Crime goes down when people's basic needs are met.

Today, we said no to endless wars. We said no to ICE in our streets. We said no to the constant attacks on veterans who risked their lives for this country. youtube.com/shorts/QIqUv...

Happy Veterans Day, fellow veterans. On this day, I ask you to remember what it meant to raise your right hand and say those words. If we don’t stand up for what’s right, we will lose to this fascist, white nationalist movement. Thank you for your service 🇺🇸

Tuesday tidings! Joining @zerlinamaxwell.bsky.social this AM: Dean Obeidallah Show Host @deanobeidallah.bsky.social, IL-13 Congressional Candidate @dylanthomasblaha.bsky.social & IL-HD-13 Candidate Staff Sgt. Demi Palecek! ☎️ 866-997-4748 📻 @siriusxmprog.bsky.social Ch. 127 siriusxm.us/Zerlina

If you’re looking for a Democrat who will fight for working people, rather than caving to billionaires and corporate interests, look no further. Thank you to Russell Payne from Salon for the interview! #affordability #accountability

If you won’t fight to stop Republicans from causing healthcare premiums to skyrocket, in exchange for tax cuts for the wealthy, what will you fight for? This is exactly why we need to primary feckless, spineless Democrats. They serve the corporations and billionaires - not the working class.

Thanks, Senate Dems. You never fail to let us down. youtube.com/shorts/3b3bc...

This regime continues its war on working families, but we can, and will, fight back. #families #snap youtube.com/shorts/z8KMr...

We need to stop fighting between left and right and start fighting against the real problem: the 1%’s war on working people. They want us to hate each other. They feed on our anger. It’s time for working people to take this country back. America belongs to the workers, not the billionaires.

The SC allowed Trump to enforce passport restrictions targeting transgender people. Let’s be clear, this decision will put American citizens in harm’s way, and it is an obvious sign that our checks and balances are broken. #humanrights #lgbtqia youtube.com/shorts/hIr1F...
