MAJOR: Twin Cities Tenants joins five labor unions, together repping 25,900 members, to launch a rent strike drive, vowing to withhold rent March 1 if @governorwalz.mn.gov fails to deliver an eviction moratorium and rent relief. If launched, this would be the largest US rent strike in 100+ years.

My brother is at Mobile Mardi Grad and he reports that the gross shitty parading society that always does RW political stuff essentially stayed entirely out of national politics except a minor anti-Ilhan Omar sign and, I barely believe this, anti-ICE throw pillows. This actually blows my mind.

I think it's important to note that Trump's brazen power grab in Texas forced Dems to take a big swing in blue states to redistrict and IT WORKED! How many cycles Ds complained about wonky R districts and instead of whining this time they did something about it! It's good to run on big court reform

An entire federal government run by dudes who look like they got permabanned from Clarendon Ballroom in 2014 for calling the bouncer a racial slur

Prosecute everyone involved in this criminal enterprise.

Also we need to expand the House of Representatives

In 1854, after watching the federal government deploy 2000 federal troops and spend $40,000 sending Anthony Burns back into slavery, Boston's Amos Adams Lawrence said “we went to bed one night old-fashioned, conservative, Compromise Union Whigs and waked up stark mad Abolitionists.”

Yesterday morning kids were sent running from their bus stop in panic because ICE showed up. This guy at today’s ICE Out of Lindenwold protest is a must watch 😭. @maddow.bsky.social

My account is primarily brass bands now.

Another fat fucking L for the northwestern administration.

She suggested coffee and breakfast on NYE, recognizing that I’d want to catch the bama playoff game at noon. We got back together in the afternoon, got dinner, canceled our evening plans and watched jeopardy together.

I mean this is just the "should we hug the flag or not?" argument again. "Restore the international rules-based order but without the hypocrisy" is the same thing as a new order, just framed differently.

It's crazy how so many people have forgotten the politics of immigration reform during the Obama administration. He did ramp up deportations. It was part of an overall policy aimed at major, immigrant-friendly reforms. It *almost* worked, too.

The fact that I get texts from “Chuck Schumer” and - I can’t believe I’m typing this in the year of our gourde 2026 - JAMES FUCKING CARVILLE is enough to drive anyone away from giving to the DNC.

The California state fire marshal was legally obliged to release the single-stair report on January 1. A month later, it's nowhere in sight, and I'm hearing the draft recommends doing the bare minumum. State legislators should just pass the code update themselves. calmatters.org/housing/2026...

I’ve seen the first two thirds of Dirty Dancing and if there’s one thing I learned it’s that Americans want sexy dancing punished.

🎵 I have read a fiery gospel writ in burnished rows of steel 🎶

Rep. Delia Ramirez to DHS officials: "I have as much respect for you as I do for the last white men who put on masks to terrorize communities of color. I have no respect for the inheritors of the Klanhood and the slave patrol. Those activities were criminal and so are yours."

CONFIRMED BY SCIENCE: anyone more online than me is a loser phone addict and everyone less online than me are basic underdeveloped normies

This is torture. The US is torturing children. Children whose words and whose art contain infinitely more humanity than the people keeping them detained.

Two straight blowouts, why should the AFC get an automatic Super Bowl berth?

Fun fact: The divorce scene in the Kid Rock show was an actual divorce showing a wife leaving her conservative husband.

This was a little over a year ago

give me the ferments and free my soul I’m only eatin yogurt at the super bowl I’m RFK

Good morning. The President of the United States was in the middle of the most serious child sex trafficking ring of the last quarter century. He is referenced not a dozen times in the case files. Not 100 times. Not 1,000 times. He’s referenced 38,000 times.

Everyone telling you we need to be incrementalist about ICE are lying to you or worse

Tech companies say our devices aren’t listening when we don’t tell them to, but Progressive keeps introducing new commercials very specifically targeting ways in which I’m turning into my dad. The PG&E guy I talked to was really chill, fwiw.

Look it’s a special and a D incumbent and whatever but I tell you what—Cassidy can’t survive a 30 point D shift.

What is @replsimon.bsky.social’s position on tribunals and life sentences for everyone at DHS?

Ironically this is maybe the least pretty week in the Bay Area in 3 years.

Accountability without prosecutions is not accountability.

imo a core function of a post-DHS org for federal immigration, customs, and border stuff needs to be "clerks not cops"

LOL eat shit

Spoke to the largest newspaper serving the East Bay about why I'm running and what I'm fighting for in #CA14.

Swear to god, ICE could just announce they're leaving a city but not leave and the media will just stop covering that city completely even though ICE never left. It's what ICE and the media did with LA and they're doing it with Minneapolis too

JUSTIFIED “FUCK ICE” CHANTS #AEWDynamite

okay look, i support whatever she could plausibly say she's going to do here, but it would be really, really funny if It Happened tomorrow

Democrats need to run on a “tough but fair” path to citizenship that is in practice a massive liberalization of the current process.

Hero shit

I love this guy, very calming using historical analogy reading his city council for filth.

i agree with this, as long as by “take accountability” you mean “prepare your horrid souls for damnation because you will find no quarter on this Earth”

this really is the crux of it all, you know? yeah. jefferson didn't. but i do. and i'm alive. and i can act.

one thing the trump era has made clear, i think, is that the american people themselves are far more committed to the values of our founding documents than our elites

[at the blood bank] "oh no, I just labeled all these blood bags incorrectly." "so they aren't type As?" "no they're all typos."

if youre a supreme court justice you shouldnt be allowed to make a single cent outside of your government paycheck

The clowning of northwestern by implication continues apace

People say we can't compare this to the Third Reich because of the atrocities but we only found out about the atrocities after the fact when it was all said and done and we're not done with this yet so I am sure the worst stomach churning shit has yet to be revealed.
