Commissioner Violet Edwards does NOT have a primary (May 19th) opponent. On November 3, 2026, vote for her. But there is much to learn. Now. "The position also has appointing authority for one of three members on 66 of the state’s 67 counties’ board of registrars..." www.al.com/news/huntsvi...

"Indivisible District 5 and Huntsville 50501 joined the National Impeachment Coalition to join the Impeach Trump National Day of Lobbying on Tuesday. The groups sent three representatives to speak with Rep. Dale Strong’s office, while at least 50 people protested..." www.al.com/news/2026/02...

Big victory for the American people. And another crushing defeat for the wannabe King. www.cnbc.com/2026/02/20/s...

Via @fischler.bsky.social and @ashleymurray.bsky.social: In a 6-3 decision authored by Chief Justice John Roberts, the court said Congress alone holds the power to tax in almost all circumstances.

Tariffs are taxes. Send this to all your MAGA friends.

Congress is pushing through bills that could exclude millions of eligible U.S. citizens from voting. Call your Senator now and demand they vote NO on any bill that makes it harder for us to vote.

Did you know that Senator Tuberville has an office in the same Lanier Ford Building as Congressman Dale Strong? I didn't. It's amazing what you learn when you show up.

Look up "Rebel Loon". Creativity is one of our talents, which empowers us all. Thanks again to all that showed up, and even those honking their horns as they drove by.

Thanks to all that showed up tonight for the protest at Congressman Dale Strong's office. More pictures tomorrow. @indivisible5al.bsky.social @50501alabama.bsky.social #Resist

2101 Clinton Ave. is Dale Strong's office in the Lanier Ford building. (On Clinton and you can see it from Memorial.) Notice it says "funeral attire". That sounds interesting. TOMORROW

Well, whether or not Senator Katie Britt showed up at the Mars Music Hall in Huntsville to speak to the Chamber of Commerce...we showed up. She supposedly cancelled her appearance. So the protest was cancelled. Some of us showed up anyway.

OH! LOOK! Hot off the presses. "Rep. Napoleon Bracy, D-Mobile,.. “I’ve never been in a committee meeting or a public hearing where we’ve had more questions for a speaker than for the actual bill sponsor,” Bracy said, drawing applause from some of the people who filled the committee room."

BREAKING: After we sued, DHS withdrew a subpoena seeking personal information about our client who criticized DHS' treatment of a man seeking asylum. This is a win not just for our client, but for everyone’s First Amendment right to speak out without fear of government retaliation.

Killer. Alabama is blessed with some of the best political commentators in America.

If you don't think this has everything to do with Georgia electing 2 #Democrats to their PSC...think again. "...key state board that oversees utility rates and powerful companies, including Alabama Power. A bill...would shift...members on the Public Service Commission from elected to appointed..."

Did you know our very own Senator -- Katie Britt -- chairs the Homeland Security Subcommittee in the Senate? Here is your chance to let her know how you feel about ICE.

Do you think this got our Congressman's attention? "Republican incumbents outraised by a Democrat: GOP Reps. Dale Strong (Ala.)" You need to think about this. A Democrat out-raised an incumbent Republican. IN #ALABAMA!!! Don't sit back and relax. Get fired up. Get involved. WIN! #Politics

If you have nothing better to do, you can listen to your Congressman ramble on for 12 minutes on a right-wing radio show. And proof-positive that "politics makes strange bedfellows"... The show runs an ad for Alabama A&M at the start.

Trump doubles down on his racist video: I looked at the first part and it was really about voter fraud... Then I gave it to the people. Generally, they look at the whole thing, but I guess somebody didn't.

We condemn President Trump’s racist depiction of former President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama, which reflects a long and shameful history in this country of using racism to silence, demean, and divide.

One of the reasons Trump keeps trying to distract you with outrageous monkey memes: He keeps losing.

We're told we don't do this enough. But running a Party does take money and we never have enough. (Not on a local level. Never.) So, if you can, and if you care about your local politics, here is where you donate to us -- The Madison County Democratic Party. Every little bit helps. Thanks.

That's more police officers than serve on the Minneapolis Police Department's force. And (according to the media we listen to) will still leave ICE/Border Patrol with about 2,000 agents in MSP. Yes, it does sound like an invasion force instead of a law-enforcement action when you know the numbers.

#Huntsville #Alabama "According to a recent Realtor.com analysis, Huntsville ranks #2 in the nation among metros where institutional investors are purchasing the largest share of homes. That should be a wake-up call for every civic leader, builder, and real estate professional...."

4 more from the #ICEout protest in #Huntsville, #Alabama. Again, it was a brutally cold day (for the South). In the teens with a brutal wind out of the North. It even snowed a couple of time. Huntsville showed up @indivisible5al.bsky.social @50501alabama.bsky.social @aldemocrats.bsky.social

It was a bitterly cold day, here in #Huntsville, #Alabama. It started in the high teens but the wind was relentless. And yes, we even had snow flurries. Huntsville showed up anyway. #ICEOut @indivisible5al.bsky.social @50501alabama.bsky.social @democrats.org @aldemocrats.bsky.social

No statement from him (yet) on the arrest of Don Lemon. "Jack Smith weaponized his role as DOJ special counsel to wage lawfare against President Trump," Strong said. "In both phony cases, Smith mobilized the full force of our justice system to prosecute and imprison the President..."

Tomorrow!!! Sorry for the late notice. Bundle Up!!!

The date for the next No Kings Day is set. But this is a save the date, not a “sit back and wait.” 🧵

The Boss has something to say.

Hey! That's us!!! "Take the 5th Congressional District, for example, where there are three solid candidates – Andrew Sneed, Candace Dollar Duvieilh and Jeremy Devito – vying for the nomination to take on Dale Strong." Remember, the Democratic Primary is May 19th. VOTE

At the risk of stating the obvious... That long thread below this post (the "make *sure* you're registered" post) is how you figure out which districts you're in (Congressional, State House, State Senate, School, etc.) so you'll know who you can vote for and check them out. Have a look at the...

Are you registered to vote in Alabama? Are you *sure*? Republicans have been known to purge voter rolls. Even if you're sure, let's check anyway and make sure. Because you'll have to do this again. (Trust me.) Go here. (And then keep reading this thread.)

Here is a list of Democratic candidates that have qualified to run for office in the State of Alabama. You'll need to know what Districts you live in in order to see who you can vote for. How do you do that? Look at your voter registration card. Need more help? Stick around. We'll show you.

Fareed's "take" is one of the dependable highlights of the week. Trump is doing immense damage to America. Not only at home, but abroad. You *must* vote this Fall in the General Election. You need to start now, by choosing a Democratic candidate in Alabama's Primary Election on May 19, 2026.

I love the "small-towness" of this article. Kudos to Candice Duvieilh for reaching out rural Democrats. (BTW, a lot of our candidates *are* rural Democrats.)

Do you know who Fred Gray is? You should. Mr. Gray was 26 years old when he started representing Martin Luther King, Jr. and the NAACP. Oddly, so was Jonathan Daniels (see the previous post) when he gave his life for the cause. America needs you, young people. The Democratic Party needs you.

Did you watch @maddow.bsky.social this week? If you did, you know how an Episcopal priest wound up becoming a saint, right here in Alabama. And how it ties in to today. If you missed it, listen at the link -- or find it at your favorite podcast provider. Nobody tells stories better than Rachel.

Details matter. "Notably missing from that package is the spending bill that funds the Department of Homeland Security, which was expected to be a part of that minibus. Britt is the chair of the appropriations subcommittee that funds DHS. " Alabama Senator Katie Britt: 202-224-5744 D.C. office

Hey! Guess what tomorrow is? That's right. The third Thursday. Jan. 1 was a Thursday. This snuck up on me. Remember, Alabama is in the qualifying season. Qualifying for political office in the State of Alabama will end on January 23, 2026. So this will be an important meeting. See you there!
