🧵 Good morning! The MILLION POSTCARD PROTEST will be held @ the beginning of December. Send homemade postcards to DC three days in a row to send a big message in big PILES of mail. Read this 🧵 for full details, and please REPOST. 🩵🩵🩵 Dec 2: To GOP Senate Dec 3: To KLeav Dec 4: To Mike Johnson 1/7

Here is the breakdown on the new Utah maps: District 1: D +10 District 2: R =12 District 3: R + 19 District 4: R + 14 Currently, there are 6 Democrats that have filed to run across all 4 districts, but most will be switching districts in the next day or two. More expected to announce this week.

Yesterday, when Bovino announced ICE would be returning to Little Village today, some of us donated and fundraised to buy out street vendors in the neighborhood. This morning, volunteers hit the streets at 6:30 am, looking for vendors to buy out. Tamales make an excellent breakfast.

So he’s saying all the tariff money we took in is gone and we won’t be able to pay it back. There was always a possibility he could lose this lawsuit and have to refund the tariff money. We didn’t prepare for that possibility? He’s running the govt like he ran his casinos.

ICE has been targeting young kids for months, separating families and instilling fear. Tell Congress to pass legislation ensuring no child is arrested without a warrant and coerced to give up their rights by immigration agents.

Government is shut down. Chaos in airports. 42 million going hungry. 24 million face skyrocketing healthcare costs. Economy in turmoil. And the president of the United States is in the Fox broadcast booth calling plays for a football game.

Rachel Maddow warns: if Republicans let ACA subsidies expire, millions will face massive premium spikes. A WV couple’s plan could jump from $300 to $4,700 a month. The #GOPHealthCareShutdown isn’t fiscal discipline—it’s a war on working families’ health and wallets. #USDemocracy #Voices4Victory

NEW: EXCLUSIVE: I spoke to sources at FBI and DOJ that reviewed the Epstein files. It’s worse than the photos. I’ll let you know what they said today at 3:30 PM PT / 6:30 PM ET on @meidastouch.com. Link to show: www.youtube.com/live/hEi77Ib...

As millions face the first lapse in SNAP benefits in U.S. history, one group has been frozen out entirely: Ukrainian war refugees. All Rise News viewed some of the letters refugees received before the suspension with little public attention. Full story www.allrisenews.com/p/ukrainian-...

“We have rarely witnessed such brutality erupt into public view like it has in Chicago,” writes Michael Woolf, senior minister of Lake Street Church of Evanston. “For me, this is a spiritual emergency, and it means putting our bodies on the line in order to stop deportations.”

And now, if you read the devastating piece about what Venezuelan deportees endured at the El Salvador torture prison, read what incarcerated U.S. citizens endure in Alabama prisons. State prisons in the U.S. that are massive systems of human rights violations. www.theguardian.com/film/2025/oc...

"Store employees are now required to smile if they are within 10 feet of a shopper. They also must make eye contact with and wave to or greet the customer. If they’re within four feet, the employee should ask how the customer’s day is going or if they need help." 🙄 Won't stop the boycott, y'all.

Concepts of a plan of a scheme of a shakedown

🚨BREAKING: A civil rights organization sued the Trump administration Saturday over a new policy barring nonprofits from helping new U.S. citizens register to vote. The lawsuit calls the policy part of a “broader effort to ensure that new Americans cannot exert their democratic will on the nation.”

it is darkly humorous that after all these years, the Republican health insurance plan ends up being to end health insurance

This is, unsurprisingly, nonsensical. Is he suggesting eliminating health insurance and giving people a few thousand dollars instead? And then when they get a cancer diagnosis they just go bankrupt? He is so unserious. That's why we are shut down and Americans know it.

Not ICE. Border Patrol. They’re wearing Border Patrol uniforms with clear Border Patrol patches on them. There are many videos of ICE officers doing outrageous stuff but a lot of the absolute worst videos are of Border Patrol, who are basically Bovino and Miller’s most aggressive tool right now.

FOX: So you would ask Speaker Johnson to recall the House? GOP REP. KEVIN KILEY: Not only would I, I've asked him to do it repeatedly. There's no justification. And honestly, it's Republican voters who should be most upset about this when they delivered a GOP majority and now that's being wasted

Argentina President Javier Milei doing the “Trump dance” at Mar-a-Lago after getting an $40 billion bailout. Meanwhile, Trump won’t renew subsides for American healthcare.

A deep commitment to anti-wokeness

Senate Dems, do not cave. Ensuring healthcare premiums don’t surge is an 80-20 issue. They want to gut the ACA because their disdain for Obama far outweighs their concern for anyone’s health.

ICE is inflicting a lifetime of trauma on families. And it’s being carried out in the name of the United States of America.

This is just fantastic read from @notus.com. Democracy is indeed a letter to the editor www.notus.org/perspectives...

…

If you haven’t heard about the general strike/boycott. Big business count on consumers to spend big this week every year. Show them you are displeased with their capitulation and support of the admin. They are details floating around various platforms on the how. Only spend local.

Senate Democrats have a common-sense compromise: Let’s extend the ACA enhanced tax credits at the current levels for a year, and start a bipartisan working group to find real, long-term solutions to our country’s health care crisis.

Filing for office on the November 2026 ballot is officially underway, and Rep. Al Green was the first in line in Austin this morning to file for Congressional District 18! Learn more about filing for office here: www.texasdemocrats.org/run-for-office

Chris Murphy: "There will be pretty substantial damage to a Dem brand that has been rehabilitated if on the heels of an election in which the people told us to keep fighting, we immediately stop... if we surrender without having gotten anything, I worry it'll be hard to get them back up off the mat"

Nick Daniels, president of the National Air Traffic Controllers Association, said workers have gone too long without paychecks to work safely.

This city belongs to you. youtu.be/Nf4aPjPu6pk

Cutting flights because of the govt shutdown is a stunt, plain and simple

For those who saw a certain sociopath lurk impassively and insensitively as a guest fainted in the Oval Office, check out this clip from when we had a compassionate human as POTUS.

RFK Jr bolts out of the Oval Office when there’s a medical emergency Nothing says “I’m qualified to lead the agency in charge of the health of a nation” quite like running away Maybe he realized the only thing he could do would be blame the man who fainted for not trying hard enough not to faint.

ICE ABDUCTED THIS PRESCHOOL TEACHER! They stormed into the preschool endangering children. This woman has a permit to work here, but Trump's brutal forces slammed her, face first through the door & detained her anyway. This could happen at your children's school. Call Congress 202-224-3121!

The assignment: full force behind @aftynbehn.bsky.social’s TN-7 campaign! Mike Johnson is possibly waiting till 12/2 to seat Grijalva in hopes of Trump endorsed sycophant Van Epps cancelling her out? We flipped districts nationwide Tue night. Back to work - Democracy or bust! (Cont.)

✅PA- YES to Donohue, Dougherty Wecht CA - YES on Prop 50 ✅VA - Spanberger ✅NJ - Sherrill ✅NY - Mamdani Too early to call PROP 50 in CA yet, but, today Democrats came out with mandates for democracy! 🦋

This is big. The new anti-Trump coalition depends on the very working families that billionaire-ran monopolies exploit. Mamdani having antitrust enforcer Lina Khan on his team is going to keep monopolies and hedge fund managers like Bill Ackman (stay in your lane) in NYC up at night :)

This really hasn’t gotten enough attention this week. @wired.com #ICE www.wired.com/story/fbi-wa...

ICE shooting a food bank worker in the back is a little on the nose for the current moment

Mamdani: "My message to ICE agents & to everyone across this city is that everyone will be held to the same standard of the law. If you violate it, you must be held accountable. There is sadly a sense growing that certain people are allowed to violate that law, whether they be POTUS or ICE agents."

Beshear: Let me be clear. The president has both the funding and the authority to fund snap during a shutdown. In fact, every other president in every other shutdown has done so. People going hungry in this instance is a choice that this president has made.

Just left the latest hearing in Jim Comey's criminal case. It did not go well for DOJ The magistrate judge scolded them for an "indict first, investigate second" posture and ordered them to turn over reams of material — including all grand jury info — to Comey's team Details TK
