In Flatbush, we put together a graphical whistle code card to reduce translation needs. Files are here if you want to adapt for your neighborhood. Outside NYC, just print front. We're doing mini whistles because we can 3d print them for 5-7¢ each. We keep us safe. drive.google.com/drive/folder...

Enraged about Senate Dems selling American families down the river? So am I. Here's what to know and what to do next.

People need to be ON THEIR CITY COUNCIL MEMBERS' asses in so-called "progressive" cities. These people continue to SELL OUT their cities in multiple ways. Get acquainted with your council member and stay on their ass.

Healthcare is a basic human right. Food is basic human right. Education, housing, clean air & water are human rights. Using healthcare and food as leverage should be grounds for removal from office. SNAP, Medicaid and the ACA are worth fighting for. People will die without them.

This thread, my God. Anyone doubting that Broadview is a concentration camp should read this.

The full weight of western capitalism is about to laser focus on NYC. The robber barons failed to win and will panic. They will sabotage NYC because the system cannot allow Mamdani's term to be successful. They cannot allow people to believe things can be better. Your job now is to hold the line. 1/

This mailer has been on our door since before the primaries in June. Now, it has been accessorized.

TURN THE VOLUME UP! Good morning. 🤣 PS. I need merch that says it.

Been saying it for the last year & I'll say it again: It is never foolish to be hopeful.

Experts warn this aggressive approach will likely fuel greater abuses of civil and human rights, heighten public anger and lead to more warrantless arrests, straying far from the previous stated focus on “the worst of the worst.” “Spectacle, not security.” www.chicagotribune.com/2025/11/02/b...

Brooklynites: with SNAP benefits expiring as of today, here are two ways you can help feed neighbors: donate to CHiPS, the food pantry/ women's shelter in Park Slope: www.chipsonline.org. Or leave food in the community fridge on 6th Street between 4th and 5th avenues, next to the Postmark Cafe.

I love how Rep. Joe Neguse reframed this question.

Organizing for and with solidarity works.

A good list for people in NYC to share about how people impacted by SNAP cuts might access some food: open.substack.com/pub/eboyle/p...

These ‘neighbors from the hood’ saw ICE terrorizing their community—and banded together to fight back.

In this election, the people have two separate but equally important choices: a city they can afford or the billionaire-backed politics of the past. Our new ad just aired during Law & Order.

Lots of lovely folks want to cook for neighbors, fill community fridges during SNAP shutdown but are intimidated. A mutual aid group in Flatbush, Brooklyn has been feeding 80+ people every single week for a year and a half or so now. Nobody is born knowing how to cook for 80, so here's our guide!

I've talked before about power struggles within hardening authoritarianism. Usually, regime supporters fight over using rule-of-law in crackdowns (with massive abuses, of course) vs. completely embracing extrajudicial methods. Here, we see the latter dominating. Which is very bad news going forward.

🚨BIG changes happening -- ICE leadership is being purged tonight. The old guard, which prioritized targeted enforcement operations aimed at people with criminal records, is being replaced with Border Patrol and Gregory Bovino's "Midway Blitz" style. Think things are bad now? It'll get worse.

Organized Communities Against Deportations has launched a new mutual aid fund to support immigrant families in Chicago impacted by ICE raids Link to donate: donorbox.org/mutualaid2025

AOC: There was a day before his presidency, and there will be a day after — and it belongs to us.

HOW TO ORGANIZE YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD FOR THE END OF SNAP This is important. This came to me overnight through a group organizing in the PNW. Please consider adopting these strategies where you live. YOU WILL SAVE LIVES. SNAP runs out 11-1. Start a block/neighborhood channel on Signal and get to work.

It would help to have a National Day of Action re: SNAP - perhaps on November 1. It would take rapid response but houses of worship could take the lead in mobilizing their members. Educate everyone about the cuts, encourage local donations, pressure Congress, etc...

We love to see it!!!

Wear a necklace? Add a whistle!

Here's a photo of my friend and colleague, Jorge Bautista, getting shot in the face with a flashbang grenade. The ICE Agent is so afraid of Jorge (who was posing no threat) that he has wet himself. Please share this photo. Everyone needs to know what cowards ICE agents are.

Critical thread, and I too have been thinking a lot about Parable of the Sower as I have been debating the looming choice between insurance and housing.

The New York Times publishes a handy guide to which federal forces are terrorizing us at any moment. This is America, 2025.

It’s hard to convey just how much Chicagoans are mobilizing against ICE. Don’t want to downplay the harm, or make it seem like a fair fight. But in neighborhoods across this city, ICE is getting chased by people blowing whistles and shouting. People are running TOWARD ICE to protect their neighbors.

I want to uplift a few mutual aid projects that do food distribution in Manhattan. @evlovesnyc.bsky.social Tomkins Distro - www.instagram.com/tompkins.dis... Love Kitchen - www.nyclovekitchen.com Bowery Mission - my.bowery.org I've donated to each of these over the years.

If the impending freeze of SNAP benefits is what has you particularly animated, these questions might help. You can really substitute any issue and ask the same questions of yourself.

“.. They are the asylum seekers, the rule followers. They go into the federal building holding papers .. hoping for a measure of due process. Some leave the courthouse with a hearing date set months or years from now. Others disappear into ICE’s prison system.” @nymag.com nymag.com/intelligence...

The Guardian is reporting that since Israel and Hamas signed the ceasefire and full hostage exchange agreement, Israel has violated the ceasefire 47 times, killed 38 Palestinians, and wounded another 143 more. Meanwhile Hamas has released all remaining hostages. It Was Never About The Hostages.

REPORT: ISRAEL BREAKS CEASEFIRE BBC reporting an Israeli tank shell hit a bus carrying the Shaaban family in northern Gaza on October 17, killing 11 people—all from the same family. They were returning home to see what was left. The genocide of Palestinians continues. Where is the accountability?

Found this video while explaining the Portland Frogs to someone. Enjoy!

#NOKINGS New York City, NY

A frog in Brooklyn. March from Grand Army Plaza to Bartel Pritchard Square.

Once again, @govpritzker.illinois.gov's state police have attacked protesters while doing crowd control for ICE in Broadview. Pritzker positions himself as a Trump opponent, but he's doing ICE's dirty work in Broadview. It has to stop.

And there you have it. These strikes are clearly not legal. Pete will push commanders aside until he finds one who won’t question these extrajudicial killings. #SOUTHCOM

If anyone's wondering how this is possible, the answer is these strike teams are moving terrifyingly fast. Grab first, ask questions later. We were about 8-15 minutes behind them today for several hours. They're jumping out of vans, chasing people across lawns, taking them from bus stops, etc

FROGS OVER FASCISTS! 🐸 > 🧊 m.youtube.com/watch?v=bw5z...

Taking a swipe at the white gamer bros who support the Republican party is an interesting choice. But, while we're here, Medicaid is intened for people who CAN'T AFFORD PRIVATE HEALTH INSURANCE. What you do, or don't do, SHOULDN'T MATTER when it comes to getting health care.

* Over 20,000 Palestinians killed since January * 100s starved to death, including kids * Congress bypassed to send more & more bombs to Israel * US citizens murdered in the West Bank I hope this ceasefire holds & I am glad the hostages are free, but this is Trump’s *actual record* so far.

Mutual aid is a lot easier to get started with than people realize. I started by going to where the tents were and just walking around, getting to know people, handing out cigarettes, water, and asking what folks need And then just keep coming back, every week, for 4 years. A group will form.
