Reunited with Rosie & Le Roy Torres of Burn Pits 360 for their first episode of their new podcast series -- THE WAR THAT FOLLOWED US HOME! We dug into their story of how they got started and everything leading up to the PACT ACT that we got done in 2022! I can't wait till the episodes are live! 🇺🇲 🎙
Gavin Newsom Is 💯% Correct.....
No Kings Activists,
On Saturday, federal agents shot and killed 37-year-old Alex Pretti, an ICU nurse who cared for veterans.
Join our training tomorrow, Monday, January 26, at 8 pm ET, to get the latest updates on ICE and CBP and learn how to record and document encounters effectively.
Postscript: Here are two people who brought guns to a protest and are not only still alive, but were subsequently invited to speak at the 2020 RNC. The fact that this protest was in support of George Floyd does not imply a contradiction in the gun nut world view.
“OUR HUMANITY” is under assault by our own government.
Let’s have more straight talk.
We are way past political differences.
It’s us against the fascists.
Keith Ellison: "It is in the DNA of American history that the federal government cannot trample over the prerogatives of the state. That's exactly what's happening here and that's exactly why we're going to court."
Still image showing Alex Pretti holding a phone and trying to protect himself from ICE officers.
"The armed suspect reacted violently."
An outright, barefaced and monstrous lie, conclusively disproven by irrefutable video evidence.
The U.S. Constitution is on life support and ICE just killed the ICU nurse.
Guess the GOP doesn’t care about concealed carry laws after all.
Alex Pretti "used to tell people off when they made sexist comments to female physicians. He bought me coffee when I had a really bad day as an intern...I laughed alongside him daily. He made a point to teach medical residents without judgement, but with a smile on his face and a joke."
Also, may I say that I don’t agree with people saying ICE and CBP need “more training.” They’re doing exactly what this administration has trained them to—impose a reign of fear in blue cities. They don’t need more training. They need to be ripped up root and branch.
When one side says it's raining, and one side says it isn't, your job isn't to quote both sides. Your job is to look outside and see if it's fucking raining.
Lisa went silent
Listening to his wife screaming with fear and grief and shock, and I think for those of us who have paid attention to police brutality and American history more broadly, it is painfully familiar and so hard to hear
I hope he comes home safe and soon.
Dear US Military,
As a person of faith, I believe in peace. Unfortunately we do not have it in Minnesota, because enemies within are threatening us and our allies. Please protect the people who cannot protect themselves.
I ask you to uphold the Constitution. Our government has not.
Thank you.
ICE kidnapped a 5-year-old and sent him alone to a facility in Texas. Hell isn't hot enough.
Please search for and join groups that document abuse by drumpf/Vance/Miller goons.

Dire consequences in Florida of Trump/Republicans' federal decision to eliminate ACA subsidies:
Cutting off HIV+ Americans from the medications **they're currently taking** that are keeping them alive.

ICE-Gestapo have now changed policy to allow their murderous agents to illegally enter homes without a judicial warrant.
I repeat once again, they aren’t law enforcement, they are a domestic fascist terrorist group that should’ve been abolished long ago.
Breaking WaPo:
The recent death of a detainee at an immigrant detention camp in Texas has been officially deemed a homicide, according to an autopsy report released Wednesday by the El Paso County Office of the Medical Examiner.
Please share widely
As red state Texas braces for yet another catastrophic winter storm, lying cowardly bigot Rafael Ted Cruz was spotted on a flight to yet another tropical getaway, this time Laguna Beach instead of Cancun.
This evil subhuman is what many in Texas wanted to represent them. Enjoy.
Ice needs to be abolished
my god. this baby. his little self.
there have been chapters this dark in US history before—that we moved through them makes it even more damning that we’re in this chapter now.
nothing short of accountability, meaningful justice, and full scale government reform can move us fully out of this one
This bill does nothing to lower health care costs.
This bill doesn't restrict Trump’s military adventurism in Venezuela and Greenland.
This bill doesn't halt ICE’s dangerous abuses of power and prevent ICE’s chaos in every American city.
I will vote NO on this budget deal.
Forcing 300,000 workers out of their jobs created chaos for struggling families and jeopardized the services we rely on. And there's no evidence whatsoever that all these workers are now cashing in.
The DOGE/Project 2025 cuts have been devastating for America's workers.
