AOC represents EVERY WOMAN in America right now who is sick and tired of misogyny & misinformation.
She represents us and the rage we feel.
Your government refusing to prosecute sexual predators, but protect them instead, only makes sense when you realize your government is being run by sexual predators.
For the record: The Washington Post can go fuck itself.

A reminder that Rep. James Comer once called a press conference to announce the proof of the “Biden crime family corruption” because Joe Biden loaned his son $5000 for a down payment on a pickup.
SPLC on the Senate rejecting the SAVE Act: “Let’s be clear: this is not the end. Those who seek to restrict the right to vote are relentless, and our commitment to fighting them is unwavering.
This is a huge win for voting rights! 💙

Rep. Robert Garcia: "Unfortunately, I have to announce that Democratic members will not participating. This roundtable is not a real hearing. It's set up to appear like one. We should be clear about why that's happening. Last week, Pam Bondi skipped a legally required deposition ... "
Arizona already has universal school vouchers, and it’s led to wasted money and underfunded schools. Now, Congress plans to spend tens of billions of your tax dollars to take it nationwide. I’m fighting to stop this to protect public education and our kids’ futures.
Well, at least the BBC is covering this.
The Save Act died in the Senate, again yesterday, but with tRump’s Epstein war, most people didn’t notice.
In some South states, less than 30% of citizens have a passport, and most married women nationwide don’t have a birth certificate matching their current legal name.

This is a war based on lies
Trump is at all-time lows on inflation across polls, with a net approval of -42 points.
Among independents, Donald Trump was favored by 10 points over Kamala Harris in 2024 on inflation. His net approval with that group is now -60 points—a 70-point shift away from him.
NEW: Stories about pardons are often about presidential power. But what about people on the other side of that grace? The Coulson family may never receive millions from a wrongful death lawsuit it won years ago. @jeremykohler.bsky.social
Searing opinion from a federal judge on Long Island, who describes "police state"-like tactics by ICE to arrest peopleand draw up after-the-fact warrants.
He says DOJ is damaging its credibility with the courts by trying to shield ICE from scrutiny. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Twenty-nine people have died in ICE custody since October, the start of the federal government's fiscal year, already surpassing 2004's toll of 28, the previous record, according to government data. n.pr/4sLetjV
Rep Justin Jones made a statement entrance, walking into the Tennessee legislature with an"Abolish ICE" flag. No subtlety. No backing down.🔥🔥
Even Trump judges are finally doing something about I.C.E.

Happy Tax Day, New York. We’re taxing the rich.
BREAKING: We're suing federal immigration agents on behalf of Juan Sebastián Carvajal-Muñoz, a legal U.S. resident who was racially profiled and violently abducted in Maine in January.
Agents violated his Fourth and Fifth Amendment rights and must be held accountable.
IMPORTANT: Under federal law, it's very hard, at times near-impossible, to sue federal law enforcement officers for civil rights violations. But legal theorists have said for decades that there is a possible way to sue under state law instead.
This is a VERY big test case.
Barrera said her husband said the smell of human feces in the toilet caused a fellow detainee to vomit and, in turn, created a chain of people vomiting. She said her husband is asthmatic and has not received medication to treat his condition. The lack of medicine and the stress of the overcrowded holding cell has left him short of breath and teetering on the edge of an asthma attack, Barrera said. ICE did not immediately respond to questions on April 10 about the conditions of the Mesa or Phoenix facilities. After the publication of this article, Barrera told The Arizona Republic her husband was transferred to the ICE facility at San Luis Regional Detention Center at about midnight. The San Luis Regional Detention Center is in Southwestern Arizona and has the capacity to hold 700 people.
This is horrific. A U.S. citizen describes the facility in Arizona that her husband was brought to while he waited to be put on a deportation flight. Dozens of people were crammed into tiny cells, there was a "chain of people vomiting" from filthy toilets, no medical care, and only one meal per day.
ICE DETENTION FOR PROFIT
🚨Respect and thanks to Representatives Yassamin Ansari, Greg Stanton, and Adelita Grijalva for their unannounced visit to an ICE detention center with disgusting conditions, that tried to pull a fast one.
People need to be prosecuted for this.
