Luis Gustavo Núñez had a heart condition and medication to treat it. Guards at a GEO Group detention facility denied his requests for it. Weeks later, he was dead. Learn about Citizens Bank’s role and close your accounts. #deicecitizensbank www.de-icecitizensbank.org/impact/luis

I sounded the alarm when Donald Trump went after thousands of libraries and museums — and they just won BIG.
These are institutions that preserve our history, add BILLIONS to our economy, and educate future generations.
There's power in fighting back.
Thank you, @repmcgovern.bsky.social for visiting the Burlington Detention Center. We need to see our representatives there as often as possible. This is not a one and done!

Show your courage. Come out for #NoKings on Saturday, March 28. Check out @maindivisible.bsky.social for local demonstrations.

We’re coming together across the North Shore on March 28 to make it clear to Trump that his fear and intimidation aren’t working. In America, we have NO KINGS and power still belongs to the people. @nsindivisible.bsky.social northshoreindivisible.org/protests-and... to find an event close to you.
We've been organizing North Shore communities to pass municipal resolutions defending democracy. So far, Salem (passed March 12), Marblehead, Ipswich, Rockport, Lynn, Beverly, Manchester involved. Join us! #ResolutionsProject with @simonrosenberg.bsky.social

On my first day training new cadets, I received secretive orders to teach them to violate the Constitution by entering homes without a judicial warrant.
