there are elders in my bones whom i have never met. their prayers are tucked and hidden beneath my skin. their courage is threaded through my hair. i walk into the world thinking i am alone, until i remember who walks with me.

Hey @Meta 👋 We are currently hosting a get-out-the-vote rally in Osceola County, home to a large Puerto Rican community, and our #LatinosConAngie @Instagram page was suddenly taken down while we were actively posting content from the event. This page is a critical communication tool for reaching Latino voters and mobilizing our community. With just seven days until Election Day, every minute matters. We are calling on Meta to immediately restore the page and provide an explanation for its removal. Voters deserve access to critical election information, especially in these final days. @andymstone

I’m gonna reiterate this again. Any financial dealings between Trump, Kushner, and Mohammed Bin Salman must come to light, and soon. We need to investigate why MBS is getting unconditional loyalty and support from Trump. #khashoggi
Replying to @KarenAttiah
Congress must investigate Trump’s and Jared Kushner's financial dealings with Saudi Arabia and Mohammed bin Salman and resulting conflicts of interest. wapo.st/2qXD8oE MbS once reportedly bragged about having Kushner “in his pocket” bit.ly/2qWlfqe

WORKING 40 HOURS a WEEK just to STILL be BROKE is CRAZY. 💯 RENT takes ONE CHECK, BILLS take the OTHER, GROCERIES cost a FORTUNE, and your DAY OFF ain’t even a DAY OFF because you got EVERYTHING to catch up on. People keep saying WORK HARDER… HOW MUCH HARDER can somebody WORK when they already giving a JOB most of THEIR LIFE? We ain’t asking to be RICH… we just wanna AFFORD to LIVE without being STRESSED EVERY DAY.‼️

Former Senatobia cop Foster who killed Kohen Wiley had 2 previous lawsuits for excessive force, one of them also mentioning that he exaggerated the threat by the vehicle he stepped in front of. Two Black men sued him for “viciously and repeatedly beating” them and claimed that Foster “conspired to charge them with crimes they did not commit” in a Waffle House parking lot in 2019 (video enclosed below). A second lawsuit was filed by Katherine Jefferson (race unverified) who claimed that on 8/26/2022, they “tased her multiple times,” “stomped on her face breaking her jaw” and “knocked out multiple teeth” during a traffic stop. actionnews5.com/2026/10/24/f… youtube.com/watch?v=5xt0EFt-…

Make him veto Medicare for All Make him veto a $25 living wage Make him veto free childcare Make him veto Block the Bombs to Israel Make him veto zero aid to Israel Make him veto free college Make him veto erasing student loans Make him veto taxes on billionaires
.@SenBrianSchatz says that if Democrats take the Senate, the party's left wing needs to be strategic about not proposing things "that the president of the United States is guaranteed to veto." "If we want to be more aspirational, if we want to make more bold policy changes... that's for 2028."

This week’s newsletter: I wrote about the GOPs strategy of Islamophobia has been aided by Democrats and the press. And I find the lack of pushback not only immoral but shortsighted. We either all have a place in democracy or we don’t. And the forces seeking to marginalize their place in the American project will likely expand to others On @voxdotcom: vox.com/politics/507163/midt…

Black voters are doing democracy right.
Here is every state with early/mail vote reporting ranked by the change in the share of votes cast by Black voters, relative to the same point in 2022. Could someone remind me which state the Callais case came from? (yes, Black turnout in LA is massive, with SC just behind)

The CBC Foundation's partnership with Palantir, the company powering mass surveillance, predictive policing, and deportations, shows how far that inside threat has gone. We've tried to raise this directly. It no longer makes sense to stay silent.
