On our way to Bangor, Maine for a rally with @grahamformaine.
The crises facing our country are too serious for establishment politics and tinkering around the edges.
We need candidates like Graham who will take on the greed of the oligarchs and deliver for working families.
This is a great answer from @AOC. I’ve heard a lot of people duck the are you gonna run for president question, and rarely is the answer actually inspiring.
Axelrod: There are a lot of people who would like you to run for president in 2028. And there are others who would like you to run for the senate.
AOC: In this op-ed that Bezos paid for in The Washington Post, there was a veiled threat—it was the elite saying if you want this job, you just stepped out of line. What’s funny about that is they assume my ambition is positional. They assume my ambition is a title or a seat. My ambition is way bigger than that. My ambition is to change this country. Presidents come and go, elected officials come and go, single payer healthcare is forever.
Funding for DHS—including ICE—should be stripped out from the Senate funding package and debated as a separate, standalone bill.
The days of ICE getting billions of dollars and spending it terrorizing American communities must end.
BREAKING: @AOC just completely went off on Trump after ICE murdered Alex Pretti.
"Donald Trump [is] accusing a Veteran Affairs ICU nurse (Alex Pretti) as being a terrorist against the United States. A man who was treating services members to our country, who was dedicating his life to serving Americans. Who in his final act on this earth was helping a woman pushed to the ground. And they are calling him a Domestic Terrorist, in order to defend their gross abuse of power, their absolute breaching of the law and in order to precipitate greater conflict."
Americans are being killed in the street by their government. Our Constitution is being shredded and our rights are dissolving. Resist.
Senate Dems should block ICE funding this week. Activate the National Guard.
We can and must stop this.
A regime change war in Latin America based on absurd rationales about drug trafficking, no explanation of goals, and counter to everything Trump promised campaigning. And we’re not even a full year into Trump’s term.
