    Before we kickoff our reelection campaign, we thought it might be fun to look back at the last three years and try this challenge where progressive leaders share everything they’ve gotten done in under two minutes. Here ⬇️ is our remix: 3 years in... more or less 3 minutes. 😜

    I’m feeling so much right now. Im really overwhelmed…As an African American, I am constantly worried about attacks on me and my community by white nationalists. I am constantly worried about attacks on my kids. No one should have to live daily with that level of fear. 🧵

    Here are the latest ads targeting with Islamophobic hate, saying she thinks "there is no difference between America and the Taliban" (a blatant lie). Dozens of Jewish groups demanded they take them down last year. They refused.

    .: We have reached the point where prominent figures in the conservative movement, including GOP politicians and Fox News hosts, are calling for the U.S. to intentionally starve babies in its care. That's not hyperbole—It's the actual stated position now on the right.

    This is Islamophobic. American Justices or lawmakers advancing U.S laws subjecting women to the cruelty of Christian extremism doctrine has nothing to do with Muslims. Leave us out of it. Lets call out Christian religious extremists who are violating our constitutional rights.

    More than 90 percent of Syrians live in poverty. Half have been displaced by the Syrian War. The Russian invasion of Ukraine has made the humanitarian situation worse. Syrian refugees and all displaced people need our support!

    If you’re in Minneapolis, you’re probably in your basement—good! I’ve heard reports of sparks flying off power lines. It’s every bit as bad as it sounds. Stay the hell away AND report it as an outage—even if the power isn’t all the way out. Report here👇🏽

    Thank you to the for talking to the witnesses of the shooting, instead of just reporting the disproven official narrative as fact. And for fact checking the video released by the Israeli government. May truth and justice prevail, always.

    The right: “We support the First Amendment!” Us: Like kneeling at NFL games? “Not that kind” Like not banning books? “Not that kind either” Like peacefully protesting against public officials? “Well…”
