They come for one of us, they come for all of us

Justice Democrats was built for this fight — but we need you with us. John, Recently, Nancy Mace and House Republicans tried to censure Ilhan Omar for standing up to white supremacy, and Rashida Tlaib for demanding our government stop enabling war crimes. Let’s be clear: this was never ab…

Tom Homan took a $50,000 bag of cash

Trump allies and corporations are profiting off the pain caused by ICE. John, Last year, Tom Homan — Donald Trump’s current border czar — accepted a $50,000 bag of cash from two FBI agents posing as businessmen, in exchange for help winning lucrative government contracts related to border…

Trump’s new executive order threatens all of us

John, In his ongoing assault on free speech and political dissent, Donald Trump just signed an unconstitutional executive order to follow through on his promise to designate ‘antifa’ as a domestic terrorist organization. We know that ‘antifa’ isn’t a singular entity or organization. So …

Fascism is here

John, This week, the Trump administration rapidly escalated its assault on free speech and political dissent. They’re no longer only targeting pro-Palestinian activism: they’re censoring and attacking ANY speech they don’t like. Justice Democrats’ Rep. Summer Lee put it perfectly: “We ar…

BREAKING: Judge orders Mahmoud Khalil to be deported

Nancy Mace

John, Notorious right-winger Nancy Mace just introduced a resolution to strip Ilhan of her committee assignments. Let’s be clear about what’s happening here: Rep. Mace is lying to gin up right-wing anger against Ilhan. This political stunt is personal — the result of years of xenophobic…

John, At an event last week, Democratic Senator Kirsten Gillibrand insisted that most Democratic voters are “pro-Israel.” That’s factually untrue, and she knows it. Poll after poll proves that the opposite is true: an overwhelming majority of Democrats oppose Israel’s genocide against P…

LA is the epicenter of the fight against ICE and fascism

ICE slammed the door on oversight

This is what’s wrong with the Democratic Party

They’re redistricting 10 million people — mostly voters of color

John, 10 million Texans. That’s how many people will be redistricted under Greg Abbott’s racist and illegal new maps. And two-thirds of them? People of color — mostly Black and Latino voters. Let that sink in. The majority of the people whose voices will be silenced by this scheme are th…
