People in this country are ready for Medicare for All, abortion justice, reparations, abolishing ICE, and so much more. And that's what I'll be fighting for in a Democratic majority Congress.
If you agree, endorse our agenda at AyannaPressley.com/Agenda.
Let ‘em know sis!
Republicans have been flooding the zone with lawlessness, cruelty, & corruption.
And Democrats have a mandate to match their energy—boldly & unapologetically.
It's not enough to be the adults in the room. We have to prove that we are the FIGHTERS in the room.

This is raggedy. But I’m not surprised by the agreement 🤝 with fascism bc of who she’s funded by.
But thanks for helping Abdul raise some money today.

They are attacking Angie Nixon non stop because they are terrified of the people powered humanity movement she has built! Donate phone bank and knock doors and let’s win this thing. I will be in Florida tomorrow. Let’s go!

The commander of the Israeli military unit likely responsible for killing 5-year-old Hind Rajab is currently in the U.S.
As a party to the Genocide Convention and the Geneva Conventions, our government is obligated to arrest and investigate him for these war crimes and acts of genocide. I stand with @HindRFoundation in calling on the DOJ to follow the law and take action.
🇺🇸🚨 The #HindRajabFoundation has filed an urgent request with the U.S. Department of Justice, demanding the immediate investigation, arrest, and prosecution of Sean Glass, currently present in the United States. Glass commanded the Israeli unit implicated in Hind Rajab's murder. HRF's investigation places the 52nd Battalion—including Glass and his Vampire Empire Company—near her vehicle during the killing. Today, Glass walks free in the U.S.

Glad to see @60Minutes reporting on this rn. When I was there in the West Bank a few days ago, the Hilltop Youth showed up in every village we traveled to. The intimidation, harassment, and violence from these invaders are rampant & funded by the government. They must be stopped.
60 Minutes’ Lesley Stahl joins a Palestinian family as they try to reach their home in the West Bank. Young Israeli settlers known as Hilltop Youth run down the hill and physically block the family from entering.
Editor's note: In compliance with Israeli law, 60 Minutes is obscuring the faces of underage participants in these actions. cbsn.ws/4yQ6ZQw
He was only 14 years old.
Amer Rabee was a Palestinian-American teen from New Jersey, on vacation with his family in the West Bank. He and two other teen boys were out picking almonds when the IOF shot them.
The IOF alleges they were throwing stones, so they shot Amer 21 times- 6 of those bullets hit him after he was already down on the ground, already dead. Yes, they shot him 6 more times after he was already gone. The other two boys were injured as well in the shooting by the IOF.
No parent should have to endure this type of pain, an act of pure evil. Please understand YOUR US tax dollars funded this atrocity.
As we learned about Amer’s life, we visited a park built by Amer’s father in his son’s memory, complete with a playground, basketball court, and beautiful murals, as seen in the video. There must be an investigation into his killing and the injury of the other victims.
We received a call about an attack and went to support the family.
This is 78-year-old Mustafa, a farmer from Abu Falah in the West Bank. Invaders attacked his property at 1:15 a.m. on Sunday, 9/27. Four of his vehicles, including a tractor, were burned, and the windows of his home were busted out. He and his wife were in danger of being attacked, but the invaders were scared off before Mustafa and his elderly wife were physically harmed.
They are American citizens.
This attack, like so many others that happen daily in the West Bank, was funded with your US taxpayer dollars.
He said more than 150 “settlers” attacked his property. I asked him whether that meant all the invaders in the West Bank had shown up at his home, since Netanyahu claims there are only 150 in total. Mustafa laughed because the number is actually considered to be in the thousands.
There are no “settlers” in Palestine.
The term “settlers” mischaracterizes the invaders who engage in land theft, intimidation, occupation, forced removal, and murder to ethnically cleanse Palestinians from the region and illegally annex the West Bank.
While spending time with multiple leaders and families in Palestine, it is beyond evident that the “settlers” also known as Hilltop Youth, are not rioters who are acting alone. Invader outposts line the hills of villages throughout West Bank and attacks on families and their homes happen daily under the protection of Israeli military funded by U.S. tax dollars.
Our delegation came face to face with one of the Hilltop Youth ringleaders (Amichav Melat) when we went with our host to his family’s olive grove to which he had not been able to access and harvest for nearly three years due to invaders.

Shame!
Yesterday the Missouri Supreme Court heard three cases regarding the recent redistricting maps and processes that the Republican Party has tried to force down the throats of Missourians. Despite organizations like People Not Politicians and Respect MO Voters delivering over 300,000 petition signatures in opposition to Republicans doing Trump’s bidding in the state, the party shamefully persists. Even more shameful were attorneys for the Attorney General’s Office, Secretary of State, and Republican Party arguing before the court with blatant disregard for the Missouri Constitution and insinuating that regardless of how the court rules, they will push forward with using the unlawful gerrymandered maps in November.
If you are on the right side, why go to such lengths to impede justice and create chaos?

.@LauraLoomer - you traffic in low level insults, cruelty, and ugliness.
You attack and insult Black women because you believe peddling racism is good for your clicks and your business model.
And while everyone with internet access and ignorant opinions doesn’t deserve a response, this is someone who is an advisor of Donald Trump and who should be condemned by all.
We will never let anyone steal our joy or let those that don’t matter too much, matter too much.
But to Laura Loomer, if you are going to attack brilliant, bold, beautiful Black women, know this: they are way out of your league. Respectfully, I suggest you sit this one out.
