“You cannot claim to oppose fascism while prosecuting those who resist it globally. You cannot posture as a defender of democracy while silencing the young, the marginalized, and the courageous who embody its truest form—people power…In relentless solidarity with Gaza and all peoples fighting annihilation.”

Condemning Dana Nessel’s Hypocrisy
"Michigan attorney general Dana Nessel, a self-styled progressive who has attempted to build a reputation opposing Donald Trump’s authoritarianism, now exposes her own hypocrisy by weaponizing the legal system to suppress pro-Palestine protesters.
...
Where was this zeal for “accountability” when white supremacists plotted to kidnap Michigan’s governor? Where is her outrage over “israel’s” US-funded genocide in Gaza, which has slaughtered over 40,000 Palestinians? Her selective application of justice exposes a dangerous truth: For Nessel, opposing Trump is a political brand, not a commitment to dismantling oppression."

A pair of Moon photos from earlier in the week in honor of tonight's approaching total solar eclipse. Alas, totality is going to run from 2:26 am EDT to 3:31 am EDT. So we'll see if I make it that late at night. But it should be a great viewing opportunity for folks on the West Coast.

ALERT: I've heard from a high up source that Slotkin is against the GOP funding bill, but Gary Peters may vote for it. If you're in Michigan, please call both. Tell Slotkin thank you, and urge Peters to vote against cloture (not just against the bill). #michigan

Slotkin: 202-224-4822
