Air travel has become a lot riskier for certain racialized (regardless of citizenship status) groups and I don't think we understand the extent of it.

POLL: “Dems' real problem isn't being too liberal — it's being seen as too weak… The path to 2026 doesn’t run through the center. It runs through the fight.” www.gelliottmorris.com/p/new-poll-d...
No, ¡qué pena con la visita!
My favorite moment from the Jesse Welles show in Atlanta 02/25 ✌️
Similar democratic backsliding processes (ie, Venezuela) have shown that electoral fraud is not limited to post-election manipulation or even day-of events, but rather continued and structural inequalities spread throughout the electoral system favoring those in charge.
Tune in tonight to your local PBS station at 10 pm EST for the AP/Frontline documentary on Maduro's downfall and what's next for Venezuela 🇻🇪

Would love to see journos use the same negative heuristics when reporting on Trump & co. as they do for foreign non-aligned governments: don’t call it an admin, call it a regime; don’t call him president, call him a strongman; don’t call colleagues being snatched detentions, call them silencings…
Please share. 💔

Honestly, more like “criminalillos de guerra”
This week: we execute a U.S. citizen.
Next week: we take over elections to stop “fraud.”
It's so transparent what's going on here.
If SNL does not do a spoof ChatGPT ad, with all and the corny scrolling dialog overlay (“I see you decided to bomb a country. Great! Here’s a plan to run it…”), it will all have been in vain!
What Venezuelans think of the capture of Maduro might not be what you first assume...

As it was for Venezuelans electing Hugo Chavez in 1999, after leading a failed coup attempt in 1992. Perhaps the issue is electing actors who have demonstrably disregarded the same democratic norms that allowed them to gain power.
ffs WashPo — succeeding at what exactly?
Eh, just about now!
Who could have possibly imagined this as an outcome…? Oh, let’s see: anyone with a modicum of knowledge on the Venezuelan regime.

What's especially insane about all of this is that Maduro is going to get more due process than the Venezuelan migrants deported to CECOT.
I'm not seeing many interact with this... #Venezuela
Operation Absolute Resolve, seen here resolving absolutely nothing.

I feel like I haven’t even been properly lied to about the purposes of this war

As terrible as the invasion of Venezuela seems, the bigger picture is worse “…what we just witnessed was the death of sovereignty as a meaningful concept, delivered with all the ceremony of a hostile takeover announcement on the NASDAQ on a Tuesday morning.”

The New York Times has just confirmed that 40 civilians died in President Trump's invasion.
This is the aftermath in one area
Then they were the only ones surprised.
Many of you have called or texted to ask my thoughts on the rapidly developing situation in #Venezuela
I hope this blog post helps shed light on where our focus should be in the coming days —> doubleclick.blog/the/
REMEMBER: Talk to Venezuelans about Venezuela!
Statement on Illegal U.S. Strike on Venezuela Matt Ortega, Democratic candidate for California’s 14th Congressional District, issued the following statement on the illegal strike against Venezuela:
The president’s imperialist actions in Venezuela are illegal under U.S. and international law. It is in violation of his constitutional oath of office and the Charter of the United Nations. The Congress has not authorized this. No international authority has authorized this. The people of California’s 14th Congressional District do not support this. The rationale is an afterthought to the explicitly stated goal of colonial seizure of Venezuela’s oil.
It’s a repeat of one of the worst acts of our history in the hemisphere. A destabilizing move that could plunge the country into bloody chaos. American troops sent into combat for resource extraction. The bomb craters have yet to cease billowing smoke and already Wall Street and industry are moving in to take advantage. Congress must act now. Put a stop to this illegal adventurism in Latin America. It will get out of control if they do not. These must include:
War Powers resolution to block further operations without congressional approval Congressional prohibition on U.S. industry from operating in Venezuela Impeachment and removal of the President of the United States, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, Attorney General Pam Bondi, and CIA Director John Radcliffe for this and other offenses This administration is a national security threat to the United States and a rogue international actor. It respects no law and no authority but its own.
As a candidate for Congress in #CA14, my full statement on the illegal U.S. strike against Venezuela. It's imperialism. It's colonialism. It's illegal. Congress must act now.
