Progressive Fighter @nurselee4az has won her Congressional Primary in Arizona’s 5th District!

Given that scandal-plagued Sheriff Mark Lamb won the GOP primary, she has a real chance to flip her seat blue!

Breaking News: ICE kills again in Florida Today. ICE cannot be reformed; We must Abolish ICE.

Congratulations to @melatkirosco.bsky.social, who has become the most recent DSA candidate to win a Congressional primary against a sitting incumbent this year!

ICE has once again murdered one of our neighbors, Lorenzo Salgado Araujo. ICE claimed that he “weaponized his vehicle,” which is the exact same lie ICE told about Renee Nicole Good, & have refused to release the bodycam footage.

We must abolish & prosecute ICE. We must destroy the American Gestapo.

ICE fatally shot Lorenzo Salgado Araujo during a Houston enforcement operation. His family says he was a hardworking father on his way to work. This is a deadly pattern at DHS: no transparency, no oversight, no accountability. We demand an independent investigation.

"If you're involved in any of this [corruption], next year, you'll be swearing to tell the truth, the whole truth & nothing but in the truth, so help me G-d, in front of the United States Congress!"

@ossoff.bsky.social goes OFF on corrupt officials & promises to make them answer for their crimes

50501 Demands Justice for Lorenzo Salgado Araujo & Joan Sebastian Guerrero

Jon Ossoff GOES OFF on a sitting congressman who's allowed an antisemitic propagandist to film on his own property. Right now, Ossoff & AOC are two of the loudest voices against corruption in the Senate & the House - we need more leaders like them!

Thank you to the 45 Senate Democrats who voted to block this bill (it required 60 votes to pass)!

We must continue to hold the line to end the evil War on Iran & to prevent the US military’s integration with Israel’s.

Al Jazeera English @aljazeera.com

Senate Democrats block defence bill over Iran war, Israel integration https://aje.news/fxnyer

UPDATE: 6 Democrats voted for H.R. 8800 (the NDAA). They & 209 House GOP voted to spend $1.5 trillion on Trump’s military policies, including the War on Iran & “integrating” U.S.‘s military with a genocidal pariah state.

They have blood on their hands. Tell your Senators: Vote no, or lose your seat

The 50501 movement is calling for Graham Platner to drop out of the Maine Senate Race in light of the credible and horrific allegations of sexual violence made against him. We stand in solidarity with Jenny Racicot, who had the courage to come forward with her story, and with survivors everywhere.

All of U.S. 250 Demonstrations are kicking off nationwide, as @lsarsour.bsky.social speaks in Washington, D.C.

Troy Jackson @troyjackson207.bsky.social

Trump just claimed that the 2020 elections are illegitimate as part a harebrained scheme to pass the SAVE Act. He couldn’t even get the “do the coup” part right

We are proud to announce that our newest 50501 Rising Star is Oliver Larkin for Congress (FL-25)! The Florida primary is on August 18th - make sure to vote!

You had students arrested for nonviolent protest.

Your endorsements mean nothing, except as a signal to all anti-fascists that your preferred candidates will also side with MAGA against free speech. Being supported by you is like being supported by Bill Maher.

Dana Nessel @dananessel.bsky.social

The mainstream media, forgetting about a progressive, popular Black woman, @angieforfl.bsky.social, who is running for office? Shocking /s

We interviewed @justinjpearson.bsky.social who is running for Congress (TN-9) about fighting back against gerrymandering, data centers, & billionaire megadonors.

Thank you to our friends @couriernewsroom.bsky.social for filming!

Editor's Note: This might be our easiest Rising Star pick so far, given how anti-human rights the incumbent has been.

50501 is proud to announce our newest Rising Star, Brent Hennrich, who is a Democrat running in Washington's
3rd Congressional District!

ICE continues to kidnap, torture, & kill. ICE cannot be reformed—it must be abolished. We have championed legislation to immediately abolish ICE, hold abusers accountable, & repair communities. Your support is crucial to getting these bills passed. Sign & share: actionnetwork.org/petitions/aaactnow

Watch: Arizona Congressional Candidate for District 4 & 50501 Rising Star @kainewkirk.bsky.social speaks out against ICE & fascism at a No Kings protest.
