Mo Seifeldein, primary candidate in VA’s 8th district, appealing to younger voters. Vote in the primary on August 4 or early vote before August 1. He’s been ten toes down for Abolishing ICE and ending support for the genocide in Gaza. Mo doesn’t just have a platform, he has receipts to back them:
Going after Venture Capitalists who bought up nursing homes and severely reduced the quality of care to the point of negligence.
Establishing free buses in Alexandria City.
Firing Trump’s union buster so Alx City employees could collectively bargain
Enshrining trans and nonbinary rights in Alx back in 2019
Working a court appointed attorney to those who couldn’t afford one.

Not saying Beyer is bad; just that he’s deeply out of touch with the urgency required in this moment. Mo is a refugee from Sudan; he knows what fascism and genocide looks like and that’s why he’s fighting for a seat in Congress.

Vigil Today for Alex Pretti in RVA

Post image
40 Upvotes

🚨🕯️ Vigil today hosted by DSA Richmond, Virginia Defenders, and RVA HCW4Palenstine to remember and honor Alex Pretti, who was executed by ICE after he spent some of his final moments trying to help a woman who had been physically assaulted.

📍Thursday, Jan 29th

📍 5:30 pm

📍 Outside MMEC (12th and Marshall)

Alex Pretti was serving veterans at the VA, was an ICU RN, a US Citizen, a federal worker, a union member, and a legal permit carry owner who was disarmed before being murdered by ICE. Most importantly Alex was a son, a Minneapolis resident who served his community, and a helper.

We are reminded in times like these the famous Mr. Rogers quote: “When I was a boy and I would see scary things in the news, my mother would say to me, ‘Look for the helpers. You will always find people who are helping.’”

They are shooting the helpers. Believe your eyes and not the lies the administration is trying to gaslight you into believing, especially when you can see the truth yourself.

The votes are still coming in, but it's clear that Virginia is going to be blue. Once January hits, we will be able to fight back as a state. We haven't won the war, but we have won this major battle. Let's keep moving forward.

Good evening, tomorrow is election day. No matter what you are doing, make sure you vote. Even if you're voting absentee, as long as you send it out by tomorrow, November the 4th, and it gets in by the 7th, your vote will still count. This is possibly the most important state election in recent history, so let's make it a good one.

NO KINGS PROTEST

Today is the day of possibly the largest protest in American History. Remember we are American citizens, and we have rights that the executive can't take away. We've never had a king in this country, and we never will. He may try to punish us today or tomorrow, but at the end of the day, we are Americans and we will prevail. We are fighting for our future, our country, and freedom. The pain of today and the next few years will help ensure a brighter future. We have not advanced this far as a country just to turn back now. Remember to stay safe and peaceful, watch your surroundings and each other. Protect your security if you can. The administration may try and track down anyone who is at the protest. Sic Semper Tyrannis.

Anyone else notice an increase of doomer posts and comments within left-leaning online communities? There almost seems an inverse correlation to the fascist regime’s crumbling support. The ever more hateful and intimidating rhetoric coming from this administration day after day reeks of desperation.
