The people of the District of Columbia deserve dignity, respect, and self-determination. Join our movement to win it. #FreeDC
@freedcproject.bsky.socialMAGA John McGuire messed with the wrong people.
We’re over 100 people strong today knocking doors for @tomperriello.bsky.social for VA-05!
@freedcproject.bsky.socialWhen we first joined the effort to flip VA-05, people told us not to bother — that it was a lost cause.
Now it’s a coin-toss race. @tomperriello.bsky.social has the momentum and MAGA John McGuire is losing ground every day.

@washsunmetro.bsky.socialReposted by @freedcproject.bsky.socialThe D.C. Board of Elections submitted an official request asking National Guard troops to steer clear of ballot drop boxes and other voting locations in the city.

@freedcproject.bsky.socialHis name was Julian Curo-Churata. His family deserves answers and accountability. Abolish ICE.
@jonathanbernstein.bsky.socialReposted by @freedcproject.bsky.socialObviously isn't going to happen before unified Dem government, but the time to push for it is now and soon - Dems should be making DC statehood (and PR if they want it) a key plank in the democracy agenda and a litmus test for presidential candidates.
@freedcproject.bsky.sociallocal organizers here! if you want to help DC communities as we push back against federal attacks, send a letter to your reps telling them to side with DC’s people, not the regime: freedcproject.org/news/allies-...
@parsnip.bsky.socialReposted by @freedcproject.bsky.socialdc statehood is non-negotiable after trump's actions in his second term. republicans despise the people of the city that hosts them, and there is little reason to think that, now that the seal is broken on treating them as an occupied population, a next republican president will be more restrained
@nbcwashington.comReposted by @freedcproject.bsky.socialA photo of armed National Guard troops surrounding a D.C. ballot drop box triggered concern at the highest levels of D.C. government Friday.
@51st.newsReposted by @freedcproject.bsky.socialOn Nov. 7, the beloved Dukem Ethiopian Restaurant will open their doors to patrons for the last time.
“Some restaurants are more than just a place to eat,” one customer wrote. “They become part of the fabric of a city. Dukem will never be forgotten.”
@democracydocket.comReposted by @freedcproject.bsky.social🎉 WIN: The DOJ demanded unredacted voter rolls from 49 states and D.C., seeking sensitive information such as addresses and Social Security numbers.
Now, a judge has ruled the department doesn’t have a right to any of it — even the data states handed over voluntarily: https://demdock.com/4hCYiCO
@michellechap76.bsky.socialReposted by @freedcproject.bsky.socialDC folks, if you film an arrest, especially one involving federal agents or National Guard, please make a report to Film the Police DC. @harrietsdreams.bsky.social and @dcmigrantmutualaid.org can then take action to help arrestees #WeKeepUsSafe
@freedcproject.bsky.socialWhat are @wmata.com workers doing here??? Nothing?? WORSE???
@practicalnecromancy.comReposted by @freedcproject.bsky.socialOne of my former students just witnessed this on Orange Line in the DC Metro - ICE/HSI abducting someone from the platform of Stadium-Armory. She was scared. She didn’t know what to do. She shouted “ICE is here!” to warn others. I’m proud she did that. And she bore witness.
@maustermuhle.bsky.socialReposted by @freedcproject.bsky.socialI just got a response from the National Guard, which says troops “are directed not to monitor or secure polling locations” and is “addressing this specific instance.”
@zeddary.bsky.socialReposted by @freedcproject.bsky.socialThey're partying in military housing while they make the actual troops live on squalid boats and wrecked airbases so their families back home can pay $5 a gallon.
@councilofdc.bsky.socialReposted by @freedcproject.bsky.socialThis is clearly not acceptable
@joshchafetz.bsky.socialReposted by @freedcproject.bsky.socialIt would really be great if folks not affiliated with the Trump Administration could stop using "Department of War." The Department of Defense is a statutory creation, and the name is statutorily given--the administration cannot unilaterally change it.
@freedcproject.bsky.socialMAGA is trying everything they can to stop people from voting. The best way we can defy them in the next 25 days is to vote early and to make sure everyone you know does the same.
