Progressives or Bust! - June 12, 2026

Early Voting has begun in Maryland! **AIPAC Corporate Democrats** @majority.fm [http://majority.fm/]Is Graham Platner cosplaying, or is this Dem consultant just worried about the commission she'll lose out on when campaigns that rely on doorknockers and grassroots campaigns win? https://www.instagram.com/p/DZGQfGKxfke/ [https://www.instagram.com/p/DZGQfGKxfke/] @candidly_tiffI’m so annoyed by the SuperPACs backing Adrian Boafo and Quincy Bareebe trying to buy my congressional seat. I can’t wait for June 23rd so this can be over. #md05 #mdpolitics https://www.instagram.com/p/DZa9kptJd78/ [https://www.instagram.com/p/DZa9kptJd78/] @progressive.maryland - Don't support Boafo who is the AIPAC CRYPTO Candidate How many times do we have to say this?Marylanders DO NOT WANT outsiders in our local elections. We cannot let developer super PACs, tech and crypto executives, or anyone associated with them attempting to BUY our elections.

While she was a student at Northwestern University, Glueck served as the co-president of the student group Students for Israel.

Minutes later, he returned wearing body armor and carrying an AR-15-style rifle before opening fire. Marine veteran Ramell Green stepped in to protect his family from a hate-fueled attack. Black families deserve to gather, celebrate, and make memories without fear of becoming targets. This was no misunderstanding but a deliberate act that endangered the lives of children and elders. When innocent lives are put in the crosshairs of hate, accountability is not optional and justice is NOT negotiable. https://www.instagram.com/p/DZd5xC8DDW1/ [https://www.instagram.com/p/DZd5xC8DDW1/] **DATA Centers and A.I.** @nytimes Residents in Saline Township, Michigan, are banding together to oppose an A.I. data center, crossing political lines in surprising new ways.
