#MLKday is a federal holiday, but DCβs Peace Walk + Parade is a #Ward8 event! Iβve been coming to this treasured annual tradition since I was a kid and Iβm glad we were back outside on the Ave this year.
Now letβs make Kingβs dream real by winning Statehood for the people of DC.
As we celebrate the 40th national #MLKday, let us recommit to the unfinished fight of the civil rights movement: full self-determination and statehood for the people of DC.
Dr. King marched alongside DC leaders to move us closer to that dream. Itβs this generationβs task to finish the job.
LIVE Tonight at 7PM ET: Iβm on βShadow Politicsβ with Former DC Senator Michael Brown talking about our campaign + whatβs ahead in the fight for democracy and #DCStatehood. Listen: cast.bbstalkradio.com:9996/stream
Itβs time to turn energy into action.
The people of DC canβt wait for statehood any longer β the stakes are far too high. We need a fighter ready to finish the job.
Letβs get to work. MarkusForDC.com
The snide and baiting press questions through this remarkably cordial meeting between the president and @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social shows that we have far more problems to fix in our democracy than who gets elected.
If Iβm going to survive on here, I need quality reaction video pages. Please be generous.
We thank all of the members who are standing up for the people of DC! The reps that went to bat for DC help us to stay in the fight to protect our home and each other!
Democrats, VOTE NO on H.R. 5214 and 5107!!!
Call or @ your member of Congress RIGHT NOW and tell them to vote NO on anti-DC bills HR 5107 + HR 5214
The House is voting today on two bills that will put hard-fought reforms to DCβs justice system in the crosshairs.
But what happens in DC doesnβt stay here. When itβs DC today, itβs always America tomorrow. We can stop it right here, right now. #FreeDC
Thereβs lots of noise in Virginiaβs contested AG election. But letβs be clear: the choice is between a puppet working for Trump and a leader fighting for you.
Jay Jones is the Attorney General we need.
Our latest ad on air statewide:
When freedom, justice, and democracy are on the line, we need bold leaders at every level of government fighting for us. Thatβs we must keep Commonwealthβs Attorney Stephanie Morales on the job.
Watch our latest spot running in Portsmouth, Virginia + vote before Nov. 4:
Trump conned New Jersey families on affordability. Itβs time to elect experienced leaders like @mikiesherrill.bsky.social + @mussabali.bsky.social who will deliver.
Watch our latest spot running now in Jersey City:
Grey-Sloan Hospital has more high-casualty events than all of Seattle. #GreysAnatomy
The training wheel on the cross should tell you everything you need to know.
Lots of play for my film β51st Stateβ streaming on @pbs.org and WETA on Reddit. Film is also streaming on the PBS+ app and at weta.org. The story of DC statehood is more important than ever.
Letβs be clear: Trumpβs plan to βtake over DCβ is not an innocent attempt at a beautification project β itβs a hostile takeover of our lives and our laws.
We need to start treating it like that.
Black unemployment is risingβcritics say Trumpβs βBlack jobsβ promise was a lie (via @thegrio.bsky.social) thegrio.com/2025/08/04/b...
Trump said heβs been the best president for Black folks since Lincoln.
Heβs smoking dope.
After promising to save #BlackJobs during the campaign, heβs gotten to work gutting the Black workforce in every sector. And the new jobs numbers donβt lie.
The Pike statue was a stain on the landscape of our nationβs capital β a city anchored by the descendants of free and enslaved Black people. Unrest and reckoning brought it down. Our commitment to justice should keep it down.
BREAKING: Texas Democratic legislators are preventing a Trump-led rigging of congressional elections by leaving the state and breaking quorum β the necessary number of present members to do business.
I respect and salute every person, of every background and origin, whoβs served and sacrificed in the U.S. Army β including my father, still resting with honor.
I donβt respect a rogue, draft-dodging wannabe dictator hijacking its 250th birthday to stroke his fascist ego.

Donald Trump has sent troops into largely peaceful protests to sow chaos, oppress opposition, and justify further abuses of power.
Stay vigilant.
