@democrats.org , please get the messaging right. It's simple: "Republicans control the House, Senate, and Presidency. They control the government. If they have the votes to do what they want to do, get it done. If they don't, negotiate with democrats like our government is designed to do." #Shutdown

How is this keeping us safe or making us healthy?

The creators of The Boys were really trying to tell us something. Fascist overthrow of the government by an entity named Vought, leading to an imperial leader ruling by fear and intimidation, supported by a loud, ignorant minority within the society...everything is there...and we missed it. #Fascism

Imagine the level of hubris, privilege, and entitlement Trump must feel to think he has the right to rename something that's been around hundreds of years longer than the US. It's the ultimate participation trophy mindset. #Trump #GulfOfMexico #MAGA #Fascism

Every day that we don't treat this like an active, hostile takeover of our country w/no regard for any so called guardrails, is another day's head start we give the fascist authoritarians. What good are the Dems if they're not seeing it for what it is & are still hoping the judiciary will save us?

While waiting for the @hartmannreport.com Thom Hartmann show to start, I heard @stephaniemiller.bsky.social blame Harris' loss on those that couldn't vote for her because of Gaza. "Don't let the perfect be the enemy of the good." she sad. What Biden allowed in Gaza was in no way good.

The silence from establishment Democrats is DEAFENING. Their cowardice is complicity and is the reason they lost and will continue to lose until they change. #Trump #Democrats #Democracy

Objectively, that TikTok has this much power over this many people should be cause for pause, no matter what your argument for it is. It's a little disheartening to see. There is not enough socially redeeming value in it to outweigh the tremendous damage it does to our youth.

ICYMI: We directed $11 million to support food shelves and fight housing insecurity. All Minnesotans deserve a warm home and full table this holiday season.

Lots of things are "coming to light" as problems in America. Unhealthy foods, unhealthy water, healthcare system that relies on people being sick, Big Pharma. These are not new. Do we think the people that helped create & that benefit from these problems really want to fix them?

Yes it does, yes it is, the oligarchs that have taken control of our country. It's a product of unfettered Capitalism. #Capitalism #UnfetteredCapitalism #Progressive

Fully expected from the mastermind behind the establishment coalescing around Biden in 2020 when Bernie once again showed he's the President the people want? Dems will oppose Trump only until that opposition threatens the establishment. Then it's all hands on deck to maintain the status quo.

It's not a hoax and it's not going away. Putin's primary goal for the last 50 years has been to bring down Western Democracy and the United States. It pays to know our history if we don't want to repeat it.

Good morning and Happy Thursday to everyone who is determined to turn up the volume and EXPOSE all of the brutal, deadly consequences of abortion bans in America. They're not "pro-life." They're pro controlling women's bodies.

That's oligarch-speak for making sure that anyone that wants to fund the ACLU doesn't have enough money to do much more than survive.

Elon Musk says he wants to do away with all tax credits. I for one can't wait to see the faces of the idiots that voted for him when their tax bill jumps by 500%, while Musk & the rest of the oligarchs continue to use tax loopholes in the tax code they wrote to avoid paying virtually any tax at all.

Those on the left can't be one issue "Liberals". We can't fight for women's bodily autonomy while ignoring genocide of Palestinians, and vice versa. We can't fight for racial justice while ignoring the fight for gender equality. We either stick together to win, or we all lose. #Progressive #Unite

This is the way to privatized schools where the goal is revenue, not education. The working class will continue to move backward for generations.

52% of "highly engaged" voters voted for Harris. 47% of that demographic voted for Trump. If that's not a clear rebuke of the current Democrat party platform, I don't know what is. If we don't find a way to redirect the Democrats, they will continue to lose & the working class will cont to suffer

Changing our country requires us to change where we get our information. Corporate media does not have the best interests of our country, the working class, journalism, or even truth in mind. Support independent, left leaning media. #Progress #Progressive

The normalization warned of when Trump declared in 2015 has happened. Norms in every element of US life, social, legal, commercial, judicial, political, have all changed. While the Dems cling to norms established decades ago. When will they adapt so they can stop losing? #Progressive #MoveLeft #Norm

Last week, Stephanie Ruhle casually mentioned how Matt Gaetz had "previously been under investigation for having sex with a 17 year old woman". 17 year old, in the US, are minors. We need to tear down the systems that support these men and their crimes, not just point them out.
