How we beat back the corporate takeover of America: 1. Break up corporate monopolies 2. Continue building union power 3. End Citizens United and get big money out of politics Let’s keep working to unrig the system.

You can’t say criminals don’t deserve due process when due process is the thing that decides if they're criminals. Otherwise you're just kidnapping people you don't like.

🔥 “My father & grandmother died of cancer… Living in 38109 is a death sentence for Black Memphians… WELCOME TO THE NEW GENERATION OF ENVIRONMENTAL JUSTICE… because in Memphis we don’t bluff. PERIOD.” #MemphisVsMusk Original post: www.instagram.com/reel/DI6ldn0...

All I keep thinking about is that if/when Dems regain power, every action to restore normality or basic functioning of governmental institutions will be covered by the national press like it’s a controversial, partisan power play on par with a coup.

At this rate MAGA will only be able to afford to rent the libs.

Hell yeah, about damn time!

We just ordered some pizza. The pizza place did not order anything from us in return. Does this mean we’re “losing” our trade deficit with the pizza place? 🍕 🤔

Disruption is all they seem to understand—so that’s exactly what they’re getting. For 14 hours, @booker.senate.gov has been on the Senate floor, speaking truth within the rules. This cannot be business as usual when our democracy’s on the line. Thank you, senator.

Props to @booker.senate.gov for filibustering to highlight the criminal & inhumane things we’ve seen from Trump & Musk in just a little over 2 months. We need more of this energy from @democrats.org across government. STAND UP FOR THOSE OF US WHO CAN’T AFFORD TO BUY ELECTIONS OR POLITICIANS!

Casar: One of the most important things I learned is how so many of the most right-wing elected officials break things, do not want services to work, and then campaign on them being broken in order to gain political power.

Rumeysa Ozturk was kidnapped in plain sight & sent to Louisiana to be locked in the same detention center Mahmoud Khalil was sent to. She's a peaceful protestor, grad student, & my constituent who has a right to free speech & due process. Now she's a political prisoner. Free her now.

I turn my phone off or put it on airplane mode when I talk shit so it doesn’t accidentally call/text the person I’m talking about, so clearly I’m qualified and ready for my confirmation hearing to become a cabinet secretary or top intelligence official.

These are the kind of people who end up carrying cyanide capsules just in case history catches up to them.

We expected 2,000 people out in GOP-held Greeley, Colorado. 11,000 people showed up. Something special is happening, folks. Now is the time to organize in every dimension possible and get to work.

NEBRASKA CROWD: “TAX THE RICH! TAX THE RICH!” @USRepMikeFlood: “So your proposal to solve (the debt) is tax the rich?” NEBRASKA CROWD: *CHEERS WILDLY* (not sure this went quite as he planned 😬)

Not sure when the penny is going to drop that this dude means what he tweets, does and sig heils www.nytimes.com/2025/03/14/t...

@bsky.app can we get a feature to turn on notifications for when certain accounts tweet? I rely on @nashseverewx.com for weather updates and it’s so helpful to be able to turn on alerts/notifications for their tweets during severe weather.

The only thing @schumer.senate.gov is leading is us…into facism.

Listening to today’s pod and @danpfeiffer.bsky.social nails what passing the CR means. It takes away ALL leverage the Dems have & legalizes 1.2 bil in cuts to discretionary spending (head start, community health, education, food safety, cancer research, etc).

🚨 We need you to call your Democratic senator ASAP if their name is on this list. Tell your senator you will have their back if they do the right thing and vote NO on the extreme MAGA spending bill that would give Trump more power to dismantle the federal government: indivisible.org/resource/cal...
