Democrats should probably start acting as if a fascist regime was sending agents of the state to arrest them without warrants for political crimes—because that’s exactly what is happening.

Thanks to #GerryConnolly, the House passed the Republicans’ financial crisis bill by 215-214-1. Senior Democrats refused to retire early and died in the Republican administration, which can do us no good, and Blue MAGAs are still defending gerontocracy.

I’m asking for your donation. But it’s not for me. To defeat Andrew Cuomo and turn the page on corruption, we need strong candidates in this race like Speaker Adrienne Adams. NYC, give what you can before Monday night’s deadline!

Zionists need to be excluded from progressive spaces. There’s no room for the defence and support of violent occupation, ethnic cleansing and extermination of human beings in these spaces. It’s savagery and brutality at its worst to support the Zionist entity.

DOJ has issued guidance to all federal agencies telling them they never have to answer questions from minority members of Congress, even those w/ oversight responsibilities. This policy should be outlawed, assuming a Congress is ever elected that isn’t entirely useless.
