My plea to Democrats:
"This isn't a battle of your choosing. But it is the battle for which you will always be judged. This is the moment you must show the world and history which side of the Edmund Pettis Bridge you are standing on."

FFS.
It's really pathetic when a former Republican strategist has to beg the Dems to respond to the current Democracy-is-being-murdered situation, to which they (except for some) seem to be oblivious.
There are holds on all trump nominees which holds up legislation.
House Dems holding town halls in red districts to bring over disaffected voters to help pressure Repugs to stand up.
Every action is necessary.
Meanwhile, back on planet Earth…
The Democrats need to be the cure. There are about a couple dozen that seem to do all the heavy lifting.
Today is a great day to speak up

Are the firehoses
All in congress

They were always this
They just hid it
They didn’t change
Just revealed themselves

Fer gawds sakes the Brazilians took care of their criminal candidate Bolsonaro in a timely manner.
Democrats have historically done well when in power, but they are in the minority in Congress
Congressional Republicans are in power right now, and can make change
If you want change, call your Republicans
That U.S. Congressional switchboard number is

Your calculus is now this; it's very simple
Move against the administration
The first ones to do so will be labeled 'courageous' and 'patriotic', while the last ones to do so will be primaried
You are in power, now
