I think these traffic threats are about making the rich even more money. 1: Threaten our friendly trade partners with tariffs 2)Watch the market tank 3)The ultra wealthy get while the gettin’ is good and buy a shitload of stock 4) backdown & do it again—it’s about making the rich more and us less.

I listened to @gavinnewsom.bsky.social on his new podcast today. I’m generally more of a moderate dem than most on this app. I agree that trans boys shouldn’t be in girls sports-but I thought the point of this podcast was to challenge the MAGA base. There really wasn’t much of that.

Please consider dropping a few $$ here, if you can. Click through to see which coup-ing billionaire is pouring in his $$$ for the other candidate.

The GOP budget is out. Republicans recently promised to love and cherish Medicaid. Their actual plan is to destroy it.

This is how. Listen to @schatz.bsky.social on Pod Save America from 2/6/25. Dems “cleanse” undesirable from the party. We can’t do that if we want to win. Welcome Joe Manchin folks, welcome AOC, Welcome to hardcore libs and conservative dems. Be against corruption & greed, stand up for each other!

"We have fought and died alongside you....During your darkest hours...we were always there. Standing with you, grieving with you, the American people.” I’ve had my differences with Justin Trudeau, for sure, but he rose to the occasion here.

@benwikler.bsky.social would have made a good DNC chair. But—I hope he is coming back to WI to lead Wis Dems. He’s got a good record of helping us win here, and we need his leadership for the April 1 court race, and on to 2026.

All of this.

President Trump told the American people that he wanted to be a dictator on day one. Now in office, he and his administration are making good on that promise with illegal and unconstitutional actions that directly threaten Americans’ economic, personal, and national security.

Susan has got to go. About 1 year 8 months before she’s up for re-election in a state trump lost. Get organized, get to work, donate.

Constantly focusing on all the shit Trump is doing is hard and depressing. I’m trying to focus on things I can do now to make the coming months better-starting with donating to @wisdems.bsky.social & @crawfordforwi.bsky.social - this is a critical race for the WI high court, it will be expensive.

Trump just imposed a 25% import tax (i.e., tariff) on all imports from Colombia — the top supplier of coffee consumed in the United States. Since that tax will be passed along to American consumers, coffee prices are expected to rise dramatically.

Trump pardoned a child molester.

I'm running to be Wisconsin's next State Superintendent! The primary is on February 18th. What an honor it would be to bring my experience as a teacher, a principal, a superintendent, and community leader to this important role.

House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries: "House Republicans are celebrating pardons issued to a bloodthirsty mob that violently assaulted police officers on January 6, 2021. What happened to backing the Blue?"

ICYMI: While the WI GOP spent the first 2 weeks of the legislative session ignoring issues Wisconsinites care about, Dems were hard at work finding ways to lower prescription costs, fund free school meals, and provide tax credits to low-income households.

J6ers pardoned yesterday included those who assaulted officers with metal batons, fire extinguishers, wooden planks and poles. They even admitted to it and pled guilty in court. They should be in prison. The only reason they aren’t is because they did it in Trump’s name.

Biden preemptively pardoned J6 police officers who were beaten and injured, to protect them against retribution from the insurrection leader because they dared to testify truthfully before Congress. Trump pardoned the thugs who beat them.

The pardon power of a President should be eliminated.

President Trump has pardoned 1,500 people who stormed the Capitol four years ago to block his successor from taking office, including 174 charged with using weapons or assaulting police and conspirators who plotted "to oppose by force the lawful transfer of presidential power."

If I “inadvertently” rendered a Nazi salute, I’d be sick to my stomach. I’d be devastated about the bedtime conversations I forced Jewish parents to have, trying to reassure frightened kids. I wouldn’t laugh it off, and if I could laugh it off, it would mean it wasn’t inadvertent at all.

PARDONED: This disturbing video has always stuck with me. Albuquerque Head of Kingsport TN was sentenced to 90 months in prison for using a stolen riot shield to attack police officers. Thanks to President Trump, he will walk free.

Shame and Disgrace. The USA is entering a very dark era.

I was right then. I am right now. I will be right tomorrow. So I persist ...

#NeverForget

Orange Blob is so full of shit.

The TikTok ban passed the House 360-58 and the Senate 79-18. When we say Biden banned it or Trump will save it we seem to forget the role of our Legislators. This oversight is part of how Trump has been able to argue for unitary power. People think presidents already have it.

Ffs, tech billionaires suck.

Trump wants to cut the corporate tax rate to 15%. This would give... -The 5 largest banks a $4.1B tax cut -The 5 largest drug makers a $3.1B tax cut -The 5 largest US oil companies a $2.5B tax cut -The 5 largest grocery stores a $1.7B tax cut Some populist, huh?

ICYMI: After 30 years of Wisconsin's checking account running a deficit, we've ended every fiscal year I've been governor with a positive balance. Today, we have a $4.5 BILLION positive balance, and a record-high balance in our state savings account. #WhatWIAccomplished

Perfect response.

Policy and action, not thoughts and prayers.
