Newson while Trump blowtorches our democracy: “I wonder what Steve Bannon is thinking about right now.”

@aoc.bsky.social @sanders.senate.gov You guys are doing such a great job out there, I think I see a future for the party again. Forgive me if u already covered this but please don’t forget WFH in your efforts. Pro-union, pro-disability, pro-family, pro-worker and a huge environmental benefit!

Do you think he cried? I bet he cried. He looks like the type of guy who cries when he loses a substantial amount of money.

@alt-hhs.altgov.info any idea on whether OCSS (child support) is in danger? Such fucking bullshit all of this, MAGA = traitors

Every time i read this story w/ my daughter i cant help but see this instead…

It feels like things are happening so fast and there are a million great ideas on how to fight back but we need to slow down and coallesce. We need to think like a military. Leadership. Strategy. Training. Execution. Great article: newrepublic.com/article/1924...

Well thats it… the Dems obeyed in advance. We truly are on our own.

@schumer.senate.gov Please dont do this…

He also just rescinded telework for state workers. And he did it in the same haphazard, poorly thought out way Trump did for fed workers. MAGA must have slipped something into his pomade

@andyrichter.co Awesome to see u on Bluesky man! Fwiw, I still play Andy Barker PI episodes for a smile when im feeling down. Maybe RFK Jr can finally take down those nefarious chicken cartels!

@schumer.senate.gov Thank you for standing up for us and making a statement that the actions Trump admin is taking are illegal and thus do not deserve to be funded. Whether this gives them a chance to fire fed workers is a false argument because… they already are firing fed workers

@bera.house.gov I am really proud of my rep tonight, thank you for doing your part and pushing back on these fanatics and liars. We appreciate you and hope our Dem senators do the same!

@schumer.senate.gov Respectfully, Senator, you need to get control of your minority. Filibuster this bill to death or the Democrat Party has lost my vote. If you cant stand your people up and fight, we dont deserve the majority ever again.

@bera.house.gov I gave voted for you since 2014. If you vote for the GOP spending bill, I will not only never vote for you again, I will donate and campaign for anyone who runs against you.

@lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com Glad to have u here, just want to say i always look forward to your soliloquies, its how i round out my day before beginning my writing for the night. Always puts a smile on my face. I mean, its all bad news but your POV always brings some order to the chaos out there.

Email list for all DOGE employees Please ReSkeet!

We’re already seeing MAGA losing steam and its utterly disappointing to see Dems, instead of pushing harder, backtracking, apologizing and losing spine. Wasting opportunity

Newsom = Traitor

Hey… where the hell is Al Gore in all of this?

@bera.house.gov As one of your constituents, I cannot overstate how disappointed I am with your actions lately which are enabling fascism. I will be voting against you at the next opportunity. @algreen.house.gov was right. There can be no decorum with MAGA. We cant accept weak reps anymore.

Yes, or they should have forced them to kick every Democrat out. Why are they playing it so safe??!? What Dems can and cant do politically doesnt matter, its about showing strength.

There is one thing that separates humans from other animals and that is our spiritual reverence for fellow humans who have died. Primitive funeral rites were the first glimmers of religion among our ancestors. So if people dying because Medicaid gets cut DOESN’T bother you, you are not human.

I just saw an ad for one of those shady ozempic prescribers and they were touting grocery bill savings as a benefit of the drug. We are screwed.

Ever the optimist, I will say that dealing w Trump for Zelensky was always going to be a giant pain in the ass at every point, we really havent contributed more than Europe anyway and all Trump’s tantrum did was garner Zelensky even more support. Further death in Ukraine has Trumps stink all over it

Ramadan Mubarak to Muslims in #SacramentoCounty and around the world. May this holy month be a time of prayer and reflection with your family, neighbors and loved ones.

Pass it on. #StandWithUkraine

Wow @pamhemphill53.bsky.social proves how you can literally become a f-ing hero with just a bit of humility and self-awareness and yet how sad it is so few are unable to follow her lead. It can be so simple to write yourself a new story and turn something ugly into something beautiful. #WeDoRecover

Regarding Andrew Cuomo… guys, i think this may be the hypocrisy that is constantly repelling voters. You lose the ability to criticize someone else for their behavior when you support a democrat doing the same thing. @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social
