Last night, Senate Republicans blocked a measure to protect and expand access to IVF. Again. 👀 Watch what they do, not what they say. Thank you Sen. Duckworth.

Today would have been my friend John Lewis' birthday. He often said, “Never stop fighting. When you see something wrong, you have to call it out. Never give up, and never give in.” In his honor, we must promise to continue fighting for justice — today and every day.

France spent a considerable sum of money to aid American colonists to defeat England. France never demanded our minerals as a payment for assisting. France ultimately became an even more wealthy nation because the United States existed. Freedom isn't a transaction. But it should be an export.

It is SO important that we organize locally right now. The discord is available for larger coalition meetings and resources, but for a strike to be successful we need strong regional coalitions as well. Find yours here: docs.google.com/document/u/0...

I think most people are intuitively aware of this but something like the official White House account posting an “ASMR” video of shackled immigrants is not just cruel for its own sake, it’s intentional envelope-pushing to ramp up to desensitization over inhumane detention, camps, and deaths

My takeaway from tonight’s town hall with @jayapal.house.gov? Millennials we’ve got a lot of work to do. We’ve gotta show up and make our voices heard. That ball was filled with a lot of old, retired white people there who won’t have to live with the consequences of Trump for too long. We will.

At @jayapal.house.gov’s Community Forum tonight. Glad to see it’s a packed house. And so far she has a message that sounds like a plan, but let’s see what the Q&A finds.

If a Democrat had had planes falling out of the sky within a month of taking office and firing FAA staff, you’d know the name of every single fired staffer because they’d be on TV 24/7.

We need @petebuttigieg.bsky.social to hold daily briefings in support of Democracy. I would contribute to a fundraising campaign to support his efforts. Would you? @olbermann.bsky.social suggested that he schedule news conferences Sunday through Thursday, to dominate the Sunday shows. I agree.

I’m begging Democrats to stop talking about tax breaks for billionaires and the price of eggs! They are firing Air Traffic Controllers, stranding Americans in hostile countries, and getting ready to download our data from the IRS. No one is sitting around thinking “I’m worried about the deficit!”

Last night, I proposed a simple amendment to Republicans’ budget resolution: A 2 cent tax on every dollar of wealth over $50 million dollars for the richest 0.05% of American households. Spoiler alert: every single Republican voted NO on making the ultra-wealthy pay their fair share.

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too. EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them. Here’s our shareable guide ⬇️: (pt. 1/2)
