Fight for freedom, save America. #HandsOff

💙 DC never disappoints. #handsoff

Massive crowd at Boston’s city hall plaza for the #HandsOff protest against Trump and Musk

Portland, ME showed up. #HandsOff

🇺🇸 Absolutely insane crowd here in Madison, Wisconsin — the Capital of Democracy! #Handsoff

Absolutely incredible turn out at MN State Capitol! #HandsOff

I have never seen anything like this in NYC. 5th Ave covered from 42nd St well to the 20s. Nobody prepared for this volume. Volunteers are holding the traffic on all the side streets. No police in sight. #handsoff

Demonstrators gathered across the U.S. on Saturday for a day of protest against President Trump and his policies. Read more: nyti.ms/3Ebi0oi

Donald Trump has committed the most profound, harmful and unnecessary economic error in the modern era. Almost everything he said—on history, economics and the technicalities of trade—was utterly deluded econ.st/3YbbFjq

I’m convinced that there isn’t any response quite as evil as saying to a suffering person “Everything happens for a reason“ or “It’s all in God’s plan.” Especially when their suffering is being caused by a reality that you voted for.

🚨🚨🚨Elon Musk has installed a private equity investor and one of his closest allies at the Social Security Administration. Musk says Social Security is a ponzi scheme and wants to cut it. Protect Social security. Fire Elon Musk. www.nytimes.com/2025/03/14/u...

Judge Boasberg is a hero.

Can’t emphasize this enough: if you’re feeling overwhelmed by the debased assault on our country, the antidote is connecting with other people in the flesh who are feeling the same way. There are millions of us.

Musk is a deranged, sick person who put out a tweet defending Hitler. Running interference for genocidal dictators who ordered mass murder is beyond the pale. Someone should educate him on the evils of the Holocaust. In the meantime he should be removed from his role—now!

Hundreds of people gathered at Patriots Park right now in Tarrytown for a Stop the Cuts Rally — holding Rep. Mike Lawler (R-NY) accountable for his vote to decimate Medicaid.

"The result of a bad deal—making concessions to Russia while getting nothing in return—will not be fewer attacks against Americans, but more." Remember when we understood that appeasement just emboldens dictators?

Firing half of the Department of Education's workforce is the first step in gutting the resources that our students rely on, from support for low-income and rural schools to special education programs.

Check out my new post! I do an emergency video analyzing the current fight over govt spending and the sheer maddening missteps of Schumer and others adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/emergency-...

WTF?!? Elon Musk reposted this on X before quietly deleting it: “Stalin, Mao, and Hitler didn’t murder millions of people. Their public sector employees did.”

President Trump's second set of tariffs — 25% on imports of steel and aluminum — could raise new car prices by $4,000 or more, according to one estimate, and used cars could also become more expensive.

POOF! Tim Parlatore is now a Navy Commander! No need to take any tests or earn it or anything. What a slap in the face to actual Commanders.

Jessica: If you look at the latest Quinnipiac poll, over 50% disapproval of trump himself, how he is handling the economy, how he is handling the federal workforce, how he is handling Ukraine-Russia, how he is handling trade with Mexico, how he is handing trade with Canada.

If Republicans want a partisan power grab for Donald Trump and Elon Musk, they won’t be getting any help from me.

"Instead of being the victims of Donald Trump and Musk and their crazy, nihilistic urge to just destroy government, you should be honored. You are the bedrock of our communities. There is nothing nobler than being a public servant" - @rbreich.bsky.social

Trump and Musk would love a shutdown. We must not give them one. From me in @NYTimes.com: www.nytimes.com/2025/03/13/o...

Them’s fightin words. Tonight at a new Broward schools task force assigned to review future of advisory groups, member Pete Tingom said committees that fail to get quorum may have poor leaders. Reps of Technology Advisory Conmittee & Broward ESE Advisory are among those who fire back.

Not 1 red hat for the townhall with Chuck Edwards.

holy shit this question at the Rep. Chuck Edwards town hall 🔥🔥🔥

Wow. Rep. Chuck Edwards is getting torn apart at a town hall in Asheville, NC. “I’m a veteran & you don’t give a fuck about me. You don’t get to do this to us!” Edwards orders veteran to be thrown out. We’re approaching a tipping point now. Anger across the country is going to boil over soon.

I'm at the Rep. Chuck Edwards (NC-11) #townhall in #Asheville 1200ppl in line for a 360-seat auditorium @indivisible.org @parkroseperma.bsky.social

I am holding two Town Halls in my district next week. My plan is to keep my constituents informed and remain accessible to them during this chaotic time.

Okay so, is Schumer voting for the CR because shutting down the government is worse? If so, why? And does the DNC support it? If not, why not? The problem with all this is that WE DO NOT KNOW.
