Please repeat over and over: “Bending to the whims of a bully will not end his cruelty. It will only embolden him. The response to authoritarianism isn’t acquiescence. Bullies respond to one thing, and one thing only: a punch in the face.” —Gov. JB Pritzker

Fucking moron

Impeach. Convict. Remove.

This President is a fucking joke.

This!!

Pete “WhiskiLeaks” Hegseth. Make it a thing.

Hopefully they're working to advance the story but it is really important that the @nytimes.com and @washingtonpost.com cover the incredible breach of national security that occurred when Hegseth, Waltz, Vance, Gabbard etc added Atlantic EIC Jeffrey Goldberg to their war plans text chain.

Among the material devastation to everyday people, Senate Dems have now blown a hole in their ability to work with the House. We had an agreed upon plan, House took immense risk, then Senate turned around midway and destroyed it w/ a fear-based, inexplicable abdication. They own what happens next.

@aoc.bsky.social is the defacto leader of the Democratic Party. Follow her lead

Never vote for a D who supports this. This is utterly pathetic

Spend every dime to win the house. Primary senators who sell out

Chuck Schumer needs to step down as leader. He clearly isn't lock in step with majority of democrats. This is bad. Im so angry with his caving. Listen shutdowns suck but this "CR" sucks even more and it's not even a clean funding bill. Pathetic.

@senatedemocrats.bsky.social it’s time to vote on new leadership before it’s too late!

More of this!

If Tesla's stock drops far enough, the bank loans Elon took out to buy Twitter lose their collateral and get called back immediately. Which is why Elon is panicking, Trump is panicking, and their shadow backers are all panicking.

So drumpf wants to cut spending in government. Yet we taxpayers are paying $17.8 million for him to play golf since he was inaugurated. If he is so wealthy why doesn't he pay for this himself? The ultimate in hypocrisy.

This MUST be part of the platform!

It's the entire email list for all DOGE employees. Have fun!

I feel like at this point there’s a very specific pathway for a populist party whose message is “just kill these motherfuckers”

Democrats even *thinking* about joining Republicans to censure Al Green for having the courage to stand up while they sat down do not deserve to be able to generate a single fundraising dollar from a person of moral character ever again.

Got a printer? You can start fighting fascism. Here's a thread of things you can print and distribute. 👇 I promise doing something--even this--feels better than raging silently. And maybe it'll show you that standing up is possible and open you up to more things you can do.

This is weak. Do more

I’m the dairy farmer running in the special election to replace Elise Stefanik in New York’s 21st Congressional District. Can you repost this, give me a follow, and help spread the word?

I think Dems should consider doing hearings of their own outside of Congress. Rent hotel ballrooms, bring our own witnesses, make our big arguments, get stuff on the record. Early topics - illegal/unconstitutional disassembly of US govt, Trump selling out to Putin, his reckless econ policies.

Every accusation is an intention.

Many caveats here. I don't understand much of this myself. I'm only trying to learn—not come to conclusions. I post this only to ask if anyone with relevant expertise has seen this video—and its many charts—and finds it compelling. (Do ignore the splashy title—this is a dry and sober assessment.)

@senatedemocrats.bsky.social @housedemocrats.bsky.social Please run on removing Musk from the US and canceling all his contracts. We need to hear you say this. Step up!

Musk just gave the game away in his interview with Joe Rogan. He said that it's because of Social Security that "people are living longer than expected"—which coupled with a lower U.S. birth rate creates a situation he finds intolerable. He _is_ a Yarvinist—and he's coming for our Social Security.

Hi, hello. In order to grasp the significance of Trump crowning himself a King, you have to understand that he is literally carrying out a plan crafted by Curtis Yarvin, a right wing extremist, to overthrow democracy and replace it with dictatorial rule by a monarch-CEO.

Why aren’t we shedding more light on that cockroach, Curtis Yarvin? He needs to go. #Yarvin #fuckmusk

“Lapdog vice-president.” A seething op-ed from JD Vance’s hometown paper, the Ohio Capital Journal, is not impressed by his first few weeks in a “nondescript role as an appendage in the Trump-Musk administration."
