I am very politically active and write/call my congressman often. I have lived in his district for almost 2 decades. I have never seen him in person and it’s not for a lack of trying. No town halls. No visiting his district. I’ve never seen hide nor hair of Sam Graves.

It’s more important now than ever that we never forget what MAGA did on J6.

We don’t DO kings here. youtube.com/shorts/wRVbZ...

Just a random reminder that trickle-down economics was invented by conservatives in the 1980s to justify massive tax cuts for the wealthy and corporations. It’s been nothing short of a disaster.

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

To hell with his hatred. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/to-hell-wi...

Proud American, ashamed of the president.

Trump is a goddamn traitor to America. Any congressional Republican who supports him — or is afraid to stand up to him — is just as much of a traitor as Trump.

If you’re cheering for a South African sociopath to fuck over US military veterans then you should probably stop with that America first bullshit.

The shareholders at Tesla would probably like to ask a similar question: "Elon, what did you get done for us last week, other than further alienating our most likely customers with your obnoxious fascist stunts?

Not content with purchasing the presidency, Elon Musk now wants to buy the Wisconsin Supreme Court as well. His PAC just pumped $1M into supporting anti-choice right-wing extremist Brad Schimel. Wisconsin — don't become Musk's latest acquisition! Vote @crawfordforwi.bsky.social.

Oh John Lewis, we need you now more than ever Rest in Power 😔

There have never been kings in America. The monarchy doesn't start now.

Raskin: "It's becoming obvious to the American people that Elon Musk and Donald Trump are not opponents of corruption, they are agents of corruption."

My new favorite drug is Republican members of Congress getting yelled at in their districts by constituents who hate Musk.

DOGE = Department of Gross Errors

This is going to get bad. Trump has fired top military leaders and military lawyers. This means only one thing. He wants only loyalists to do whatever he wants with the military. Only the American people can stop Trump and Musk.

Holy crap. At his town hall last night, Rep. Rich McCormick compared *his own constituents* who asked him tough and fair questions to January 6 insurrectionists

trump wants to be able to tell the USPS not to deliver ballots to blue states www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

— Accidentally fired workers trying to contain bird flu — Accidentally fired workers overseeing our nuclear stockpile — Accidentally fired workers providing health care to Native Americans “Accidentally.” More like gross incompetence and mismanagement. Opposite of efficient.

We must all band together. There are far more of us than there are of them. Never forget that, no matter how difficult this may become!!

WATCH: the demented Elon Musk takes the stage at CPAC, brandishing a 'chainsaw for bureaucracy' like some twisted super-villain. www.pbs.org/newshour/pol...

No, but if you’re looking for one, I am aware of a guy you work with that was indicted four times and convicted of thirty-four felonies.

Connolly: "The fallacy of Musk's argument is they never look at revenue. They only look at expenditures. If you want to save social security, it's a fairly easy fix. Raise income threshold subject to withholding tax & you can extend social security by 40 to 50yrs. He doesn't want to talk about that"

I love that badass Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett has absolutely no fucks to give. She will lay the facts out and doesn’t mince words, she also doesn’t give in to political pressure to stay quiet. National treasure.

🚨NEW: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is planning to fire Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff C.Q. Brown, a 4-Star General and 41-year veteran of the Air Force who flew over 130 hours in combat as a fighter pilot. REPOST if you stand with General C.Q. Brown against Hegseth!

When FAA employees are telling us it’s not safe to fly, we should probably listen.
