Thank you, Senator, and I hope more of your colleagues follow your lead and speak up loudly, clearly, forcefully, convincingly, as often as possible. This is what "Leader" Schumer should be doing, every day.

Why has the NYT story: Trump Family's Cash Registers Ring as Financial Meltdown Plays Out not been getting more attention? Isn't this just the kind of corruption and grift that needs to be exposed? @chrismurphyct.bsky.social @jahimes.bsky.social

Sign ( bad pun) of the times: a bunch of grandmothers ( including me!) fumbling around at Michael’s and exchanging tips on materials for protest signs! Let’s gooooo!

This segment from @maryannefranks.bsky.social is an incredibly tight argument that captures the breadth of the Trump assault on free speech perfectly and in less than a minute. Spread it far and wide.

The Republican playbook on the Hegseth leak is to lay low and play dead, knowing that soon another major scandal will grab the public’s attention and we shall forget about this egregious news. Life under Trump goes on, until we lose all power. Because Schumer…

@schumer.senate.gov you are disenfranchising democrats and enabling Trump. The old rules do not apply any longer. Time to step down.

@chrismurphyct.bsky.social please vote No on cloture. And work to replace @schumer.senate.gov. He is no longer the leader we need.

The governor of Maine stood up to Trump publicly, and this is targeted retaliation.This is how autocrats instill fear and compliance in the general population. He is threatening journalists, lawyers, and rewarding compliance and submission. Historically, this tactic works.

Another ominous development: The Social Security Administration is no longer allowing parents in Maine to register newborns for SSNs at hospital after birth, is instead requiring them to visit a Social Security Office to register their children. www.pressherald.com/2025/03/06/s...

@jahimes.bsky.social Very disappointed by your still unexplained decision to censure Rep Green. Rep Raskin's reaction skillfully calls attention to both the hypocrisy and the profound damage the Republicans are inflicting on our Country. Which your vote somehow condoned.

@chrismurphyct.bsky.social @jahimes.bsky.social Thank you both for your efforts and courage in the face of threats and retribution, most likely. Your courage and integrity are in short supply lately, and are much appreciated. Proud to have you both as my representatives.

Feeling safer yet now that Trump is president??? Unvaccinated teens dying from flu, chief anti vaxxer is now going after SSRIs, anti psychotic drugs, weight loss drugs. Epidemiologists are fired as the bird flu is starting to show up in humans. And this is just in HHS…
