Seems like saving Democracy is going to come down to a handful of GOP representatives more afraid of a mob of angry seniors in their district than one angry senior in the White House.

We're going on the third week in a row that Senator Ron Johnson's mailbox is full, a sure sign that he's tucked his tail and is running from his constituents. If you live in his district, please email him instead. Ron, you run, but you can not hide from the people who pay your salary.

let me say that this is the classic “just asking questions” approach to delegitimizing the achievements of black people. and critically, you don’t even have to be a black person who talks about race. simply being black to these people means you are “obsessed with race.”

Jeffries: Elon Musk has emerged as one of the most unpopular figures connected to the Trump Administration. Trump’s poll numbers are moving in the wrong direction, and it hasn’t even been a month. The real question is: What is the corrupt bargain that has been struck between Trump and Elon Musk?

Here’s the hard truth: this country’s people are tired of subsidizing billionaires. Want your cars to sell? Do it without subsidies. Want to shoot rockets into space? Get by without govt contracts. Want to build a website? Build your own internet first. We are DONE with you.

So the President not only fired the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs. He also fired the top JAGs at the Army, Navy and Air Force. Those are the lead people who determine what is a legal order and what is not. So if you're planning to do things that are illegal they're the most obvious obstacle.

Just look at these paragraphs from the AP story. Hegseth called Brown unqualified solely because he's Black. Then they fired him... and replaced him with a white guy so indisputably unqualified that he requires a Presidential waiver. This is what "merit" means to them. apnews.com/article/trum...

I get wanting Dems to do more. But unless you are specific like asking for quorum calls, all you’re doing is helping people give up. And many things you’re screaming for are on us not them. Martin Luther King Jr. wasn’t a Member Of Congress Rosa Parks wasn’t a Member Of Congress 1/

A defining policy battle is about to come to a head in this country. The Republican budget will force everyone - especially Congress and the White House - to make plain whether they are prepared to harm the rest of us in order to fund tax cuts for the wealthiest.
