If you have a GOP Rep who is hiding, you can have a little fun while advertising to his constituents that he's a coward!

I think some in the Senate have convinced themselves that the backlash to folding will be limited to “the left” and therefore ignorable. Those people are deeply and profoundly misreading the moment and the stakes. Virtually every swing district House Dem walked the plank to vote NO for a reason.

There’s no reason to have a Democratic Party if it won’t go to the mat to save the Department of Education. It’s a fundamental belief that children in America deserve better futures. It’s tremendously simple. You cannot continue funding a government that would close this.

Many constitutional lawyers agree that there is a pending constitutional crisis, which will be definitively triggered if Trump refuses to obey a court order.

🧪The entire staff of the Department of Education’s NCES-a vital independent statistical agency - has just been RIFed. The continued erasure of data and evidence allows for the Trump administration to hide the impact of their corruption. #EduSky #Scisky @aeraedresearch.bsky.social @cossa.bsky.social

MSNBC: America is ALREADY burning down. The GOP budget has a HUGE PERMANENT negative impact on avg Americans. A govt shutdown hurts for a few days, maybe weeks. The GOP budget hurts Americans for years, maybe for life. Do better. Fight the GOP's destruction of our government & its loyal workers.

good to watch. but there's one part in here that most will probably overlook. stability, the constitution and the rule of law are magnets for capital. an elemental observation that's at the root of basically every study of economics and capitalism.

We’re less than 60 days in and already Trump’s second term is far down the path towards consolidating power in the ways modern autocrats do: - pardoning violent acts committed on his behalf - purging the civil service to stack with loyalists - opening specious criminal investigations read more…

This is the crux of it. Leaders change public opinion. Trump has radically changed public opinion. Democratic consultants who do focus groups aren’t who Democrats should be listening to—they should focus on leading the public and aggressively reshaping views of Trump.

Democrats must abandon consultant approved talking points, and start advocating for transformational policies that will improve life for millions. That means $10 childcare, free public university & trade school, #MedicareForAll, and a moonshot investment in domestic manufacturing.

Impending cuts to #Medicaid that the GOP House passed last week will be devastating to New Yorkers and the people of our town, many of whom rely solely on Medicaid for #healthcare. Call your local officials to ask what they are doing to pressure Congress and the White House to reverse course. #NY19
