We just walked out of the state of the Union. My shirt showed Trump an important message: NO KINGS LIVE HERE. In the spirit of student protestors from the Civil Rights Movement, I’m proud to have protested and walked out with many of my colleagues. This is NOT a normal time.

One of the problems, IMO, w/both Dems in Congress and the pundits screaming at them rather than the fascists is they still think fixing Trump is abt winning an election. That's a luxurious thought but wildly wrong-headed. Problem is winning enough non-, swing-, and GOP voters to halt things now.

Johnson is about to do ANOTHER CR to keep govt open until Sept, since he has been unable to pass his own budget. This was Johnson in NOV 2023: “I’m done with CRs. We are. We’re resolved.” He has repeatedly broken every promise he made in this clip, & is about to do it again.
