Other than the facts that the majority in the House hates us, the minority in the House forgets about us, & they’re all in recess, I’m sure this will work out just fine. 🙄

Again, the Union that represents the people most directly impacted by a shutdown is saying that the CR is WORSE than a shutdown. Can you imagine how bad the CR is for the Union to say a shutdown is better? Listen to workers. Listen to the Union.

Any Senate Democrat who votes for cloture should have to spend time at schools across D.C. answering questions about why they care so little about the lives of D.C. residents.

Chuck Schumer’s office phone is (202) 224-6542. If no one answers, it’s probably because they’re too busy screwing over the people of DC.

Ok, so shutdowns hurt Govt employees & the country. Shutdowns are not good, BUT the largest Fed Govt employees union, AFGE, says the CR is WORSE than a shutdown. WTF is Schumer doing?!? He’s siding against workers, w/Elon, & royally screwing DC. talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/bigge...

Congress’ ignorance & maliciousness towards DC, our people, & our government are the reasons why. They don’t know us, understand us, or care about us. They’ve made their careers off of ‘hating DC’ & this is what happens. Those are the reasons why.

Yeah, a clean CR wouldn't do anything this dirty to the 700,000 people in DC.

They only way this happens is when Congress is led by a toxic mix of ignorance & evil. There's no other way to explain this. This is where we are, it's shameful & dangerous. #HandsOffDC #DCStatehood

They won’t even let us spend our own fucking money. We’ve had 28 years of balanced budgets (including this one), but since they can’t doing their fucking jobs they’re purposely & maliciously screwing the 700,000 in DC who are denied congressional representation.

They don't actually care about crime in DC or so-called 'law & order.' They don't care about domestic battery if the abuser is a Trump supporter. They don't care about justice, they care about power.

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.

The biggest ‘threat’ to DC is our lack of #DCStatehood. It creates uncertainty & instability in our government, our politics, our economy, & our safety.

Again, this is about Prez Musk, VP Trump, and their friends getting richer, and the rest of us getting screwed. Not really hard to figure out or message.

This moment is begging for a leader & group to tap into an ‘US (we the people) vs THEM (Elon, Trump, & the oligarchs)’ populism. It seems pretty darn straightforward.

I just want to say for the record that when the history books are written centuries from now, I believe the election of Donald Trump in a free and fair election in 2024 will go down as one of the most senseless and self-destructive own goals in human history

Just to be clear, this means Trump’s U.S. Attorney for D.C. has fired almost every domestic violence prosecutor in the office. And because we’re not a state, D.C.’s attorney general can’t bring felony charges against domestic abusers. www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/202...

i think it is important to say that the open and explicit racism of the president and the vice president isn’t just uncouth or “controversial” but a direct attack on tens of millions of americans and a dereliction of their duty to represent the entire country
