"We cannot mistake anger at Republicans for enthusiasm for Democrats." @shannonrwatts.bsky.social and I break down why it's time for Mr. Schumer to step down. Full talk: charlotteclymer.substack.com/p/my-convo-w... Sign the petition calling for his removal here: www.change.org/p/boycott-co...

Not only do we not have red flag laws in Montana. We have an anti-red flag law bills about to be passed.

I love badass Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett. This is the kind of messaging we need.

"Shalom" translates to "peace" in English, while "Hamas" translates to "Islamic Resistance Movement”. You know, if facts matter?

Musk’s status as a “special government employee” limits him to 130 days in the executive branch. However, despite working daily—documented by his own X posts—they claim he only works one day a week, effectively stretching his limit to 130 weeks. This needs to be brought to Congress—please share.

18F was doing exactly the type of work that DOGE claims to want – yet we were eliminated shortly after midnight. Read our letter to the American people: 18f.org

The best commentary I heard basically compared JD and Trump to her abusive partner. “I would hear ‘You should be grateful’ just before the slap.”

We apologize to our Ukrainian supporters. We are embarrassed by how our president and vice president have behaved. We are fighting to redeem the soul of America. 🇺🇸

I am disgusted about what happened today in the Oval Office. It was shameful. I can only hope that the rest of the world understand that he does not represent all the people of the United States. I stand with Ukraine 🇺🇦

There is some good books on the history of the postal service. Here an idea. Let’s all start buying them from independent bookstores and taking them (or mailing them) to our representatives offices.

Today marks the last day of my mother’s 45 years at FPIA and JSI. In her career she has helped so many - especially women and girls. I am proud of your work. John Snow, Inc. mission is to improve people’s lives around the world through greater health, education, and socioeconomic equity.

So proud that my sister’s law firm is among the firms pissing Musk off and taking Trump on!

The Trump Administration has fired the top government ethics official. The independent agency is responsible for preventing ethics violations and conflicts of interest in the Executive Branch. You can’t make this stuff up.

The CFPB was dismantled over the weekend, with all activities suspended, its funding reduced to zero, and its headquarters temporarily closed—removing a crucial layer of oversight for consumer-facing financial companies. Staff members ordered to cease all ‘supervision and examination activities.

Received a letter from POTUS today purporting to remove me as Commissioner and Chair of the FEC. There's a legal way to replace FEC commissioners-this isn't it. I've been so fortunate to serve the American people and stir up some good trouble along the way. That's not changing anytime soon.

Think firing the entire federal workforce will save America money? Federal civilian employees account for just 4% of the federal budget. Even if someone like Musk—or any president—fired all of us, it wouldn’t make much of a dent in government spending. Don’t fall for it.

Senator Andy Kim just went to the USAID building, talked to the security guard there to confirm employees are being barred entry, and then did a press gaggle right there in front to call it out. This is doing something. This is making an effort on messaging. Other Democratic lawmakers: take notes.
