Thank you to the Democrats that held strong and voted against Donald Trump's budget. And my harshest condemnation to Chuck Schumer, John Fetterman, Kirsten Gillibrand, Maggie Hassan, Gary Peters, Angus King, Catherine Cortez Masto, Jean Shaheen, Brian Schatz, & Dick Durbin for selling us out.

“If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing.” A classic quote from Malcolm X, who was assassinated 60 years ago today.

We all know Dems have fumbled and fumbled this moment. They haven’t even Mueller Reported this moment. It’s on us to save us. Grassroots. People power. Diverse tactics. Whole society. (This is what @blackjew.bsky.social is getting at. ) We can do this.

I remain fascinated by the expanded child tax credit case study & the implications for leftist policymaking. People received REAL financial benefit from it. It drastically cut child poverty rates and it was rescinded without a real fight. I think about this at least once a week.

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

Democrats should not vote on a single Trump cabinet nominee until this federal assistance freeze is rescinded. Do not let up.

If you swore an oath to defend the Constitution, you are duty bound to refuse to comply with unconstitutional orders. If an illegal order purports to remove you from your position, you are duty bound to continue to serve.

Never thought the Trump administration was going to Defund the Police, but here we are. Local law enforcement is going to be screwed by this.

Democrats: what you need to all be saying, with a single voice, is "The United States government is in crisis, and our political and economic system may collapse, because Donald Trump is trying to throw out the Constitution and make himself a dictator."

For-profit health insurance is immoral. What do you mean you profit off working class Americans with cancer? As a society, we should all be in agreement that it’s wrong.

Its cold & snowy here in the Northeast. Terribly harsh for people living on the streets. When going out, lets remember them- they will surely need cash, warm socks, gloves. But for the grace of God, there am I.

Policy reforms in #Georgia should commit to a system designed to disrupt the school-to-prison pipeline, reduce harm to children, and rehabilitate young people in a cost-productive way. Read the full Georgia #OnlyYoungOnce report here: www.splcenter.org/georgia-juve...

Perhaps I've misunderstood all along and WaPo ownership views "Democracy dies in darkness" as aspirational.🤔

This is an incalculable loss but Nikki Giovanni lived a grand and interesting life; that will always be a gift. May she rest in power.

When they talk about privatizing Veterans’ care and Medicare, they mean allowing companies to provide healthcare for a profit. But how do companies make those profits? By denying care to many who need it. Don’t get fooled by the “privatization” label. It means “for profit” and YOU are the cost.

In case you missed it, a Wisconsin judge this week struck down former Gov. Scott Walker's Act 10 law. The move will restore public sector workers' collective bargaining rights. This is a moment of celebration and hope in these troubled times.

people say “you need to start living in the real world” but they forget that the real world includes lupines and lightning bugs and ginger beer and starlight and sea coasts and Renoir paintings and Rachmaninoff’s piano concertos and fog banks and foxes playing in snow.

As we head towards January, it is our turn to use this period productively. Hoping that Trump fails is not a plan. We must develop and foster new movements, structures, tactics, platforms and leaders to oppose Trump and articulate a positive vision. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/buil...
