I will use every tool at my disposal to protect this country from Trump. I will litigate to defend voting rights until there are no cases left to bring. I will speak out against authoritarianism until my last breath. I will not back down. I will not bow or scrape. I will never obey.

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too. EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them. Here’s our shareable guide ⬇️: (pt. 1/2)

The American Bar Association (@americanbar.org) called on "every attorney" to “insist that our government, a government of the people, follow the law.” @democracyforward.org is heeding that call and will continue using the courts as the frontline to challenge unlawful actions... (1/2)

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.

Women deserve to know the TRUTH about the impact of Texas' total abortion ban. Today, I along with Rep. Gerry Connolly, Rep. Summer Lee, and Rep. Ayanna Pressley sent ANOTHER letter calling on Texas to explain why it won't release maternal mortality data from the past 2 years after Dobbs.

President Biden is using his farewell address to warn us about the dangers of the oligarchy threatening our country as we speak. We must heed his warning. We have to stand up and fight. Our very existence depends upon it.

The craziest thing about trump's cabinet nominees is that he's an adjudicated rapist and convicted felon who incited insurrection against America and should not have even been allowed to run for fucking office.

The incoming felon-elect is willing to send our troops to “take back the Panama Canal” in order to stop their government from investigating his businesses there, but he says that lowering the price of groceries here at home will be “too hard.” Anyone else see a problem here?

Just thinking about all those Trump voters with pre-existing conditions who didn’t know the ACA they voted against was the same thing as the Obamacare they rely upon while electing an idiot who hired the psycho who is going to make Polio, whooping cough, mumps & measles great again at the same time.

You can put lipstick on a pig, you can polish a turd, and you can put an adjudicated rapist and convicted felon in the Oval Office, it won't change who they are. He will forever be a convicted felon. A lame duck with no mandate. Don't just give in to him. DEFY HIS ASS. #TheDefiance

So, according to MAGA - Joe Biden pardoning his convicted felon son is disqualifying, but Donald Trump BEING a convicted felon is not? Do I have that about right?

I think DeSantis would probably be okay as SecDef. He’s a jerk, but he’s not crazy. He’s a conventional guy; his problem as a GOP presidential candidate was that he couldn’t convincingly play a nut job on TV. But it’s sad that the best we can hope for these days is “not crazy.”
