DEMOCRATS IN CONGRESS: there have been times when you controlled the House & Senate, yet Republicans still found ways to block your legislation. DO THAT TO THEM! And—since the GOP won’t hold hearings, go home to your districts & hold mock hearings yourselves. Let the people see what’s really up!

I never ask people who they voted for. It's none of my business. However, if someone chooses to tell me that they voted for that racist prick, that is the height of entitlement and that is the last conversation we will ever have.

It's been said for many years . . . 𝗗𝗲𝗺𝗼𝗰𝗿𝗮𝘁𝘀 will feed 100 people in fear that one person will starve. 𝗥𝗲𝗽𝘂𝗯𝗹𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗻𝘀 will starve 100 people in fear that one is undeserving of a free meal. Over the past decade we've learned that "𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗲𝘀𝗲𝗿𝘃𝗶𝗻𝗴" has a great deal to do with skin color.

"We know you’re out of power. We understand you’re in the minority. We hear that, loud and clear. What we’re not hearing is your anger. We’re not hearing your outrage. We’re wondering whether or not you actually hear us." charlotteclymer.substack.com/p/comms-advi...

A clear explanation of how the Trump/Musk power grab will do untold harm to us all. This is a 5 alarm fire. No president, regardless of party, should have such direct control over the disbursement of federal funds. Now, a thread on what to do:

This is great post Charlotte Clymer. I am reposting and I hope every single person on Bsky reposts and reposts and reposts. WE need to light a fire under our DEMs in Congress. Action is needed to save US Democracy & that action is needed NOW.

Wow. Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde fearlessly calls out Trump and Vance to their faces. This is heroic. (posting in 3 parts due to Bluesky's 1 minute limit)

A new water monitoring program in Key West found that 20 percent of cruise ships are stirring up illegal amounts of sediment, which smothers coral. So naturally, the city council is considering defunding the monitoring program. (Source: Safer, Cleaner Ships newsletter) 🧪🦑

Started looking at legislation that @warren.senate.gov and @joshhawley.bsky.social offered to reform PBMs. Definitely resolves some important points. But I it ignores just how smart the big PBMs are. It also ignores that there are 25 plus Pass Through PBMs that do the right thing for sponsors

And this ball of suck was with a 4-3 GOP majority. Wait until you see what nonsense comes out of a 6-1 majority.

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.
