Just called @padilla.senate.gov and @schiff.senate.gov to tell them that the bar for my vote and dollars is being set right now by @booker.senate.gov. If @schumer.senate.gov isn't willing to support the baseline of action we should expect, he should be removed as leader. I urge you to the same.

Congrats, they heard you! The Social Security Administration has decided tonight to abandon its plans to end phone service for millions of Americans filing retirement and disability claims. Thank you to all who shared our post and made calls today—you did it!

Do you know why a president would do all the most evil and heinous shit via Executive Order? Because his party can't easily make it law. And if they can't make it law, they can't make it last. Don't let anyone make you feel like this is The End. Do not let them demoralize you. Live to see them die.

California Governor Gavin Newsom invites Trump to visit the state to see the crisis firsthand, emphasizing the need for leaders to focus on helping displaced Americans rather than peddling lies and disinformation.

This is a very big deal ! — we know we need to lock arms together and one way to stand together and against the incoming Trump admin is the action of supporting Earthjustice who will continue to fight for US. They have won 85% of their cases against Trump’s government and our environment 👇🏼

This story from the Idaho Capital Sun seems significant: "Pete Hegseth, president-elect Donald Trump’s nominee for secretary of Defense, has close ties to an Idaho-based Christian nationalist church that aims to turn America into a theocracy."

Absolute truth...

It’s really something to watch the Party whose supporters poop on the floor in the Capitol and wipe their feces on the wall tell us which bathrooms to use.

Bill Ackman wants to assimilate us all back into Twitter to "avoid fragmentation" and "keep people together." 😬 This is a screenshot because I'm not giving him the traffic.

Since 60k of you have followed, I figured I would reintroduce myself. Aaron Parnas. I’m 25 years old, a lawyer, and a Gen Z Democratic activist. Now’s the time to band together, build community here, and fight back. Repost this, give me a follow, and let’s build community here.
