I will tell you what I expect from Democrats. If they do these things I will praise them to high heaven. (1) Routine objections, even nonsense ones, in the Senate, and objecting to unanimous consent on *everything.* Grind the chamber to a halt. No progress on anything until Musk's goons are gone

Can you imagine losing to one of the worst presidential candidates in the history of this country and then acting like you don't need to fundamentally change your party. Money has rotted our political system.

@schiff.senate.gov, why is your voicemail full and why do you only have one office to contact? @padilla.senate.gov has six. Do better.

Every lawyer who signs their name to a brief or pleading arguing the president can cancel birthright citizenship by executive order should be disbarred. I'm dead serious.

When I was a Hill staffer in 2009, a Dem trifecta was trying to pass universal healthcare. In response, Senate GOP released a memo detailing all of the tactics they in the minority could use to delay the effort as much as possible. I'm recirculating that 2009 GOP memo here. Take inspiration from it.

Suddenly, out of nowhere, a declassified World War II-era CIA guide to sabotaging fascism in the workplace has become one of the most popular free ebooks on the internet: www.404media.co/declassified...

This comments section is the first time I've felt even a shred of hope in eight days.

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.

It's sort of difficult putting in a solid day at the law factory when you get a push alert every 10 minutes that makes you wonder if law is a real thing anymore

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.

@padilla.senate.gov @schiff.senate.gov @levin.house.gov I am your constituent from 92677. I already called and used your contact forms. I implore each of you to avert this constitutional crisis by impeaching and convicting President Trump. With him in office, the federal executive is illegimate.
