Any Democrat thinking about running in 2028 must commit to firing Kash Patel on day 1. There is no reason why he should be allowed to serve 10 years.

Having served with many career federal employees, I can comfortably state with conviction that these dedicated, non-partisan public servants are the essential backbone of our society. What Trump is doing is a gift to our adversaries and catastrophic to a functioning government.

A good moment to remember the Russia thing was always real. Trump's goal is to help Russia and Putin, always has been. He's trying to throw our democratic allies under the bus and America as well. Again, the Russia thing was always real.

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general. If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

Donald Trump and Elon Musk going after the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau tells you everything you need to know about their priorities. Instead of lowering prices on "day one" as Trump said, he's raising costs on families by letting Wall Street cheat them.

Love this idea for Dems or SOMEONE compelling to fill the communication vacuum with regular deliveries of truth & clarity. I’ve seen @petebuttigieg.bsky.social suggested; who else would be a good candidate? Spread the word….. the country needs this.

I will say again: The destruction of the CFPB—an agency that has brought in $20 billion over a little more than a decade despite having an annual budget that's less than what DOD has spent so far today—is the clearest sign none of this has anything to do with saving taxpayers money.

At this point, the “short term pain, long term gain” perspective is not just wishful thinking; it’s lending credibility to an authoritarian project.

This is the way… “The elected officials in Washington have to stop protesting in Washington. They have to go back to their districts…show the consequences…show the school that isn’t operating…they have to make it real.” With social media, word will spread to neighboring districts—even red ones.

What these nihilistic vandals are doing to dismantle science & medicine—generations of expertise & public service & life improving benefits—is cultural revolution level national self harm. No foreign foe could inflict such brutal damage & senseless suffering on US so fast & effectively & unresisted.

We need to fight hard and we need to fight to win. We need to bring aggressive litigation. We need to stand in the town square and say we will be stronger than the billionaires are and call out what Trump is doing is wrong. That is what I am doing every single day. I hope you join me!

If you're feeling despair it's because you have a moral compass. It means you're not empty on the inside - that you nurse hope and a sense of justice in a cage next to your heart. You're one of my people and I'll stand with you. There are more of us than they want you to believe. Hold fast.

We condemn the conservative fed appeals court for ruling that the federal law banning the sale of handguns to 18 to 20-year-olds is unconstitutional. Guns are the #1 killer of American children/teens & more children will die w/ more guns in the hands of young people. amp.cnn.com/cnn/2025/01/...

If you’re angry that Congress is idly standing by while Trump seizes absolute authority through brazenly illegal power grabs—restructuring the entire government around his own cruel and arbitrary whims by executive decree—you should call your representatives and tell them: 202-224-3121
