It's a constitutional crisis and a coup, y'all. The longer we hesitate to admit this, the more trouble we are in.

Attention, abortion rights organizations who keep pushing compromises: Your opposition views it as a foot in the door toward bans. The state has zero business interfering in pregnancy decisions. www.idahostatesman.com/news/politic...

I am really frustrated that the press is discussing the destruction of USAID as something that has happened rather than an illegal action that will likely be undone in two weeks when courts tell the world that it was illegal.

- racist DOGE guy (redundant) canned - federal judge upholds birthright citizenship - another judge blocks voluntary resignation - NY state going to court over treasury business - patel put on ice for at least a week

but what I keep coming back to is that "DOGE" isn't real, there is no "Department of Government Efficiency," it's just something a billionaire made up and now we're supposed to just nod along and deal with the consequences

Hey so I’m a constituent and I’d truly like to know what you’re doing about really any of this. I mean this sincerely. You wanted to represent California, and now I want to know how you plan to do so. I’ll be calling your office for answers, and I’d ask my fellow Californians to do the same!

I appreciate that the data leak side is really, really bad but the actual headline here is that he wants to stop $4 billion a day in treasury spending Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

yelling at people to not give into despair is not actually an effective strategy imo. let people feel their feelings and when they’re ready they’ll jump in. generally we need like, 500% less admonishing of people who are living through hell.

They are watching our reaction. Will we lie down and take it or stand our ground? Throwing up our hands and saying oh well there’s nothing to do isn’t an option. We have to organize. We have to get in the streets. We have to ring our rep’s phones off the hook. Make it unbearable to ignore us.

I hear certain reddit threads are forbidding twitter posts. it sounds like an excellent idea. why advertise for them?

I'm angry and scared. I don't know how to shake the feeling and give myself hope. I would think with so many of us here, someone would have a plan. Does anyone?

We should do what one does with a rabid skunk. Name it Donald.

I remember when a “mean” tweet about Ted Cruz (who no one can stand, even on his side of the aisle) was enough to help derail one of Biden’s nominees.
