I called my senators today and told them I want Cory Booker to be the senate minority leader. We can’t hold hearings. We don’t have subpoena power. We can’t pass budgets. But we CAN filibuster, and we CAN change party leadership.

The administration is removing phone support for Soc Security recipients. Making it more difficult for seniors to get their checks. It’s a back door way to cut SS benefits. Horrific. If you know anyone who is impacted, please help them get online to get their benefits approved

There's an incredible Congressional tone deafness to the moment that we're in. We've got agencies being dismantled by an unelected billionaire and a guy named Big Balls. Meanwhile, Congress is raking leaves as a forest fire roars behind us.

Ready for a show of a herd of bulls in a china shop if it can take attention away, from the horror unfolding in real time. Federal agencies —crash and burn, credibility of storied insitutions —sublimate, public news network — starve until death and the human cost around the world— who knows?
