What real leadership looks like.

Thank you, President Barack Obama, for standing strong with California, defending our rights, and fighting for the people of this nation.
Obama applauds Newsom's California redistricting plan as 'responsible' as Texas GOP pushes new maps

Join us for a rally at the University of Houston at 9:30 AM on Saturday, July 26th. Then sign up to testify, starting at 11 about this redistricting scheme by Republicans to seal seats from Democratic voices.

Link in bio for details!

Over 100 people in Congressional District 29 showed up this morning to protest the redistricting scheme. Instead of helping Texans, the GOP are making a power grab ahead of 2026.

America cannot long remain free, nor first among nations, if it becomes the kind of place where universities are dismantled because they don't align politically with the current head of the government.

Take all the time you need with this because you’ve got 3½ more years to ponder:

If you sat out the 2024 election, you voted against your own interests too— by way of abstention.

Green: I will suffer whatever the consequences are because I don't believe in the richest country in the world people should be without good health care. I stood up for my constituents then. I'm standing up for them now. I would do it again.

Thread: good advice but I want to emphasize that the Democrats (amorphous org that runs the party and electeds at the top) are different than the people who call themselves democrats and fight for the ideals they’ve been sold. Those people are fighters, working harder than ever, and organizing now.

Anyway. The Democrats suck. Democracy doesn't.

If we want to organize effectively, we should probably do so on values and principles that people actually believe in and not around individuals or vacant and inauthentic dipshits looking to focus group their next message.
