The annoying spam texts destroying the Democratic brand:
$678M raised through those spam tactics
$282M to one consulting firm: Mothership Strategies.
$11M to actual campaigns (1.6%)
The party isn’t just treating donors like marks—it’s being fleeced itself yet continues to back Mothership.

The people of Texas urged us to do anything we could to stop the Trump Regime's attempt to take political power away from millions of working families.

That’s why we’ve decided to deny quorum and fight this power grab with everything we’ve got. #txlege

There is a reason we have a full complement of emotions. Sometimes, anger is absolutely justifiable. Anger is a driving force. Anger motivates. Anger helps us to stand up for those who can't. Anger shows you care.

Congress should pass the bipartisan BARK Act, my bill to save millions of pounds of perfectly good pet food from the trash and get it to the growing population of hungry shelter dogs and cats.

I'm not worried about receiving health care at the VA. I know the vast majority of VA health care professionals are fully committed to treating all veterans. I'm worried about how Trump's executive order normalizes retribution against anyone who doesn't align with him and his followers.

Trans people account for 1.3% of the population. That is not counting nonbinary people that do not explicitly identify as trans (other surveys put that number at an even greater 2-3%)
If there are 52,000 accredited journalists, you'd expect 676 transgender ones.
Where are they in our major papers?

My more optimistic take on the whole “did the protests do anything” debate is that here is value to showing you are not alone and that a massive number of people are willing to come out and be public even in very far right areas.

On a sunny April afternoon in Seattle, about 40 people, gathered at a beer-and-pizza joint to do something unusual: listen to a company’s earnings call. They were there to take on Elon Musk.
They cheered and booed under a disco ball. A local TV crew showed up. The vibe was giddy.

The Definitive Story of Tesla Takedown
In February, a Bluesky post caught the eye of Alex Winter. The result is a coalition of environmentalists, anti-Trump advocates, and federal workers that’s been hyping Tesla’s stock slide ever since.
