Even though I vote Democrat, I’ve never been a member of the “vote blue no matter who“ crowd.

Reminder that people who voted third party or didn't vote at all are part of the reason why we're in this mess in the first place.

Defending your homeland from invasion is often a foreign concept for societies accustomed to invading.

Americans showed up in historic numbers last week and proved they're willing to back a party that stands up to Donald Trump.
We cannot have the leader of our party be a man that caves to Trump over and over again. It's long past time for Schumer step aside.

It’s a frightening reminder we cannot rely on many elected officials to stick up for the non-elites, for the working class, they will not stand up for the poor. We need to primary them if they lack the ability, stomach, and drive to fight for the people they represent.
Eight centrist Democratic senators just voted to reopen the government in exchange for a promise of a Senate vote on ACA subsidies.
That’s not a deal—it’s surrender.
They’ve given up real leverage
for a handshake agreement that might never happen./🧵

Schumer can be removed from his Dem leadership role this week - 23 Dems (and/or independents) just have to vote to depose him
And they should, given this is his fault.
And they should, given this is his fault.
This is a lovely sentiment but Schumer isn't up for re-election until 2028 and he knows this. At which point he will be 77/78. There's no mechanism to recall a sitting senator AFAIK.
Let’s be clear: Chuck Schumer is the one ending this shutdown, no matter how the votes read.
Chuck Schumer is claiming that he’s voting no, while letting other Senators (Fetterman, Kaine, King, etc) do HIS dirty work.
He must be removed from his leadership & primaried for the sake of this country

We deserve a Democratic Party that is willing to fight as hard as we are.
We need new leadership in this moment and to get there, we need a chorus of support for change. Tell your Democratic senators to call on Senator Schumer to step aside as Minority Leader. It’s time for drastic action.

The year is 2025.
Much of the US seems more afraid of diversity than dictatorship.
It is Election Day, & there’s fear it could be the last.
You cast your ballot & confirm each of your friends has voted. (Nag if necessary.)
You change the course of history.

It's impossible to overstate how much of what ICE is doing on the ground reflects this completely preposterous conflation of hostile *speech* and hostile *conduct.*
The First Amendment protects—or, at least, is supposed to protect—the former up and until it's a "true threat," which none of this is.

From Bovino's deposition: (1) he calls protestors "violent" if they articulate views hostile to ICE, even if no violence is manifested; (2) he instructs his forces to attack and arrest protestors who express "hyperbolic comments," which is to say, criticism of ICE and Bovino.

By trying to declare ANTIFA a terrorist organization, Trump is calling every person who fought against the nazis a terrorist. It’s very telling.
