Today the United States attacked a sovereign state and abducted their leader.
The President has taken the powers of the purse, dismantled ethics and anti-corruption enforcement, and SCOTUS is complicit.
Enact the Blue State Anti-Corruption Compact.

Two-Thirds of the Country Has Known Trump Is a Pedophile for Over a Decade. The Interstate Crime Compact Puts Him in Prison, and It's 100% Constitutional.

Nations whose military commits war crimes have never before had that same military reject authoritarianism.
NOT. ONCE. EVER.

Blue state vs red state policy & how it shakes out - points from @carmitage.bsky.social in this post:

Red policy leads to early death and more gun violence amongst other things. Blue states also carry red states, so they need them yet we're trapped in red policy.

SCOTUS just approved the Texas gerrymandered maps. What're the odds they strike down the Democratic gerrymandering in California?

My advice to Democrat leadership is this:
"Stop fundraising, stop taking corporate money, start supporting the policies that will actually help your constituents."
Do more of what you are meant to do.
It's in the job description.
