So this, @cademocrats.bsky.social and @gavinnewsom.bsky.social , is how even a lifelong-Democratic voter starts ghosting the party and changes registration.

Schumer and friends.

(FYI, "lifelong” means over 40 years of voting, prop 50 “yes” vote, and a Kamala-donator you’ve now alienated forever)

Thomas Massie to CNN on the Epstein files: "This vote is gonna be on your record for longer than Trump is gonna be president. And what are you gonna do in 2028 and 2030 when you're in a debate … and they say, 'How can we trust you? You covered up for a pedophile back in 2025.'"

BREAKING: At Pope Leo XIV’s urging, U.S. Catholic bishops just delivered the strongest rebuke of a sitting president in Church history — condemning Trump-Vance raids as “inhumane” and “dehumanizing” in a 216–5 vote.
NEW: At Pope Leo’s Urging, Bishops Issue Historic Rebuke of Trump’s Raids
Nearly all U.S. Catholic bishops united in Baltimore to denounce the Trump administration’s “inhumane” deportation campaign — a near-unanimous, unprecedented moral stand against a sitting president.

Can we just take a minute and acknowledge that our POTUS is right OUT IN THE OPEN lobbying Congressional members to vote against releasing the Epstein files?! Like... what the fuck else does anyone even need to know?

We need to replace many, many awful Democrats but let's not forget that we need to replace literally every Republican, and we also need to put a huge amount of them in prison for treason or sedition

THIS!!!

I mean, I’m really trying not to disrespect the front-line staff (for reps) who want to make a difference in the world.

But at some point the urge to ask “you realize you work for a stands-for-nothing-but-continued-self-employment-asshole, right?” overwhelms me.
“Hey, boss, I’m getting a lot of calls from people who think you’re an asshole. No, like, a LOT of them. It’s tying up each of our lines; nobody else can get through. Yeah, VMs swamped, too. Something measurable seems to be happening, wow! Yeah, idk! Crazy!”

That, I think.

Since the Democrats worked extra hard to hide who actually supported this, I think the No Kings/Resistance position should be to primary every Democrat unless they publicly call for Schumer's ouster this week

Either they go into total rebellion mode, which they won't, or the people will

Democrats would do well to remember that trusting a party defined by deceit and bad faith isn’t just naïve, it’s dangerous to democracy itself.

How about we shut down the government for this very popular and specific goal and then, hear me out, we hold out for like a month and a half and then, ok this part is important, after a watershed election where we ran the table, ONLY THEN, fold and don't get the one thing we said we wanted.

A Democratic United States Senator *actually believes* that when Republicans refuse to discuss ACA subsidies and laugh in her face, Americans will blame Republicans for the ensuing devastation.

What kind of drugs do Senators from New Hampshire regularly use? The rest of us need them now.

A reminder - last March, republicans promised to restore $1.1B in funding to DC in exchange for funding the government, and Mike Johnson never took it up in the House.
