@repjoecourtney.bsky.social Cowardly and calculating are not traits we're looking for in our Democratic leaders. We're turning out in the millions to do our part, and when the opportunity to cast a vote to impeach, you side with the "Kill It for now" crew. Stand up and be counted or get out.

What a great way to celebrate Litha! Our house wren babies left the nest today. We got to watch one of them take his first few flaps. In these times, we all need moments when we can look to simpler things and enjoy the moments we are given. This was a great moment.

@repjoecourtney.bsky.social May this support of ICE haunt you at every town hall. People without the courage to support their oath of office need to step aside and make room for people with conviction.
I went through all the protest bills in Congress this session. Most are brought by GOP & increase penalties for protest - save one named for a Jan 6 rioter that bars detention for political protesters. Only 2 Democratic bills protect protesters - both from Ilhan Omar theintercept.com/2025/06/11/p...
As 75 Democrats Vote to Praise ICE, Ilhan Omar Wants to Hold Police Accountable for Protest Abuses
Trying to pass laws to defend protesters’ rights is a lonely battle on Capitol Hill.

A week in Scotland reminded me of what I want to see in this country right now. No matter where we went, from the Capitol to the highlands, I felt safe. Not just because of the lack of guns (though that certainly didn’t hurt) but it was mostly just the people and community. (1/5)

Trump has set up a new club where CEOs, tech bros, and foreign oligarchs can pay $500,000 to join in order to get access to the Trump Cabinet who will all be there regularly.
Just because the grift is all public doesn’t mean this isn’t the most corrupt White House in history.

A tricky thing about modern society is that no one has any idea when they don’t die.
Like, the number of lives saved by controlling air pollution in America is probably over 200,000 per year, but the number of people who think their life was saved by controlling air pollution is zero.

Trump backed Israel mass murdered first responders. IDF ambushed multiple ambulances, a fire truck and their personnel (15+), executing them on-site, burying the bodies along with the vehicles and lied about it while denying safe passage to search for the missing first responders.
