Dear Journalists,
I would like to share two maps. One is the area where the protests in LA are taking place. The other is the area where the US Constitution is under assault by a tyrannical regime.
Any questions on the relative scale of the two stories?

It was not clear if the deportations happened before a D.C. federal judge ordered the administration to stop using wartime powers to deport anyone immediately, and turn around any planes in the air.

These are the same Senate Democrats who lectured the base for years about the importance of preserving the filibuster so it would still be available when Democrats were in the minority

The terrible CR Budget bill — written by right-wing House Republicans with no input from anybody but themselves — was passed tonight with the support of 10 Democrats.
An absolute failure of Democratic leadership. NOBODY in the Senate should have voted for this dangerous bill.

The first rule in fighting tyranny is to never capitulate in advance. You broke that rule. You are not up to the moment as a leader.
My YES vote is *not* an endorsement of this deeply flawed CR.
My YES vote is 💯 about refusing to shut our government down.
I refuse to punish working families and plunge millions of Americans into chaos.
I will never, ever, ever, ever, ever vote to shut our government down.

Many hours have passed and I’ve thought about what happened in the Senate some more.
And you know what? I’m still mad as hell.
I may just repost their names every day until everyone knows them by heart.

Republicans’ partisan spending bill turns the federal government into a slush fund for Donald Trump and Elon Musk.
It’s unthinkable that any Senate Democrat would hand them a blank check by voting for cloture.

@democrats.senate.gov if the Democrats won't even try, there's no point to vote for them.
Vote progressive or third party in the midterms. The Democrats will happily throw everyone under the bus to keep their congressional salaries and insider trading information.

We need a third party. The DNC does not represent the people.
The CR passed in the House will provide a blank check for Trump and Musk to continue their savage war against working families, the elderly, children, the sick and the poor in order to lay the groundwork for massive tax breaks for billionaires.
This is a bill I cannot support.

Europe must be able to defend itself- it's as simple as that
We are at a historic moment and the stakes have never been higher. We cannot depend on the USA as an ally or as a guarantee for our security. Our only option is to move quickly, to unite and to defend ourselves together.
