Whenever I hear the pathetic president speak, it reminds me of Rainman saying ‘I’m an excellent driver’.

CALLS ARE WORKING - it has bought us precious time, but we NEED to keep the pressure up.

Tomorrow is the cloture vote.

KEEP CALLING: (202) 224-3121 ☎️☎️☎️

Tell your Dem Senator to vote NO on Cloture and NO on the Republican spending bill.

Do NOT assume your Senator will be good on this. Trust me.
🚨 Everyone needs to call their Dem Senator right now. They are starting to cave.

Tell them:
1. Vote NO on Cloture
AND
2. Vote NO on the Republican spending bill.

Don’t let them pivot to reconciliation. GOP doesn’t need Dem votes on that and they know it.

TODAY is the showdown.

Okay, Schumer's speech was a head fake. This is the Senate D caucus trying to fool their own supporters. Sorry to say that but that's what's happening.

It should be very clear to every Senate Democrat that any vote for Cloture will also be considered a vote for the bill.

People aren’t going to be tricked with procedural games.

They know exactly what is going on.

Defend Medicaid.
Vote NO on Cloture.
NO on bill.

Word on the street is that dems are set to endorse it tomorrow by voting yes on cloture.

You're part of the problem

Sen. Angela Alsobrooks is refusing to directly answer Chris Hayes’s questions about voting no on cloture.

NOT A GOOD SIGN. It should have been a yes or no, and he asked over and over. Nothing but weasel words.

The fix is in, folks.

Europe and Canada should ban X immediately. It's Putin's propaganda and an existential threat to democracy globally. They should also put tariffs on anything Edolf sells.

Here is my latest reflection.
The attack on President Zelenskyy shattered the last of our wishful thinking.
Many countries hoped that if they fawned over him, he would pick on someone else.
Now we know: that we either stand up or get dragged into the abyss.

The world has witnessed the most disgraceful political tantrum of all time. Trump is not the leader of the "free world." He is convicted felon who doesn't deserve to be in the same room as President Zelenskyy.
There is no going along to get along with this thug.
Canada needs to stand with Ukraine.

Feb 28 is the national boycott of American companies.
Tomorrow I am holding a press conference with Quebec Amazon employees who were fired by Jeff Bezos.
He is a toxic oligarch and a pal of Trump.
I am calling on all Canadians to support the Amazon workers and boycott this shitty company.
