Polls just closed in Wisconsin.

If you're in line and reading Bluesky, I'm guessing you already know that you should stay in line.

Democrats aren't sitting around moaning and groaning. (Well, maybe some are.) Here's what we got done today.
Text in white on navy blue background: WHAT DEMOCRATS DID TODAY FEB. 14, 2025 * Senator Chris Murphy and Representative Maxwell Frost reintroduced the Office of Gun Violence Prevention Act * House and Senate Democrats rallied outside the Department of Veterans Affairs to stand for veterans and VA workers * Democratic attorneys general filed a federal lawsuit to challenge the decisions Elon Musk has made within DOGE * Virginia House Democrats passed constitutional amendments aimed to protect reproductive freedom, voting rights, and marriage equality * Representative Sharice Davids pushed the Department of Transportation to implement FAA safety reforms that Congress passed last year to improve air traffic control.

Incompetence in Washington puts every American at risk, no matter how you voted. No one should be happy that the DOGE team - the same folks who randomly published classified U.S. security information online today - wants access to your bank account & Social Security numbers.

Democrats have got the unity and fight to oppose Trump’s illegal and monarchical decimation of Congressional legislation and federal programs.

We will show up wherever and whenever the rule of law is under attack by Elon Musk and his interns.

Can anyone explain to me what the function of the Democratic Party is today and how it is serving that function?

Are they still around? If so, is there any evidence of that?

When I read a new interview from Harris’s Dep Campaign Manager, it hit home for me because it was something I have warned about for years. Dems are losing the Information War, but there is one big way they can turn things around. open.substack.com/pub/meidasto...
