i'm surprised by how low energy and farcical that whole military parade situation was. I was expecting Moscow 1945 and we got Spirit Halloween instead.

Thank you @booker.senate.gov
I’ve taken the Senate floor and will speak for as long as I’m physically able to lift the voices of Americans who are being harmed and not being heard in this moment of crisis. Watch here:

Aren’t his kids Indian?
It is the position of the administration that a post saying “Free Palestine” or talking about diversity should ruin your life, but a post calling to hate people from India should not. That’s their moral sensibility. Nazi scum.
He's not a "kid." He's an adult, with an important govt job.
The posts weren't "stupid." They were hatefully racist.
His life isn't "ruined." He lost a job.
Holding a govt employee accountable is not a "reward" for a journalist. The reporter doesn't get a cookie.

So here’s my take: he’s rolling out all of these ridiculous edicts knowing there will be serious pushback. And because Dems can’t stand to watch people suffer, he will propose what he really wants - tax cuts - and the Dems will agree. And then he will claim victory.

All that management consultant garbage from the 1990s about getting work/life balance right. As soon as we get it right, it's wrong.

The entire Democratic Party, must speak with one voice, to every American, in front of every available mic, a simple, common refrain:
Understand what is happening.
Trump's Administration is working to part out and sell off the YOUR country, to the highest bidders.

The inability of the entire legal system — prosecutors, judges, justices, lawyers — to hold Trump accountable will be judged one of the greatest failures of American democracy.
I’m just saying, if there was a whole report released by a government body detailing evidence of crimes I committed in multiple jurisdictions including the District of Columbia, I’d be spending my Christmas in lockup

Democratic leaders must stop bringing pillows to a knife fight. Use the tools available to protect the American people from the Trump-Musk MAGA fascists. Voting, donating, volunteering, peacefully protesting has not worked. Sign the petition.
