Please step down as minority leader.

@booker.senate.gov is our leader now.

It’s still hard to believe the simple fact that this is all self-imposed. Everything that’s happening right now wasn’t the result of some foreign adversary destroying the country. We did this all to ourselves by electing the dumbest motherfucker to ever rule a nation.

Was able to speak for a while this morning as @booker.senate.gov enters Hour 13 of holding the Senate floor.

With two glasses of water and sheer determination, he’s telling the world that America is fighting back against this President.

Go Cory!

I couldn’t sleep, so I watched his speech again. And then I made this because, honestly, I’m going to need the reminder. Maybe you will, too.

Ditto
I won't be live-tweeting the inauguration.

Mainly, because I have no intention of watching even one second of it.

The road to hell is paved with advance compliance—of men to patriarchy.
When WaPo owner Bezos nixed cartoon of richest men/corps buying safety that empowers the patriarchal boss they helped elect, Pulitzer winner Ann Telnaes resigned—did not comply—be like Ann—reject patriarchy, embrace democracy!

“People are contacting me on our Facebook page that live at least an hour away from here, saying we need a resistance group. We need a progressive group to join, and you are the closest one, and they're coming to us.”

H.R. 9495 chills free speech by allowing the Trump admin to attack organizations that disagree with him.

Designation as “terrorist-supporting” would destroy reputations, devastate finances, and silence critical advocacy.
Congress Must Oppose Legislation Threatening to Punish Nonprofits That Disagree With President-Elect Trump
This bill provides no real protection against an executive branch led by Donald Trump, who has repeatedly threatened to retaliate against organizations he believes are his political foes.

Contact your senators!
BREAKING: The U.S. House just passed a bill that could devastate nonprofits, chill free speech, and hand Trump unchecked power.

Why H.R. 9495 is a disaster waiting to happen and why the U.S. Senate must reject it. ⬇️
