"I am a member of no organized party; I am a Democrat."

A classic saying and a reminder that our Party is NOT PERFECT!

But they align with my values, and they represent our best shot to fight Trump.

Continuing to hamstring them is NOT A SMART PLAY.

And I will fight you if you try.

The most valuable piece of career advice I give young people is that being good at your job is not as important as the right people liking you. Just look at Bari Weiss.

I was not expecting a guilty verdict. I hope Judge Dugan is successful on appeal. I’m concerned about this emboldening this lawless administration.

I respectfully disagree with the jury’s verdict in the Judge Hannah Dugan case.

The trial evidence showed that Judge Dugan did not obstruct ICE agents from arresting an undocumented immigrant.

Let’s see what happens on appeal. Meanwhile, our support for Judge Dugan continues.

It just puts into stark view the way that stupid people feel emboldened to spout idiot opinions they would have feared uttering prior to the morons in the current administration. Including dear idiot papa.

Of course those two homophobes from Real World named their kid Evita, of course they did. If I remember correctly AOC also referred to her (Evita) positively, did anyone check out that persons actual life beyond a fictional play?

The Secretary does not have the authority to end a Federal Agency.

That power belongs to Congress.

The President doesn't have that power either, though he's been taking it, and Congress hasn't punished him for it.
Why is the suggestion illegal? Honestly TSA is mostly security theater anyway but I don't see why it's illegal to say this.....unless.....she has stock in some private entity which will get contracts to take TSA duties on board, which seems in character for the Trump Admin.

Unlike the Republican party, the Greens, and the "Palestine supporters", AIPAC is funded by Americans domestically and is not funded by a nation that is a US enemy.

If we go by social media likes & quotes, it seems people DO care what I said, & are quoteposting you to show what stupidity looks like.

We have the votes to extend the ACA subsidies and save healthcare for our constituents TODAY.

But Republicans would rather send Congress home, attack abortion care, & let premiums skyrocket.

The shame and sham of it all.

Speaker Johnson must bring this bill to the floor NOW.

the senate. The few who didn't vote NAY likely had to beg for special dispensation because they know "80% of [our] voters don't agree with [us]."

Dems not fighting the allegation of being the party of civil rights anytime soon.

Cold comfort though this is, it appears that a suspension of federal funding awaits any hospital who allows that care to be provided on site, so it's a bit of a distinction without a difference.

The real comfort, for me, is that Dems voted against this garbage at almost 100% and we'll kill it in
For folks curious re the news re gender affirming care for trans youth I wrote a quick summary in the BDNH newsletter

It’s NOT a national ban.

it creates no new civil or criminal penalties, it is a proposal to wield the power of the purse to discriminatorily deny care
