We need leaders who act like the opposition party.

And Doug Jones nails it—something we have been saying too: the Democratic Party can’t just rest on hatred for Trump. They need to give people something to vote for.

I’m working on a longer thread on this, but to be very clear, we do not issue social security numbers (SSNs) to undocumented immigrants or foreign workers. If they have an SSN, they are documented. They may be a refugee or asylum seeker or have Temporary Protected Status. But they are documented.

C”mon Dems. Make them buy your support for the bill. Demand something in return and don’t vote for this bill if you don’t get it!

Walz: "I wouldn't do those town halls if I were them either because they have to defend cutting Medicare, cutting Medicaid, hurting their local public school, fighting a trade war with Canada. Just the nonsense, and defending President Musk."

Holy shit, a whopping 56 percent of Americans DISAPPROVE of trump's abysmal handling of the economy.

This is lower than any other point even in his first term.

PASS IT ON.

Today on Volts: the costs of accommodating all those new data centers on the grid are being subtly shifted to ordinary electricity ratepayers, via rate cases. And in the process, Big Tech & utilities are forming an unholy alliance against grid reform. Two Harvard Law scholars get into the details.
Who is paying for all that data center power?
Legal experts Eliza Martin and Ari Peskoe explain how data centers' massive electricity demands could shift billions in infrastructure costs onto regular utility customers.

We second this
Federal employees are OK with a shutdown, if it gives needed leverage to stop the cuts. A short shutdown (<a week) can have benefits, if the DEMs could actually be assertive.

I am excited to introduce the Protect Social Security and Medicare Act with @doggett.house.gov and Rep. Maxwell Frost.

We all pay into these programs and are counting on them for essential healthcare and a dignified retirement. This bill will protect them.
