This is actually funny.
(And a very unexpected plot twist imho)

I agree. Change my mind with facts, not opinions.
Yeah, that and "Technology will save us".

No, it’s not time for South Carolina Democrats to give up and start voting for Republicans.

Done!
We deserve a Democratic Party that is willing to fight as hard as we are.

We need new leadership in this moment and to get there, we need a chorus of support for change. Tell your Democratic senators to call on Senator Schumer to step aside as Minority Leader. It’s time for drastic action.

Bwuahahahahaha!!!! Durbin can’t be that stupid… but here we are.
If Durbin weren't retiring, he would be primaried, and he would lose.
Whoa -- Sen. Durbin went to up Leader Thune during the vote last night to tell him that on the shutdown vote and ACA promise that "8 of us are sticking our neck out that you're going to keep your word. I hope you will. He said 'I assure you I will,'" Durbin says just now

I have called my Representative and Senators to demand leadership change. These people are either complicit or incompetent. Change must happen.
Jeffries and Schumer are a team. h/t @aaronparnas.bsky.social

We need all new leadership for Democrats in DC. Replace every single one of them.

We’ve been here all along. It’s time to replace our current leadership with those who will represent us and not have to do the bidding of corporate owners.
Tuesday’s historic wins weren’t guaranteed. While business leaders, universities, and politicians from both parties were caving to Trump, We The People never stopped organizing.

This is true of leaders in business and in government. (Only a few people I’ve worked for have been good leaders.) It’s time for one last career change.

It fascinates me that giving to charities is considered noble and praiseworthy, but creating a society that doesn't require charity is considered socialist and bad.

Went to the No Kings protest in Hillsboro today — the largest such protest yet in a fairly conservative but ethically diverse small town 12 miles west of Portland. It was as cheerful a protest as one could imagine. I also got my library card and deposited my special election ballot.

This right here.
Yes, but it doesn’t matter. Even if we get a competent and trustworthy government again for some period, everyone should know that it can’t last unless structural and constitutional reforms are made. The fascists are among us and unless they are structurally disempowered, they’ll be back.
