Trump should be deposed for igniting a trade war with our allies, threatening to conquer Canada, allowing cyber criminals to steal our private data, & giving aid & comfort to our enemies while crashing our economy.

I know our community wants kids to be able to drink clean water.

We had everything ready to get clean drinking water to Cornwall, New Paltz, and Middletown. HISTORIC stuff.

None of this is partisan. It isn't even remotely political!

Yet it'll all be gone if this bill passes.

Our party has spent almost a decade retreating, failing to comprehend, understand, or respect the information battlefield.

Now? It’s time to stop “being leery” and start being bold.

Find the fucking line and hold it.

U.S. government workers “have no value.”

Not hyperbole, not doom and gloom: Every person in America is going to— in Trump’s own words— “feel some pain.”

Not just fed workers. Not just teachers, nurses, workers, the elderly, the sick…
Everyone is going to suffer, and we MUST tell the story why.
In interviews with NBC News, many federal workers share stories of overwhelming stress, personal crises, rapid weight loss, panic attacks and more amid job cuts and a barrage of messages that federal workers have no value.

📌Everyday I watch members of the Democratic Party capitulate to authoritarianism.
The economy is being tanked, a racist billionaire is rifling through OUR personal information, we've surrendered to Putin, and the promise of social security is no longer.
If you aren't fighting against this?
FUCK YOU

Reporters need to start asking Trump if he’s a Russian agent.

We’ve seen reporters ask Trump to say bad things about Russia or Putin & he resists. Be more blunt.

Say: A lot of people, on both sides of the aisle, are saying you’re a Russian agent. Are you a Russian Agent? Do you work for Putin?

This is how Dems on the Hill need to message on Trump’s economy instead of pussyfooting around!
