For some reason Democratic leaders seem to prefer telling voters what they won’t be able to do, rather than what they’d like to do.
If Hegseth ordered a war crime and lied about it, shouldn’t Ds try for impeachment? Put Rs on the spot. They might get a few defections.

Jeffries says not to expect Democrats to pursue Hegseth impeachment over boat strikes

We can only fight this fire with more gasoline. We can only out man the mans with man. Surely this will solve the problem caused by man. This isn’t identity politics. How dare you.

Dr. Alice Mann’s righteous fury about the Minnesota GOP’s determination to screw over state’s poorest residents burns with the fire of a thousand suns.
Her retirement from the legislature is an enormous loss for all Minnesotans.

maybe we shouldn’t even say mutual aid and just start saying this isn’t anything special—this is community.
this is actually what being in community means. helping each other, realizing our fates are intertwined.
we are building community while the bad guys are trying to tear it down.

WE NEED THIS MOM IN THE SENATE
I can't count how many hours I've spent on the phone fighting with my insurance company over my daughter's inhalers.
We need to ban insurance companies' prior authorization practices - now.

One of my fundamental beliefs is that I should not have to talk to people who have been cruel to me. You might be surprised to learn how often -- and vociferously -- people disagree with me about that.

Disabled people were one of the first groups targeted by the Nazis.
They coined the term “useless eaters”.
They tested the gas chambers on us.
They knew most people wouldn’t fight to save our lives.
That’s why the President using the R slur is so dangerous.
We’re not expendable
