Perfect caption.

Most Americans agree we need to get money out of politics. If that takes a constitutional amendment, then that's what we have to do. And if that's going to take years, then it's all the more reason to begin pushing now.

YES!!! please, of course.

From street marches to court battles to the ballot box - we’ve challenged the power of this exceptionally unpopular president.

The lesson from each success we've had is that we need to ramp the political pressure up, always up, not back down, now more than ever.

Yep. Always is and always will be. He knows nothing else.

Yep. Most corrupt SCOTUS in our history. Proving that fact with every decision.

Hear hear!
Remember the time Obama personally caught a fainting woman during his speech — rather than just blankly staring like a sociopath?

Character isn't something you tell people about.

It's something you live.

If you don’t know Lina Khan, now is a great time to know about her. She’s now on Zohran Mamdani’s transition team. She’s also the former FTC Chair, only 36, & committed to leveling the playing field for everyday Americans. She is an absolute star. This is what hope feels like.

All true. What a guy. This is what magats worship. UFB. 😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫
Like he’s been photoshopped into a chaotic scene…but it’s more than dementia. He’s never had leadership, empathy or responsiveness. He knows enough to be perturbed at not being the center of attention.

Lmao. She not only looks like a circus clown……
I love this with my whole full heart ❤️

Yep. I fight the thought that it’s already over. Not sure how long it will take to restore our country…
If a temporary resident of the White House can totally demolish the East Wing to build a gaudy ballroom, without any authority, approval, or regulation, he can tear down the rest of the White House to build a Walmart. That this destruction is allowed underscores how off the rails our country is now.

Ya think? Who condones this Stazi-style policing? Oh, yeah....too many among us.
If you’re driving around in unmarked cars, wearing masks, and kidnapping people, you’re not one of the good guys.
