Trump wrongly indicted me. I’ll rightly impeach him.
Impeachment isn’t just an option, it’s a necessity. I know firsthand the lengths Trump is willing to go in order to silence dissent — but is it working?

Our new health insurance premium feels more like a shakedown‼️
Thank you, @politicsgirl.bsky.social , for sharing your story. You’re right—there are millions like you.
Our new premium is over $3K/month for a family of three. Could we scrape it together? Maybe. Should we have to? No.

Today in Politics Chat, I talked about how power sloshes around when a president is checked out, and noted that right now unelected officials like Stephen Miller are trying to grab it. But instead, We the People can take it back and create a better nation.

Overnight, Trump and Republicans in Congress shut down the federal government.
They shut it down because they’re determined to strip healthcare from millions of Americans, to enrich the billionaires they serve, to continue the assault on our rights.
We must fight back.

Still mind-boggling to me that Trump paid absolutely no reputational price in the media for massively endangering 🇺🇸 national security & shredding our credibility in int’l negotiations by unilaterally withdrawing from the JCPOA. Literally, it had no effect on The Narrative™️ of coverage about him 🤷♂️
America did make a deal with Iran. He broke it.
@TheEconomist: Some around Donald Trump will urge him to push for regime change in Iran in his second term.
But the president-elect seems unconvinced. America, he said recently, must make a deal with Iran because the consequences of not having one are “impossible” 🌐
