Schumer and certain other Democrats act as a Controlled Opposition, creating an illusion of resistance. They secretly align with the current government. Their loyalty lies not with the people but with maintaining their own interests, having been influenced by bribes.
I don't want to say the Schumer optics are bad but Gavin Newsom just invited him on his podcast.

Opinion | DOGE says it’s saving $100 billion. It’s about to lose a lot more.
Cuts to the IRS will backfire by giving tax evaders a free pass.

I miss having him as President every day, but I believe Michelle would have been even better.
It’s the 60th Anniversary of “Bloody Sunday” at Selma, and thus the 10th anniversary of President Obama’s speech there, my favorite of all his public oratory, although it reads differently now. 🧵

I believe Section 230 shouldn't be entirely scrapped, but we should discuss potential amendments. There's a significant distinction between platforms and algorithm-driven feeds that warrants this conversation.
I will absolutely be voting against Durbin in the primary at this point.
It’s time to repeal Section 230. We must be able to take social media companies to court for addicting kids and enabling drug trafficking on their platforms.
