Listen. I believe ardently in criticizing our leaders for their failures and inaction but if you refuse to acknowledge their efforts when they do make them and if you refuse to recognize a step in the right direction, you don’t really want change. You just want to complain.
Right. The most salient point is that he could have done this over the CR, but now he's just using the energy of the filibuster without its power.

Authoritarians depend on you obeying in advance and not resisting. Every act of disruption weakens them and slows down their plan. It's a crack. The cracks add up. This is why what Cory Booker is doing is important compared to the weak complicity of Schumer and others.

Three questions to ask anytime Trump puts out an executive order demeaning the trans community in the name of "protecting women:"
1) What is he trying to distract us from;
2)Are cis women *actually* protected; and
3)What are the best ways to both respond to bullies and support trans folks?

Today, on National Girls and Women in Sports Day, Donald Trump announced another lawless executive order to bully and demean the trans community—this time attempting to ban trans women and girls from playing sports with their teammates. www.nbcnews.com/nbc-out/out-...

i'll be blunt, if you are someone who is vocal about the ways that diversity efforts "divide the working class" but silent about the ways that *actual racism and discrimination* divide the working class, then i think you're just an opportunist
Trump’s Attacks on DEI Get Approval From Some in the Left Wing
Many Democrats and activists are rallying to defend diversity programs, but others say they distract from deeper efforts to address inequality.

The world’s richest person, without any actual authority, is infiltrating entire govt agencies and gaining access to sensitive info.
And it's being done in an effort to slash federal spending in the name of "efficiency" so America’s wealthy can get another huge tax cut.

Hey Congress , do something . Specifically the Dems
So if I’m understanding today correctly, the world’s richest person Elon Musk, whom no one elected, is taking over federal payment systems and employee data while the federal employees who investigate and prosecute public corruption are being fired en masse.
