If you’re zip-tying grandmas protesting losing health care maybe you’re not the good guys in the story?

Classic authoritarian behavior.

This excuse is so much worse than the accident everyone assumed it was. But strongmen can’t admit mistakes under any circumstances.

So here they are saying their OpSec is so bad that anyone can join a National Security group chat.
Wow — Mike Waltz on Fox News suggests Jeffrey Goldberg somehow schemed his way into the Signal group instead of just being invited by accident

A YES on cloture is a YES for the bill.

This vote was to start the process of the cuts. It WILL come back for a final vote.

There are some chances to slow or potentially stop it. Need constant pressure on GOP

Focus on GOP swing seats & key committees. Energy & Commerce is where the Medicaid fight will go down. Ways&Means for tax fight.

Please explain what just happened. Is there no way to stop this w the reconciliation to be used by GOP to get around the filibuster? Are we sunk?

Plainly unlawful and unconstitutional. No one can issue such an order; the President and his officers cannot simply ignore an entity created and funded by Congress.

The same Republicans saying we have to cut all these programs because the debt is out of control are going to enthusiastically back Trump’s trillions in tax cuts for the rich that will explode the debt (again)

We aren’t even obsessing over the fact that Elon is currently lobbying the president to send US citizens to an El Salvadoran supermax prison in exchange for bitcoin payments!

It’s not even in the top ten!

Privatize everything so they can make money off everything and gouge the people for everything. The dismantling of our government and society and leaving behind the most vulnerable.

Idgaf I’m still fighting for guaranteed healthcare.

Aspiration is the answer. Not just “we’re not the bad guys.”

We need something more meaningful than that. I want a future worth fighting for. They have no vision. We do. Lean into our strengths and knock them out. 👊🏽

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent.

Opportunities are everywhere.

Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

I am such a believer in this. Down-ballot is the way.

It’s also how we build a sustainable future of good leaders and infrastructure to elect and support them, as well as the movements they represent.

We don’t just need strong candidates. We need strong organizers, managers, CoS, grassroots, etc.
I’ve been organizing in rural areas since the first Trump administration. Rural Dems can make the difference in races at the top of the ticket.

Republicans have all of the electorate they’re ever going to have. Organize to turn out 5% to 10% more Dems in rural spaces. Watch what happens…

most of us were around during 2016-2020 but it feels like we've forgotten the biggest lesson: You have to *live*. you cannot exist in low grade constant panic. Yes it is bad, yes it will get worse, yes we know the consequences. But we still have to get through the day, and we are allowed joy.
