The people you represent would rather face a gov't shutdown than see you advance the GOP funding bill.

We will need a new set of rules which won't permit the firehose of blatant falsehoods pushed by companies like faux news. We will need a new set of rules which won't tolerate outside interference and attacks such as what Russia is doing now to tear us apart.

Once the dust settles, we will need a new set of rules that actually enforce the checks and balances we thought we had, but which turned out to be just a bunch of suggestions.

Orange Mussolini and Co are flagrantly breaking laws to push their agenda. Time and experience has shown that we cannot fight that while rigidly adhering to the rules and laws that they do not.

States are going to have to take stands in ways that are not legally valid, but which are morally correct

We all need to encourage our State and Local reps to actively push back on the coming fascism. Let them know we do not want it, and we fully support the steps needed.

Many States are already pushing back, but they're in the same trap of fighting against the firehose of big flashy changes that they use to distract from the quieter, insidious changes. It also keeps us off balance so that we DON'T start preparing for the next two, three, or four steps ahead.

The existing Democrats in Congress, with few exceptions, are utterly unwilling to diverge from the system which has enriched and empowered them. We cannot look to that group for change.

Change is going to have to come from We The People. Change will have to come from local activism.

We're kept off balance with this constant interplay of, they-say-lies and we tie ourselves in knots refuting the lies.

It focuses our attention on the wrong place.

They have a literal playbook of their long-term goals. We should be looking ahead three steps and fighting the truly evil shit coming.

There are many, many other models available. DeepSeek is getting a lot of attention right now due to its similarity with OpenAI's model(s).

Looking ahead, we (the People) are going to have to reach a point where we have to do what is right and unconcern ourselves with whether it is "legal" since Drumpf is now making the laws to suit his agenda.

Yes, fair, we need to organize, but we also need to communicate! Commercial news media is utterly corrupted, social media is all we have left.

I’m so tired of people being afraid of doing something “wrong” that it keeps them from doing something RIGHT.

I’m concerned about how anyone with half a brain would continue to keep RFK jr as their friend.
