Before the midterms of 1866, President Andrew Johnson called his congressional opponents traitors and said they should be hanged.

Voters were so profoundly moved by his words... that they gave his opponents a supermajority in Congress, and the nation got the Fourteenth Amendment.

The JUDGES Act (H.R.1702) would let Donald Trump appoint 22 more loyalist judges who will greenlight his corrupt agenda. Join me and @standupamerica.com in urging lawmakers to block this dangerous bill: act.standupamerica.com/letters/cte-...
Vote NO on the JUDGES Act
The JUDGES Act would let Trump appoint more judges who would rubberstamp his attempts to cut essential services and attack our freedoms. Tell your lawmaker to vote NO.

Republicans say the SAVE Act would prevent non-citizens from registering, but that is already illegal.

The SAVE ACT is a blueprint for voter suppression, potentially disenfranchising millions of women and making it harder for poor people and rural Americans to vote.

Layoffs at NOAA, which warns us about severe weather

Attacking NIH, which finds cures for illnesses

Dismantling SSA, which administers Social Security payments

Terminating food inspectors and food safety committees at the USDA...

The "specifics" of DOGE put us all at risk.

I'm extra salty today, because my chronically ill, disabled, immunocompromised, elderly father, looked at me with haunted eyes and said, "And what happens if my Social Security just stops coming?"

And I wanted to burn the whole fucking world down. That he's living in fear is SO FUCKING WRONG.

Unelected billionaire Elon Musk and his co-president Donald Trump think this country should work for billionaires and everyone else should just bow down.

I joined Lloyd Doggett, @gregcasar.bsky.social, and over 3,000 people in Austin, Texas to deliver a message: We are not bowing down!

Bernie Sanders is holding MASSIVE rallies in packed venues, bigger crowds than Trump was getting, and legacy media is practically silent. Bernie is talking to workers rather than hanging out with socialites with mediocre plastic surgery at Mar-a-Lago, and it's just not interesting to corporate media
