It's not just the White House site - suspect it's on every govt site. Anybody know how we could post a truthful version of the shutdown somewhere more visible than govt websites? Goggle maps/weather apps/Spotify/etc??

If Trump is convicted of treason c/would the govt seize his assets? The US Treasury could sure use all that unconstitutional/illegal crypto profit & who knows what we'll have to fix in a few more mos. It's a real question

What might make GOP reps feel safe enough to vote their true beliefs? Some are lost causes - true christian natlists - but not all. The std line seems 'make them fear us more' but maybe we've got it wrong & should be asking 'how can we help you feel safe(r)'. I would value Rep Kinz's reflections

I love the story of someone sending flowers to Perkins Coie! Kudos to whoever you are. Is there or could one of you talented people out there create a 'Gratitude for Resistors' app that could organize thanking the publicly courageous?

As he began speaking on the Senate floor Monday night, Cory Booker said that he intended to disrupt “the normal business of the Senate for as long as I am physically able,” citing his belief that “our nation is in crisis.”

He wasn’t kidding.

Rep. Jayapal: "If you try to eliminate birthright citizenship, jail people for free speech, slash funding, use Cold War-era regulations to do mass deportations, then yeah. You're going to get nationwide injunctions. So maybe if you don't like the injunctions, stop doing the illegal stuff."

We’ve never freeloaded. The US war machine is also a money-making machine.
The U.K. was repaying the cost of WW2 until 2006. We were darning socks and rationing food while the American youth were racing their T-birds down the PCH.

There's anger because Biden did get a lot of shit done, and wasn't rewarded. But that's because it was invisible to most people. The state/local level is what is falling apart. No new trains. Almost no new housing. Everyone wants development, but we get nothing.
