RFK is a eugenics freak first and foremost and everything falls downstream from that. he *wants* excess deaths. he thinks that only the "fit" should survive.
These motherfuckers are going to kill children. I've been saying it for a year, but RFK Jr might as well be a serial murderer.
Watch: they'll start vaccine *bans* within a year.

Please do something more than just sit there in the SOTU. The entire party should get up en masse and walk out. Take the news cycle away from this tyrant.

Here are the options on the table (which are not mutually exclusive):
1. House Dems bring articles of impeachment*
2. Senate Dems play constitutional hardball and obstruct everything
3. State AGs litigate (and prosecute) everything they can
4. Citizens march en mass

Let's all say it out loud. These people are fascists & this is a fascist take-over of the United States. You can couch your words more carefully, but the speed and ferocity of what is happening now is part-and-parcel of a coup. The GOP in Congress has surrendered. The Dems are out of their depth. 1/

The future is more fluid & contested now than in many decades.
Many old political conventions & constraints are dead. Change is afoot.
Americans must dream, design, refine, inspire, & organize how to improve our communities at all scales & on all fronts.
Democracy like our lives depend on it.
