We should've made a bigger national crisis of someone breaking into Nancy Pelosi's home & trying to kill her husband. But then, we should've made a bigger national crisis about hundreds of someones breaking into the Capitol & trying to steal an election. But then, we should've done lots of things.

STOP THE STEAL OF OUR DEMOCRACY!

Join us this Monday, 2/17 @ 11:00 am outside the Federal Courthouse @ 300 Quarropas Street, White Plains, NY.

Exercise your 1st Amendment right to protest (not only) Lawler (but also Trump, Musk, Vance, Bondi... the list goes on).

Democracy dies in darkness.

They’ve called armed federal officers to the scene. We aren’t dangerous. We are here to represent our people. To defend public education. This is an authoritarian regime. You cannot block members of Congress from entering the Department of Education.

The bird flu data removed from the CDC MMWR included crucial information about the risks of bird flu to people and pets. The data suggests an infected cat might have spread the virus to a human adolescent.

This focus appears to be on Musk only, when it's he and Trump working in unison to dismantle the government and seize govt. agencies unlawfully and unconstitutionally.

The U.S. SCOTUS ruled the president* has immunity for "official acts" none of this is within his authority.

Wow. So not only were several bird flu studies left out of today’s CDC Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report, some data on bird flu briefly appeared in the online report and then was quickly removed.

I tried asking Rep. Mike Lawler whether it's good government to have an unelected, unvetted 19-year-old and former Neuralink intern working for DOGE who now has access to high-level federal data on millions of Americans and has sway in federal employment
Lawler just gave me an incredulous look

Pritzker: "He promised he was gonna lower costs & make us safer. He's done none of it. I realize he's only been in office 2 weeks, but it's gotten worse, not better. You think grocery prices have gone down? No, they've gone up bc of what he's threatening or what he's already put in place"

The President of the United States will come into office with his own social media platform.

That, combined with X, means Trump will have turnkey state-run media.

I don’t think the media has fully grasped that yet.

Having watched politics unfold on social media for a decade now, I can tell you one of the failures of the left has been relying on a handful of influencers(for lack of a better term) with a million followers instead of building an army of 100k of us to to do the heavy lifting.
