Dear Chuck @schumer.senate.gov
Those words aged well, huh?

Never underestimate digital activists and social media’s power.

We’re “on the job” 24/7/365, you lame fuck.
We won’t give up, until you #StepDown.

You don’t discount us, we dismiss you.

Nobody should be surprised that our Secretary of State is a pathetic, weak, cowardly piece of shit.

I got lazy using Amazon. No more. Buying directly from businesses, using Costco on-line, local small businesses and my wonderful public library for books. No more Kindle. It feels good and I will continue.

I use Dexcom to monitor my type one diabetes. I am wondering if there are any others using the same set up as Dexcom and tandem control IQ pump?

@dexcom.bsky.social can you explain just exactly the meaning of this group? More precisely is it for people who use a desk, Dexcom? Would love to know.

I read today that Hitler took down the German democracy in 53 days! Please tell me I am wrong in thinking that that is what is happening to us with Donald Trump.

I hope so!!!
if elon cuts off medicare, boy...i dunno
Snipping one part of this to again note: it seems very few members of Congress realize what their lives are going to be like in the near future when Trump/Musk rip out some of these gears that run the America machine. They will face angry mobs everywhere they go, including their homes.

ALERT TO FEDERAL WORKERS: The Thursday “deadline” set by Musk isn’t a thing. Congress hasn’t appropriated the funds to pay you what he promised should you resign by today — nor has Congress authorized anyone to threaten you with losing anything for staying on.

Imagine saying this about an agency that has helped millions of people around the world avoid malaria, obtain clean water, and gain access to food & health care. Especially when you’re the world’s richest man & your net worth is something like 20 times this agency’s annual budget. What a foul soul.

Just watched NBC News to see if they would cover this. NOPE. Not a word about the Treasury takeover, just the tariffs. We are the ones who have to spread the news about Musk's coup.

Over the last nine days, the house has been out of session while the Democracy is sold for parts.

Would have been nice had the Democrat come back on their own and sued, yelled, stood up, etc. Anything but stayed home
