This is so good. If the Speaker refuses to show up for work, then you can go where he will show up.

Here for it, and donating to encourage more . 🙌

Thank you for sharing this method!

Whether “their” values changed or not, the money goes to people who unquestionably do not share our values or interests.

This would be the least surprising development.

You do need the judicial warrant in Illinois. If that’s an impediment to your efforts, then you’re not going after the “worst of the worst.”

People can also text BUYOUT to 50409 in the U.S. if they want to message the same script (minus the “I’m calling…”).

With phone call aversion, it’s good to have options.

No need to separately lookup Congressional contact information, either, because @resist.bot does that part.

That sounds about right.

I also thought I remembered seeing the parties themselves at one point, so thank you for confirming.

It guarantees the preservation of nothing the Senator purported to save. Democrats offer limp answers to even the most threatening propositions.

It’s giving ✨complicity✨

The fact that 37/45 Democrats voted no means 1 out of every 5 voted yes—less “opposition” more “playing hard to get” party.

It’s really, really hard for me to take this as a good faith argument.

How are you going to save the government by co-signing the law to dismantle it? Stop obeying in advance and stand up for the funding that matters. The miscalculation and malpractice are indistinguishable from collusion.

Exactly, if we lower Congressional pay, counterintuitively, only independently wealthy Congress people can afford to hold office—forget running. This is because of the costs associated with having places to stay at home and in DC. The rich can absorb excess costs, like an unpaid internship.

I used to be an opponent, but when I found out Alphabet Inc hates the act of genericide, I became a bigger fan of the usage. I often google things on Ecosia.

If “Politics is for Power” taught me anything, it’s that we can learn more from a politics of doing than a politics of consuming. Lowering barriers to and increasing opportunities for participation are core to civic education. It is practical and teaches political topologies by their navigation.

I understand that judicial interference in a dismissal, especially forcing prosecution against the interest of a prosecutor is exceedingly rare, but these are also exceedingly rare times with singular opportunities to stop the backsliding of the rule of law and the authority of courts.

Someone smarter than I am tell me how to effectively act on this, because this is the most frightening development yet. Laws are not self-enforcing, and we are watching the backsliding of long-held legal norms. Regardless of current appetite, could Congress constrain any of what's happening?

Forget the severity of Mayor Adams' actions. This case is about whether the law applies to those with political power sufficiently aligned with the President.

If Adams responds to a constituency of one President under threat of prosecution, then actual constituents have no mayor.
