It’s time to get ruthless🔥

If California holds a special election on redistricting, I’m voting “yes” for new maps. And I promise you I’m bringing friends and family with me to vote.

The Supreme Court already made it clear it’s fine with gerrymandering. So screw it. LFG.

The market is tanking, Trump just launched a trade war, we told Cyber Command to stand down against Russia, Trump is rolling out a massive crypto scam, and drug dealers have started selling eggs because the profit margin is better. You aren’t distracting us with culture war BS.

I stand with Ukraine. Every decent person should. It’s not just a strategic interest. It’s a moral imperative.

Democrats aren’t powerless against Trump’s blitzkrieg power-grab.

Senate rules are designed to protect the rights of the minority and Democrats have tools at their disposal to grind Senate business to a halt if Republicans try to ram through Trump’s extremist agenda: indivisible.org/resource/how...
