Also if you feel strongly about Eric Adams, you should call your city councilmember to express that and ask for their position.
You’d be surprised. Hochul’s stance is highly disappointing but it doesn’t come from nowhere. Press all your electeds. City elections are in 5 months. Ask candidates too.

What should Democrats be doing? They should be legislatively opposing everything Republicans do, grinding down their operation so it can barely operate. They should be on constant attack, berating and deriding their actions - on social media, in the press, and on air.

Jeffries is Pelosi without the legislative track record. So it’s the same level of communications failure without the upside.

"While Trump retains the ceremonial position of Head of State, signing executive orders with flourish and basking in symbolic pageantry, Musk has effectively become Head of Government, wielding unprecedented control over federal agencies."
The False Prophet of Government Efficiency
Elon Musk has been anointed as the architect of federal government reform, a position that would be laughable if it weren't so dangerous.

It's annoying how clearly this is going to play out.
They gut the FAA.
Therefore, the FAA can't do its job well because it was gutted.
Therefore, they say "The FAA sucks, we have to privatize it." which is what Project 2025 wants to do. They're manufacturing the crises for their end goal.

If there is a plane crash every day, Trump and Musk have zero concern. They are sociopaths. They don’t care who suffers or dies as long they increase their power and wealth.

I think the reason people are frustrated with Democratic leaders is that they expect these elected representatives to act like a real disaster is happening, which it is. Four-day weekends and bratwurst junkets in Munich kind of undercut that
