Melissa Hortman —say her name!— was assassinated for standing up for women and children. Maybe the reason mainstream Americans don’t know this is because mainstream dems won’t say it!

I will.

Melissa is our Harvey Milk.

Say her name!!
The culture of violence that has been created by political extremists in this country must end.

Judge: Makes me think: can president declare vacancy that doesn't exist? If president finds a vacancy, there is a vacancy! If the president finds a rebellion, there is a rebellion! And I try to distinguish in my mind, how is this any different from what a monarchist does?

I’m up over 500 followers. I started the week with 70. If you find my posts at all interesting, please recommend me to others. I’m trying to rebuild the community I had on X.
American politics has not realigned. Bear w/ me as a I drop a thread to explain why Trump's win didn't represent any significant shift in American electoral politics. There is a straightforward way to demonstrate this and I run this analysis every four years. /1

Be fucking serious with the American people. Tell them that the Speaker of the House wants to hide the fact that Trump’s nominee for Attorney General engaged in sexual misconduct. Tell them that Republicans want to force another sexual predator on the country. Fight for a better country. My God.
As Mike Johnson works to bury the Gaetz report Hakeem Jeffries is talking about - checks notes - bipartisanship.

On a totally unrelated note, the Democrats on House Ethics are:

Ranking Member Susan Wild (PA) - (202) 225-6411
Mark DeSaulnier (CA) - (202) 225-2095
Veronica Escobar (TX) - (202) 225-4831
Glenn Ivey (MD) - (202) 225-8699
Deborah Ross (NC) - (202) 225-3032
The House ethics committee doesn't need to "leak" the Gaetz report. Nothing is stopping any member of that committee from invoking parliamentary privilege to read the full report into the Congressional Record.

I don't know who needs to hear this, but section 3 of the 14th Amendment is pure ambiguity. There is zero ambiguity in the 22nd Amendment. So please stop using the Supreme Court's decision on the insurrection clause to argue that the Supreme Court will gut the 22nd Amendment. It. Won't. Happen.
