Still waiting for free Palestine protesters to go after Trump like they went after Biden & Harris.

WHERE YOU AT NOW?

Trump tapped Mike Huckabee for Ambassador to Israel: “There’s really no such thing as a Palestinian.”

Trump himself isn’t ruling out Israel’s annexation of the West Bank.

🚨 BREAKING: Elon Musk just became the first person to reach a net worth of $400 BILLION. But his greed won’t stop here. Donald Trump wants to give him even more taxpayer subsidies and let him remove regulations that affect his companies. Like and repost if we should fully reject oligarchy like this!

So basically the guy Mace accuses of a violent assault did what Trump did to Macron during his handshake, but to a lesser degree.

BREAKING: FBI Director Chris Wray plans to step down by the end of Biden’s term, despite having 3 years left in his 10 year term.

This is a five alarm fire moment.

It is all the more important that people contact their Senators immediately to STOP KASH PATEL.

President-elect Donald Trump previously announced he will nominate Kash Patel for the role, although Wray still had three years remaining on his 10-year term.

The loudest voice in the room isn’t always the most truthful one. Lake’s penchant for doubling down on election denialism, even after courts and audits have debunked her claims, is a testament to her disregard for democracy. She’s not a fighter for the people—she’s a performer for the cameras. 6/x

Especially for those of us that didn't fuck around, but we still have to find out.

It is hard to understate how silent Democrats went after Biden won. The right filled the vacuum with bullshit and aside from an obscure message or two from the White House, the GOP dominated. It didn’t have to be but Democrats don’t believe in comms. That’s a big reason we are here.

The greatest failure of the modern Democratic Party is the apparent belief that basic elements of politics -- selling your policies to voters and reminding them what you did for them -- is somehow tacky and beneath them.

What we’re doing is righteous work. And we need to know what side our lawmakers are on. We have to be on the phone and on the office doors to make this happen. You are the picture of what this injustice is. - @rweingarten.bsky.social
