Caucuses are next Tuesday Feb 3 in Minneapolis. If you’re feeling helpless and don’t know what to do right now, consider participating in your local government.

Because if you feel the Democratic Party does not represent you or your interests you’re not wrong…

We had all the momentum

•The American people were blaming Republicans

•A landslide Democratic victory

•Courts ordering Trump to fund SNAP benefits

Yet you couldn't convince your caucus to fight for us

It's the final straw that breaks the back of your tenure as leader, Senator

Time to step down
Democrats have been fighting for months to address America's healthcare crisis

For the millions who will lose coverage
For people with cancer who won't get the care they need
For working families who can't afford to pay $25K more a year for healthcare

We will keep fighting

It’s incredible that after last Tuesday, democrats takeaway was that we should give in to Trump more.

Through Chuck Schumer’s poor leadership, now no matter what democrats do, it will look like they are responsible for the Republicans’ actions.

AMERICA: I was hoping we’d do something now-ish. Like right now
SCHUMER: We have rules, procedures. We’re the good guys. We can’t just do stuff
AMERICA: Just so you know, the whole time you’re doing this, the bad guys are continuing to torture everyone who ends up in the bad place--which is everyone

TRUMP: How about this? Everyone who dies goes to the bad place and I get to torture all of you.
SCHUMER: Sounds good to us!
AMERICAN PUBLIC: No dummies, that’s already how it works except we’re also tortured
TRUMP: Look, I put forward a proposal. You’re not even going to negotiate?
SCHUMER:

F🙊ck all the way off with this

Democrats have been a colossal disappointment. How much louder can we scream?
Democrats should back away from shutdown, Schumer says
The minority leader's remarks are a clear indication that the Senate will vote to advance a GOP stopgap.

Ok, since we are here, here is what I know about the 2/5 rallies:

No major org has endorsed them.

No flyers I or others have seen identify any partners or organizers.

Senior organizers at mobilizing orgs you all know have no idea who is behind the 2/5 events.

Exercise extreme caution.
