The path to passing Medicare for All:

I know Sen Kim is a good guy but I'm tired. They could just shut down the Senate. We are at DEFCON Level 1 here and have been for a long time but these senators keep hardy har har-ing along like people aren't dying.

Demand your members of congress use all their leverage — including by blocking FISA reauthorization — to remove Trump's ludicrously unqualified and dangerous National Intelligence Director.

Ha! I just told my Rep and Senators "NO MORE PEDOS IN GOVERNMENT" and that felt good to just outright say it to them.

“We can allow them to build a data center and pollute the water in your neighborhood so Elon can spread more Nazi shit and Jeff can buy another mega yacht OR we can have health care and education for our kids. The choice is clear.”

🚨 TODAY: A final Senate vote is expected on the MAGA spending bill that would shovel $70 billion more to ICE and Border Patrol to kidnap more of our neighbors and build more concentration camps like Delaney Hall. If you’ve got a GOP senator, they need to hear from you ASAP.

No joke, it would be cheaper to pay every coal miner $5m every year to not mine coal. There are only 40,000 coal miners, while the coal industry produces >$500 billion in external costs every year, including by routinely burning coal just to burn it despite it costing more ("uneconomic dispatch").

HOUSE PASSES RESOLUTION TO END IRAN WAR

215-208 It passed! Cheer erupt in the House chamber.

The dumb-tech revolution is happening. 99% of the CEO class still huffing the AI hype glue off a cliff, but anyone reading the room knows no one wants an AI surveillance fridge and there’s a huge opening right now for offline products that just fucking work (bonus points for chunky physical buttons)

Hey, Ang! Come and condemn your super PAC!!!! This is gross and further proof that Peggy was the right person to be endorsed for Minnesota!!!

"What difference will specific policy items make if there are profound obstacles to simply governing at all?" Democrats need a vision for democracy - not just a list of good policies, but a plan for ensuring that those good policies are passed and implemented!

MAGA Murder Regime. That is the only accurate name for them. Monsters have taken over our government and turned it into a weapon intent on destroying anyone who dares stand up for ourselves or each other.

Thinking about him

I need a Democratic presidential hopeful to introduce a “My Plan To Make John Roberts Cry.”

We do not have voting rights in this country anymore. We just don’t. We did for a while because Congress codified them pursuant to a constitutional amendment enacted by the people in a great repudiation of the original sin of slavery. But the Supreme Court has nullified that law and that amendment.

This isn't happening! G-d dammit I hate how these fuckers just make shit up and the press just sits there and doesn't question it. They are making a pretext for throwing people off of their healthcare!!!

👏reparations👏👏👏👏👏

For the foreseeable future the frame for all American politics is the people vs billionaires. And we will have to drag the Democrats into understanding this

Shortages are coming, just relax

we don't have a masculinity crisis. we have a patriarchy crisis. patriarchy creates and sustains male unhappiness with its dogmatic, toxic, rigid definition of masculinity which says the worst and most undesirable thing a human can be is female which is how we get insults like "Low-T Talarico"

One way to use these threads from Salena is to pick one of these candidates and sign up for door knocking or phone banking. The power is US

THREAD 2: Senate Seats currently held by Republicans (or open from their retirements) that we can flip! ⬇️

THREAD 1: State Senate seats we must hold to keep our DFL majority ⬇️

Peggy flanagan “We are up against a gang of supervillains. Republicans, tech bros, billionaires, AIPAC, and more. But when it’s the Many vs the Money, I bet on us.”

Peggy Flanagan “heres what I stand for Raising the minimum wage, addressing drug costs, universal health care, building truly affordable healthcare, addressing corruption, and ripping ICE apart and fixing our broken immigration system.”

Peggy Flanagan “Donald Trump and his MAGA republicans don’t give a damn about you. But we got here because too many democrats have been weak.” Standing ovation. “We can’t just be the lesser of two evils. We will never win as the pale shadow of our opponents.”

Republicans gonna Republican. (But I'm still surprised.)

I got a fundraising text from James Carville for Alex Vindman. I responded: "Fuck off, Alex Vindman doesn't support trans kids!" And received a response that I've been unsubscribed. So, you don't have to nicely type back "Stop" you can tell them to "Fuck off" - just file that away for future use!

I told my cousin in CA about Steyer's support for trans kids and he's taking another look at him. He and his wife are trying to figure out who to vote for and the CA ballot is not easy! He didn't care for Becerra's sounding like a politician on the issue.

Minnesota is coming for you

The most effective political message for any congressional candidate is "Give us enough votes to impeach and remove the asshole who's doing this to you"

Anyway, you can tell guys like Erick Erickson are scared by this race because their rhetoric is almost entirely defensive, they don't spend time talking about how great Paxton's record is (even though the record and the (R)) is why they're voting for him.

"A vote for me is a vote to close the camps and to indict everyone involved in the abduction and abuse of our neighbors." "A vote for me is a vote for the survivors of Epstein's crimes to see justice." "A vote for me is a vote to force billionaires to pay what they owe so we can have what we need."

CLOSE DELANEY HALL. CLOSE THEM ALL.

The regime can’t be trusted to reach a ceasefire and end Trump’s illegal war on Iran. Congress must act. The House is on the verge of finally passing a War Powers Resolution aimed at stopping Trump’s war of choice. Make sure your representative hears from you: act.indivisible.org/sign/no-iran...

PSA MN: The air quality alert today is for ground ozone, and masks like N95s don’t protect effectively against that. The safest thing to do if you’re sensitive is stay indoors with the windows closed if you can

Everything has to change. Everything. Do not settle for politicians who want to go back to "normal." "Normal" was the garbage state of existence that allowed all of this evil to take root and thrive. Everything has to change.

GREG IP: “.. Adjusted for inflation, hourly wages are up 3% since the end of 2019 while profits are up 50%. That, in a nutshell, explains the chasm between an ebullient stock market and anxious public.” @wsj.com www.wsj.com/finance/stoc...

In 2009 and 2021 Democrats chose reconciliation. It was a miserable failure. The only path forward is vengeance and retribution.

Close Delaney Hall. Close them all.

Anything short of affirming that all people have rights & merit respect and making clear who the real villains are doesn't work. Ignoring the attacks doesn't make the issue go away; just allows oppo to have sole airtime on it. Piling onto them just gives them more merit.

This. And also why every round of funding fights, Dems should have been saying: No Payouts for Pedophiles (along with No Funding for Fascism, No Dollars for Dictators) Plus calling every Republican not pushing for Epstein files - Senator Pedophile. Say fewer things, say them more often.

ken paxton let one child abuser go free, imagine what he’ll do in washington with jeffrey epstein’s best friend — cue photos of epstein and trump with photos of paxton flashed in as well

yeah you gotta willie horton ken paxton. have the party committees and super pacs run ads explicitly accusing paxton of covering up for a child abuser. “you love your children and would do anything to protect them. so why would you vote for a man who lets child abusers run free”

EXCLUSIVE: I just revealed that Rep. @tomsuozzi.bsky.social lives at C Street. That’s the DC townhouse run by The Family, the secretive Christian group that runs the National Prayer Breakfast. Suozzi pays $800/month. He's kept it secret for years. There’s more…

you know what's free? keeping that nasty shit in the ground

New favorite response just dropped on the everything app

NJ has a Dem governor, does it not? Why isn't she raising hell about this?
