An incredible, and incredibly timely, read as I sit at the hospital with my newborn and as measles flares in SC, UT, AZ and beyond.

A letter to my congressman 1/2 Dear Rob Wittman, I have the misfortune of being your constituent and knowing how little you actually represent our interests. Nearly every hand in this crowded ballroom went up when I asked about how many people weren’t listened to by you.

You don’t hear us, won’t listen to us, but in November, when you’re voted out of your seat, you won’t be able to ignore us. Best wishes in your job search, Ericka Kopp • PS, I wish you could’ve seen and heard this room erupt in applause when I talked about impeaching Trump! @citizensimpeachment.com

Sign petitions for candidates running against Wittman, TOMORROW! 💙 10am-12pm @ HTDems HQ, 113K Palace Ln, Williamsburg 💙 12pm-2pm @ Elite Coffee & Lounge, 7500 Richmond Rd Suite B, Norge 💙 12pm-2pm @ Persnickety Crane Cafe's NEW LOCATION, 4740 George Wash. Mem. Hwy, Grafton Get it done!

Racial justice and journalism are under attack. It’s not the first time. On the occasion of Abraham Lincoln’s birthday, we honor the amazing Ida B. Wells, the intrepid journalist who exposed the violence of life under Jim Crow. We must remember the past to move on! wams.nyhistory.org/modernizing-...

Q: Have you fired or disciplined the staffer who posted the video from your account that included the Obamas? TRUMP: No I haven't. That was a video on voter fraud.

Wittman voted to let Trump's tariff insanity continue. He claims he's working for affordability for people in #VA01 but the evidence keeps piling up: he's just letting Trump do whatever he wants. Wittman isn't doing the job of oversight. Time to resign or be fired.

What happens when a politician gets 98.5% of their funding from wealthy donors, corporations, and political action committees? They vote against our interests, refuse to hold town halls, and ignore our needs. Rob Wittman's campaign funding data shows us a lot.

Want to do something special for Rob on Valentine's Day? Post your Wittman Valentine poem in our comments today, and we'll post one every hour, on the hour, on Saturday from 8am. 💙 @wjccindivisible.bsky.social @804thepeople.bsky.social @henricodems.bsky.social @glodemsva.bsky.social

oh so just dumb luck these idiots didn’t shoot down a passenger aircraft

Sleazy Glitz Delirium It's tempting to go down the rabbit hole of scandal and stay mired there, but we know enough about the organized crime ring of deviant freaks to know our main focus should be getting them out of power

“Russia uses everything as a weapon” 👀 (bookmarking this … need to compare notes with some things my Republican rep in Congress admitted about Russia last year) #EpsteinFiles

Throwback to Pam Bondi’s campaign ad for Florida AG: “I’ll fight to put human trafficking monsters where they belong. Behind bars.” The ad aged. The internet remembers.

Jan. 6 rioter pardoned by Trump convicted of child molestation www.nbcnews.com/news/crime-c...

"Schumer and some of his colleagues remain strikingly unwilling to go on offense." The people are leading, and the leaders are not following.

AOC: We all saw the performance Bondi had. She was screaming and crashing, and I think it’s because she knows she is implicated in a massive cover-up to protect a ring of pedophiles through:

I can think of no greater honor than for Donald Trump to be impeached and removed.

To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public. -Theodore Roosevelt

Rep. Khanna: There were 6 wealthy, powerful men that the DOJ hid for no apparent reason. If we found 6 men that they were hiding in 2 hours, imagine how many men they are covering up for in those 3 million files.

NEW: Regarding the Trump prosecution: COONEY: It was unfortunate and devastating that we ran out of time. WALLACE: Did you run out of time because of Merrick Garland? COONEY: We ran out of time because of the court system and the 2024 election.

NEW: A page from Bondi's burn book. This is a list of the searches by Rep Jayapal of the unredacted Epstein files. That means the DOJ grabbed her search terms from the computers they set up for members of congress to view the Epstein files to use as ammunition. The photo is from Reuters.

Embarrassing defeat for Trump and Mike Johnson.

Likely-historic photo by NBC News of all the Epstein victims asked to raise their hands if they've not yet been asked to meet with the DOJ as Bondi testifies in foreground

Here on Bluesky, AltNPS just reposted @karlbode.com's post. Great! No problem there. But on Facebook, where AltNPS has many times more followers, they just reworded his post and didn't give any credit.

Ted Lieu: “Were there any underage girls at that party or any party that Trump attended with Epstein” Pam Bondi: “There is no evidence that Trump has committed a crime” Ted Lieu: “I believe you just lied under oath”

Pam Bondi had a choice today. She could hold pedophiles accountable or she could protect pedophiles. She chose to protect pedophiles. She chose to protect people who raped children.

And above all, keep him away from the trophy; he’ll steal it for his collection.

86% of ICE arrests had no violent criminal record. That’s why Democrats are holding the line and blocking every penny of new funding. No warrants, no money. Full details on the standoff: 👉 www.dworkinsubstack.com/p/ramirez-to...

Pam is to Trump as Ghislaine is to Jeff.

Dept of DHS needs a top down thorough investigation

THIS IS 👇 THE WAY.......

So the LAPD Police Chief Jim McDonnell said he wasn't going to enforce the law in California that requires #ICE to unmask. Here's some of the response. What do you think about what's being said by Angelinos like Catie Laffoon ⚠️ Warning ⚠️ Strong language

"I did not have economic relations with that man" was not true

Good 👇

Families are the bedrock of #VA01 so of course Wittman claims to be their #1 advocate. His proposals and votes on adoption, healthcare, the economy, and more tell another story. Our latest Myth of the Week shows that Wittman’s first concern is not families but himself and his party’s power grab.

Curlers rock!

While the billionaires kowtow and look the other way, actual patriots recognize their responsibility to speak out and assert right from wrong.

Abolish ICE. Impeach Trump and Noem, which is the beginning of accountability.

⚡️UPDATE: Tennessee Republicans just BLOCKED Rep McKenzie’s bill to require @GovBillLee to track how many voucher kids were already in private schools 🤔 (hint: ALMOST ALL) Reeves, Bulso, White; haston & Slater not fans of transparency, it seems?🤷🏼

The FBI's Affidavit used to obtain the warrant for Fulton County ballots "instead of relying on the official transcript ... repeated an erroneous claim made by MAGA conspiracists." From this thread by Tom Joscelyn, an analyst who has followed these matters closely⤵️

I genuinely cannot believe the Senate moved this out of committee, why aren’t the Democrats pushing back on this?? Survivors deserve to hold their abusers accountable in full view if they choose! Forcing them into mandatory arbitration is cruel! @wadems.org @housedemocrats.wa.gov

Disturbing news. SSB 6239 just cleared Senate Ways & Means and is now in Senate Rules, one step closer to a full vote. If this becomes law, Tatiani Elliot and survivors like her could be forced into mandatory arbitration before reaching a courtroom. @wadems.org @housedemocrats.wa.gov

As a separate matter, the scope of this coverup—which we know from major-media reporting was orchestrated by Trump (who oversaw the DOJ and FBI handling of the Files)—is beyond anything U.S. politics has ever seen, and should lead to Trump's immediate removal from the presidency.
