CASA and crew absolutely showing us how the #BraveOfUS lead the way to a better country.

Schumer is responsible for this. He cannot continue as leader. #DemsCave

We deserve a Democratic Party that is willing to fight as hard as we are. We need new leadership in this moment and to get there, we need a chorus of support for change. Tell your Democratic senators to call on Senator Schumer to step aside as Minority Leader. It’s time for drastic action.

Assume all the yes and no votes from Dem senators are strategic and not sincere votes. The party caucus made a decision. No way to know how many were in favor. Then the caucus decided who would vote yes and no based on what would protect each of them politically the most. That’s how this works.

Went to repost this and then depressingly saw it was from 8 months ago. This is still true, and I am now convinced it will remain true until there are successful primary challenges nationwide to the "roll over and play dead" Dems.

In response to this claim that the "strategy didn't work." The people were on our side. We were building momentum to help save our democracy. We could have won - the premium increase notices were just starting. And giving in now will embolden him. Things will likely get worse.

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person. The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person. People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives. And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

i think this is key. taking the deal would amount to taking the blame. it would turn a clear political victory into an unambiguous defeat.

This deal to reopen the government is fucking disgraceful. Tens of millions will lose their healthcare. Trump will be emboldened. This is exactly what’s wrong with Democratic Party leadership and why we need more people in Congress who will actually hold the line.

BREAKING: The Supreme Court denied an attempt to challenge Obergefell v. Hodges, the case affirming marriage equality nationwide. Our freedom to marry remains the law of the land.

Such a dishonest post — you vote a performative no while your safe colleagues vote yes. Sorry, you caved right along with them. #DemsCave

Tonight was a very bad night.

No one should go hungry because of political games—but that’s exactly what Trump is doing.

This is what democracy looks like. #NoKings

Love this sign.

The Department of Justice has zero basis to investigate the New York State Attorney General. Hands off Tish James.

NYC Comptroller Brad Lander to President Trump after news of AG Letitia James' federal indictment: "You keep your grubby, corrupt, criminal, abusive, weak, cowardly hands off New York State Attorney General Tish James"

Sounds hopeful

Republicans control every branch in Washington. Now, Trump is openly giddy about using the shutdown to slash and burn federal resources that working Americans count on. His shutdown, and firings, will hurt people in every part of this country.

Indigenous, Asian and Hispanic women were also part of their country’s struggle for equality. Here are some of the lesser-known key figures of the women’s suffrage movement: https://bit.ly/4geCeMF

Today marks the anniversary of the certification of the 19th Amendment granting some women the right to vote. Today also marks a time in our history when women have fewer rights than we have had in decades. Agitate. Act. Join a local League! www.lwv.org/join @lwvus.bsky.social @lwvva.bsky.social

It’s been 105 years since the certification of the 19th Amendment, which granted women the right to vote. Today, we must recommit to protecting the right to vote and pushing back against efforts to disenfranchise Americans by passing the John R. Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act.

105 years ago, the 19th amendment was adopted. Let’s make sure we get to 106 and beyond. ✊

The 19th Amendment was ratified on this day in 1920, barring voting discrimination based on sex. But for women of color, the right to vote wasn’t fully realized until the Voting Rights Act of 1965. 105 years later, we're still fighting for equal ballot access for all.

Cuomo helped form the IDC, a group of rogue Democratic state senators who sided with Republicans year after year to keep loopholes in NY’s rent stabilization laws. The result: tens of thousands of rent stabilized units were eliminated. www.politico.com/states/new-y...

Democracy Defenders Fund wants to know who at DOJ determined that Ghislaine Maxwell, a convicted sex offender, could be transferred to a minimum-security prison camp.   The group has filed a FOIA request for records about the transfer — including from Pam Bondi and Todd Blanche. tinyurl.com/4sj4uzyn

True: @zohranmamdani lives in 1 unit of rent-stabilized housing. Also true: Andrew Cuomo oversaw the loss of 96,064 units of rent-stabilized housing. And killed NYC’s program helping people move out of shelter. Leaders must show moral clarity. Andrew, time to move out. 🧵 x.com/andrewcuomo/...

On this 60th anniversary of the signing of the Voting Rights Act, we need to wake up to the reality that it is being dismantled by Trump’s regime and his Supreme Court. Time to fight back. #VotingRightsAct #Indivisible #NoKings #JohnLewisVotingRightsAct slate.com/news-and-pol...

Sen. WARNOCK: This isn’t about the people in power, this is about the power in the people. We need to pass voting rights legislation NOW.

Today marks the 60th anniversary of the passage of the Voting Rights Act. The beginning of true democracy in America. A offering to this country paid for by the work, dedication and lives of ordinary Black people. We’ve always had to fight. Are you prepared to fight to protect our rights?

60 years ago, the Voting Rights Act (VRA) promised to protect every American’s voice at the ballot box. Today, that promise is fading. As it marks its 60th birthday, we may be witnessing its last.

Incredible -- Trump moves to make the government cook the jobs numbers

Lt. Gov Delgado is 🎯spot on🎯. NYS leaders can support the people they represent (and show the rest of the nation how it's done!) We can reduce the impact of the Federal Budget Scam RIGHT NOW during a special session where lawmakers #TaxTheRich, and pass #NY4All & #DignityNotDetention Acts.

The Democratic establishment confuses triangulation with leadership and treats stability as a virtue in and of itself. There’s a chasm between what we say and what we deliver. We continue asking voters to show up while we refuse to show up for them. www.nytimes.com/2025/07/30/o...

I am calling on the Governor to convene a special session. The GOP budget attacks New Yorkers—cutting health care, fueling immigration raids, and rewarding billionaires. We must act now to protect our communities and lead. We can't wait until January.

NEW: We interviewed nine Venezuelan men who were sent to CECOT by the Trump administration. Some said their feelings about what happened were still raw. All of the men said they were abused physically and mentally during their imprisonment.

“I would put the Epstein files as one of the most recent, but biggest breakthrough moments we’ve had with a population that largely doesn’t pay attention to politics — and these are people who we desperately need involved.” - @ezralevin.bsky.social with @jenpsaki.msnbc.com

ICE is now the largest law enforcement agency in the history of our country. Democratic governors, mayors, and lawmakers have the power to stop secret police tactics like abductions by masked ICE agents: www.bluestatedefiance.org/no-secret-po...
