Rep Pramilla Jayapal and Ilhan Omar convened a Field Hearing in Minnesota at the State Capitol. 28 Members of Congress from across the country were there - all Democrats, and strikingly majority women and non White. You can watch on CSpsn. www.c-span.org/program/news...

And this is why I love being a member of the Resistance.

Arnoldo Bazan, a 16-year-old U.S. citizen, was put in a chokehold by ICE agents. Agents took his phone, which he tracked to a used electronics vending machine near an ICE detention center. Yes: ICE is stealing and selling people’s things after brutalizing them. There are no words.

I’ve updated my 2026 Senate candidate thread. This reflects the exciting news that Mary Peltola is running in Alaska. I remain a ‘Run Everywhere’ person although I understand the logic of focusing resources in key states - this cycle GA MI MN NH AK ME NC OH, and longer shots IA TX.

This is as of Jan 15 9 Incumbent Democrats (with their age) are expected to seek re election in 2026 CO - Hickenlooper 73 DE - Coons 61 GA - Ossoff 38 MA - Markey 79 NJ - Booker 56 NM - Lujan 53 OR - Merkley 68 RI - Reed 75 VA - Warner 70

💙🔵Hey Democrats🔵💙 If you are deciding whether to support your incumbent Democratic Member of the House, call and ask if they are on board with impeaching Kristie Noem. The Senate won’t remove her, but the impeachment hearings will be impactful. www.house.gov/representati...

How fitting is it that we learn Trump hates being called a #PedophileProtector on TACO Tuesday? And we can abbreviate it as PeePee like the tape I truly believe Putin uses to pull the Puppet Strings.

I have long been a Clinton Democrat. Bill is the first Presidential candidate who I voted for that won. I stand with them.

How bad are the Epstein files that the US government is willing to invade the whole world?

💙🔵Hey Democrats🔵💙 Here is some happy news to start the week. Follow Mary. If you can afford it, send her a little $. Alaska is now in play.

Tillis is spot on. The Senate can't confirm a Trump toady to succeed Powell at the Fed. The rest of the game is now out in the open, and it doesn't end well.

If you need to smile today…

For those of you wishing to send love to Minneapolis Penzeys Spices is running a promotion where you can purchase one of their Hug blankets for 1/2 Price ($12.47) and they will donate one to someone in Minnesota. These blankets are colorful, soft, warm. www.penzeys.com/online-catal...

Read this and breathe,

We've got a chance to flip AL HD-63 to blue this Tuesday... please if you can, donate to these candidates listed below, and make a plan to vote if you live in these districts (AL HD-63, CT HD-139, VA HD-011, VA HD-023).

Because it is not possible to watch everything that happens in Congress, I often prioritize watching the Rules Committee hearing each week. Ranking Member @jimmcgovernma.bsky.social calls out the bs relentlessly.

Countdown to 250 January 2026 We have crossed a threshold to a new line of depravity and lawlessness. I seem to be capturing less and less as the horrific events gain in magnitude.

💙🔵Upcoming Filing deadlines🔵💙 Four states have filing deadlines in January. UT KY AL WV We can never flip a seat where we do not run a candidate. Utah Jan 8 UT 04 has no Democrat announced. 15 State Senate and 75 State House seats need candidates

Democrats looking to expand their circle of ‘Get Out the Vote’ advocates can start by following Angry and those who responded positively in this thread!

Happy Flipping New Year! 2026 brings us the opportunity to fight for the America we want. I’ll be focused on promoting voter registration and recruiting and supporting Democratic candidates up and down the ballot in every state. My hope? Four Impeachments and a funeral. 🥂🍾🎉🎊

My heart is breaking today for Caroline Kennedy Schlossberg. The death of her beautiful daughter Tatiana is more than any person should ever have to bear. Added to the tragedy that has haunted her life, it is nearly inconceivable. Deepest sympatry to her and those who loved her and Tatiana.

The last special election of 2025 happens on December 30th - and it has huge implications especially if you live in West Des Moines. If you live in IA SD-16, please get out and vote for Renee Hardman so that the GOP doesn't get the supermajority in the Iowa State Senate.

We can also get an early start on the State Senate! Taylor Rehmet is running to flip Senate District 9 in a special election. Election Day is January 31st. For info and to help: www.taylorfortx.com

Tomorrow is my 24th birthday — to celebrate, I'm trying to raise $24,000 to support VOT's efforts to beat back TurningPoint USA. TPUSA & Co. outspent us 10:1 in 2024, but just last November, we proved we can win when we have the resources to compete. Can you help me by sharing to spread the word?

🚨 REMINDER: 30% of the U.S. population STILL HAS UNTIL NEW YEAR'S EVE to enroll in #ACA coverage with a January 1st start date! CA, IL, MD, NV, NJ, NM, PA, RI, VA & WA residents should read my Open Enrollment Guide & #GetCovered TODAY! acasignups.net/25/12/25/gro...

The numbers are in. More people watched the bootlegged 60 Minutes CECOT segment than watched Trump’s Kennedy Center Honors on CBS.

This is being done in our names. I have no idea how we can stop it but I hope someone does. Please have the courage to at least watch.

CBS is owned by Paramount Skydance, which is publicly owned and trades under PSKY. I don’t know who owns shares other than David Ellison, but it is probably a lot of mutual funds.

All is not well on the Right. Gift article. www.nytimes.com/2025/12/20/u...

I know that Trump promised to release the Epstein files because his cult believed that the FBI was covering up bad behavior from prominent Democrats. I know that Democrats think that the Epstein files might contain material about Trump tgat is so disgusting the cult turns on him.

I wish Jared Moscowitz woukd run for Senate in a Florida.

Community Alert Memphis. Now we have bounty hunters. 1:28 pm Bounty hunters At 61 Horn Lake, in the Family Dollar and AutoZone parking lot. There are 6 civilian cars. Avoid the area. V901

One of the biggest moments of my career: USCIS canceled my client’s naturalization oath ceremony. We filed a lawsuit, went to trial, and the judge swore him in right there in the courtroom!

Fairfax Dems Issue Call to Caucus for HD11 Democratic "firehouse primary" on Tuesday, 12/16 from 7 am to 7 pm at the Fairfax County Government Center, Fairfax Presbyterian Church, Jim Scott Community Center bluevirginia.us/2025/12/va-s...

Please pause a moment to remember.

Their closing message to Indiana: change your maps to artificially benefit the President's political party or 'roads will not be paved' as punishment. They are openly saying this. Who would want to live in a country that works like that?

Add this to the Noem Impeachment Articles - lying to Congress. Great job @sethmagaziner.bsky.social

Magaziner: How many US military veterans have you deported? Noem: We have not deported military veterans. Magaziner: We are joined on zoom by a gentleman who is an army combat veteran who was shot twice while serving our country. You deported him to Korea.

Countdown to 250 December 2025 The insanity is ramping up and it’s hard for me to recognize when something is extreme because the bar for crazy is now so very high. But I still think it’s important to document what is going on.

36 Seats Republicans won by 13 points or less in 2024. LFG. AK AZ 01, 02, 06, 08 CA 03, 22, 40, 41 CO 03, 04, 08 FL 07, 13, 15 IA 01, 03 MI 04, 07, 10 MO 02 MT 01 NJ 07 NY 01, 17 NE 02 OH 15 PA 01, 07, 08, 10 VA 01, 02 WA 04 WI 01, 03

Tennessee polls close at 7 PM CT. If you’re in line when polls close, stay in line. Your vote will count. LFG!

🚨Rumors are flying around the Richmond/Chesterfield Co., Va. area right now, about the “firehouse caucus” for SD 15 being scheduled for Sunday, December 7th. No official notice has been issued yet; but, apparently the local committees have been notified. Stay tuned.

Incredible energy on @aftynbehn.bsky.social GOTV call. @democrats.org should find a way to run calls like this monthly, then weekly because people need community and inspiration! 💙

Loser Mike Johnson is pissed that we’re gaining ground in forcing a vote on extending ACA tax credits. So let’s get even louder:

I hope enterprising DC reporters ask ‘Why aren’t flags at half staff for Sarah Beckstrom’ at every press briefing this week. Bonus points if they add ‘like they were for Charlie Kirk.’

Just imagine Mike Johnson’s face when we get this done. Tell Congress to force a vote on extending ACA tax credits!

SWFL has seen almost non-stop ICE raids affecting our neighbors. Today, an 18yo American citizen was arrested on trumped up charges when they pulled over the van his father was driving. I’m asking folks to help us bond this young man out and help his family. open.substack.com/pub/saveourd...
