They've said they're not showing it and there was a protest today, seems to have been organized on Indivisible. I don't see one listed for tomorrow at the moment, but I assume anyone can start a thing and list it...

Maybe it has something to do with the perpetual construction.

I love flying Alaska (the biggest airline here) but their new checkin system is worse than ever.

Last time we flew the pre-check online was longer than the regular line. Probably moving faster, but still.

Someone sounds like he just discovered that the GOP is filled with self-serving liars who lied to him. Amazing. It’s like he doesn’t understand politics and government at all.

Every Senator should stand up for their state.

But fighting for your constituents does NOT mean getting a special carve out for YOUR state while actively HARMING the REST of the country.

We are the UNITED States of America.

SENATORS, VOTE NO!

The American people were lied to about Vietnam, with tragic consequences.

The American people were lied to about Iraq, with tragic consequences.

The American people are being lied to again today. We cannot allow history to repeat itself.

SHUTTING DOWN RURAL HOSPITALSβ€”that's the Republican agenda.

If their Big, Ugly, Betrayal of a bill passes, rural hospitals across America will be forced to shutter. This will hit Central & Eastern Washington the hardest.

We can kill this bill, but NOW is the time to speak up.

Most people aren't tracking this, but the Big Ugly bill would effectively ban marketplace insurers from covering abortion care in ALL 50 states.

We can't let this stand. Please help spread the word.

Republicans are jamming this bill throughβ€”we have to speak up NOW.

Even though Trump is a clown and buffoon, he is still President of the United States and commander in chief of the largest military on the planet, which includes a vast nuclear arsenal.

For him to say this is utterly unconscionable. If he plans to act on it, well.

This is a turning point.
This is the line we draw.
This is the moment history will remember β€” when millions stood together to say NO to Trump, Vance, Vought, Theil, and all the corrupt cronies and cult.
