Trump’s Third Term In a telephone interview last week with NBC’s Kristen Welker, Donald Trump refused to rule out running for a third term as president.

Ahead of the 2016 election, Trump began saying he might not honor the results of the election if he lost—we all know how that turned out in 2020. When he says he's thinking about a third term in office, we need to take him seriously. Please read: joycevance.substack.com/p/trumps-thi...

AOC: What they like to call as radical, I believe is common sense.

I believe that when a person gets sick, they shouldn’t go bankrupt in the wealthiest country in the history of the world. Common sense

I believe that a minimum wage should cover the minimum cost to live. Common sense...

It is one thing to watch a dictator grab power.

It is another to hand it to him.

I’m headed to the Senate floor now.

To cast an emphatic “no.”

They should not be allowed to walk the streets in peace. They are traitors to the Constitution, selling us all out because when the moment to fight came, they talked themselves into surrendering instead. Torment them forever.

The word for what Senate Democrats are doing right now is "betrayal." Not only are they voluntarily surrendering the only leverage they have, the leverage they have spent months promising to use against Trump, they're doing it while lying and pretending they want the opposite.

Here’s a cheat sheet with all the phone numbers for the US Senate. I have a feeling we’ll be calling them a lot in the near future.

CALLS ARE WORKING - it has bought us precious time, but we NEED to keep the pressure up.

Tomorrow is the cloture vote.

KEEP CALLING: (202) 224-3121 ☎️☎️☎️

Tell your Dem Senator to vote NO on Cloture and NO on the Republican spending bill.

Do NOT assume your Senator will be good on this. Trust me.

I think some in the Senate have convinced themselves that the backlash to folding will be limited to “the left” and therefore ignorable.

Those people are deeply and profoundly misreading the moment and the stakes.

Virtually every swing district House Dem walked the plank to vote NO for a reason.

Tell him the time is NOW.

We've had a lot of recessions, but this is the first one that is completely unforced and entirely owed to just one person. What part of Trump promising "lower prices on day one" meant a market crash, economic recession, and surging prices?

Democratic Leaders Stand Real Still In Hopes No One Notices Them WASHINGTON—With the elected officials trying their hardest not to move a muscle, reports confirmed Monday that top Democratic leaders in Congress were standing real still in hopes that the American pe...

You are absolutely wrong on this. DO NOT CAVE. Let them own this.

Conscience of Congress

Removed: Al Green

Walked Out: Jasmine Crockett, Maxwell Frost, Maxine Dexter, Andrea Salinas, LaMonica McIver, Sydney Kamlager-Dove, and several others

Refused to Attend: AOC, Chris Murphy, Ron Wyden, Patty Murray, Gerry Connolly, Don Beyer

History will honor these names 🔝

Swalwell: The stock market is crashing, and prices are rising. This guy has gone to the Super Bowl, the Daytona 500, and a UFC fight. He should go to the fucking supermarket and see what people are spending to feed themselves

Trudeau Fact-Checks Trump’s Bizarre Comment on Canada’s Banks During a press conference on tariffs, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau corrected Donald Trump’s blatant lie about banking in Canada.

“What [President Trump] wants is to see a total collapse of the Canadian economy, because that’ll make it easier to annex us,” Trudeau said, alluding to Trump’s threats to annex Canada as the supposed 51st state.

Walsh is correct.

And to think we could have had a sane, serious government run by an intelligent person who would have acted in the best interests of Americans, and not Vladimir Putin.

📞🥺 Canada, can you come pick me and my friends up?

I cancelled mine and signed up for NPR+ instead 😊

In an extraordinary display of public support, heads of state, heads of government, and foreign ministers from all over Europe and Canada are posting in support of Ukraine in response to the Oval Office meeting with Trump, Zelenskyy, and Vance.

Five Failures in the Oval Office (video) America hurt itself badly today.

Here I react to the shameful encounter between American leaders and media and the Ukrainian president. No doubt there were more, but I saw five failures on our side: of hospitality, decency, democracy, strategy, and independence. Please watch and share.

They ambushed him like a bunch of bullies in a high school locker room. Absolutely disgraceful.

Nothing but respect for Zelenskyy. Class act and true leader. 🇺🇦

We want to send a message to the world: what has happened today is an absolute disgrace. It is completely un-American.

Per @chrisdjackson.bsky.social on another platform:

“It took me 30 seconds to find at least ten postings from Zelensky directly thanking the United States for their support. There are many more.

This is pure BS.”

I feel as if we're capable of acknowledging that a one-day boycott is mostly symbolic without becoming contemptuous and dismissive of people finding a little meaning and comfort in such a symbol. The scorn seems petty.

Warren: "Our best strategy is to make sure everybody knows exactly what the Republicans are trying to do, and that is they want to give literally trillions of dollars in tax cuts to millionaires and billionaires, and they want to pay for it on the backs of seniors who are living in nursing homes."

Colorado's Rep Brittany Pettersen (D) flew cross-country with her one-month-old to vote against the GOP budget tonight. Dems ended up one vote short. Pettersen was part of an unsuccessful bipartisan push to allow new mothers to vote remotely. #copolitics
