Iβm so glad that Trump canceled so many sustainable energy projects funded under the Biden administration, including wind and solar projects that were 75% built, now that heβs starting a war that is going to raise the price of oil and gas significantly.

Too bad Americans only get fired up to vote when we are in crisisβ2020 and now, both under Trump.
Obama would be the exception.
Could we have some national memory about how badly Republicans lead in general, Trump unprecedentedly horrific?
I have always seen being able to vote as a privilege .
I take pride and every time I put my sticker on my chest. πΊπΈ
I will not let Donald Trump steal that experience from me.
We should play this on a loop. Mike Johnson seems to forget all the times Republicans are openly rude and disrespectful.
This was a great moment for Joe Biden. He has more intelligence and experience in his pinky finger than Trump has ever had. Trump still doesnβt know how the hell things work.
Not to put a damper on everyoneβs weekend but the president is saying heβs going to ignore the ruling of the Supreme Court and thatβs a textbook Constitutional crisis. Is there a plan?

Think of all the money brought in by those illegal tariffs as an enormous CAVA bag stuffed with cash.
They will deny it ever existed. And you will never see a penny of it.
He owes Trump for his pardon or whatever happened that got him out of trouble for corruption. Heβs going to vote with Republicans on everything.

We are begging you.
Show outrage that meets this moment.
Call out Republicans for having the power, but are DOING NOTHING.
Stop calling them βcolleaguesβ or βfriends.β
They are enablers in murder, corruption and terror.
This is a βhave you no decency?β moment.

On one of my favorite podcasts, @FastPolitics, they reported that Trump was asked when Americans were going to get their $2000 tariffs check that he promised.
His answer: βWhen did I say that?β
To say the man has lost a few steps is an understatement.
Still waiting for my $5000 DOGE check.
Someone set up a GoFundMe in case he loses his job.

Iβve been thinking about how only 1 of the January 6 rioters who literally beat, tased and traumatized police for THREE HOURS got shot and killed.
Trump Republicans cast Ashli Babbitt as a βpatriot,β Renee Good, who tried to drive away, as a βdomestic terrorist.β
Iβve really come around to thinking that primaries that challenge incumbents or presumed front runners are a good thing for democracy.
Maybe if more candidates had challenged Biden and held a 2024 primary earlier, we wouldβve been much better off.
Let the best candidate win.

Forget fantasies of bipartisanship.
Democrats need to be messaging that Republican majorities in the house & Senate are complicit in ALL of this.
They voted to confirm Hegseth. Kennedy. Noem.
They have abdicated checks and balances.
MLKβs words could not be truer today as we watch 8 Senators voting to give Republicans exactly what they want with a Susan Collins level of denial that they are going to get some sort of bipartisan deal later.

Not to mention these boats are so far from the US soil, they could easily be intercepted by the Coast Guard to investigate. There was no need to murder them, even if they were drug traffickers. And how many drugs can you carry on a fishing boat?

a chainsaw. Trump is using a wrecking ball.
That is not his house. That is OUR house.
Talked every day about what Democrats will do to REBUILD the country.
Ask for our vote.

Strategy/branding idea:
Set up microphones in view of the demolition of the East Wing. Make sure Americans see that image every day.
Politics is influenced by images now over policy.
