Primaries are very healthy for a political party.

A SSRS/CNN poll showing 61% people think Trump has gone too far using the power of the presidency and 57% think he's gone too far deporting immigrants.

People fucking hate this guy. They fucking hate ICE. They fucking hate how much power he has. He is at 63% overall disapproval to 37% approval. That's lower than their poll after January 6th. And this poll was done before he started intentionally starving people. I wish our media would reflect this.

Whatever you think of the White House as a building or a symbol, the fact is that the image of it being torn apart on a whim two days after 7 million people hit the streets against autocracy is going to make a HUGE amount of people really, really angry, and that's an energy that should be harnessed.

Watching the cable news commentary on the bullet engravings is wild because none of these people seem to realize that the content of the engravings are indicative of extremely online meme brain rot

Earlier this year, Utah Republicans passed a "Campus Carry" law (HB 128), which allows individuals aged 18+ to carry a firearm, either openly or concealed, on college campuses, provided they hold a valid Utah Concealed Weapon Permit (CWP).

Charlie Kirk wasn't killed by political violence.

James Dobson is no longer woke. Thank goodness for all the kind, awake people that vile POS leaves behind.

It might be easier for some in the press to get it right if the Founding Fathers had used "Bribe" instead of "Emolument."

Trump, Musk, Bezos, and the billionaires are all on the same team.

Just look at what happened today. After one call from Trump, Bezos immediately walked back a plan to show Americans how tariffs are increasing prices.

To fight back, Democrats must bring working people together.

This is injecting bleach for the entire global economy. And he's not just floating the idea: he's holding the syringe.

Kudos to Jeffrey Goldberg from the Atlantic for reporting on this signal exchange rather than waiting to write a book about it.

Other people are still at "is it a constitutional crisis yet?" and I'm at "the crisis was several exits ago, the car has crashed, we're now just seeing how many cars end up in the pileup and how high the casualty count is" or "the house is actively burning down, the question is what's left after."

Cool so what happens if GOP attach a national abortion ban to a CR? You'll vote for that too?

EMERGENCY ACTION ๐Ÿšจ
8AM Friday 3/14
9 Prospect Park West, near Grand Army Plaza.

@schumer.senate.gov needs to hear us: FIGHT BACK OR STEP DOWN.

Schumer wants us to believe Senate Dems are powerless while literally providing the votes to ensure the GOP agenda goes forward.

If a shutdown was better for Trump, the House GOP wouldn't have passed this CR and the Senate GOP wouldn't vote for it.

Schumer knows that; he's outright lying to us.

The absolute devastation that @chuckschumer.com is about to inflict on D.C. by supporting the GOPโ€™s continuing resolution is hard to overstate. Massive cuts to schools and law enforcement. Teachers laid off en masse. Basic city services may grind to a halt because we *cannot spend our own money.*

They vote in the morning.

Advice to any CEO: Don't promote corporate policies to line your own pockets that kill the loved ones of other Americans if you expect them to feel sympathy for your own death even if they are appalled by its occurrence.
