TALKING POINTS FOR SENATE DEMOCRATS Recognize the Crisis Trump and Musk are orchestrating a hostile takeover of the federal government. Vought is not just a nominee—he is a direct threat to democracy. Use Every Procedural Tool to Block This No is not enough. Yes, we expect every Senate Democrat to vote NO on Russell Vought’s confirmation, but no is not enough. We need Democrats to grind Senate business to a halt and force Republicans to feel the political cost of backing Trump’s extremist agenda. Deny a quorum. Walk out if necessary to stop Senate business. Block unanimous consent. Force full roll-call votes on everything. Max out debate time. Speak for the full 30 hours of debate. Gum up the works. Object to every procedural motion, force procedural votes, demand roll calls, and delay every possible action. This is not business as usual. We need Democrats to fight with everything they have. Blanket opposition. Oppose vote NO on every Trump nominee while the coup continues. Expose Republican Complicity Force Republicans to defend their vote. Make them answer to the American people. Call out the risks to Social Security, Medicare, and government programs that millions of people depend on.
TALKING POINTS FOR SENATE REPUBLICANS You Are Enabling an Unconstitutional Authoritarian Takeover Supporting Vought = supporting Trump’s plan to dismantle the federal government. You are allowing a billionaire to dictate public policy. Your Complicity Will Cost You Blocking federal funding is deeply unpopular. If you confirm Vought, you will be held accountable, and your constituents are paying attention. A No Vote is the Only Way to Avoid Political Fallout There is no way to spin this. A vote for Vought means selling out your constituents. Vote NO on Vought.

Photos of people carrying banners and signs in stand outs and events, many of them uplifting messages of love and affirmation for our trans and non binary siblings. A swipe of blue, pink and white stripes across the middle of the graphic. Text reads "They will know us by our LOVE"
"Today, tomorrow & always the fluidity of our expression & experiences will live on. Trans & non-binary siblings are made in the image of God – period."

I love my local library
I have almost made it through this day. Once again Felon 47 has taken control of media coverage and removed all the air from the room.
I tell myself to focus on what I can influence, what I can control in my life.
I pray but my thoughts are not always good.
First post, let’s try
