Dear Democrats: This Nov we need Majorities, NOT Messiahs. So the next time you want to fight over which Democrat isn't Democrat enough remember that this is about addition, not subtraction, adding seats, not eliminating any seat that isn't pure enough

White Christian Nationalism is the most powerful force in my former political party. It’s now fully out in the open. White Christian Nationalism is scary & dangerous bcuz it’s utterly un-American and utterly unChristian.

From my understanding at least 2 are trying to block it

Also, don't take my previous comment as reason to sit out

By all means, call Senators & Representatives EVERY TIME there's an important vote

Make sure they know approval of MWM is NOT an option

But even with a better Dem in that seat we still only 48 Dem Senators

Which is why it's so important people get organized NOW & vote this November

Double & Triple-check your registration, make sure you have supporting documents & if you can get a passport, get one NOW

GOP WILL try to cheat

He'll be up for re-election in 2028

2 years

And that's IF he runs again

As for the rest, understand that everyone should ALWAYS call or write their Senators & Reps b4 EVERY major vote

But let's be real

Republicans have the votes to confirm MWM regardless of Dems...which is why we need to VOTE

This thread by @sethabramson.bsky.social explains why we need serious investigations into what TF is going on in the Middle East

Is there anyone left in DOD that can tell us the truth?

What was the origin of the Drone?

I ask because the ones that attacked Cyprus & Turkey originated in Lebanon, NOT IRAN

This is important because Israel has been launching some of its operations from Lebanon & the ONLY person who benefits from Iranian attacks on NATO allies is Netanyahu

It was dumb to say, no doubt

But social media algorithms are all about being reactionary

People react to headlines & soundbites & don't read articles or watch full interviews

The point is we should ALWAYS call/write reps before big votes to make our voices heard...that's how Democracy works

This shouldn't be taken as an excuse to sit back on the sidelines

You should ALWAYS write/call your representatives before important votes to make your voices heard

Democracy is NOT a spectator's sport

Tell them you expect a "no" vote & your future support depends on their actions in this moment

is spreading like wildfire without the context that he was speaking on the Senate as a whole basically saying there's Democratic Senators that like him as a person bit their issue is with his policies

Everyone should call both your Senators & tell them to vote no

But he didn't say he'd vote yes

Nope, when he was asked if support for MWM would be bipartisan (beyond Fetterman) He said Mullin is an honest guy so maybe, but also said that the policies & practices of DHS are incredibly troubling and his support of those policies is troubling and that would be the roadblock for him

The 1st part

This frothing rage toward Talarico over his Christianity is bizarre. Was there a similar level of animus toward Raphael Warnock in Georgia? Or do people just really want Crockett to win and are letting their priors color their response?

In other words, this is not the same man who campaigned for Senate

Voters rallied behind him because he was already the nominee

Now maybe he always was an asshole, but voters from his hometown who had elected him locally before this seem equally as shocked

That's an understatement

But also, he had a major stroke

Anyone who knows someone this has happened to can attest to the fact that it changes their personality. And this is not about the emotional impact, the stroke affected the part of the brain that controls personality & cognitive ability

Hey now

That's not all she did

She also bought a whole new wardrobe of cosplay costumes, got a whole new face, and spent $220,000,000 of our money making commercials that she was hoping would launch her 2028 Presidential run

Meet MarkWayne Mullen, the guy Trump wants running DHS

He tried to throw down in a fist-fight during a Sentare hearing because he's such a tough guy when he knows people won't actually let him fight

Giving Democrats the majority means stopping SCOTUS & judicial nominations, blocking horrible cabinet picks, subpoena power, impeachment power, controlling hearings, filing contempt charges, REAL investigations, and on & on

Donald Trump would love for you to abolish Congress, don't help him

This is an absurd and ridiculous take

If WE, the voters, had given Demcrats a majority we could've stopped most of this, INCLUDING the ICE funding & the big grotesque bill, but we didn't

So instead we curse at people who don't have the votes to stop him & blame the system?

Vote out MAGA in Nov

Choosing to help Donald Trump makes you a facist

And at the very least you're cool letting facists take over....which makes you a facist
