@cortezmasto.senate.gov is complicit with Trump's weaponization of law enforcement to harm her constituents.

But thank you, @anniekarni.bsky.social, for asking the tough questions! Why is @schumer.senate.gov still in leadership when he caved on the CR and has no plan for the next funding fight?

Senate Democrats face crossroads in anti-Trump strategy This week will present an early test case for this fall's appropriations showdown.

Called @schumer.senate.gov and @kirstengillibrand.bsky.social in DC today to ask whether Dems have any red lines in negotiations over the funding deadline. Neither of their staffers knew of any.

You can't be negotiating effectively if no one knows what you stand for!

Of course Republicans would vote to enable MAGA corruption, empower techno-fascists and crypto scammers, add utterly unnecessary risks to the financial system, and incentivize the further destruction of our planet.

But @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social? @repdangoldman.bsky.social? What's your excuse?

It's a matter of perspective.

Here in NY, it's called the Mandating End of Lawless Tactics Act.

If you're a NYer, call your NYS lawmakers today and tell them to support @tonysimone.bsky.social's MELT Act to protect us from secret policing.

Of course Malliotakis is too cowardly to face her constituents!

Malliotakis spent months lying to us about this bill, falsely claiming, "Nothing in the budget resolution cuts healthcare."

Now she can't hide from the fact that we were right all along... so instead, she's hiding from us!

Kicking off our overnight(ish) vigil outside Malliotakis’ BK office with @bradlander.bsky.social @justinbrannan.bsky.social @1199seiu.org @indivisible.org in the pouring, thundering rain to demand she vote NO on the devastating budget bill!

We will be here til midnight and tmw 6a-noon!

Before the Senate votes on Trump’s Tax Scam, there will be a β€œvote-a-rama.” This is when senators can propose endless changes that their colleagues then need to vote on.

You probably have some creative ideas for amendments. Submit them now to help keep vote-a-rama going for as long as possible. πŸ‘‡

@kirstengillibrand.bsky.social's Communications Director knows what an apology looks like. "I misspoke when I said you're a terrorist, but..." is not an apology. It is further evidence that Gillibrand is unfit to serve as DSCC chair.

Arecibo is always my #1, but I'm good to #RankTheSlate of locally-run car services!

I've never called an Uber. And I certainly didn't vote for MAGA Maya. They don't know how much homegrown talent we have in District 39. But they're about to learn that their $ is no match for a community like ours!

In December 2024, Maya Kornberg told City & State NY that she "has lived in Brooklyn for more than six years."

But Maya did not register to vote here until August 10, 2022.

But Maya did not register to vote here until August 10, 2022.

If @mayaforcouncil.bsky.social voted at all in 2020, it wasn't in Brooklyn. Which raises the question: Is she lying about moving to Brooklyn "more than six years ago," or did she vote somewhere else despite not being a resident there, or did she really not care enough to vote Trump out of office?

When we called out β€ͺ‬ @mayaforcouncil.bsky.social for running a campaign on MAGA $, she called us "an outside group." We've been organizing in BK for 8.5 yrs. And now it turns out that Maya didn't even register to vote here until 2022! See πŸ‘‡ πŸ‘‡

Sen. Korruption Gillibrand is so desperate for crypto $ that she's reportedly abusing her leadership position to withhold that $ from the Dems it's there for, i.e. the ones defending our economy, democracy, and planet from her GENIUS Act.
If true, @kirstengillibrand.bsky.social cannot be DSCC chair.

🚨 Call @kirstengillibrand.bsky.social and @schumer.senate.gov right now and demand No Cloture on the GENIUS Act (S.394), which is a gift to the technofascists at the expense of our economy, our democracy, and our planet. (202) 224-3121 for the Senate switchboard. Script here:

The technofascists failed to buy cloture on the GENIUS Act on V-E day.

But watch out: the appeasement caucus is surely planning their next opportunity to enrich the corrupt rich at the expense of the planet.

Keep calling @kirstengillibrand.bsky.social & @schumer.senate.gov until this bill is dead.

Nicole Malliotakis didn’t attend the town hall we held for her (since she’s never actually had one)…but her constituents had A LOT to tell her about how cuts to healthcare in NY11 will impact them & their loved ones.

It's always a good day to talk to voters about what we can achieve by electing progressive leaders, esp. outstanding candidates like proven progressive leaders @cmcrystalhudson.bsky.social & @bradlander.bsky.social! E-Day is less than 2 mo away, join us at the next canvass! bit.ly/INBKmobilize

Attacking democracy and higher education would be a counterproductive way of combating antisemitism, if that were even the administration's goal here. @schumer.senate.gov is right: pitting Jewish safety against other communities and undermining our freedoms and democratic norms makes us all unsafe.

Whitmer Shows How Democrats Are Playing With Fire in Cozying Up to Trump
Whitmer did not want to be part of the scene while the president signed executive orders seeking revenge against his perceived political enemies. She slunk to the side and hid her face from the cameras.

Let this image of Gov. Gretchen Whitmer's profile in cowardice be a visual lesson for all Democrats: trying to appease Trump is a career-ending move for so-called leaders and a disaster for American democracy.

In a healthy democracy, both parties would support voting rights. Here in the US, Republicans are trying to silence American voters in order to avoid accountability for their unpopular policies. Thank you, @schumer.senate.gov, for keeping Democrats united in protecting the right to vote.

Thank you @delgadoforny.bsky.social for meeting with our communities here in Brooklyn & sharing your vision of a NYS government that works for the people, not just the donor-class. When you get back to Albany, let everyone know: NYers don't want government by Three Men In a Room. We want democracy!

Huq's claim amounts to: It's not a crisis, it's just fascism.

"Crisis" suggests we still have space to make decisions. Pro-democracy Americans like @indivisible.org are doing all we can to push leaders to make the right decisions.

Huq's position that democracy's over is defeatist and dangerous.

Maya told @anniemcdonough.bsky.social that she has no connection with MAGA billionaire Blavatnik; in fact, she is closely connected with him. Maya's campaign website says "I’m not taking contributions from... real estate developers;" in fact, she is. She lied. And yes: "lying about it is no good."
