BREAKING: Sen. Ron Wyden sounds the alarm that Trump approves of the House budget resolution -- the only way they can meet their $880 billion in cuts is by cutting hundreds of billions from Medicaid, a disaster for millions.

Make sure everyone sees this.

Why are you not doing everything in your power to prevent these illegal activities inside the borders of our state? Just posting about it accomplishes nothing.

Fair enough, but it depends on why they regret their vote. If they are mad about eggs but still support the fascist racist homophobic misogynistic agenda in its other respects, then I'm not gonna be inviting them over for tea and biscuits.

Fox Shades Trump With Seemingly Never-ending List Of Goods Impacted By Trump's Tariffs Et tu, Fox? ๐Ÿ˜‚

Senator Andy Kim just went to the USAID building, talked to the security guard there to confirm employees are being barred entry, and then did a press gaggle right there in front to call it out.

This is doing something. This is making an effort on messaging. Other Democratic lawmakers: take notes.

Every country that Trump slaps a tariff on should retaliate by slapping a 1000% tariff on all Tesla and Starlink products, if only to show Elon that there is a downside to using our public government as his private playpen.

Personally, I think that Congressional Dems and the DNC should leave the complacent "I told you so"s to us ordinary citizens, and get up off their asses and start, you know, actually resisting the Maggot Party.

And no, simply trying to raise more money doesn't count as "resisting".

Don't do this. Just... don't. No one should have to explain to you why "without consideration for party" is just a really super bad approach to governing this state right now.

I didn't vote for you so that you could give a platform or a voice to the party that is destroying this country.

Somebody else is reading it, writing the Executive Orders, putting them in front of Trump, and pointing to where he signs. Much the same, I would argue, as what happened in his first term. He doesn't read. I would argue that he CAN'T read.

Democratic lawmakers need to understand something:

Imagine your house is on fire. Fire truck shows up. Firefighters get out. They look at the fire, then at you, and say: "Such a fire is a grave threat. This house will not sustain."

And just stand there.

This is how many of you are coming across.

@corybooker.com hello I used to run the Wendyโ€™s Twitter account and I am begging you to let me help you with the dems social media strategy, I will literally do it for free at this point

I am begging Democratic lawmakers to stop solely pointing out the obvious problems and start publicly talking about how to address them.

We know our democracy is unstable and unhealthy. What are you gonna do about it?

Cease the platitudes and broad statements. Get specific and talk about actions.
