Why the fuck is a single Senate Democrat playing “everything is normal” by voting to confirm the Cabinet picks of a fucking dictator?

Do. Not. Comply.
You have ALL spent the last how many years calling him Hitler and now you’re like, ‘I’m a yes on Goebbels and here’s why…”

Fuck that.
Stop it. Now.

AOC: "I want folks at home to look at what members of Congress are invested in private prisons companies, and look at the votes on this bill. It is atrocious that people are lining their pockets with private prison profits in the name of a horrific tragedy."

The Right is spinning it as a thanks to his followers. It will take time for them to see his actual self as he spirals out of control on a power-drunk spree. It will have to get much worse before it gets better. We have to be ready in four years with a plan to save our country.

painful lesson coming for the Republican center. They’ve elected a wrecking ball who has it in his mind that tearing down Democracy is the best thing for the world. As Trump spends his time lining his pockets and avoiding jail, we MUST plan for a future of rebuilding America.

If we on the Left can take the time to unite our own party and appear to moderate positions, we have a chance of picking up a disaffected middle that, this time through, thought Trump was the more reasonable choice. When that happens, there should be no “We told you so!” There will be a very 4/

the alliances absent the US. With our current political system of swinging wildly from Left to Right and back again, we’re becoming the destabilizing force in Western alliances, where we can’t be relied upon to carry through on promises that take more than four years to implement. 3/

Trumps agenda on taking apart the US and our alliances often seems to be bluster, but we have to let things get much worse before they have any chan e of getting better. Having Trump in power in the US and his withdrawal from global cooperatives such as WHO and possibly even NATO will strengthen…2/

The prevailing question on the Left now seems to be, “How do we stop Trump from destroying the country?” I believe that fighting him tooth and nail may be a mistake. We have to let the mainstream Republicans see what an utter disaster their leader is going to be, and be there to say, “See?” 1/

The Republicans are gloating. The Democrats are panicking. When we come out of this in four years, Trump will be a civilian forever and subject to the laws of the land. He will be the pathetic person he is for the rest of his life, and America will be tasked with picking up the pieces.

They got the idea from Ronald Reagan, who got Iran to agree not to release the hostages until he was president, who got the idea from Richard Nixon, who got South Vietnam to agree not to agree to peace before he was president.

Who cares if Americans get killed? Republicans wanted power.

Senator @maziehirono.bsky.social has made it a habit for years to ask this question of every nominee - man or woman - at their confirmation hearing. When Hirono, who sits on the Senate Armed Svcs Committee, asks this question of DOD Secy nominee Peter Hegseth, the answer will be disqualifying.

Repubs in the Senate & House, just know that once you cross the rubicon of politicizing aid to victims of natural disasters, that is a road that you don’t want to go down. Especially since your states seem to have a lot more of them, & you tend to lose your majorities quickly.

Thank you for the work you put into this pack. I looked at the first three or four members and hit “all.” We will have to work together to protect our Party from an increasingly radical and unstable Right.

Stay safe everyone! Picking up from a fellow Harris/Walz organizer and SoCal resident:

As fires continue to burn in Los Angeles and 10,000s are displaced, here are places you can find information, resources, and ways to help. I've verified each link. Please share and give what you can.
