Hey so uhh call your Senator and implore them to stand up for democracy and stand with Senator #Booker

The dems have an opportunity to meet the moment. Let them know that we’re watching.

☎️: (202) 224-3121

KEEP CALLING. PEEL OFF ALL DEM SENATORS YOU CAN.

☎️: (202) 224-3121

Tell them to vote NO on Cloture and NO on CR. Vote is pushed to after 1:15ish for now. Situation is fluid.

The only public YES votes are Schumer and Fetterman. They need 7-8 total. KEEP CALLING.

Call retiring Senators too!

Hey Newsom, what more do we need to learn/hear about from the fascists that have been at the center of GOP politics for the last 10 years? Why are we continuing to use left leaning platforms to elevate these people?

Again I just find it interesting that you’re able to recognize parallels between 1933 Germany in some contexts but not others. Again I implore you to look inward and think about why that is.

Nah man. We’re not moving goal posts. You defended Gavin Newson having him him, you defended platforming a known Nazi. I recommend looking inward.

Seems a bit incongruent to share a post saying that β€œAmerica is facing its Germany 1933 moment” yet defend platforming a Nazi? Very confusing to me.

#transkids are going to die as a result of #Trump executive orders. For someone who has nominated an HHS Secretary who purports to "care about the safety of kids" you'd think they would do everything they can to ensure that CHILDREN do not die by suicide.

Less than 24 hours after the tragic plane crash in DC and the β€œsomething’s not adding up” crowd is already churning out nonsense. Making sense of tragedy is hard, but we gotta do better.

I called my (democratic) representative today because I rely on federal funding (from multiple sources) to go to school. The response from his staffer was β€œthe representative cares about federal funding”

We are so cooked.

Kansas tuberculosis outbreak is now America's largest in recorded history Kansas public health officials say the state's ongoing tuberculosis outbreak is the largest since the CDC started reporting TB cases in the 1950s.

There is a TB outbreak in #Kansas. While the number of active and latent cases have fallen, how long until #Trump CDC communication policies negatively impact the communities ability to respond to this highly contagious illness?

Trump fires at least 12 independent inspectors general in late-night purge The dismissals could clear the way for the president to install loyalists in the crucial role of identifying fraud, waste and abuse in the government.

5 days in and #Trump can’t help but break federal laws. What is it that conservatives like to say? Once a criminal always a criminal?

You would think that republican men who are proclaim interest in WWII and watch the history channel constantly would be able to immediately identify one of the most recognizable symbols of the enemy of the United States during said war….. almost like there’s some…sympathy there

If you ever followed the official POTUS or Vice POTUS account on IG, FB, or twitter when it was Biden/Harris, you’re now following Trump/Vance. That’s how those official gov accounts work. Please stop spreading misinformation about being β€œforced” to follow an account.

I don’t really care that #Biden pardoned his family.

What I care about is that he clearly views #Trump as a legitimate threat and instead of doing anything to hinder Trump’s agenda to harm Americans at large, he looked out for himself.

Selfish.
