Chop Wood, Carry Water 6/9 Wild times.

As a Californian I feel calls to my representatives don't make much difference in opposing Trump. "Chop Wood, Carry Water" has a script to call Marriott corporate headquarters to object to their housing ICE agents. I reached an agent who documented my objection.

AOC Warns Senate Democrats to Vote No on Cloture β€œI hope Senate Democrats understand there is nothing clever about setting up a fake failed 30 day CR first to turn around & vote for cloture on the GOP spending bill. Those games won’t fool anyone."

Today is the day to call your Democratic Senators and tell them to vote NO on cloture. See AOC's reasons why here: www.thedailypoliticususa.com/p/aoc-warns-...

Said it many times now, including today on the pod: the signal failure these past weeks, distinctly Democratic, was failure to lay out conditions far in advance. No Dem votes for Big Lie nominees. No Dem CR votes unless the crime ends. Shape discourse at the outsetβ€”before they beat you to the punch.

Post by Tammy Duckworth with the text: '@SecDef
 Hegseth says he doesn’t know if Russia invaded Ukraine. This you?' The post includes two screenshots from Fox News broadcasts, each showing a news anchor in a suit standing in front of a map of Ukraine, with headlines reading 'TRACKING RUSSIA'S INVASION OF UKRAINE' and 'WAR ON UKRAINE.' Both screenshots are circled in red to highlight the content.

After this tweet went viral, Jesse and I talked about the possibility of a recession for my newsletter. You can also listen to it on your favorite podcast app! Just search for The Cross Section.

Hard not to feel like this is going to end exactly as we think. The president of a democratic country is approvingly quoting Napoleon.

Totally agree. The mainstream media must do better - we are in the midst of a constititional crisis and a coup.
