Delayed train notice.

Delayed train notice.

Just pulled out of the Berlin Hbf and the @deutschebahn.com bullshit begins. At this point just notify me if the train is ever going to be on time.

Unless the party gets its act together they’ll f*ck this up too.

I have no faith anymore that they will not screw this up.

Can’t we do more? Why do we just accept things? Republicans have played dirty tricks. Why can’t we?

Unfortunately it’s a law without consequences. We need to stop letting politicians off the hook. Their laws need consequences also.

So China is taking action to reduce the impact on their people. What is the trump admin doing? I mean outside of telling little girls only to buy 2 dolls and 5 pencils.

Tariffs are taxation without representation. We wrote a whole Declaration of Independence about it. Threw tea in the harbor and everything.

America is loosing its democracy and the best thing you can think of to do is tour a hospital for a photo op? Resign so someone serious can take your spot.

@schumer.senate.gov Resign so that someone else more effective can serve our country. You’re being selfish.

Mayday May 1: Camp Mayday, a vision of protest, art and change. Daily demonstrations. Art as resistance.

Get ready for a continuous occupation of the National Mall until Donald Trump is impeached and removed from office. #3E #EndOligarchy #USProtests

It is what it is. Your vote is exactly an endorsement and we need to find a replacement for you next term.

Naw, you just don’t know how to be effective in this new environment. I will get more involved in Democrats Abroad so we can vote out the old guard. You guys are done.

We need to get the old school democrats out of office. This old crap won’t work anymore. You’re playing into the GOP. Such a disappointment.

Youβ€˜re throwing away your legacy platforming these guys.

I don’t understand the strategy of wasting our time on stupid bills like this we know won’t pass. This is old-school dem messaging that is ineffective in our new world. We need to take more action and be more confrontational.

After the podcast you’re done. I can’t trust you anymore. Another democrat thats crap for the country.

Yes!! People like Nancy Pelosi and Elisabeth Warren also need to act up like this instead of just making statements to the press that they’re supporting stupid bills that will never pass because we have no majority. The old guard needs to change and do this also.

The media hasn’t taken any bait. They weren’t fooled or manipulated. They are complicit in all this.

At this point he’s functionally correct. The president has unchecked power and no one is willing to stand up to him.

We’ve all seen this movie before. Happened a lot faster than I was expecting. If Elon gets out his wallet again, we’ll hear Trump also decry the media, otherwise he’ll say he hardly knew the guy.

But will the media report it that way? Or will they just repeat the republican talking points?

A lie detector test doesn’t make a difference if they will still vote to confirm these people. *Everyone* knew they were lying.

The Democratic Party will never change if people like Chuck Schumer keep getting re-elected to leadership positions. Get these dinosaurs out, the RNC has changed and we need new leaders that can adapt and fight back.
