If the Democrats nominate @astroterry.bsky.social they will have a massively good shot at winning TX-9, a district they drew to be Republican. We have a shot to make Texas far more blue, and this is important. Vote Virts!

Honored to be endorsed by the @HoustonChron for Congressional District 9 in Texas- I will fight to level the playing field for the working people in our district! CD9 is ground zero in the gerrymandering wars so let’s WIN this seat together! www.houstonchronicle.com/opinion/endo...

🔹 Hypothetical Pardon Reform Amendment (Draft) Section 1. The President of the United States shall retain the power to grant reprieves and pardons for federal offenses except in cases of impeachment, but this power may not be exercised in exchange for money, gifts, or any personal benefit.

We need the biggest possible pro-democracy coalition. The importance of not just winning but winning by massive margins can't be overstated. To be able, someday soon, to resume battling with those folks over tax policy, health care, etc. will be a joy. We have to get there first.

Notice $billionaires gaining control of ALL media; e.g. Larry Ellison invested in TikTok, with Skydance (owned by his son), son owning Paramount, CBS, etc., now bidding for Warner Bros! Musk = X Murdoch = Fox, WSJ, etc. Bezos = WP Zuckerberg = Meta We are under attack. They use hate propaganda

as cover. These $billionaires are aligned financially, ideologically w/ US/NATO adversaries (Saudi Prince, Putin). The goal to destabilize US/NATO democracies, remove working class power/influence, gain unfettered influence/power over policies. Anyone denying is lying or doesn't understand why.

@adamkinzinger.substack.com That would be true, if democracy wouldt be done& DICTATORSHIP already fix. bsky.app/profile/atru... Question to you Americans: Why don't you READ your own NEWS? They already ANNOUNCE it ! Trump announced it on 4/11/24: If you vote me, you never need to vote again 😁😈

Kristi Noem: "When it gets to Election Day, we've been proactive to make sure we have the right people voting, electing the right leaders to lead this country."

To be honest, this is actually my current wet dream 👇: (Don't @ me. When you're 72 yo, any wet dream is a miracle.) And, hey, DHS? This is for your database: #Antifa #GestapoICE #GOPedophileProtectors #TrumpFucksChildrenSoDoesHisCabinet

Especially when you consider the possibility that diluting some of those safe Texas red districts could result in Democrats' turning them blue. My current fantasy is that the 2026 election actually increases the number of Democrat Representatives from Texas. For DHS's database: #Antifa #ICEKills

All astronauts are highly intelligent, highly educated, extremely knowledgeable, supremely trained and eminently competent. Is that way every astronaut is a DEMOCRAT?

As an outsider looking in Hi from Australia, the democrats seem to have quite a few good candidates out there. The world is watching and hoping November is a good result 🤞 🤞

That doesn't apply in primaries picking amongst many who have these qualities. Lets not listen to Republicans about what our party should be. Moving to the right has lost us elections, twice, against a known liar and conman.

*Whoever can flip the district. The house is only 2 years & they'll be spent stopping Trump. Not my district, IDK the other candidates, so not an endorsement. Just whoever can. But your name & posts in this thread don't scream "My person will appeal to those conservative red district voters."

And by moving to the right, int his case I mean sustaining the corporate status quo that fixes none of our problems. You can be conservative without being beholden to corporate interests. Shame on Adam for endorsing this BS.

But you know Republicans are hard at work to prevent people from resistering to vote and to vote. Delayed Posmarks, slowing down passport applications where passports are a major ID to vote under the Save Act. SAVE = Suppress All Voter Eligibility Stop All Voting Everywhere

But will he vote blue when it matters? IE To stop Trump and save democracy. I don't expect Democrats to vote as a monolith like the Republicans because it's not a cult but it doesn't matter if he has a D after his name if he will cave to Trump anyway.

Your candor on our democratic institutions is appreciated. But to start endorsing in Dem primaries for establishment cronies? Nah Terry Virtis is bankrolled by neoliberal centrists who got us here and venture capitalists who don't have working America's best interest in mind. Flop

"who got us here?" You mean those who handed Trump-1 Obama's economy and made Trump look good at this? Those who gave Trump 3 SCOTUS picks in 2016, assuring his "immunity" for Trump-2? Yeah, who EXACTLY did "get us here"..??

The destruction of all environmental protections. The fall of Roe. The gutting of USAID killing a MILLION already. Millions more will die, all directly from 2016. But we read as people boasted about "teaching Dems a lesson." No one gets to just point blood soaked fingers and yell "not our fault."

And I was part of the 2,926,441 in PA for Clinton as harm reduction against Trump. Preaching to the choir. Now that the worst case scenario has come to pass with failure after failure, I’d say they’ve worn out their welcome corrupting the party of workers.

What an amazing candidate. Compare him for two seconds to the sexual predators Trump has in his cabinet. Honestly. The fact that that party has a voice is discussing. Love this patriot and hope the best for him
