“To see so many people who frankly give a shit about their country, it really warms my heart. I’m trying really hard not to cry.” “Why this fight is so important is because there’s only one thing left for them to take, and that is our power.” - Texas House Democratic leader Gene Wu

Excellent summary of our dire situation We REALLY appreciate all positive efforts by leaders. Please ignore those who dismiss them, they don't understand. Plz remind people - Reps & SCOTUS enable Trump's abuses of power & people. They have power to fix it

He gave an inspirational message & I hope many answer the call. I can’t join the protests on Saturday, but I will call my governor here in Washington to see what his plans are to support Texas Democrats & keep Trump & his Nazi thugs out of our state!

👏👍 Also, those who can't make the Saturday protests in person can still help by promoting and signal-boosting the protests on social media, it all matters!

#onemillionrising #fightthetrumptakeover From last night's call: "Don't ever falsely equate people who are trying to give rights to people who have been oppressed, to the people who are doing the oppressing." -Gene Wu, TX State House Representative Chair

facts and hard truths.... i too have watch all i believed America would be for me die, dismantled in the name of capitalism and greed. toll roads owned for foreign nationals on American soil and we the people had no say so. large amounts of real estate owned by China and Russia etc you get my point

Placing blame on boomers was a little off course. It was more the money class & Republicans after Ronald Reagan who should be held responsible. The were the ones pushing the right leaning agenda. Not only pushing the country to the right but also the courts. Especially the Supreme Court!

We need a Project Comeback 2026 & really fast. Refute each point of the manifesto with the opposite & communicate the heck out of restored or newer more redeeming principles. It has 2 work for EVERYONE tho. It has to benefit the U.S. as a whole. EVERYONE is the key word. 🕊️🇺🇸❤️

Thanks to the quorum-busting TX legislators for giving us time to understand the situation Trump put TX in, allowing the formations of counterattacks, and slowing down the constant attacks on our intelligence, hope and faith that now pass daily through our lives. Giving us something to cheer for!

I try not to take the remark about boomers buying up property personally. Mr. Wu looks about my kid's age +/- and I know that generation sees boomers as the lucky ones. And we are. We are the last generation who has been able to live the dream, to have a good education, to own homes.

Yo, Gene Wu! You may want to revisit that “Boomer” comment you made & retract it. It was inappropriate and LAZY. Boomers are the main participants in the weekly/recurring protests I’ve been to in Washington & Baltimore. May Day and No Kings cut across the ages. Indivisible chapters are Boomer-heavy.

We needed an FDR size correction for this country in 2008. The people that caused the Great Recession never went to jail and some are still in charge of the same companies. The country needs the left turn more than ever.

Thank you so much for explaining this . We love our country, and it breaks my heart to see them not respect what we have built up in 249 years. We definitely need to do better. We must remove this administration and fix what’s wrong with our country. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

This Army veteran is calling on Blue States governors to deputize real patriotic veterans as Minutemen peacekeepers. We need to stop the 1%ers who are arming insurrectionists as ICE agents. It’s time to go after the billionaires French Revolution style 2.0. Death to tyrants is a rescue mission!
