That's a good start. 👍 Add taxing the rich. And banning criminals from running for any federal office. And banning the President, VP and Congress from trading stocks while in elected office. And, banning assault weapons.

Got to love how people completely misunderstand Project 2025. It isn't a wishlist of conservative policy proposals, it was a detailed plan to use executive power to reshape federal government. It's inherently authoritarian and undemocratic. I'd love for Dems to have a party platform with most

of those items on it, but they shouldn't be emulating Project 2025 - and most of this stuff can't be done in anything like that fashion. And I don't mean "can't" in the "It would be illegal, but do it anyway and make them try to stop you" way we're seeing.

A list like this should never exclude Universal Basic Income. It's a foundational policy that positively impacts so many other things we do. Like for example, M4A is great, but without UBI, we treat poverty and chronic insecurity effects. UBI improves health, reducing the cost of M4A.

There's a lot of misinformation out there about the concept of universal basic income. If you want to be well-informed, follow me and learn about what we know from studies in this thread: bsky.app/profile/scot... Here's a UBI starter pack too: bsky.app/profile/scot... And here's a UBI 101 link:

People need to vote for those who will progress forward! There was so much offered & voters not only went with the criminal but also gave him the house and congress! 😒

I can get behind all of that we know we have the people to write it up and get it done and present it to the people. We need to get to the people that can make it happen.

It’s a start to a broader conversation, fair and equitable income tax laws for instance. A billionaire exists when there is suffering from lack of basics, Ludicrous..

Maybe posted in jest, BUT, Dems, you HAVE to have something BIG to offer the voters, universal health care is one, but the damage already done, cannot just be undone, the IT systems WILL have to be replaced, so go BIG, and win big, have some off the wall ideas too, kick them around NOW 💙

Because the mere THOUGHT of GOP taking it all again is NOT up for discussion, you need to get it moving now, not trip over yourselves in 2028 ffs Also, make another list, of those who stood idly by, doing nothing, AND those who facilitated it all, AND ICE, they must pay 🤬🤬

Much as I would love to see a concerted, organized effort to eliminate all the bullshit from Project 2025 - the Democrat party has proven itself to be completely ineffective at anything. If they somehow managed to come up with a plan, they'd let it get ripped to shreds and fail without a fight.

We MUST HAVE the Tariff Tax itemized on ALL good and services!!!!! It's the only way consumers will know if businesses keep the prices jacked up after the Panican in Chief folds. We all know that once the price goes up, it rarely comes down. ReTrumplicans & Big business would never let this pass.

Please stop with the attempt at rebranding Project [Year] it’s forever ruined. Project 2029 sounds like a nightmare continuation of all this shit happening now. “The People’s Movement” or something similar, even with a year added, is leagues better.

Dems(as they are) getting this done is a pipe dream We need progress, not the old guard Some of them need to make way for the future There are too many that wouldn't fight for this

+ Bill of Rights for ALL Immigrants seeking a legal status affirming the active laws applicable + - info avail in primary language - access to knowledgeable legal counsel at no cost - right to medical care including access to medicines, especially if detained - access to make phone calls >1 DAILY

Fuck the president as a position as far as I am concerned. When we are defeated by the world and they have to rebuild our country, we need a parliamentary system. It is waaaay too easy for bad actors to destroy this current one

Lose the weapons ban and I am with you. Americans are never going to get on the side of Democrats if you keep pushing the weapons ban let it go. They're much more better nuanced ways to handle that situation.

Well Dem Leaders what's the plan? We can no longer allow you to putz around while Democracy is allowed to implode. Old Dem Geezers must step aside... including @chuckschumer.com to allow younger, more energetic, more transparent, more able bodied to fight for survival of our Country & Constitution.

This is exactly what needs to be happening. We need a plan. That’s ready to go when we regain power. We need to put some things in place that make it very difficult for evil parties like the Republicans to ever disregard our constitution again.

Also…take back all federal forests/parks, rehire federal workers in health, safety and nutrition, restate rights to public education and colleges, expand voting privileges with multiple ways to show citizenship (Canada has a list of 33), AND an amendment keeping felons out of Congress/ POTUS.

I get your point but the Constitution already sets the minimum requirements, any changes would require an amendment to the Constitution. We have a felon in the White House because the co-equal branch of government (the Judicial branch) allowed the felon’s name to remain on the ballot. 🤷🏾‍♀️

Make it illegal to hold a kkk or proud boys anything; and add in that it’s also illegal to be a hate group of which they are as well as the chistian nationalists . Make them illegal too. Ban them all for ever existing again!!!! Whatever it takes!!!! Makes them obsolete!!!!

End qualified immunity, defund the militarization of police forces, end internal investigations into wrongdoing, end police union, require they have insurance to pay for their own wrongdoing, not the taxpayers, end asset forfeiture against people not convicted of crimes

I'd start with 'Drain the swamp' and actually do it. No Superpacs - take the corruption out of politics. No elected official can trade on the stock market directly. All holdings with an independent agency, and for 2 years after their term. No board exec bonus if no tax paid to the US govt.

The letters that non attorneys make fun of are necessary first steps for the future hearings & litigationthat people claim to want when Democrats are in the majority again. The letters warn the recipients of the reasons for future action & demand that the recipient presreve their records for it.

Now do a "Dear America" one for voters to get off their asses and actually vote in a way that makes it possible for Dem leaders to fulfill that list.

Listen up and do the right thing. This is as serious as it gets. You don't want everyone to lose everything all in one generation's time, do you? OK then, we have a lot of important work ahead here. So get to it.
