I'm so enraged and disgusted with our VA Dem leaders. I had such high hopes. Spineless, weak. Stupid. Blind.

NEW: Gov. Spanberger said Virginia will use its current congressional map for the midterms, as Democrats wait for SCOTUS to weigh in on the state’s voter-approved redistricting referendum. She appeared to suggest election deadlines have effectively blocked Democrats from using their proposal.

Virginians: Today's the last day to vote on an important redistricting measure. I hope you'll vote YES—for Virginia, and for the entire country. You have a chance to help level the playing field as Republicans seek an unfair advantage in Congress. Please take it. Get more info: IWillVote.com/VA

According to the Cato Institute, The Trump administration is reportedly receiving millions of immigration applications, pocketing the hefty fees, and never processing the applications. It’s collected over $1 billion in fees so far. Where is the outcry over this fraud and abuse?

Boom! So proud of soon to be Speaker Jeffries!!!

Jeffries: "Do we think that the Trump Dept of Injustice is gonna actually conduct a credible investigation? These extremists and political hacks at the DOJ have been weaponizing the criminal justice against Donald Trump's enemies."

Trump promised to lower costs “on day one.” His own data shows he’s failing to deliver – but he’s lying and claiming he brought costs down anyway. How can you trust Trump to make things better when he can’t even admit you’re hurting in the first place?

URGENT: These senators just caved to Trump and advanced a measure that would leave 22 million Americans with astronomically high health care premiums. They know that this bill means millions of people will choose to go without health insurance, because they can’t afford it.

Yes, Joni, we are all going to die. But it shouldn't be our SENATORS who are killing us.

No thanks. It's hard to enjoy things recreationally while listening to someone contributing to the decline of Democracy. Sorry

God dammit. Timing couldn’t be worse but here goes. Chuck Schumer and I are launching our new podcast “Soul Deep: A Weekly Deep Dive Into the Music of Collective Soul” tomorrow. I do NOT support his latest decision and want to make clear this is strictly a music podcast. Please check it out

I’m calling for new leadership in the Democratic Party. So many democrats want to do the right thing, but leadership is stopping them with the unspoken threat of refusing to give them leadership positions down the road. NEW DEM LEADERSHIP NOW!! #NewDemLeadership

Democrats must stand strong and vote against this GOP garbage. If Republicans want to keep the government open, then they can come up with a fair bill. Period. End of story.

dizlizardo.bsky.social reposted

Republicans cut Democrats entirely out of their process for the CR, didn't want any of our input, and would have been blamed by a majority of the American public for a government shutdown. There was no reason to cave to them. Chuck Schumer has to go.

dizlizardo.bsky.social reposted

Okay so, is Schumer voting for the CR because shutting down the government is worse? If so, why? And does the DNC support it? If not, why not? The problem with all this is that WE DO NOT KNOW.

AOC: It is almost unthinkable why Senate Democrats would vote to to hand the few pieces of leverage that we have away for free when we've been sent here to protect social security, protect medicaid, and protect medicare.

Done! I got through to VM at least for Schumer and Fetterman. I'm so disgusted with Dem leadership.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez@aoc.bsky.social

KEEP CALLING. PEEL OFF ALL DEM SENATORS YOU CAN. ☎️: (202) 224-3121 Tell them to vote NO on Cloture and NO on CR. Vote is pushed to after 1:15ish for now. Situation is fluid. The only public YES votes are Schumer and Fetterman. They need 7-8 total. KEEP CALLING. Call retiring Senators too!

You are up to date.
