Organization is key. Register blue voters, join your local grassroots org. Showing up is key. When these SOB's return to their districts, if they have town halls, question them. Bring friends. Numbers are what matter. Voting is key. Every election State, local, federal. Every seat matters.

My heart is heavy. Walter Koenig, our Ensign Pavel Chekov, passed away early today. Walter and I met on the bridge of the Enterprise in the 1960s, and we stayed friends for nearly six decades. When Brad and I married in 2008, Walter stood beside us as our best man.

None of you Garland bashers, who actually promote Russian disinformation in doing so, understand the intricacies of USA Law, and the enormous task which honorable Garland undertook, nor the enormous amount of obstruction of Justice by Republicans, Federalist Society SCOTUS, & corrupt judge A Cannon.

Republicans failed to rush their spending bill through Congress this week, but we know the GOP isnโ€™t done trying to shovel over $70 billion more of our tax dollars to ICE and Border Patrol. We need to keep building pressure and create even more cracks in the fragile MAGA coalition.
