A fan of silly jokes and stories about people reluctantly falling in love with the family cat. Trying to forget about politics right now but doing a horrible job of it. I love finding old music videos on YT.

You can’t say criminals don’t deserve due process when due process is the thing that decides if they're criminals. Otherwise you're just kidnapping people you don't like.

Jon Ossoff: “People across the country are fearful by design. The point is to make people afraid. Afraid to dissent. Afraid to be here at all. The erosion of civil rights and civil liberties in this country right now is happening at so swift a rate, unlike anything we’ve seen in American history”

Walz: If you say you love freedom but you don't believe freedom is for everybody, then the thing you love is not freedom, it is privilege.

This flew under the radar, but Trump revoked a minimum wage hike for companies that contract with the government. An estimated 390,000 workers will now see significant pay cuts. It's not surprising that Trump's populism is fake, but it's hardly ever been more clear.

Bernie is right.

Bernie Sanders: "I think this is a prelude not only to cutting benefits, but to privatizing Social Security ... why do you lie so much about Social Security? Why do you make it look like it's a broken system? The reason is to get people to lose faith in the system so you can give it over to Wall St"

Do not let Trump gaslight you into believing he has a mandate or is all powerful. Most Americans don't support his agenda. There will be backlash — and we must make sure it is swift.

This is what is most frustrating about the Democrats in Congress.

I am looking at a chamber filled with hundreds and hundreds of people, and if you asked me to seriously estimate what percentage of them understand how deep in the s*** we are right now, I mean really truly understand how close America is to full collapse, I would put the number at between 10 and 20

Trump didn't win 50% of the popular vote. The GOP has slim margins in both the House and Senate. His approval ratings are tanking. He does not have a mandate. Do not let him gaslight you into believing he is all powerful. He's not.

Farmers are going to run to Congress for another handout to deal with the retaliatory tariffs and the answer from Dems has to be "no." This isn't out of retribution, it's because we can't keep creating escape hatches for GOP members of Congress. For the benefit of all, keep the pressure on them.

NASDAQ plunges to pre-election levels as Trump‘s tariffs set to take effect. Nearly 60% of Americans believe Trump’s tariffs will be inflationary despite his gaslighting.
