Peacefully, but with fierce urgency! Recision and dramatic reform of DHS is the only way. @schumer.senate.gov @murray.senate.gov @cantwell.senate.gov

Hey Senator Schumer - do not give into the propaganda and go on offense! Please listen to Sen Warren and set a goal that will actually arrest the murder machine. Firm up, save the republic! bsky.app/profile/schu...

Ignore the propaganda and go on offense! Please. bsky.app/profile/schu...

bsky.app/profile/schu... Hey Senator - read this, do exactly this (including no closet workouts). We might hate you a little less if you dive into the ICE constitutional debacle with some vigor. You can yada, yada about affordability after you ACT to save our republic.

Important perspective from Greenland.

Democrats have more leverage to put important breaks on ICE, including its funding, than most people understand. I explain what they can do, and why they should do it now, in today’s piece, link in the replies.

Good things are possible and we don’t have to settle.

This is my new mantra. Get out and be seen and heard today. We need millions in the streets raising voices to conjure the change we so desperately need.

Precisely how a government should never, ever be run. We've got to stop them—so maybe we should ALL get on those planes to El Salvador with Sen. Van Hollen. But um, @murray.senate.gov and @cantwell.senate.gov ? It's a lot safer for you. AND IT'S YOUR JOB.

Perfect PNW marching conditions in Olympia WA Come out and be heard Washingtonians! #HandsOff

George was waxing human - I saw the soulful distress that pangs me. The key is to channel it into protest energy. The political and institutional structures can’t/won’t respond fast enough to save the Republic. Get out and express your distress! Tomorrow! Please. #HandsOff Handsoff2025.com

Our democracy is being dismantled and our populace is being terrorized by a clown car of pricks who’ve never known kindness, empathy, humor, rhythm, style, or consensual sex without the exchange of money or favors.

Make like the South Koreans. And the Israelis. Show the world that we can stand up for ourselves. April 5, everywhere: handsoff2025.com

Hey, hey! Ho,ho! Video from U-Village Seattle #TeslaTakedown on 3/29. It was a large and enthusiastic crowd. And Congresswoman Jayapal showed up! @jayapal.house.gov #Teslatakedown has the juice! @teslatakedown.com

Pete Hegseth is a f*cking liar. This is so clearly classified info he recklessly leaked that could’ve gotten our pilots killed. He needs to resign in disgrace immediately.

That doesn't mean it's okay for Chuck to focus on promoting his book instead of listening to constituents or keeping his agreement with House Dems. Schumer still prioritizes decorum and norms. We're past that. We can't afford to wait to fight back.

Good energy at the @teslatakedown.com protest in Seattle today. #TeslaTakedown

Time to get “General Strike” into your usual lexicon.

Thank you Speaker Pelosi! @schumer.senate.gov you need to take some advise and leadership from the women!

@chuckschumer.com @schumer.senate.gov Vote NO. Your excuses are only that—excuses. This Republican bill turns Elon Musk and his band of teenaged morons loose to destroy our democracy! I’m furious with you! Listen to Nancy Pelosi!!

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!

It should be very clear to every Senate Democrat that any vote for Cloture will also be considered a vote for the bill. People aren’t going to be tricked with procedural games. They know exactly what is going on. Defend Medicaid. Vote NO on Cloture. NO on bill.

🚨 Everyone needs to call their Dem Senator right now. They are starting to cave. Tell them: 1. Vote NO on Cloture AND 2. Vote NO on the Republican spending bill. Don’t let them pivot to reconciliation. GOP doesn’t need Dem votes on that and they know it. TODAY is the showdown. 🤳🏽: (202) 224-3121

It is honestly, for some of them at least, completely baffling.

"Civil disobedience becomes a sacred duty when the state becomes lawless or corrupt." - Gandhi

“anger… should be directed at the eunuchs in Congress incapable of legislating any meaningful change because obstruction is preferable over compromise.”

It's just enormously important to understand that the goal of this tariff policy isn't to raise money or to increase manufacturing in the United States. The goal is to make some of the nation's largest companies subject to Trump's personal discretion and dependent on his favor.

French Senator Claude Malhuret: "Washington has become Nero’s court, with an incendiary emperor, submissive courtiers and a jester high on ketamine... We were at war with a dictator, we are now at war with a dictator backed by a traitor."

Solid protest showing today in Olympia, WA. People are pissed. About all of it.

SNL nailed this cold open with Agent Orange and Mike Myers as Phony Stark! We need to create humor and joy as resistance when and where we can. Remember how they mocked VP Harris' laugh? Sincerity is offensive to miserable narcissists. Joy is rebellion. Satire is rebellion. Laughter is rebellion.

Zelensky is a wartime leader watching his people suffer and die under Russian attacks every day. To be lectured and lied to by Trump and Vance, as they defend the war criminal dictator committing these atrocities, is unimaginable agony. An everlasting shame for America.

Piglet and Pooh, sitting together on a log: “What day is it today?” asked to Pooh. “It’s the day we expose the Broligarchy and take back our Republic!” squealed piglet. “My favorite day!” said Pooh.

The sign I made for 50501 Gotta rally… shit’s on fire

In his parting message @jimacosta.bsky.social said we should all post: I will not give into the lies. I will not give into the fear. We understand the assignment, Jim. And fuck @cnn.com.

I will not give to the lies. I will not give in to the fears. Jim Acosta 🐐
