Nobody in the US is going to be able to do anything to help Gaza if we are living under authoritarianism. We are going to start seeing deaths in this country skyrocket from a lack of public health, healthcare and food.

This is an oxygen mask situation. Hold Dems accountable, but build coalitions!

No Kings • October 18th, 2025.

Because I want freedom, not the neo-feudalism that Trump and Th*el are trying to bring.

Because the GOP no longer follows the law and denies us our rights!

Because the GOP is terrorizing the American people.

@conrad4congress.bsky.social is a pro Medicare for all Democrat running against Mike Johnson. Let's get him some attention!

There is absolutely a left wing. The Dems might currently not be left wing, but people are. And the people need one place to gather.

Class warfare, left wing, right wing, whatever we need one banner. Dems have the structure. But people need to get involved to make change. What is can change.

We are doing a free public health outbreak response training in our department soon. We're still learning and working.

The federal response may have been affected tonight, but they won't be able to erase the science.

I'm trying to be more specific with my complaints-calling out the DNC when it specifically is failing, calling out my senators specifically when their votes suck, "some Dems are..."

Deeply disappointed in @bennet.senate.gov and @hickenlooper.senate.gov yes votes on the NDAA today. They did not need to vote yes on such a harmful bill.

Y'all have been doing so well, but just took a giant dump on the work you're doing on the shutdown.

Yeah giving it to someone who isn't messy might give people too many ideas.

A Qatari air force base in the continental US feels illegal, like it should be illegal, or require congress.

Is there precedent for this?

I stand with Letitia James! She has a great attorney, and it should be fairly easy to show she wasn't intentionally committing fraud. We're going to have to wait and see how things play out. So far no one will co-chair with Halligan, and she's never tried a criminal case - let alone against an AG.

New statement from AG James:

"This is nothing more than a continuation of the president's desperate weaponization of our justice system.

The Dems are doing the right thing by standing up for American's healthcare. There's no provision in their bill for "Illegal Aliens".

Legal immigrants are called "Aliens" in government documents.

Hospitals get paid for providing emergency care so they don't close due to bankruptcy.

ICE is surveilling Americans (without due process).

ICE is monitoring the location of hundreds of millions of people (citizens as well) through cell phones.

ICE is arresting, shooting and assaulting American citizens.

ICE is an unregulated gestapo. ICE is a human rights violation.

Dems are talking about things everyday. 1) It's hard to name every specific incident- that is by design

2) Dem accounts are being throttled in algorithms (For bake you have to be following accounts or similar to see posts)

3) Almost all traditional media is owned by maga now. Dems can't get on.

My favorite part editor once said to me "Writers like you give editors jobs."

I wasn't mad.

An actual hot take: Too many authors are afraid of editors watering down their voice or whatever and not afraid enough of editors letting you put any old slop on the page.

In our County Democratic Party monthly executive meeting (It's open to the public). So far we've heard directly from people working on Colorado's rail protect. The project starts with stops from Denver to Fort Collins. And now we're hearing from the executive director. He's highlighting new

Dershowitz is also afraid of the Epstein Files!

The House seems to be shut down over the Epstein Files (closed hours after treasury info on Epstein's account became available).

Trump is sending the military to invade our cities because of the Epstein Files.

I was in an active duty family, I'm low income, a care taker for my daughter, and my only source of income is Medicaid.

I understand how hard it can be and I'm sorry
