You have a right to call any senator not just your own.

There are 53 Republican Senators. We only need 4 to flip to stop this.

Call every day. Ok to call off hours and blow up their VM.

Call every day
Blow up VM

Be vocal.

I went ahead and did the starting work for someone who wants to chase this angle. Most right-wing influencers who participated in the "Antifa" roundtable at the White House yesterday have easily provable ties to TPUSA (8 of 12). The other four need a closer look I don't have time for right now.

ICE stormtroopers deliberately shoot priest in the head during peaceful protest.

Welcome to Nazi America. If you still don't realize that Trump is a tyrannical dictator, you have brain damage.

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

I am not fearful — I am fearless.

We will fight these baseless charges aggressively, and my office will continue to fiercely protect New Yorkers and their rights..

The President of the United States is openly seeking revenge on his political opponents.

First Jim Comey. Now Tish James. Anyone who seeks to hold Donald Trump accountable could be next.

Trump is ripping a page right out of the authoritarian handbook.

The malicious prosecution of Attorney General Tish James is baseless.

And the indictment is not worth the paper it is written on.

This is very bad. Trump just put through Bill HR1526. CALL YOUR SENATORS!

They’re targeting New York Attorney General Letitia James for one reason: she had the courage to hold Donald Trump accountable.

This is political weaponization of our courts, plain and simple—and proof that when you stand up to corruption, they come for you.

Drip, drip, drip.

Every day that passes.

Every revelation of illegality.

Every norm and tradition broken.

Every act of cowardice from Congressional Republicans.

Every capitulation by corporations.

Every radical Supreme Court ruling.

Every day closer to authoritarian rule.

Drip, drip, drip.
