Yet women can’t allegedly meet physical fitness standards. We were the problem? GTFOH.

The only reason he hasn’t been is because the Republicans won’t do it. Period. I haven’t been thrilled with the Democratic Party, but they would’ve snatched his ass up already.

The campaign against “antifa” is about establishing a beachhead for further attacks on speech and assembly rights. We see that today in the effort to preemptively label No Kings protesters as “terrorists.”

The government is in full shutdown and the Republicans are refusing to call the House back into session.

Want to know why?

Because we have secured the final vote on releasing the Epstein Files and they don’t want it out.

Call GOP and tell them to swear in @adelitaforcongress.bsky.social.

The story of 2024 is this: Trump had a plan to destroy American government called Project 2025, which had, literally, not a typo, a 4% approval rating. He lied constantly and said he wouldn't do it.

Then he entered office and immediately implemented AN EVEN MORE EXTREME VERSION OF IT.

Pope Leo: "Someone who says 'I'm against abortion', but is in favor of the death penalty, is not really pro-life. Someone who says 'I'm against abortion, but I'm in agreement with the inhuman treatment of immigrants who are in the United States', I don't know if that's pro-life."

Most of the power authoritarians have is freely given. We should not comply with them in advance.

Trump is far weaker than he looks. So is the GOP. We should draw them out, drain them at every opportunity, and fight for people’s wellbeing at every turn.

We have been sent here to fight for people.

AOC: I think there's two things that are happening at once: One, there absolutely is an unprecedented abuse of power, destruction of norms, erosion of our government and our democracy in order to prop up an authoritarian style of governance

However, they are weaker than they look…

Trump admitted in the Oval Office he is shutting the government down. Democrats are ready to stop your health insurance costs from doubling.
