Nevertheless, we persist.
More of this, please. Thank you @booker.senate.gov for standing up for democracy.
WE’VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS!

Cory Booker is throwing down—filibustering & standing up to Trump’s authoritarian overreach.

This is what we need—Dems who disrupt, resist, and fight back. Booker’s stand is a rallying cry for all of us to demand better.

Why don’t some of the good billionaires step up and help fund universities so they can keep their DEI policies and continue doing impt research and offering vital services for LGBTQ+ students without govt funding? Do not cave to this authoritarian administration. Be better than that.

Every little act of resistance helps.
For those interested, go into your Spotify, search Carrie Underwood, click the three dots, click do not play this artist. I know that this seems like a David and Goliath battle but every little bit of resistance matters.
The root of this is and always has been money and that’s where we resist.

On a cross country flight now and would never have guessed that it would be Hairspray that would snap me out of my election depression. Have watched the closing number half a dozen times already. Hope my seatmate is also feeling the joy. LOL

Dear @repjasmine.bsky.social what do you think about this?
WHY WOULD YOU NOT DO THIS? When Dems refuse to use power based on long-gone collegiality/tradition, it demoralizes/enrages us. It's f*king weak

But, as it's The House, not Senate, w Crockett, Swalwell, Raskin, Lieu, Plaskett, Goldman..surely we can find an arse kicking, 21st Century Dem to do this?
Just a friendly reminder to any Dems on the House Ethics Committee that they are fully protected constitutionally if they decide to read the whole Matt Gaetz ethics report into the record on the House floor….

ENOUGH. This powerful piece by Roxane Gay is a must read. "To suggest we yield even a little to Mr. Trump’s odious politics, to suggest we should compromise on the rights of trans people, and all of the other critical issues we care most about is unacceptable." www.nytimes.com/2024/11/17/o...
Opinion | Enough
To suggest we should yield even a little to Trump’s odious politics is unacceptable. Even if we did, it would never be enough.
