If we have free and fair midterm elections, Democrats will likely regain majorities in both the House and Senate.

Here’s a sampling of what would happen then:

- Impeachments:

Of Trump and some in his cabinet, especially Bondi, Patel, Vought and Noem. Pick any multitude of their crimes.

I legit just saw a spike of flu in Australia (outside of flu season) & am seeing it around in Thailand now….so when I see influencers telling people “it doesn’t make much sense to get a flu shot now ”, I’m disappointed by their myopic approach to public health.
Quick reminder that it’s NOT too late to get your flu shot.
Influenza B cases are rising—which is typical around this time of respiratory virus season. Cases will likely continue to climb for a few more weeks.

This is a very good article describing the Trump administration’s attacks on the midterm elections. We should be concerned about what’s happening, and ready to call out the BS, but not resigned to defeat (of democracy), b/c the attacks aren’t going to work. We (all) aren’t going to let that happen.
His attacks on the midterms are real and dangerous… and aren’t going to work. Running down the case for an optimistic threat assessment @theunpopulist.net :

Utterly unacceptable in a democracy. In a sane world, House Republicans would be drafting impeachment articles today and Senate Republicans would be preparing for a trial to convict and remove him from office

If the Democrats nominate @astroterry.bsky.social they will have a massively good shot at winning TX-9, a district they drew to be Republican. We have a shot to make Texas far more blue, and this is important. Vote Virts!
Honored to be endorsed by the @HoustonChron for Congressional District 9 in Texas- I will fight to level the playing field for the working people in our district!

Trump and Mike Johnson took a huge hit as the House rejected a rule meant to stop challenges to Trump’s tariffs. The 214 to 217 loss came after Republicans Don Bacon, Thomas Massie, and Kevin Kiley voted with all Democrats.

Huge rebuke of Trump and Johnson in the House tonight. This was a very bad day on the Hill today for the regime.
This was a very important vote tonight. Here's why.

For the past year Trump’s illegal tariffs have crushed our economic growth, hit American families with higher costs, killed the very manufacturing jobs we were told they would multiply, and alienated our closest allies. 1/
Republican rule vote FAILS.

Republican leaders just tried to use a procedural vote to continue their surrender of congressional powers to prevent Trump's abuse of tariff authorities.

Three Republicans, Reps. Massie, Bacon, and Kiley, joined all Democrats to block them.

DOJ policy provides that prosecutors should seek charges only when “the admissible evidence will probably be sufficient to obtain and sustain a conviction.” Not even even a close call here. What an embarrassment.

Now she pleads the 5th across the board & offers to clear Trump’s name in exchange for clemency.
