Make no mistake, if the filibuster is not removed, even if we win, the Republicans will be right back in power in 4-8 years. And with people who will make us wish we had Trump back... who knows, maybe Stephen Miller himself will be at the helm?

Well let's see...
-raising the minimum wage
-codifying Roe v. Wade
-permanent child tax credit

Just like how Donald Trump will never be president because he is just not very nice....

Because the dems could have passed legislation that would have made people's lives better.

Media and Dems need to ask about this when Republicans talk about how "anti-crime" they are.

Thank you, Mike Johnson! No Kings Day signups have doubled since Republicans started lying about our peaceful protests.

Q: What's your message to the 170 US citizens who have been detained by ICE? About 20 of them are children

MIKE JOHNSON: I don't know what you're talking about with the children. I haven't seen that so I'm not going to comment on it.

True, that is generous. Diet Republican is more accurate.

Don't forget hypocritical... braying about "vote blue no matter who" but then refusing to respect the results of the primary when they don't win.

Is Florida that fucking dangerous? I'm in NYC and I've never even thought about carrying a gun in a grocery store.

Nadine Smith @nadinesmith.bsky.social · 2d

Publix now allows the open carry of guns in all FL stores.

Is that armed man on your aisle the next mass shooter or someone just stocking up for the cookout?

How dangerous is this?

Publix bans open carry at its own headquarters, where the executives who made this decision go to work.

Not until election day.

Turns out it was a mistake to organize government based on the assumption that everyone acts in good faith...

Now we need a constitutional amendment that an elected member of Congress is deemed sworn in after X days if not actually sworn in. Add it to the list of amendments we will need.

Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal @jayapal.house.gov · 2d

It’s been three weeks since Adelita Grijalva won her election, but Mike Johnson is refusing to swear her in — all because she would be the final signature needed on the discharge petition to release the Epstein files.

He’s denying AZ-07 a voice in Congress. Swear her in now.

Cuomo is basically a Republican at this point.

There is someone on the debate stage who hates a certain religion and it’s adherence and that is Andrew Cuomo.

He has always been xenophobic towards Muslims. I, in fact, tried personally to get him to visit a mosque during his term in office and he would not.

Will they ask Cuomo how hes going to pay for 5000 new police with higher salaries???? No?? Surprising.

JD Vance when people makes jokes about Charlie Kirk: "call their employer."

JD Vance when Republican staffers say "I love Hitler" and fantasize about throwing political opponents in gas chambers: "that's what kids do...we're not canceling kids because they did something stupid."

They forgot Abdul El-Sayed, who is also running for Senate in MI, and whom Bernie Sanders endorsed.

Nearly every media outlet is announcing they will refuse to sign the Pentagon’s new rule stating they cannot report information if it’s not government “authorized.”

Even Newsmax is refusing to sign.

We have armed secret police kidnapping people off the street based on the color of their skin.

When we win: we will haul them before a Senate committee. The masks will come off. There will be consequences.
