I use the term "Let's Roll!" a lot.

I use it to honor Mark Bingham's courage on 9/11/01, & everyone who stood with him to keep that plane from hitting its target.

He will forever be a hero. I didn't know him, but I know he'd be with us today.

Let's Roll!

This is Mark Bingham.
He was one of the heroes who stormed the cockpit door on Flight 93 on the morning of September 11, 2001.

He was also a gay American.

While many Americans don't want to admit that a gay man could exhibit such bravery, he will forever be an American hero.

Not the taking a shit on the rule of law kind of GOP rules, but certainly drop any decorum or pretext that the GOP can be trusted.

That said, Uncle Sam would like a word, @democrats.org
@housedemocrats.bsky.social @democrats.senate.gov
@hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social @chuckschumerfp.bsky.social

Uncle Sam says, "I want YOU Democrats to stop playing by YOUR rules & start playing by THEIRS."

I frequently share this on his two FB pages, with a tag so he knows I'm talking to him.

He never responds... 🤷

No one is covering the GOP's scheme to rig congressional maps for 2026 as closely as Democracy Docket. It is providing gavel to gavel coverage of the ongoing hearing over whether the Texas gerrymander will be in place for the midterms.

This is completely legit to ask.

Why NOT bring her & a family member to DC & to be sworn in?

I'll do it for free, but it has to be via Zoom becuz I'm in St. Louis.

I am legit ordained, btw.

Take a family member with you to DC, @adelitaforcongress.bsky.social .

That is the excuse Mikey gave for swearing in the two GOPers; they brought family with them.

I'll chip in $50 for their ticket.

Will this allow CA to redraw the maps in a way that compensates for my state of MO redrawing ours?

Ex: TX took 5, we took 1, can CA draw to cover for the extra MO GOP district?

Who will get elected to represent you and your community in government?

A YES vote means California will temporarily use new Congressional maps drawn by Democratic state officials to elect Congressional representatives in 2026, 2028 and 2030.

For our Chicago Resistance

AnarchoTerran @anarchoterran.bsky.social · 3d

If you see illegally parked ICE/US Gov vehicles in Chicago, please report for towing:

To report an illegally parked vehicle in Chicago and request a tow truck, call 3-1-1 or use the CHI311 app. Provide details such as the location, day, and time of the incident.

Kerri The Ally 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️🇺🇸🌊🇨🇦🇺🇦 @rushgirl3.bsky.social · 2d

Yes we will.

And WHEN it happens, I picture something similar to the celebrations at the end of "Return of the Jedi".

It may not seem like it now, it may seem like they're growing in strength every day.

But that's a lie.

WE are growing in strength.

Stay strong!

You're a special kind of stupid if you can look at this "boot-licking sycophant with no pride and no spine" and think, "now that's a guy I admire!"

AOC: "Stephen Miller is a CLOWN. He looks like he's 4’10”. He looks like he's angry about the fact that he's 4’10”. He's taking that anger out at any other population possible. Like, LAUGH AT THEM. Laugh at them."
