I'm looking forward to 2029 when we remove and destroy every aspect of Trump's name on federal property like US forces taking down everything with Saddam Hussein on it.
That's the bare minimum any Dem should do. Leave no trace of his existence.

Indiana’s Senate has voted AGAINST the GOP gerrymander that’d have locked in a 9-0 map.
This keeps the 7-2 map in place, saving two Democratic seats heading into 2026.
The vote failed big, 19/31.
The MAJORITY of the GOP senators opposed it!

Their complaints that Dems oppose the “rural hospital fund” are so hilarious.
Kind of like: “I’m going to burn down your house and give you a chocolate chip cookie instead.”
“That sounds terrible.”
“What you don’t like chocolate chip cookies!?”

Obviously, this is loser shit, but I think AI has really cemented itself as the visual language of fascism. It's anti-human, flattened, uninteresting, and cheap. It's like looking at a Potemkin Village and thinking that's the same as architecture.

It is actually nuts that even when the NYC political establishment was presented with a broad field of talented candidates w/ many ideas, in a time of generational change & anti-corruption, they STILL chose to line up behind scandal-ridden Andrew Cuomo.
It’s cowardice.

This is good stuff, but PLEASE at least call out Schumer by name. The man has to go. It is incredibly damaging to have him be the face of the Democratic Party and there are so many better options for the job in the senate.
Here's my wrap on Pritzker in NH - really tough rhetoric on both "do-nothing" Democrats who don't want to pick fights w Trump and Republicans who he says will go down in history as quislings. www.semafor.com/article/04/2...
Illinois governor makes the case for a fighting Democratic Party in New Hampshire
Gov. JB Pritzker had harsh words for the “do-nothing Democrats” who’d hoped that “a simple defense of norms and decorum” would convince Republicans to change.

New approval polls note that Trump has “bottomed out” at 43%. We should be shocked it’s that high, not that low. If 43% of Americans watched their house burn down and still said the arsonist is doing a great job, we’d call that a cult.
