When you project out for many months the rapidly accelerating pace of Trump’s cognitive decline which is exacerbating exponentially the worst aspects of his malignant narcissism, and start from a baseline of where he’s at right now,
we are in for a rough ride on his crazy train.

and dissolve ICE. DHS was clearly a bad idea from the beginning. Just the name "homeland" has overtones of fascism. Need to impeach and prosecute the corrupt 6 of SCOTUS or at least expand court until they are meaningless at next opportunity.

#impeachconvictprosecute trump and his cabal (aka cabinet) should not spend another minute in office. don't pass the funding, shutdown the government. I'd be for passing a bill that docks the pay of the House, Senate and President and cabinet during shutdowns too.

So this is a NAY vote from you, I hope?
You cannot reform ICE. The President is acting unlawfully with the aid of Republicans in Congress.
It’s time to start calling them out.

Hey I’m endorsing @mallorymcmorrow.bsky.social today for US Senate in Michigan. I’ve worked with her for years to keep our kids safe from gun violence. I’ve seen her fight up close - and it’s exactly what we need right now to take on Trump and his corporate allies.

I live in the Twin Cities. No, that's not the only change. I've never had coworkers kidnapped by masked thugs for being Latino before. I've never had friends, neighbors, and coworkers afraid to leave the house because of the color of their skin. This isn't more of the same.
