It's midnight in Washington, and in case you're catching up...

So far tonight, Republicans have blocked amendments that would:

– Remove tariffs hurting families
– Protect disaster response and recovery
- Secure Social Security benefits
- Preserve federal lands

I am frustrated. Dems would have done better to skip the address entirely and schedule town halls in vulnerable Republican districts where the representatives and senators refuse to meet. Other Dems could have organized a protest in another part of the city during the
speech. Why is this so hard?

I sincerely hope that the Dem plan for the State of the Union address isn’t going to be “sit on your hands and when they go low…” Honestly I hope they don’t attend at all.

Crockett: "If feels as if y'all have just decided that y'all are gonna castrate your constitutional duty & hand it over to someone who was unelected. It doesn't matter how many cheerleaders he had on the field campaigning for him. That doesn't mean he gets to go in and sit atop any of our agencies"

Meanwhile, who is in the lead to chair the DNC? Out of the top 4 Wilker, Martin, Skoufis and O’Malley. @democracydocket.com has a good article on this, but left out James Skoufis of NY. People need to focus on this and let the leadership know who they want! Elections are February 1.

If you are appalled by what you are reading about the kidnapping and theft of Americans and migrants try 5 Calls. Because it isn’t enough to be outraged anymore.

Working with the system we have, do you know who is running to chair the DNC? This is more important than what executive orders the “president” is signing right now. Candidates Wilker, Martin, Skoufis, and O’Malley. Election Feb. 1
