If Kamala were president today:
You'd be waking up reading about Grok and X being removed from app stores and investigated by the FTC and DOJ.

It's worth your time to call Hilton to cancel your account with them. 1-800-446-6677. Here's why:
They asked me if it was because of the ICE thing. I said it was. Then they suggested I wait a couple days to see if they were going to change course.
The pressure is getting to them. Let's keep it up.

It's obvious stuff, but we must remember that if Americans had elected Kamala Harris, none of this would be happening right now. Keep that in mind when you vote in the midterms.

Under Trump, our government only makes things worse for most Americans. #WhatIfDems? Make things better.
“Have government work to help not make things worse” seems like a winning 2026 message.
My appeal to the Median Voter would be "Life is hard enough already, we don't need a shitty government that makes it worse"

NEWS --> Reps Eric Swalwell and Dan Goldman are introducing a new bill to strip ICE officers of qualified immunity, making lawsuits and prosecutions easier. They also say agent who killed Renee Good should be prosecuted in Minnesota.

#WhatIfDems? Stop this. Stop using our tax dollars to pay the worst of us to kill innocent American bystanders.
You and your wife drop your 6-year-old off at school. You just moved here. You see ICE terrorizing your new neighbors. You film them, as is your legal right. Your wife complies with orders. She is then shot in the head. You still have to pick up your child later today.
This could be you.

Trump's government wants to "deport" one out of every three Americans, letting violent criminals free as they lock up our parents. #WhatIfDems? Our government leaves three out of three nonviolent Americans the hell alone.
The idea that we need to deport 100 million people - almost one out of every three Americans! - was, a year ago, a deranged claim you’d hear from neo-Nazis to give themselves permission for limitless mass violence. Now it’s coming directly from this horrific agency’s horrific press office

Today, hotels can just have a policy that denies services to people based on their local home address. #WhatIfDems? Fine the businesses who enforce this horrible policy to harm everyone just so they can specifically harm homeless people more.
A Hampton Inn in Asheville just canceled my family's reservation because our address (incorrectly) showed Asheville—and the hotel bars locals within 50 miles.
When I asked why, they said, "because of our homeless population," adding that most hotels here have similar policies.
This is outrageous.

#WhatIfDems? Reasonable regulation to limit dashboard touch screens and other stuff like this that makes everyone less safe. Give us back real buttons instead of a screen that's bricked when the car is in motion so that even our passengers can't use it.

Year 1 data on congestion pricing in Manhattan…
* Vehicle traffic: -11%
* Foot traffic: +3.4%
* Storefront vacancy: -0.9%
* Pollution: -22%
* Revenue for mass transit: $548M
So YES this has been a huge success.

Our tax dollars should go to these reasonable, helpful policies that make everyone safer and more prosperous. #WhatIfDems? Support this at the federal level.
Oregon has a rare program that helps people get jobs when they leave prison.
It's made a big difference.
But budget cuts are threatening to end the program, & lawmakers are failing to act to fix it. NEW, check it out: boltsmag.org/oregon-priso...

I explained to them the concept of third spaces, and how that's exactly what those kids need. Plus, these days, it's super difficult to find third spaces because almost all of them are either gone or monetised. So a neighbourhood third space for both kids and adults would be nice and is much needed.
