Since this regime was sworn in, people have talked about building community, this is where that would come to play.

Was anyone else on the Town Hall call with Tom Emmer? What are your thoughts about it?

I heard you are doing Town Halls in districts represented by republicans. Is it true? When are you coming to CD 6? Tom Emmer has been very unresponsive to his constituents. We would love to see you!

Dear @smith.senate.gov and @amyklobuchar.com

Your base is pretty clear.

Please don’t go along with Leader Schumer’s fakeout.

No to cloture.

No to the CR.

No to collaboration with a coup.

A federal judge in Washington, D.C., ruled that DOGE is subject to government transparency laws, allowing the public to access government records—a legal defeat for the White House, which had designated DOGE as an office exempt from open records laws.

The sooner we collectively realize that Elon Musk is a shitposting, conspiracy-addled fool, who needs to stay out of public policy not upend it, the safer we’ll all be.

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general.

If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

I went to my first protest today at Tom Emmer's Otsego, MN office. There was about 50 people protesting. We will be there every Tuesday from 4:30 to 5 pm and every Saturday from 11 am to noon.

What are you doing about the national security risk known as Elon Musk? Could you clarify what safeguards are in place to prevent undue influence from private individuals over such crucial financial and governmental systems?

It’s the job of every congressional democrat to grind the gears of government to a stop.

Right now. Block everything. Slow walk every committee. Call every vote. Filibuster every post office name change.

State Dems need to build parallel institutions to protect the people at home. GET TO WORK.

I know it’s not everything, but it’s something: how each of us, in our little spheres of work & community, can help foster & sustain places of care, decency, & intelligence even when powerful people celebrate venal, coarse, mendacious practices. What a gift, to be able to do something so worthwhile
