What an amazing feat. What a terrible indictment of the government that you had 25 hours worth of horrors to talk about.
How about everyone pledges to spend 25 hours this month campaigning or helping others.

Today, the House GOP censured me for speaking out for the American people against @POTUS’s plan to cut Medicaid. I accept the consequences of my actions, but I refuse to stay silent in the face of injustice. #WeShallOvercome x.com/repalgreen/s...

Might have been the only interesting part of Trump's SOTU address. And not in a good way.
Absolutely stunning. Trump to Chief Justice Roberts: "Thank you again. Thank you again. I won't forget."

Since Congress’s allotted funds have already been improperly unallocated, U.S. citizens are questioning whether they are legally required to continue paying federal taxes.

I imagine this is how the British felt when the implications of the Brexit vote began to hit them. Only much worse.

Maybe dem reps could hold their own state of the union on the Capitol steps. Steal the spotlight. Let members like AOC, Jasmine Crockett, Max Frost, and the DNC make remarks. Norms don't exist. Buck them.

Tired of reading "What do we do?" crap, and especially from "observers." Of course there's no panacea.
You pour sand in the gears. You pile up little victories. There's friction between here and flat-out dictatorship. You use it, magnify it, and use it again. Nothing elegant about it.

Calmes: It's a 'break-glass' moment in Washington, but then what?
Democrats are all but impotent; Republicans have capitulated; the media is fractured. There's only one bulwark left to counter the emergency unfolding in Washington

Call your Senators & Reps tomorrow morning, especially the GOP ones, & demand support for Ukraine. Every GOP official needs to be asked if they are behind Trump & believe we should ally with Putin over Zelensky.

Trump has removed the DOJ website responsible for tracking mass shootings.
You might want to ignore this endless cycle of violence, but the American people can’t.
