Keep contacting your US Senators and Representatives! Even if you live in a red state/district. They keep tallies of how many constituents tell them to favor or oppose legislation.

Rs count on Ds thinking it’s pointless to call, then point to the tallies as evidence of no constituent opposition.

Q: Have you asked the DOJ to look at possible charges against Pritzker and Johnson?

TRUMP: I've seen the law ... I've understood that and I read it today in numerous journals that that's illegal ... that's a criminal offense

This is Clio. She did not study for the test today. Also does not know how to read. 12/10 (IG: paspastotoro)

a black and gray long-haired yorkiepoo sits at a desk in a university classroom. a piece of paper lays on the desk in front of her, her paws propped up on the desk as if she's bracing herself. there are students in the background hunched over and working on paper in front of them. the pup looks at the camera with a concerned side eye. she's realizing she probably should have read some of the homework before eating it.

The Speaker of the House has firm views that Bad Bunny is a terrible pick for singing at the Super Bowl, but hasn't had time to watch the President's speech to our military leadership or form an opinion whether furloughed federal workers should be paid or Illinois' governor should be thrown in jail.

“It's not clear many Democrats understand this.
Some Democrats have confided to reporters that they see this topic as a "trap" enticing them into a losing debate about crime. But why assume voters will automatically believe Trump's occupations are actually about combating crime? This throws in the towel, right up front, on communicating to voters what this debate is really about: that Trump's abuses should be utterly abhorrent to anyone who values living in a free society.
Do Democrats, broadly speaking, have a theory of this moment that's consciously matched to MAGA's authoritarian politics? They need one.
Because guess who does have a theory of the moment? Miller does. And he's amassing unprecedented power to put it into practice as we speak.”

JB Pritzker and Gavin Newsom are doing something new and important: They understand Stephen Miller's theory of fascist power politics, and they've developed a theory on how to combat it. More Dems need to reckon with Miller's understanding of the moment.

Inside Stephen Miller’s Secret Plan to Normalize Trump’s Dictator Rule

He wants to supercharge searing civil tensions to get low-information voters to embrace their inner authoritarian. Exactly two Democrats appear to fully grasp this.

The Republican president just called for the mayor of Chicago and the governor of Illinois to be JAILED and you’re talking about bipartisanship? With fascists??? Did you and Chuck Schumer just swap comms teams or something?

More Democrats need to follow JB Pritzker's lead and directly confront MAGA's ongoing campaign to crush our democracy. It's not a time for any Democratic politician to hide in their office making fundraising calls. Get your ass out there. Denounce the fascists. Be loud.

I will not back down.

Trump is now calling for the arrest of elected representatives checking his power.

What else is left on the path to full-blown authoritarianism?
