Ok, wtaf @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social @schumer.senate.gov? It's time to give Newsom and Pritzker the keys to the fucking car.
Donald Trump is waging a fascist takeover of the United States.

Democrats are responding the only way they know how: by heeding the advice of the wonks who helped get them into this situation — and whose advice is to avoid discussing what Trump is doing.

More of this!
Rep. Robert Garcia: "We should not be scared of what's in those files. We don't care who you are, how powerful you are, if you're in politics, what party you are, the amount of money you have — if you've committed these horrific crimes, it should be out to the American public."
