Since she's retiring, here's what you do. First, pay attention to who she or her backers endorse in the primary for her seat. Then, vote for the other guy.
Heads up people if you live in New Hampshire your senator voter yes and she’s up for re-election this time up. She needs a primary challenger and they need to walk her like a dog.

SCOOP: A group including Columbia alumni, professors & parents is trying to get students deported & arrested and urged people to tip off FBI. They’ve also disparaged Jewish protesters & tried to compile lists of JVP members. W/ @natashalennard.bsky.social theintercept.com/2025/02/15/c...
The Columbia Network Pushing Behind the Scenes to Deport and Arrest Student Protesters
For Columbia University alumni and faculty on a behind-the-scenes WhatsApp group, speaking out for Palestine or criticizing Israel is tantamount to backing Hamas.

I see some people aggrievedly asking "why aren't students protesting?"
Because you all made sure student protestors were doxxed, harassed on social media by their own professors, expelled, threatened with deportation, arrested and beaten by cops.
And even then, they're still out there.
Universities — including the schools that most aggressively shut down student activism — are now fully panicking because the Trump administration is about to shut down all kinds of funding for research and more. Too bad they made it clear that their students shouldn’t speak up and speak out.

“Will pay any amount.”

Feels like one of those futile pleas we’re going to hear from wealthy people more and more in the era of climate change.

The 10 richest people hold more wealth than the poorest 3 billion combined. Let that sink in: 3 billion people struggling while a handful hoard unimaginable fortunes. Inequality isn’t a flaw in the system; it is the system.

You're proud that this is your life's work, Gerald?
74-year-old congressman @GerryConnolly says of his victory over AOC to head watchdog committee: "I think there's a lot of nonsense, frankly, on the generational change...It had nothing to do with how old people were...she's [AOC] three terms; I am going to begin my ninth. I have a lot of experience"

Baristas on strike? Good. If Starbucks can charge $8 for a Venti Peppermint Mocha, they can afford to pay the people who make it more than pocket change.

While Trump and co meddle in Canada, Elon Musk is continuing his war on democracy in the UK. As the US continues to deteriorate politically from the recent Trump election "victory", the regressives are still in full swing against democracy worldwide.
