One of the best things I’ve read in a while:

ashleysmace.bsky.social @ashleysmace.bsky.social · 20/01/2026

I used to watch CNN pretty exclusively for news but because of their complete capitulation to Trump and the fact that they continue to employ Jennings, I haven't watched in over a year. They have destroyed their reputation for the sake of clicks and soundbites

I hate guns but I'm glad the Black Panthers are standing up for their communities and cities since the police and elected politicians won't

When the history of this era is written, there will be much to say about the behavior of large corporations. And none of it will be good As the Trump admin has ramped up its assault on American democracy, many corporations have chosen to look the other way or to curry favor with the president

When even Ben & Jerry’s can’t speak out, it’s clear: the era of corporate responsibility is over | Austin Sarat

Jerry himself has left the ice-cream company, alleging it had been silenced. He’s yet another casualty of corporate kowtowing

#SuzanneCollins has outdone herself with "Sunrise on the Reaping". The book is flawless and brings the Hunger Games series back into the forefront. Given our fasting moving slide into autocracy, this series is an excellent reminder of the cost of fascism #hungergames #sotr #sunriseonthereaping

FDR once bragged to a massive crowd at Madison Square Garden that the richest people in the nation hated him and “I welcome their hatred.” Just weeks later, he was re-elected with 61% of the vote in a 523-8 blowout in the Electoral College. Voters *like* politicians who make the right enemies.

@schiff.senate.gov @padilla.senate.gov If Schumer votes for cloture and you do not immediately call for his resignation for betraying the ideals of the Democratic Party, I will not ever vote for either of you again, and will use every avenue in my power to make sure you are not re-elected.

Thankful so many of our Maryland reps were there to protest. We were already in a budget crunch before DOGE started firing thousands of federal workers here in the state. Things are about to get really ugly here but they must not capitulate and roll over. We must fight back! 💙🦀💙

The press bears an equal amount of responsibility for the position we find ourselves in. They normalized Trump so they could make more $ and served up our democracy in the process. They failed us

That's not fair to my Eagles who have fought hard and stood up to Trump before. When we won the Superbowl in 2018, they refused to go to the WH and Donnie was NOT happy. He hates Philly and we hate him back. I really hope they win this game even more now because it would really piss him off 💚🦅💚

Received a letter from POTUS today purporting to remove me as Commissioner and Chair of the FEC. There's a legal way to replace FEC commissioners-this isn't it. I've been so fortunate to serve the American people and stir up some good trouble along the way. That's not changing anytime soon.

Indivisible is urging people to visit their senators' local offices between now and Thursday to demand that they use every tool—including denying a quorum and blocking unanimous consent—to fight the confirmation of Project 2025 architect Russell Vought for head of OMB docs.google.com/document/d/1...

THE ASK
This week, between Monday and the vote on Vought, we're asking people from all over the country to plan a visit to Senate State Offices to demand Democrats fight and to hold Republicans accountable for their complicity.
DEMOCRATS MUST USE EVERY PROCEDURAL TOOL TO SHUT DOWN
TRUMP'S AGENDA
Yes, we need Democrats to vote no on Vought's nomination, but no is not enough. Democrats have the power to grind Senate business to a halt and force Republicans to feel the political cost of backing Trump's extremist agenda. Here's how:
1. Deny a Quorum: If Republicans don't have 51 votes in the chamber, Democrats can walk out and shut down Senate business entirely.
2. Block Unanimous Consent: Object to every procedural shortcut, forcing Republicans to take the longest possible route for every step of the confirmation process.
3. Max Out Debate Time: Use all 30 hours of debate on Vought to expose Project 2025, Musk's Treasury takeover, and the funding freeze.
4. Delay and Disrupt: Force roll-call votes, quorum calls, and procedural delays to slow everything down.
5. Blanket Opposition: Democrats cannot continue to vote for Trump's other nominees, helping to install more MAGA loyalists into powerful positions in the federal government while this power grab continues.
No Business as Usual: This is a constitutional crisis. Democrats must abandon the old rules and fight with everything they have.
Bottom line: Senate Democrats must block, delay, and obstruct every step of this process-no cooperation, no easy votes, no fast-tracking Trump's takeover. To learn more about how Senate Democrats can shut down Trump's agenda with procedural hardball, check out our explainer here.

You know we have a two party system right? You can't pass anything without bipartisanship and the GOP refused to work across the aisle because they were too busy licking Trump's boots
