...with the help of California state workers, who you are AGGRESSIVELY fighting AGAINST getting any increase in wages while also ending telework #unions @seiu1000.bsky.social #progressive #progressives #democrats #voteblue #bluewave #blacklivesmatter #leftist #democraticsocialist #feelthebern

@briantylercohen.bsky.social We really need a pro-worker candidate after almost a decade of the middle class taking hits. We need someone who will stand up against AI and for a populace that has been pummeled and remained so strong in the face of fascism. We need help.

@briantylercohen.bsky.social Hey Brian, I am a longtime subscriber and fan. I'm also a state employee in California and I notice you interview Gavin Newsom quite a bit. I am humbly asking you to push him on some of his anti-worker and anti-union policies, especially telework. 🙏

I will obviously still be voting for Democrats but...damn. This hit me hard. Why waste all this time and cause so much pain without knowing damn well u had the support? @schumer.senate.gov - I'll be supporting Independent liberals from now on

@adamschiff.com @schumer.senate.gov Hopefully when my 3 year old is an adult, she will at least get to see a Democratic Party with some spine. So far, she hasn't.

@democrats.senate.gov uhhh... wtf are you guys doing? U do realize if u give up now, right after the election, ur basically handling the GOP their own talking point, that this was purely political, which means Dems will incur the wrath of ppl hurt by the shutdown, right?

Brendan Quinn @bequinn.bsky.social · 06/11/2025

@bera.house.gov @schumer.senate.gov @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social If you really want to know why the Dems lost to Trump again, it's because Dems are widely regarded as being 'fake'. Yall have done a lot to start chipping away at that impression but I gotta say, if you guys cave on ACA subsidies...

Brendan Quinn @bequinn.bsky.social · 06/11/2025

@bera.house.gov Was at your town hall call last week and was very glad to hear your commitment to seeing thru the shutdown until GOP caves on the ACA. Voters did their part last night now we need u guys to keep doing your part. Prove this shutdown wasn't a performance! No caving!

@lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com @maddow.msnbc.com Can you explain to me why MSNBC, one of the last vestiges of truth on cable news is not showing more of these ICE arrest videos from Chicago? I just watched a child... a CHILD... tackled to the ground by an ICE agent after they nearly drove into him

Brendan Quinn @bequinn.bsky.social · 05/10/2025

@hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social If you and the Republicans are to go back to the table, please shift focus from healthcare to imposing new restrictions on these ICE raids. The videos we are seeing are CLEARLY illegal behavior by law enforcement but at bare minimum, ICE should be defunded

000

Brendan Quinn @bequinn.bsky.social · 05/10/2025

@bera.house.gov Rep. Bera, after what we are seeing from these raids by ICE, as one of your constituents living in Fair Oaks, I am BEGGING you to please change tact right now and urge leader Jeffries to instead shift focus on reopening the gov't to defunding ICE or passing some kind of LE reform

California citizens: please support state public servants. Gov. Newsom is following the DOGE playbook, imposing RTO mandates and cutting state worker pay. This is anti-union and anti-democratic. Please let him know our party and our state won't stand for this: www.gov.ca.gov/contact/

@vanhollen.senate.gov while our country put him in this situation to begin with and thus, ‘proud’ is not the right word, for the first time in a long time i actually felt a pang of patriotism seeing that picture today. Thank you for that.

It feels like things are happening so fast and there are a million great ideas on how to fight back but we need to slow down and coallesce. We need to think like a military. Leadership. Strategy. Training. Execution. Great article: newrepublic.com/article/1924...

Note to the Resistance: Protest Takes Planning. Learn From Dr. King.

The protesters of the civil rights movement didn’t just show up. They planned for every eventuality. It’s a lesson that’s starkly relevant today.

Well thats it… the Dems obeyed in advance. We truly are on our own.

Brendan Quinn @bequinn.bsky.social · 13/03/2025

He also just rescinded telework for state workers. And he did it in the same haphazard, poorly thought out way Trump did for fed workers. MAGA must have slipped something into his pomade

Brendan Quinn @bequinn.bsky.social · 13/03/2025

@andyrichter.co Awesome to see u on Bluesky man! Fwiw, I still play Andy Barker PI episodes for a smile when im feeling down. Maybe RFK Jr can finally take down those nefarious chicken cartels!

Brendan Quinn @bequinn.bsky.social · 13/03/2025

@schumer.senate.gov Thank you for standing up for us and making a statement that the actions Trump admin is taking are illegal and thus do not deserve to be funded. Whether this gives them a chance to fire fed workers is a false argument because… they already are firing fed workers

Brendan Quinn @bequinn.bsky.social · 12/03/2025

@bera.house.gov I am really proud of my rep tonight, thank you for doing your part and pushing back on these fanatics and liars. We appreciate you and hope our Dem senators do the same!

Brendan Quinn @bequinn.bsky.social · 11/03/2025

@schumer.senate.gov Respectfully, Senator, you need to get control of your minority. Filibuster this bill to death or the Democrat Party has lost my vote. If you cant stand your people up and fight, we dont deserve the majority ever again.

010

Brendan Quinn @bequinn.bsky.social · 11/03/2025

@bera.house.gov I gave voted for you since 2014. If you vote for the GOP spending bill, I will not only never vote for you again, I will donate and campaign for anyone who runs against you.

Brendan Quinn @bequinn.bsky.social · 11/03/2025

@lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com Glad to have u here, just want to say i always look forward to your soliloquies, its how i round out my day before beginning my writing for the night. Always puts a smile on my face. I mean, its all bad news but your POV always brings some order to the chaos out there.

@bera.house.gov As one of your constituents, I cannot overstate how disappointed I am with your actions lately which are enabling fascism. I will be voting against you at the next opportunity. @algreen.house.gov was right. There can be no decorum with MAGA. We cant accept weak reps anymore.

000

Brendan Quinn @bequinn.bsky.social · 05/03/2025

Yes, or they should have forced them to kick every Democrat out. Why are they playing it so safe??!? What Dems can and cant do politically doesnt matter, its about showing strength.

Brendan Quinn @bequinn.bsky.social · 03/03/2025

There is one thing that separates humans from other animals and that is our spiritual reverence for fellow humans who have died. Primitive funeral rites were the first glimmers of religion among our ancestors. So if people dying because Medicaid gets cut DOESN’T bother you, you are not human.

I just saw an ad for one of those shady ozempic prescribers and they were touting grocery bill savings as a benefit of the drug. We are screwed.

Ever the optimist, I will say that dealing w Trump for Zelensky was always going to be a giant pain in the ass at every point, we really havent contributed more than Europe anyway and all Trump’s tantrum did was garner Zelensky even more support. Further death in Ukraine has Trumps stink all over it

Wow @pamhemphill53.bsky.social proves how you can literally become a f-ing hero with just a bit of humility and self-awareness and yet how sad it is so few are unable to follow her lead.

Regarding Andrew Cuomo… guys, i think this may be the hypocrisy that is constantly repelling voters. You lose the ability to criticize someone else for their behavior when you support a democrat doing the same thing. @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social
