This is one of my favorite pictures from the protest on Maui today. The turnout was amazing, at least 4,200 and some are saying closer to 5,000.

2,000 were federalized. 12,000-13,000 were not federalized. Newsom needs to sue the federal government for a violation of 10 USC, the insurrection act, and violations of the 10th Amendment.

E xactly. I lived in Northwest Indiana for a while and even I know that IL doesn’t declare party affiliation. The source would be helpful: this isn’t a screenshot of VoteBuilder.

@petebuttigieg.bsky.social can talk about how obvious and predictable Trump’s address to Congress will be; criticize Trump’s intelligence and abilities to handle the complexity of international relations at the same time as domestic policy.

Change the order of agenda: provide criticism before, not a Dem response after. It should be a public criticism that attacks him where he is weakest: Gaza, Ukraine, Russia, Fed Job firings, Economy, Inflation, funding freeze, freeing criminals. @petebuttigieg.bsky.social is the one who does this.

Whatever else emerges in time about the Delta crash in Canada, one thing is certain: the importance & amazing professionalism of flight attendants who safely evacuated the plane in a matter of seconds.

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general. If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

“Please do more” and “you’re not doing enough” are critiques and expectations that seem fairly reasonable given the starting point we are experiencing with the Trump administration that is quite literally doing everything they want, legal or not.

There are distinctions to be made between attacking and setting expectations. @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social and other Democratic Party leadership are “pissed” about activists. There has always been a divide between Democratic activists & Democratic stalwarts. Why get pissed now?

I’ve followed your work for almost 20 years now and have met you at various political conferences. Your reputation for Dem loyalty is apparent. As a fellow long-time Democratic Party member, regular campaign volunteer, & delegate, we absolutely can and should expect more - vocally.

happy first birthday to Bluesky, and what a year it's been! with every day, the need for an open network that puts people first becomes increasingly clear. we're glad to be building this with you. after all, the heart of a social network is the people.
Popular meme format, grandma labeled with "bluesky's public launch was one year ago today." Younger person helping her labeled with "sure grandma let's get you to bed."

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.

Not too long ago, Elon was doxing government employees on X. Where was the outcry of “You’re breaking the law” then? These employees feared for their families’ safety.

The USAID systems Elon Musk's DOGE team tried to access included personnel files and security systems — including on classified systems beyond the security level of some of the DOGE employees. The systems also included security clearance info for agency employees. www.nbcnews.com/politics/nat...

I am thinking intentional misconduct by a federal employee under the FTCA. But I’m no expert. I know that if this was a private company, I could sue them if something like this happened.

Question for someone who knows a lot more about federal lawsuits than I do. Maybe someone can offer an answer to this question. Can’t regular citizens sue the DOGE for illegally accessing our PII? Maybe @elienyc.bsky.social you know if we could do that?

Please link the source doc. Also, language matters. The OMB attempted to impound half the federal budget - it isn’t a “funding freeze”, they aren’t authorized to make these kinds of moves.
