Your elected officials aren’t doing enough to prevent an obvious catastrophe. Impeach. Convict. Remove. Now. The Dem-consultant-led strategy of “no impeachments” is continuing to bring unneeded suffering. It will certainly get worse. Call Dems and see if you like what you hear: 202-224-3121

How many more years do we want to waste watching soft careerists struggle to meet the moment? Where’s the MAGA Accountability action plan? It doesn’t seem like coasting on anti-maga vibes alone is really cutting it. People want consequences for destroying USAID and our government.
Dems can’t fundraise

Some of us have been asking our elected representatives for an action plan if/when they return to power for over eighteen months. But they’ve been so very busy…too busy to commit to any specific plan to actually use power in either majority/supermajority scenarios. So busy. @quigley.house.gov

Trumpism will continue until Dems sitting in safe blue districts start showing up at work and impeaching every member of this administration. Instead, Dems send fundraising texts. Your rep should know that you’re angry: 202-224-3121

“We half-heartedly tried impeachment twice six years ago and it didn’t work, so it’s off the table forever, including for all cabinet members” is such a weak excuse for one’s own unaddressed conflict avoidance issues. These people are pushovers. Impeachments should be a weekly occurrence.

Lots of tough talk for the cameras. Where is your MAGA accountability plan for when Dems retake power? You speak of honoring service members, and then implore your colleagues not to impeach anyone in this administration. How does that honor anyone? You aren’t the right person for this job.

Like someone like Tammy Duckworth is safe as hell. She’s a blue Dem in a safely blue seat. And yet she’s out here saying “don’t try to remove the fascist racist from office, maybe he’ll see the light now.” What message does that send people other than “just give up?”

The next two years need to be accountability warfare against this administration, laying the rhetorical groundwork for the counterrevolution in 2029, and secure whatever legislative wins possible now (i.e., enhanced ACA subsidies) in the interim.

This year when I was running for Congress, I argued that if 2026 was massive for Democrats, it might force congressional Republicans to the table on re-institution of ACA enhanced subsidies or clawing back Medicaid cuts. I can't imagine they get on board for anything major though.

DoorDash has ripped off more than 260,000 NYC delivery workers. We’re making them pay $131.5 million — the largest worker settlement in City history. This is New York, where hard work pays and greed will cost you.
DoorDash messed up.
They repeatedly left more than 260,000 NYC delivery workers underpaid or paid late, causing them immense stress and financial difficulty.
That's unacceptable.
We've secured a $131.5M settlement from
DoorDash - the largest worker settlement in NYC history and largest delivery worker settlement in
American municipal history.
Every worker will be paid what they are owed, and every company will be forced to abide by the laws of this city.
