Stephen Miller called the victim, an ICU nurse at the VA filming ICE, a “domestic terrorist who tried to assassinate federal law enforcement.” Greg Bovino said he “wanted to massacre law enforcement.” You saw the videos. How can any Republican not call for their resignations?

Yes, the GOP controls Congress. That's why it's key to show Congress COULD stop the madness. And it's not just the DHS bill. Congress could repeal the prior multi-year $75b for DHS; set up a special investigative committee (cf. Watergate); amend the Insurrection Act; etc.

Good. Now please ask all Democratic senators to delete their X accounts and stop supporting a site that enables the creation and distribution of non-consensual sexual imagery of both adults and children. You must lead by example, @judiciarydems.senate.gov.

In case anybody on Capitol Hill is wondering, the mood right now out here in the hinterlands is for Democrats not to miss votes. Especially since so many Republicans are out that Dems could pretty much stop anything with full attendance. We are paying attention.

Congress should pass a law requiring agents to show their faces, identify themselves, & wear their badges. It’s not agent safety we have to worry about these days. End so-called Kavanaugh stops & admin warrant-based forced entry into homes too. Let’s have a Constitution.

Trump is urging SCOTUS to let him fire three Democrat-appointed members of the Consumer Product Safety Commission. The CPSC regulates safety of everyday consumer products. Guess who recently sued the agency and claimed that it's "unconstitutional"? Amazon. Connect the dots.

House Republicans have passed the most regressive legislation in recent memory, which will cut more than $1 trillion from Medicaid and boot some 12 million Americans off their health insurance, even as it explodes the federal deficit—all to extend and expand tax cuts that favor the rich.

There’s a mass shooting and Trump says to get over it. The GOP strips away Medicaid and McConnell says we’ll get over it. You know what? We won’t get over it. It took 43 years to get an apology for what they did to the Japanese American community. But we got one. We will persist. Count on it.
