Every major Dem politician needs to realize that, in this environment, they can schedule a "speech to the nation," like Newsom did, and get tons of media coverage. Just do it.

You can't call immigrants lazy moochers looking for government handouts and then round them up at Home Depots where you know they are looking for work. You can't say immigrants don't follow the rules and then round them up in courthouses where they are following the rules. Get your lies straight.

Senate Republicans are finalizing a scaled-down plan to force some federal food aid costs to states as a way to pay for Trump’s megabill. They’re concerned red states particularly would be hit with billions of dollars in new costs for SNAP, which helps feed more than 40 million low-income Americans.

The Senate plan would ask states to pay for SNAP costs at a lower rate than the House plan — and exempt some states entirely.

Federal work shaped a Black middle class. Now it's destabilized by Trump's job cuts
For generations of Black workers, federal government jobs have provided a path into the middle class. The Trump administration's workforce cuts are now throwing that sense of stability up in the air.

JD Vance wouldn’t last a minute under bombardment in Ukraine.
A tweet from John Pavlovitz directed at J.D. Vance, sarcastically referring to a video of an "attack" on Vance's family. The tweet mocks the severity of the alleged attack, implying it was not serious by stating, "Those grandmothers sure must have been traumatizing," followed by accusations, calling Vance a "lying fraudulent coward."

Take inspiration from it.

the first fatal commercial plane crash in 16 years happened just days after Trump froze hiring of air traffic controllers that were already stretched thin
TRUMP'S DANGEROUS
FREEZE OF AIR
TRAFFIC CONTROL
HIRING
Washington, D.C. — Today, Ranking Member of the House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure Rick Larsen (D-WA) and Ranking Member of the Subcommittee on Aviation Steve Cohen (D-TN) released the following statements after President Trump froze the hiring of Air Traffic Controllers, among other safety-critical positions.
"The bipartisan FAA Reauthorization Act of 2024 directs the Administration to hire the maximum number of air traffic controllers. That's what the law says, so the Administration must rescind this ridiculous executive order," Ranking Member Larsen said. "Hiring air traffic controllers is the number one safety issue according to the entire aviation industry. Instead of working to improve aviation safety and lower costs for hardworking American families, the Administration is choosing to spread bogus DEl claims to justify this decision. I'm not surprised by the President's dangerous and divisive actions, but the Administration must reverse course. Let's get back to aviation safety and allow the FAA to do its job protecting the flying public."
"Our top priority must be the safety of the flying public so an order freezing the hiring of air traffic controllers is a misguided decision and goes against the directives of our
FAA Reauthorization bill," Ranking Member Cohen said. "The aviation community will speak with one voice in condemning this short-sighted policy and reaffirm our
