This is really good. Temperament-wise it’s ‘calm,’ while being blunt at the same time about what these times need.

@marcelias.bsky.social Want you to know I cajoled a friend (a union activist when we were teachers, but bc of those battle scars, has since refused any political participation) to subscribe & donate to @democracydocket.com He admires you greatly & I told him he couldn’t keep sitting on his hands.💪🏼 😊

Was dumbfounded by this last night. Expected him to take the 8 senators to the mat & he did the opposite. Felt condescending -telling me I don’t understand how Senate works behind closed doors& what a deal the 5 Senators got (reinstatement of folks who shouldn’t have been fired in the 1st place etc)

Tonight’s Senate vote on the federal government shutdown should have been a time for strength. Instead we saw capitulation and a betrayal of working Americans. The American people need more from their leaders.

So, um, we don’t need the legislation. The Constitution is pretty clear about this. The remedies are clear. And short of those, how about standing firm on no budget ok until Trump/GOP agree to…adhere to the Constitution. Or, perhaps, just approve extension a month at a time…if he complies.

Our tax code is rigged. It’s not fair that a billionaire can pay a lower tax rate than a public school teacher.
Graphic that reads: 
The Tax Code is Rigged

Working families pay an effective tax rate that is 4x higher than the average billionaire’s.
The biggest source of income for the ultra-rich—the increase in value of investments they don’t sell—is never taxed at all.
Trump’s “big, beautiful bill” made things even worse, giving trillions in tax breaks to corporations, billionaires, and millionaires.

It’s not fair that a billionaire can pay a lower tax rate than a public school teacher.

This shows just how little we value women as a society that so many fellow Americans can overlook this aspect of his character for their own self serving reasons. Too many women don’t even value themselves enough to say Enough. So much misogyny- it’s depressing.

Trump’s favorability is lowest of his second term—just 37% What’s sad is that Democratic Party favorability is yet lower—28% Gloat all you want at Trump’s collapse, but Dem leadership better start listening to its voter base instead of to corporate donors and foreign lobbies, or they’ll lose again

Dear New York Times, Please stop referring to Jeffrey Epstein’s underage victims as “young women.” Try “children.” Or if you must, “teenage girls.” They weren’t just “on the younger side,” as Trump once said. They were children.

Internal documents revealed that Trump and Musk have been LYING about Social Security fraud. So I sounded the alarm about DOGE slowing down Americans' benefits based on those lies—and they backtracked. We're not letting DOGE get away with messing with Americans benefits.

Physical buttons are finally coming back to cars. 🤌 It’s not just an aesthetic choice, though—it’s a safety-conscious one. Research shows that reaction times using screens while driving are worse than being drunk or high.

@nicollewallace.bsky.social your guest right now is wrong - she suggested using the word “palace” to describe DT insulating himself from the outside world. WE SHOULD NEVER DO THAT - he would love any inference that he’s a king. NEVER be complicit in his narrative. NEVER.

@schumer.senate.gov We need a fighter & it’s not you. Follow MLK’s Letter from a Birmingham Jail: you need to create tension in order to get to negotiations. You’re not standing up for the People. Step down. We need a champion, someone w/ courage right now & it’s not you. So sad & disappointing.

I called again today. Remind them of MLK’s Letter from a Birmingham Jail where he replies to folks asking him not to protest but to negotiate: change doesn’t come from a place of comfort - you have to create tension to get folks to the negotiating table. So, Democrats, create tension. Vote NO
