To Liberals saying Cory Booker did something this week, I ask what did he do? what did he accomplish? Did he stop a bill? Did he bring the deported back?

You all give too much credit where barely any is due. He literally helped confirm the Presidents current Secretary of State.

This was performative, and unproductive, IE "good trouble". I want our politicians to make real trouble as the opposition!

The #Senate approved a measure to block some of the #tariffs #Trump has imposed on #Canada, w/a handful of #Republicans joining #Democrats to…halt levies set to take effect this week.

The measure is all but certain to stall in the #House, where #GOP leaders moved preemptively to shut down any attempt to end Trump’s tariffs. But Senate passage on a vote of 51 to 48—hours after Trump unveiled sweeping tariffs on >100 trading partners…, sent a signal of #bipartisan opposition to Trump’s #TradeWar.

Corey Booker sets a record for senate speech, trouncing the racist Strom Thurmond. As we fight back against the equally racist administration of Trump, Musk, and Vance, what are our wins? Democrats are up to a lot - and this is just PART 1.

Senator SchiffSTATEMENT: Sen. Schiff Announces Hold on D.C. U.S. Attorney Nominee Ed Martin Today, Senator Adam Schiff (D-Calif.), a member of the Senate Judiciary Committee, announced he would be placing a hold on the nomination of Edward Martin to be U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia, citing Mr. Martin’s troubling conduct in his months as Interim U.S. Attorney in the same role. 

Every single time a Republican has been President during my lifetime (since the late 1970's), my goals and dreams have had to be set aside to deal with the reality that they are a bunch of greedy idiots who want money and power.

I realize I say this from a place of privilege as a middle aged white guy. But I struggle too.

Let's come together and become #Independent. Let's get a political platform together and start a new party. Ally with #Democrats and show them that moving to the liberal left and having progressive planks will build a foundation for a stronger, more resilient #democracy. One that will survive #facism and #Trump

Let's have a real #Liberation Day.

I'm interested to hear what you think. Please boost and reply!

From our magazine: “The Laken Riley bill, that’s been talked about by the media and everybody as an immigration bill, but it’s a criminal justice bill. And they’ve punctured the due process in criminal cases. They’re basically saying that as long as [immigrants are] charged … not even that they’ve been convicted or that they’re on trial, [that they’ll be deported].” texasobserver.org/sylvia-garci
