The Senate voted 50–46 tonight to block Trump’s tariffs on Canada, and yesterday it voted to block his tariffs on Brazil. Now we need the house to vote. Where’s the House? Is Johnson still guarding the Epstein files?

Rep.-elect Adelita Grijalva has now been waiting 36 days to be sworn in to office — setting a new record that any member of Congress has had to wait following a special election.

Pennsylvania has an important Supreme Court race coming up on Tuesday, November 4. If you live in the Keystone State, or know someone who does, vote YES to retain three justices who will protect your fundamental rights and freedoms.

I’m just saying, we haven’t seen Mike Johnson and Pierre Poilievre in the same soon at the same time…

People aren't as dumb as Republicans think. He's on an ego-tour of Asia, boycotting talks to end the shutdown, and cutting people off SNAP benefits even though there's $5B left in the contingency fund.

Crockett: You have a president who consistently is obsessing over two women of color that are members of the house, I don't know what black woman hurt him in his past, honey, but it is really taking him through it.

The GOP in Congress are worse than useless. They are craven enablers of murder.

Secretary Rollins’ claim that the Trump Administration is unable to deliver November SNAP benefits during a shutdown is unequivocally false. The Administration is legally required to use contingency reserves to fund benefits for the 1 in 8 Americans who need SNAP to afford their grocery bill.

He orders extrajudicial killings. He sent troops into our cities. He terrorizes citizens with ICE raids. He raised taxes without congressional approval. He has ruined American farmers and ranchers. He plans to starve the vulnerable. He demolished our house.

Remove him from office.

Americans still don't realize how bad it has gotten and how much worse it is going to get.

Immense destruction, pain and suffering, and we're not even at the tip of it.

If members of the United States military are truly being paid their salaries by a private individual, the American people should know who that individual is. Now.

To those that aren’t, when primary season comes we better have someone running against them in every race and every state.

AJ @ajgraves13.bsky.social · 4d

To the incumbents running: if you don’t display the biggest fight in your life, we as your constituents will put someone to primary you and get you out of office. That’s to ALL incumbents. Some US Senators and House members are doing this.

Highest ticketed candidates in the party/state: PUSH DOWN BALLOT VOTING. Get Gen Z involved heavily on socials. Make Millennials and Gen Z positions in your teams during and after campaigns. Display your fight to secure democracy in your communities and country.

AJ @ajgraves13.bsky.social · 4d

House candidates, non stop meeting people. Governor candidates talk about how you will be governor for all residents in your state and how you will help and PROTECT them and their rights. Local candidates: keep railing community togetherness.

AJ @ajgraves13.bsky.social · 4d

We better see a democrat running in EVERY RACE. House. Senate. Local. Governor. EVERYTHING. And that same Democrat needs to be working their ass off talking to as many people as they can during the campaign. U.S. senate candidates: target the highest voter turnout in cities in your state.
