Blaming the left for Trump's weaponization of law enforcement means pretending his first term didn't happen

Sean Duffy is a 🤡. It’s time for California to stop subsidizing red states and #secede. California is a donor state… we don’t need to continue that generosity if the rest of this country has lost its moral compass and its rational mind.

Guys, it's the oligarchs. If you want to blame someone for 2024, blame the oligarchs. Anyone telling you to blame someone else is part of the oligarchy. Dark money has been to blame since citizens united.

Today is the anniversary of the horrific Uvalde school shooting that took the lives of 21 people, 19 of whom were kids.
After Uvalde, Dems passed the 1st gun safety legislation in 30 years, though much more needs to be done.
The GOP is trying to roll it back—choosing the gun lobby over our kids.

We will not win the battle for democracy if those in the pro-democracy movement prize caution over taking risks. We cannot permit ourselves to be deterred by the defeats and public criticism that are inevitable along the long path of restoring democracy. Now is the time for fearless leadership.
The Survival of Democracy Depends on Our Willingness to Fight
Justice Riggs is right. We should not have to fight for democracy. But the reality is that we must.
