folks can complain about the effectiveness of scheduled orderly mass protest but to think about it another way its the closest thing we have to the opening scene of A Muppet Christmas Carol where all the muppets sing "there goes Mr. Dipshit, there goes Mr. Ass" to Scrooge and it clearly bothered him

The government is in full shutdown and the Republicans are refusing to call the House back into session.
Want to know why?
Because we have secured the final vote on releasing the Epstein Files and they don’t want it out.
Call GOP and tell them to swear in @adelitaforcongress.bsky.social.

Much as I would not dare to predict the consequences of this war, I do think we can summarize it thusly so far:
A smart and evil man manipulated a stupid and evil man into a war against a fanatical and evil regime.

My wife and I had a Hindu wedding ceremony in her parents backyard and the HOA bitched about it and fined them. Over the years my FIL has built up an Indian voting bloc and now they control the whole thing and he walks around the development like this telling white people to mow their fucking lawn

The default Dem position should be that nothing under Trump is valid.
Trump didn't honor his predecessors' agreements. He didn't even honor his own trade agreements. He didn't honor Congressional appropriations. He doesn't follow laws.
Clean slate. If you rely on him, your loss.

Fully on board with dems running for office promising to reinstate fired federal employees and jail this administration’s various criminals, but let’s go ahead and add “we will seize by eminent domain any national parkland sold to developers”
