Our local Starbucks barista had a nice message today. Be kind! #williamsburg.
This is your “friend across the aisle” @kaine.senate.gov and @markwarner.bsky.social and @schumer.senate.gov
Hawley ended up getting so aggressive toward Ellison, including calling for his arrest, that even Rand Paul asked him to tone it down

see? saying this is not so hard
I will not support any funding deal that puts money in the hands of Stephen Miller, Kristi Noem, and this violent agency. Defund and abolish ICE now.

The Obamas are brilliant, compassionate and patriotic Americans. They represent the best of this country.
Donald Trump is a vile, unhinged and malignant bottom feeder.
Why are GOP leaders like John Thune continuing to stand by him?
Republicans must immediately denounce Trump’s disgusting bigotry.

I'm so glad Rep Casten is in Congress.
If you want to FINALLY watch Scott Bessent get pinned down on specifics about the illegal money laundering operation being conducted by the Trump admin from someone who knows WTF he’s talking about, this clip is your chance. Bessent gets destroyed.

Are you listening @markwarner.bsky.social and @kaine.senate.gov? Frankly I don’t think you give a damn.
The US is collapsing into fascism and going to war with Europe and the opposition party is like “I’m here to talk about the important thing: how your average grocery bill has risen by two dollars over the last year, which I also have no plan or ability to fix”

Still waiting @markwarner.bsky.social. Why haven't you moved to remove @schumer.senate.gov? He's the minority leader who couldn't stop this from happening. Also #VanceKnew

Hey @markwarner.bsky.social lets kick @kaine.senate.gov out! He voted "yes" and you voted "no" which means he's out of the mainstream. Let's get him to resign so @abigailspanberger.com can put somebody in his place! @gomichaelrhodes.bsky.social

So true. Think about this when they send you another “we need your donations to fight” texts and emails. WE ARE A FREAKING BLUE STATE @kaine.senate.gov @markwarner.bsky.social!
American politics makes a lot more sense when you realize that the GOP is afraid of pissing off the GOP base, and the Dems are afraid of pissing off the GOP base, but neither party is afraid of pissing off the Dem base.

The fix was in, right @kaine.senate.gov? If this was so obvious why did @schumer.senate.gov vote "no?" Why did only 8 of you vote "aye?" You are gaslighting us and that just adds insult to injury.
@kaine.senate.gov then why didn't @markwarner.bsky.social vote with you?
Kaine on why he thinks just getting a vote on healthcare is a win: "We're the minority party, but everybody will get to see who is standing for them when it comes to lowering their healthcare costs"

You voted for five members of Trump's cabinet, dude.
This is a great illustration of why wholly unqualified extremists shouldn't be running essential government agencies.
MURRAY: It was due last week. By law.
PATEL: I understand.
MURRAY: You're not gonna follow the law? ... And you have no timeline?
PATEL: No
MURRAY: Hmm. We're not having a budget hearing without a budget request. So where is it?
