Here’s some things that can be done by a party out of power

- file impeachment articles every day in the House

- withhold unanimous consent in the senate and filibuster every nominee

- be everywhere with comms saying this is lawless and impeachable

It would be so cool if the United States Congress still existed.

I don’t understand how the first reaction from leadership isn’t “This is an impeachable offense. My colleagues must defund Hegseth and begin drafting articles immediately.”

Like, even if it doesn’t get done, how are you not planting this flag in the ground immediately?

Increase in productivity since 1979: 87%

Increase in hourly pay since 1979: 32%

Just so happens that ~25% of workers were unionized in 1979. Today? 10%.

As unions declined, the super-rich have taken a larger share of wealth generated by labor. We must build back union power.

Being antisemitic is NOT supporting Muslims, Arabs, Gazans, etc. . It’s just you being a hateful and horrible person who hates Jewish people. It just makes you an antisemite and a bad person.

It's time that some of y'all come to terms with the fact that this is not about the existence of the State of Israel, or what happened with Gaza, but about overall hatred of Jews: www.huffpost.com/entry/ap-as-...

Shooting a crowd of Jews on a beach peacefully celebrating a Jewish holiday is ANTISEMITIC. PERIOD.

It is all a con job. A few rich billionaire farmers will get money but the small farmers will get nothing. The small farmers will be losing everything while the billionaires laugh all the way to the bank, of course after they paid Trump his cut.

These people are truly evil. They have been for a long time, but this is a new stage of boldness.

The president is a political cartoon of corruption come to life, a gaudy grifter who is selling off pardons and lining his pockets, building a golden ballroom and protecting his fellow sex predator elites, all the while regular Americans are suffering and struggling to make ends meet.

Run on *that*

The President of the United States just called for Democratic members of Congress to be executed. "HANG THEM", he posted.

If you're a person of influence in this country and you haven't picked a side, maybe now would be the time to pick a fucking side.

Has anyone compiled a list of the various fake crises that have triggered Trump to "Truth" out that "We won’t have a Country anymore!!" ?

Starbucks' CEO is paid $95.8 MILLION.

The median worker at Starbucks makes $14,674 a year.

Instead of recognizing its worker union, Starbucks writes off its union-busting expenses on its taxes.

That's why Starbucks workers are striking today.

I won't cross the picket line.

Even 10 Dem Senators is still a big minority of Senate Dems (45+2). So if a majority of Senate Dems are actually opposed to this CAPITULATION, they should tell Chuck they will call a caucus vote and replace him if he proceeds. It's time to end appeasement & put the fighters in charge.

it's time for journos to start asking Johnson meta questions

"Speaker, on 5 occasions last week you said 'I haven't seen it' when asked about news events w/big implications for public policy. Do you ever read the news, and do you agree it's problematic for the Speaker to be so woefully uninformed?"

Reagan's approach to the world prominently featured two things:

1) Russian aggression bad, Western democratic alliance good
2) Free trade good, tariffs and other barriers to trade bad

Pretending it's the opposite is the sort of reality inversion only someone who rejects truth itself could buy.

Not being even vaguely sarcastic:

At some point, a journalist needs to ask Johnson “you regularly claim you have no idea what your own government is doing. If we take you at your word, how are you so poorly informed, and do you this level of ignorance should disqualify you as speaker?”
Q: What's your message to the 170 US citizens who have been detained by ICE? About 20 of them are children

MIKE JOHNSON: I don't know what you're talking about with the children. I haven't seen that so I'm not going to comment on it.

Not true. If people were merely calling for a Ceasefire, they would have been agreed with, 100% by supporters of Israel, 80% of whom hate Nethanyahu.

But people were using Zionism as an epithet.

People wanted Israel to cease to exist.

And that as the LEAST of it.
I can’t help but think today about how many young people were savaged on social media, branded as anti-semites and abandoned by their schools for daring to call for a ceasefire. I remember saying that it was the first time I can remember that calling for ceasefire was regarded as a hostile demand.

If U.S. states have any degree of sovereignty, if there’s any states’ rights at all, it is the right not to be invaded by the armed forces of another U.S. state.
