The Democratic Party needs to get younger, feistier, smarter at messaging and more in touch with the electorate, both at the state and federal levels.
Democratic voters need to get more discerning about who they choose to fight against the rising tide of oligarchic fascism.

Start with these:
-Expand SCOTUS to 13 & install term limits.
-Codify Roe
-Send MAGA's to jail that deserve it. See Homan, DJT
-End the filibuster
-Rebuild gov't
End with these:
-STOP the BS with bipartisanship. There is nobody who is bipartisan in the GOP!
-🛑voting for Republicans, EVERYWHERE!

The White House continues to make our work harder. They’ve:
✂️ Cut funding for transportation and education
👎 Effectively told families in poverty “you’re on your own”
❌ Presided over the longest government shutdown in history
🚨 Failed to act after Western Maryland was hit by a devastating storm.

My law firm has already filed to intervene to defend voters in 13 of the first 14 cases. We are working on the remains 5.
This is an insane effort by DOJ and we are a small firm. But we are committed to protecting free and fair elections in 2026.

Around 70% of the U.S. economy depends on consumer spending. As wealth concentrates in the richest 10%, the rest of America can’t afford to buy enough to keep the economy running.
This is a huge problem — and even America’s most powerful CEOs are starting to sound the alarm.

It’s frustrating that as a party many senior Dems refuse to call out Republicans for failing to address healthcare for 17 YEARS. Sen J Kennedy had no issue saying Dems are “responsible”, which is 100% wrong, but Dems won’t say the GOP are 100% responsible for having no plan or subsidies expiring!
