Dear Leaders of the Free World,
Fight him at every turn.
Make his life miserable.
Expose his ignorance and sociopathy.
Oppose and condemn and marginalize him.
The decent people of this nation are not with him.
We stand with you.

When I was a Hill staffer in 2009, a Dem trifecta was trying to pass universal healthcare. In response, Senate GOP released a memo detailing all of the tactics they in the minority could use to delay the effort as much as possible. I'm recirculating that 2009 GOP memo here. Take inspiration from it.
Most of our problems could be solved by properly funding public education.
Starting a phony transgender bathroom debate and hiding behind the guise of “protecting women” to distract from your attempts to push through the confirmations of alleged rapists, sex traffickers, and fraudsters at the highest levels of government is peak Republican Party.
There were a hundred different instances of “This should have been the end of his influence.” But none so apparent as this day.
My parents encouraged my love of reading and did not police the books I chose. I am a more empathetic, open minded person because of this and for that, I will be forever grateful.
“Have fun in your little safe space echo chamber” like dude calm down I’m just going to hang out with my friends
Truth.
We’re not really taking care of anyone, but hey, at least the wealthy aren’t going without.
Testify!
He’ll forever be guilty.
I share exactly the same fears for my medically fragile son with special needs. It's terrifying.
Post by Charlotte Clymer: Every transphobic argument can basically be boiled down to: "I actually don't know the science at all or have a good argument here, but trans people challenge my long held view of the world and it's very uncomfortable and everyone should be expected to move around my discomfort."
This…this is it. In a nutshell, yes.
At this point, democrats have to concentrate on stopping the ones that will do the most damage.
Forget the distraction nominees. Focus on the serious threats.
Gaetz, Gabbard and Hegseth remain the most problematic.
Today is Transgender Day of Remembrance. Each year, the trans community loses too many lives, especially trans women of color, to hate and violence.
More than ever, we must stand by our trans family and support them, hold space for them, and insist the scapegoating and targeting stop.
Now.
Ah, yes, the legendary Badlands Tweets!
We left X and joined Bluesky because those against our parks said, “If you don’t like it, leave.” So we did. And now they’re saying, “No, come back so we can say mean things to you—it makes us feel important.”
#Trump’s administration: dysfunction as a design feature.
Great advice
Fascism is here.
We face a demented dictator emboldened by the American oligarchy.
We are the Spartans. The first wave on the beaches of Normandy.
Our job is to slow them down. To resist at every turn. To fight for every inch, while our reinforcements gather
In strength.

The French Revolution was not kind to The Aristocats…
Here is a second one, there is likely some overlap between both of them as they were compiled by different people around the same time.

Trump’s popular-vote lead keeps narrowing, as Cook Political Report shows in its update from this morning.
Not a single journalist worldwide could credibly call this a mandate.
Just so we’re clear -
Any party telling you who you can love, what gender you are, which medicine you can take, which books you can read, which history you can learn, what prayers you should pray and what you can and cannot do with your own body, doesn’t give a fuck about freedom.
Normalizing Trump is a bad idea.
Period.
Hannibal Lecter would've been a better nomination for HHS than RFK Jr.
