The Democrats are really letting us down . Shame on them.

We deserve better from you too . As a DC resident I’m losing faith in the Democrats and your lack of backbone in particular.

Right-wing justices on the Supreme Court have sanctioned racial profiling when targeting law-abiding immigrant communities.

Shame on these extremists.

They have zero credibility.

Democrats were right to drag out Trump’s nominees and make life hard for their GOP counterparts. That’s the necessary work of the opposition party. Each and every day, Senate Democrats should wake up and think of new ways to frustrate Trump’s authoritarian power consolidation.

Totally misleading

And you should also take to the DC streets as a sign of leadership.

And you should take to the streets as a show of leadership.

If there was real strong opposition then these politicians would be in the DC streets protesting.

Where are all the elected Democrats in Congress and the Senate ? Why aren’t they in the DC streets ? I get constant requests from them for money but they seldom
show up to lead .

What makes DC’s ordeal this week even worse?

Trump is using DC as a stage and DC residents as props in a political play to distract from his Epstein problem. 

This is unacceptable.

Agree completely !

About time to be taking a strong stance against Musk and his cronies .

How exactly are you fighting for me ?

With Trump firing your highly director , I’m wondering if I should even be following you .

I’m fed up with Independents .

Agreed. I cancelled mine last fall . Don’t miss it a bit .

You need to also focus on better communication with supporters of the Democratic Party . We are losing faith .

Haven't heard much about this speech in Quebec -

Ezra Levin of Indivisible talks to Jen Rubin On the swell of organized, collective action we're seeing nationwide and the upcoming Keep Your Hands Off protest on April 5

I had a good chat with @jenrubin.bsky.social just a bit ago about the upcoming big national April 5th Hands Off mobilization! contrarian.substack.com/p/ezra-levin...

Exclusion of media is very reminiscent of Trump.

Saw my first cherry blossom.

Indivisible Calls on Schumer to Step Aside

The CR was a debacle from top to bottom. Indivisible talked to our group leaders today about what to do next.

"...82% of group leaders in New York and 91% of Indivisible group leaders nationwide voted to call for Schumer to step aside as Senate Minority Leader."

The terrible CR Budget bill — written by right-wing House Republicans with no input from anybody but themselves — was passed tonight with the support of 10 Democrats.
 
An absolute failure of Democratic leadership. NOBODY in the Senate should have voted for this dangerous bill.

(above an image of Congress) HOUSE DEMOCRATS CAN STOP THE TRUMP-MUSK POWER GRAB IF THEY USE THEIR LEVERAGE IN THE GOVERNMENT FUNDING FIGHT Democrats are in the minority, but that doesn't mean they're without power. Here's how Democrats can stop extreme MAGA cuts and President Musk.

HOUSE DEMOCRATS HAVE LEVERAGE - IF THEY USE IT. House Republicans are in chaos, torn between extreme cuts to life-saving programs like Medicaid and shutdown fears. With a March 14 deadline and control of both the White House and Congress, the GOP owns any shutdown failure. Their majority is miniscule and as soon as the government funding bill looks even remotely reasonable, hardline MAGA extremists will revolt. That means the GOP will need Democratic support to pass a budget. Meanwhile, the Trump-Musk coup continues as MAGA tries to illegally raid payment systems, shut down federal agencies, and fire federal workers. The only way Democrats can stop any of this is by fighting like hell and refusing to cooperate.

DEMOCRATS NON-NEGOTIABLE DEMANDS PROTECT ESSENTIAL PROGRAMS Demand a budget that stops MAGA looting and protects working families, or Trump's team will slash essential programs and funnel cash to allies. STOP MAGA CORRUPTION Block any budget without strong protections against Trump and MAGA abuse. Without safeguards, Trump and his allies will divert funds while cutting essential programs. No cuts to Medicaid, Social Security, or food assistance-no loopholes, no empty promises. NO EXTREMIST RIDERS Hold the line on a clean government funding bill-no funding cuts to critical programs and no poison pill riders attacking abortion rights, LGBTQ+ protections, or immigrant communities.

WHAT YOU CAN DO TO HELP DEMOCRATS FIGHT BACK Whether your representative is a Democrat or a Republican, they need to hear from you right now. IF YOU'RE REPRESENTED BY A DEMOCRAT Ask them to hold the line. Democrats shouldn't vote for anything more than a two-week continuing resolution until the GOP comes to the table to negotiate a responsible budget with safeguards. IF YOU'RE REPRESENTED BY A REPUBLICAN tell them that you don't want to pay the price for the GOP's billionaire tax breaks. Check out the link in our bio to be connected with your Member of Congress.

Democrats are saying no votes unless the bill includes safeguards against Musk’s illegal & unconstitutional behavior. Republicans are rejecting that, but we need Democrats to hold the line. Make sure they hear from you.

Cannot stress Amy's second point enough. It's both morally wrong and unbelievably dangerous for Jews to allow ourselves to be used as the wedge to overturn basic civil liberties in this country.

Agree fully . The media language is a huge part of the problem.

Without question

DOGE recommended firing workers at:

-FDA, which oversees Neuralink

-FAA, which oversees SpaceX

-USAID, which probed Starlink

-CFPB, which oversees Tesla's financing arm and a potential payment platform on X.

"Conflict of interest" is a severe understatement.

Congressmen when they are asked if they will cut THEIR budgets and lay off staff as well:

Intermittent reminder that 'AI' is a broad name for a huge range of technologies, some of which are really useful and have no negative effects, some of which are pretty useless and/or based on plagiarism. The existence of one doesn't negate the existence of the other.
