Anyone not running on reforming the Supreme Court cant be the leader of anything moving forward. It's an unhinged gang of extremists unrestrained by anything or anyone.

Fair point. Bernie endorsed Gabbard, Fetterman and Platner, for instance.

and Bernie has had some catastrophic lapses in judgment imo - and judgement can go even while you still can train and express yourself well

Iran’s people were facing a horrible shortage of water before the war began. If we are destroying desalination plants and setting fire to Teheran we are committing unfathomable crimes.

Susan Collins has gotten all too comfortable staying silent as the President takes a wrecking ball to our Constitution. This moment demands someone who will fight back. I've stood up to him before, and I'm not afraid to do it again in the Senate.

This level of disgusting racism and cruelty didn’t exist in a vacuum, and it didn’t end with Epstein. Epstein files: “JEFF wanted, ‘young, fresh meat girls. Virgins.’ He told ■, ‘Don’t bring me any n*ggers.’”

TOM HOMAN: “We’re going to create a database where those people that are arrested for interference, impeding and assault, we’re going to make them famous. We’re going to put their face on TV. We’re going to let their employers, in their neighborhoods, in their schools, know who these people are.”

you cannot reform or retrain an utterly sociopathic contempt for human life like this abolish and prosecute ICE

I am just gonna say it, these guys are completely emasculated by the knowledge that they have been out-organized by a group that is significantly made up of women, and all the bullshit call of duty nonsense is cope for their wounded egos bsky.app/profile/jeet...

MAGA military geniuses are talking about Minnesota protestors like they are the Iraqi insurgency, the Taliban, and the Viet Cong all rolled into one.

I am impeaching Secretary Kristi Noem, who is an incompetent leader and a disgrace to our democracy. She wreaked havoc in the Chicagoland area and has brought her reign of terror to Minneapolis. One of her rogue ICE agents shot and killed an innocent woman today. It must come to an end.

Melanie reposted

"I'm calling to demand the immediate dismantling of ICE for the murder of a woman in Minneapolis today and the impeachment of the President for his support of that murder" is the easiest call to my senators and representative I've ever made

Melanie reposted

Masked ICE agents, it seems, are now killing American citizens on American streets. Any Democrat who doesn’t support abolishing ICE should be instantly primaried and run out of the party. This is non negotiable. You cannot support the continued existence of this fascist murderous secret police.

Melanie reposted

Time for Democrats in the Senate to deny unanimous consent in protest of murderous ICE.

Tina Smith@smith.senate.gov

Homeland Security’s description of what happened and the narrative they’re pushing clearly doesn’t match up with the videos we’re all seeing. They’re asking people not to believe what we can all see with our own eyes. I’ve been in contact with DHS demanding more information.

Melanie reposted

my heart is just completely broken for this woman, killed trying to protect her community and her friends, and for all the people of Minneapolis, who always seems to unfairly caught in the crosshairs of our national malaise

Melanie reposted

what this should make clear to everyone in this country is that it does not matter who you are, there's no "it could never happen to me" you can be a white woman who drives around with stuffed animals in her car, and they will still kill you in cold blood and call you a domestic terrorist

Tonight, the President of the United States has launched an unconstitutional war of aggression, dooming another generation to spill their blood for oil, and lay waste to a sovereign nation. I demand that Congress exercise its power, halt this conflict, and impeach this war criminal president.

Good example of what every elected Dem and candidate should be saying loudly right now:

Schumer on a press call accuses the Trump administration of lying to him during briefings about Venezuela, then moments later calls for more briefings

Melanie reposted

You have to go through Congress for anything resembling this type of war. Round up Massie and Paul types and have him removed. The people in this administration are on actual drugs and have insatiable bloodlust and bespoke mental illnesses. He has to go, and everybody with him.

Melanie reposted

That one person can drag us into a war without consulting or even notifying Congress, or our allies, or fully explaining to the American people why this is necessary, is absolutely bonkers. Reminder that Congress has the power to stop all of this. Where the hell are they?

Replying to @noveltycistern.bsky.social

It's illegal for the president to relieve student loan debt. It's completely fine for the president to unilaterally decide to have the head of a foreign nation black bagged on foreign soil.

Melanie reposted

Just woke up even angrier. Impeach, convict, remove. Draft articles now. Either we have a representative government or we don’t. Do not shut up about this until there’s a vote.

WALZ: “.. Donald Trump’s calling our Somali neighbors ‘garbage’ and calling the state of Minnesota a ‘hellhole’. I’m assuming it’s unprecedented for a United States President. .. We’ve got little children going to school today, their president called them ‘garbage’.”

Kelly: He runs around on stage talking about lethality and the warrior ethos.. That’s not the message that should be coming from the Secretary of Defense… He runs around on a stage like he’s a 12 year old playing army. It’s embarrassing.

Sen. Kelly: “This is about a president who doesn't want anybody to say anything that he does not like. I don't think he understands the Constitution. I think he is ignorant to the Constitution and the rule of law…This isn't about me. This is about what he will do next.”
