It’s hard to argue that we should defend the status quo in government when so many people feel left behind. We can’t ignore this. We need to show the American public that this is not a party of the past. We have a vision for quality health care, housing, education, and a fair paycheck for everyone.

That's how you buy an election.
No political prisoners in the United States of America. Free Rumeysa and Mahmoud.
In no way does this "make America healthy again." Don’t we want a government capable of protecting Americans from pandemics and disease?
To take a knee is to say, I love my country and we have much more work to do.
To bend the knee is to capitulate, to cower, and to give in.
There are no kings in America.
Democrats, we are in a wake-up call moment. We can’t keep clinging to arbitrary rules that only we follow. Americans are begging us to take off the gloves, throw some elbows, and fight for our ideas and policies that we know are more popular and actually alleviate suffering.
Pete Hegseth must resign.
Trump might say he's not gutting Social Security, but he's firing staff, shutting down offices, letting the website crash, and cutting phone service.
If it's impossible to use then it's as good as gone.
Don't fall for his lies.

We’re not letting this go. Pete Hegseth must resign.
Dems, we cannot let texting war plans in a group chat go. It is outrageous. We need to demand that Republicans in the House hold hearings on this. They're threatening our national security and not even getting a slap on the wrist. We have to get to the bottom of this for the American public.

"We can't keep acting like it's 1980. The rules of engagement have changed."
@balint.house.gov tells @deanobeidallah.bsky.social that Democrats need to be holding shadow hearings and press conference to counter Republicans.
LISTEN: siriusxm.us/Dean
They are deeply underestimating the fury and rage this is igniting across the country. Do not mess with people's Social Security. This is an EARNED benefit. It’s YOUR money.
Social Security in turmoil:
— SSA website crashed four times in 10 days this month
— Phone service a mess following Musk-led cuts
— Agency no longer has a system to monitor customers’ experience due to DOGE
— Major staff exodus

Trump's not interested in the rule of law, the Constitution, or doing right by the American people. His focus is going after perceived enemies because he is simply failing at his job. People are angry. His actions are deeply unpopular and he knows it.
To everyone in Vermont out in the streets protesting, I see you! Keep it going! I'm proud of our brave little state standing up for democracy.

...Did anyone honestly expect anything less after deciding Pete Hegseth was the right person to lead the United States military? This level of incompetence is not only utterly astounding but it’s an obvious threat to our security.
Talk about a government parasite.
To Howard Lutnick, Trump's billionaire commerce secretary who thinks people won't notice if their Social Security checks don't arrive:
What planet are you on?
