I know I sound like a broken record, but I really need EVERYONE to vote in these primaries. Too many people stay at home because they think "I'll vote for any Democrat in November" & I understand why that made sense in the past, but that mindset HAS to change.

We need people that are willing to challenge the system and demand radical change, not complacent careerists that don't care if the system continues to erode in front of us.

We need people that will take power & push to dramatically change our government, so another Trump can never do this damage again.

Too many Democrats in Congress, lack the will to: eliminate the filibuster, expand the Supreme Court, tax billionaires, halt funding to Israel, get money out of politics, enact universal healthcare, etc.

Until we replace those people, with fighters, I'm afraid we're doomed to see another fascist take power again, and do even more damage than Trump is now. Please vote in your primary elections. Vote these do-nothing incumbents out.

I would like to add that I believe it's critical for Black people to run for state and local offices more than ever. The states control elections so let's make sure the best people are in charge.

Tennessee just did. They said it loud and clear. The divided by 5 a heavily black populated area and added just a sliver to 5vof the heavily white populated areas. Then afterward had two troopers haul, not escort, haul two black congress members out. So actions are louder than words. So Tennessee and Texas are yelling White only

Thank you I needed some positivity at the moment I’ve been crying all day after seeing what they’ve been doing in Va, TN it’s disgusting so thank you 🙏🏽

I was thinking the same thing. I wanted to come on here and rage, but I thought we could all use some positivity after the events of today. We're not done fighting. This is just the beginning.

Personally, I'd like to see a little more cushion for whenever Fetterman goes rogue.

Very true. That feels inevitable at this point. Hopefully Dems can sweep all of the tossups in November. That would give them 52 & nullify his nonsense.

Don’t forget Texas! @James Talarico Could Hand the Democrats the Senate Judiciary Committee! He’d be #53.

Convince the apathetic to show up at the polls! They are why this administration is in power even more than those who voted for it.

Do not give me hope.

I’m from the backwater state of Ohio.

We turned out the wonderful Sherrod Brown for a convicted car salesman who cheated his employees out of their wages.

We had the same in Washington state decades ago when a perfectly excellent Democratic Representative was turned out by evangelical s and GOP. The new guy was missing a few light bulbs, but he kept getting re-elected. Strong libertarian thread in WA, ID, MT, AK.

Trump’s Presidency is now condemned by 67% of the American people. This supermajority will not rest until Trump—and his Neo-Nazi enablers—are removed from office, prosecuted for treason, convicted, and punished as dictated by the Constitution.

Use what trump administration just did with the public lands transferred for drilling!!! Once public lands are taken they will NEVER EVER be “given” back!!!

I think re-gerrymandering is going to kick Republicans in the teeth this fall. Instead of isolating Black votes in one district, the GOP has spread them out. Democrats are very motivated to vote this year, as special elections are showing. Normally a lot of voters wouldn't bother showing up for a special election. Dems are turning out in record numbers, and discouraged Republicans are staying home. I think that will carry over to the elections this fall. Democrats will turn out to vote no matter where they've been reassigned, and Republicans will either stay home or come out to vote against Trump. Instead of diluting the Black vote, the GOP has pissed them off and made them more likely to vote. Gas prices, plus the additional economic shocks that are coming in the next several months, will further anger MAGAts and Republicans and bring them out to vote against their party.

An old lady can dream, can't she?

The SUPERMAJORITY PLAN TO IMPEACH TRUMP and HIS ADMINISTRATION

It will take 292 house and 67 senate votes to obtain a supermajority vote. This is the key to accomplishing anything in the house or senate. The house and senate will be able to impeach Trump and his administration for their crimes and corruption.

The Democrats are the only ones that will stand against Trump. We have to vote out as many republicans as possible.

EVERYONE IS GOING TO HAVE TO VOTE FOR DEMOCRATS IN THE NOVEMBER 3RD MIDTERM ELECTIONS TO MAKE THIS WORK

Make sure you share this with everyone you know without social media. People without social media are unaware how corrupt and detrimental Trump’s administration really is for our country. The media outlets do not post anything negative about Trump. Some people don’t even know what the midterm elections are or how important they are.

TRUMP, HIS ADMINISTRATION, HIS BILLIONAIRE PEDOPHILE NETWORK (Elon Musk) , AND THE REPUBLICAN PARTY ARE MAKING IT IMPOSSIBLE FOR THE WORKING CLASS TO SURVIVE.

WE HAVE TO STOP THEM FROM DESTROYING THE COUNTRY

It will not turn the Senate to Dems. Many Dems in the Senate are two face crooks who are desperate not to lose their seat, privileges, network etc. It is a corrupt Senate this one and there is no hope for a better future for working class
