Chuck D: “This concert is not by Ed Sheeran’s promoters. Free Palestine, free Haiti, and please free a closed mind”
Flavor Flav: “And fuck Donald Trump!”
Everyone call 202-224-3121 and/or 202-225-1400 to let your elected representatives know your thoughts on who should lead the Democrats in the House and Senate
WATCH — @RepJeffries: “There’s no indication members of Congress have been overwhelmed by any calls.”
(This gaslighting seems to contradict what @axios@AndrewSolender have reported, and the million+ signatures on a petition for new leadership @MarkRuffalo helped circulate)
🚨BREAKING: Candidate for U.S. senator Mary Peltola (D) now significantly leads not just her main GOP opponent, Dan Sullivan, but both Sullivan candidates combined in Alaska’s high-stakes U.S. Senate race. https://t.co/EBPKUcLhgp
Democrats should strike while the iron is hot and work with Republicans to pass mass amnesty now. Plus defund the ICE Gestapo thug terrorists on our streets while they’re at it
Alex Karp now says that Palantir is progressive, he’s always been a Democrat, Trump went too far on immigration and his primary commitment is to economic justice. LMAOOOOOO
Abdul El-Sayed on why he would be willing to call it "Trumpcare-for-All" if it meant Trump would sign it:
"Donald, if you're watching, we can put your name on it. I know you like to put your name on stuff. You can finally meet the unmet promise in America to guarantee everybody health care. So, it's on the table if you want to do it."
Can you imagine if we took our mandate from last Tuesday to actually elect leaders that rode the momentum and genuinely fired up the base? We could be focusing on demolishing what’s left of MAGA and putting forward an actual agenda instead of whatever the fuck this is
We gotta stop throwing America’s sons and daughters into the damn meat grinder of war just so Raytheon and the military industrial complex can make a shiny penny.
Truly incredible that just two days in, as Hakeem Jeffries is rallying the troops to prove he has what it takes to lead, he manages to fuck up his first assignment in spectacular fashion. How are we supposed to have faith in him to get anything done?
Robert Garcia tells Jennifer Welch that Democrats are ready to go all in to stand up to the Trump administration: “If we’re not all fucking in then what the hell are we doing?”
Bernie Sanders announces he will NOT be supporting Chuck Schumer for Senate Majority Leader
“If this campaign was about anything, it was about change and the need for the Democratic Party to move in a new and bold direction. I personally have known Chuck Schumer for over 30 years. I like Chuck, nobody who works harder than Chuck Schumer, but in my view the time is now for change and I will not be supporting Chuck to be re-elected as the Democratic leader”
AOC BLASTS Donald Trump for appointing “neo-Nazi” Stephen Miller as his Chief of Staff:
“What he has done is made a decision after a historic midterm election that was a rebuke of his immigration policies and make this decision appointing Stephen Miller to affirm and uplift the worst and most cruel ICE policies that they have to offer”
Sen. John Fetterman says he’ll vote for Chuck Schumer to remain Senate Democratic leader:
“I absolutely stand with Schumer. I’m going to vote for Schumer.”
“I can’t imagine why you would vote for someone like Van Hollen with no record of doing anything.”
Bernie Sanders tells Jon Stewart his thoughts on Chuck Schumer for Senate Majority Leader: “When you talk about status quo politics, that’s what you’re talking about in terms of Chuck. Do I think we need new leadership which is gonna move the Democratic Party in a much more vigorous way to protect the needs of working families? Yes, I do, absolutely. People are sick and tired of the status quo. We cannot have leadership in the Democratic Party who are gonna do the same old same old”

Dem Sen. Raphael Warnock non-commital on Schumer: “I think we're at an inflection point in our country. The voters are demanding that we stand up and fight for them and so any member of my caucus that feels like they should lead in this moment, I look forward to hearing their case,” he told me.
