Here are their numbers if you want to call them and share your thoughts. Each number starts with 202-225 Ami Bera -5716 Ed Case -2726 Jim Costa -3341 Laura Gillen -5516 Jim Himes -5541 Chrissy Houlahan -4315 Marcy Kaptur -4146 Jared Moskowitz -3001 Marie Gluesenkamp Perez -3536 Tom Suozzi -3335
Here are the 10 Dems who just voted with MAGA to censure Rep Al Green for loudly rebuking Trump's fascist plan to gut Medicaid: •Ami Bera (CA) •Jim Costa (CA) •Jim Himes (CT) •Jared Moskowitz (FL) •Ed Case (HI) •Laura Gillen (NY) •Tom Suozzi (NY) •Marcy Kaptur (OH) •Chrissy Houlahan (PA) •Marie Gluesenkamp Perez (WA)
Bad enough they don’t have the courage to do anything more than hold up a silly sign, but to tear down the one Dem willing to get into Good Trouble to oppose fascism? Spineless.
Y'all notice this hypocrisy? •Musk gets $20B+ in federal subsidies—is celebrated! •NPR gets ~$3M in federal grants—Trump wants to shut it down as "wasteful."
This isn't democracy—it's autocracy & an all out war on free press. Here are two ways we can fight back:
If Black elders who suffered Jim Crow are still with us, & Indigenous elders who were stripped of their land are still with us, & Japanese elders who were forced into Camps are still with us, & Asian elders who were denied the right to immigrate are still with us, & Latino elders who were cruelly denied documented status are still with us, & women who were denied basic financial autonomy are still with us—how can anyone pretend the people & systems enforcing those atrocities are magically gone?🤔
A Jewish American named Mordechai Brafman fired 17 shots at 2 people, believing them to be Palestinian. The victims were in fact two Israeli Jews, who then posted “Death to the Arabs" on FB
Here's the full story media is ignoring & how you can help demand justice
Let him try to prosecute me—a literal human rights lawyer who knows the law far better than he ever will—for upholding due process of law and the rights afforded to *ALL PEOPLE IN THIS COUNTRY* under our US Constitution.
A Jewish American named Mordechai Brafman shot at two people 17 times because he thought they were Palestinian. He expressed joy at believing he killed them.
He only injured them. Who were they? Two Israeli Jews, a father & son, the Rabeys. After being shot by a Jewish American, the son, Ari Rabey then posted on Facebook, “Dear Jews, they tried to kill us for nationalistic reasons," blaming Arabs for the attack on them.
I don't have the words to express how absurd & reckless this is.
Billionaires didn't become billionaires by caring about people. They became billionaires by exploiting people.
So when you see billionaires work to dismantle the CFPB, US AID, NIH, CDC, and social welfare programs in general, know that it isn't because they think it'll help people.
Shortly after Trump banned 1600 vetted Afghan refugees who risked life & limb to help the USA against the Taliban, he issued an EO to accept white South Africans as refugees...because they're white.
Just one of Trump's latest fascist EOs. I break them down here:
Trump hopes Americans don’t realize what the CFPB does.
So I wrote this piece on why CFPB exists, the billions it has saved us, & why dismantling it devastates working people. This is class warfare & we cannot afford to lose.
It's beyond frustrating to watch Democrats in power complain they can't do anything because they're in the minority like we all didn't just watch Mitch McConnell continue to find ways to derail Dem efforts on key bills when Republicans were in the minority.
Fascism is when Donald Trump bans 1600+ vetted Afghan Muslim refugees who helped USA against the Taliban—but now issues an Executive Order accepting white Afrikaner South Africans as refugees to the USA.
It was never about justice or national security. It was always about advancing white supremacy.
