@darius @jalcine I remember the protests. It was a vicious, stupid, pointless war. The world knew it, Americans knew it, and it happened anyway.

@fernandomorgan I don't assume anything. I think you're talking to the Democratic politicians, not me.

I'm getting into the last of our corned beef for a final hash of the week.

I hope you have a good March Equinox and a happy International Day of Happiness.

@johannab @ErickaSimone I'd suggest maybe just deleting it and doing a straight repost without the extra text.

@ErickaSimone @vruz I think she's supporting your point, trying to spread your note, and encouraging white people to get their shit together.

@weyoun6 they do have power. They are the opposition party in one of the most divided congresses in US history. They can obstruct, spotlight, and interfere. That's what they should be doing.

@faithpeterson it's the only game they know how to play. They don't know how to meet this moment.

They had another excerpt from an NPR interview of Chuck Schumer where the interviewer said that they had reported on many backsliding democracies, and that often the opposition didn't realize what was happening until it was too late. Could that be happening now? Schumer was like, flatly, no.

I guess the question I'd ask is, what are the most important things for Democrats to stop Trump and the Republicans from doing? And the question they're asking themselves is, what topics can we make a big deal about that will win an election in 2026 and 2028? And I guess those are two different questions.

@newyorktimes @u-s-newyorktimes I feel like if you manage to skim $240M you should be able to afford to move somewhere with lax extradition policies

Who knows; they might vote for war.

I find this so upsetting and disappointing. 2 million people are in immanent danger of ethnic cleansing in Gaza, at the behest of the President of the United States who wants a colony on the Mediterranean. The president is planning wars on Panama, Greenland, and Canada. But the Democrats, one of the only potential brakes on this insanity, are going to focus on kitchen table issues instead.
