We The People are the last line of defense. If we do not stand up now—if we do not demand accountability, free speech, and the protection of our rights—history will repeat itself. The question is not whether democracy can survive, but whether we are willing to fight for it. 5/5

Freedom is fragile, and democracy is never guaranteed. Taiwan fought for decades to break free from oppression and build a democracy—but today, in America, our own democracy is under threat. Government overreach, censorship, and the silencing of dissent echo the warning signs of the past. 4/5
The same patterns that led to authoritarian rule in Taiwan are creeping into America—where questioning the status quo is met with punishment, not debate. 3/5
Fast forward to today, and history feels eerily familiar. In the U.S., we see increasing government overreach, suppression of speech, censorship of dissenting voices, and weaponization of institutions against political opponents. 2/5
On February 28, 1947, Taiwan witnessed the brutal 228 Incident, where government forces violently suppressed civilians demanding democracy and justice. What followed was decades of martial law, censorship, and persecution of dissenters under an authoritarian regime. 1/5
Straight out of #Project2025
Today, I sent a letter, with @congresstran.bsky.social, calling out Speaker Johnson’s baseless claims of CA voter fraud and his attempts to put conditions on CA wildfire aid.
Let’s be clear: There is no voter fraud in California. And conditions on wildfire aid are un-American and pathetic.
Nah, it was in Project 2025.

Thank you Mr. President & Madam Vice President.
Thank you Rep. Judy Chu for being a steadfast champion for the #TaiwaneseAmerican community and #Taiwan!
Thank you Congressman @daveminca.bsky.social for your support of #Taiwan and the Taiwan Tax Relief Bill which will bring relief from double taxation for #taiwaneseamerican businesses across the country!
Congratulations to Adam Gray for expanding his lead over the GOP incumbent. All five counties in #CA13 have now reported and Adam Gray leads by 187 votes.
I look forward to serving with Congressman Adam Gray!
Happy #thanksgiving to all who celebrate! We are deeply grateful to all our dedicated volunteers and supporters for your continued support!
California understood the assignment.
Let’s go @adamgrayca.bsky.social !!!
Yes, and take a look at our second post!
Congratulations Mr. Congressman-Elect!
Congratulations to TAFP-endorsed candidate and Congressman-elect Derek Tran on your hard fought victory, and thank you for finishing the job Jay Chen started! We look forward to working with you in Congress!
Not only did she resort to the same racist tactics, Michelle had the audacity to claim she was more Vietnamese than Derek - a son of refugees from Vietnam.
We’re thrilled to see Derek Tran’s #CA45 lead grow by the day! Every ballot that was lawfully cast must be counted, and hundreds of thousands of uncounted ballots remain in California. That’s what local election workers are focused on. We want elections officials to count every lawfully cast ballot.
Congratulations to TAFP-endorsed candidate and Congressman-elect Dave Min on your hard fought victory! We look forward to all you will accomplish in Congress!
Hey BlueSky.
Do we qualify?
