Listening now, but I had to pause to comment here and refer you to the interview with Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse on The Contrarian where he goes over why passing the bill, was the least terrible option to deliberate. On face value, yes, it sucks, but there was more to consider. Please watch it.

I'll be with the 'No kings' marchers and protesters in spirit tomorrow while stuck at work. Stand for Democracy!

I HATE that these MAGA republicans are doing these sleazy, dishonest, despicable things cloaked in the US flag. They disgrace and discredit us all.
I don’t know how many times we have to say this, but the U.S. government is not a business and shouldn’t be run like one. It’s a service—for the people.
Horrifying: After the contract tracking Ukrainian children abducted by Russia was terminated, the underlying evidence of these potential war crimes seems to be missing, a bipartisan group of Reps just charged in letter to Rubio. Two GOPers signed.

One more time – a little louder –
If the White House is looking to establish peace between Russia and Ukraine –
Tell Russia to get out of Ukraine.
When Russia leaves there’s instant peace.
See how easy that is?
💯

He's absolutely right.

I wrote about what protest can do! And I've included some reasons you might not have thought about before for why, if you haven't started demonstrating yet, you should start now.

CARTOON OF THE DAY
Spread the word. Make an impact. Resist!
No Amazon. No Walmart. No Target. No Disney. No Google. No Apple. No Visa or Mastercard. And especially no Facebook or Twitter. Buy essentials such as medicine, food, and emergency supplies, of course, but make those purchases at small, local businesses and use cash. The purpose of today’s economic blackout is to send a clear message: We have the power.
Yes! 💙
Why aren’t you here?
Want to show the administration how you feel?
Show up.
Now.
Lincoln Memorial.
Please.
PAY ATTENTION and VOTE !!!!!!
Imagine being rich enough to do anything you want and choosing to take food and medicine from starving children to give yourself even more money.
