Second, REACHER. I love AMAZONs series REACHER. I noted the new season in "No one the Chump administration is qualified" and some of you were disappointed. You wanted spoilers. So, when I write about it next I'm going to be doing spoilers. I'll do an all caps "SPOILER" warning but I will be doing spoilers. Remember new episodes start streaming at AMAZON on Thursdays. I wont catch it until Friday.
I really love REACHER and I really love the James Bond movies. Or loved. Loved. I'm afraid it's going to be past tense. Hope I'm wrong. Jake Kanter (DEADLINE) reports:
Timothy Dalton has revealed he is “sad” at the prospect of James Bond falling into the hands of Amazon.
In an interview with The Daily Telegraph, Dalton, who played 007 in The Living Daylights and Licence To Kill, lamented the idea of a British icon being under the creative control of an American company.
"It
is one of the few wonderful stories we've got in film that is British.
The leading character is British. We can call it our own,” said the
actor, who is on the promotion trail for 1923.
Dalton
said Bond would miss Broccoli’s unique touch, which has seen her
carefully marshal the brand and resist the temptation to turn Ian
Fleming’s hero into “content” with endless spin-offs.
"Barbara
is one of the best women in the whole world. I think she's fantastic.
Around a Bond movie, everyone's got an opinion. That tends to make
something less special, but if you keep it to people who know what
they're doing and know what they want, then it will sharpen up and be
good. Barbara had that,” Dalton explained.
Jeff Bezos is now in charge of James Bond? Why do I feel like the franchise is now dead?
After
winning the election last year, Donald Trump sought to reassure
Americans he wouldn’t seek vengeance against his political opponents
despite making many threatening comments about his perceived enemies on
the campaign trail.
“I’m not looking to go back into the past,” Trump told NBC’s “Meet the Press” in December. “I’m looking to make our country successful. Retribution will be through success.”
It was a hollow campaign promise he abandoned just a few days into
his second presidential term. Now, a month later, Trump’s
administration has dropped all pretense about focusing on the future by
using the powers of the state to attack his political opponents,
threatening federal investigations of Democratic officials, and
attempting to silence dissent by banning media organizations that don’t
conform to the president’s agenda.
While
Trump and his MAGA allies maintain that he’s just returning the favor
after being picked on by President Joe Biden’s administration, alarmed
Democrats see echoes of totalitarianism in Trump’s administration,
especially as the White House and billionaire Elon Musk run roughshod
over Congress, freezing spending and making a mockery over its power of
the purse.
“Anyone
listening to Donald Trump during the campaign and knowing his
background of distortion and untruth had to see it coming. Retribution
for Donald Trump is like breathing for him,” Sen. Richard Blumenthal
(D-Conn.) said. “We warned about it and now it’s here, so we just need
to fight it.”
"We warned you about it and now it's here."
Exactly.
And that's why most Americans will never, ever forgive Rashida Tlaib.
That's why the Socialists must be outed. They plotted and schemed
against Kamala to elect Chump. They used their echo chamber media of
DEMOCRACY NOW!, THE NATION, COMMON DREAMS, et al -- all Socialists in
the closet. And they created and sold the narrative that Kamala was no
different than Chump. They are responsible for Chump being back in the
White House.
As C.I. says, we can't afford them.
We
know we can't trust them. If we're lucky, this country makes it
through the next four years. If we're lucky. But even if that happens,
Rashida can never be forgiven. Do you know how many immigrants live in
fear right now. Do you know how many of them aren't sending their kids
to schools right now? It's outrageous that Rashida brought about this
but she did.
We were kind
enough to let her run on our ticket. She's not a Democrat. We didn't
have to give her that spot. But we did and her thank you was to stab us
in the back.
Rashida needs to be kicked out of Congress.
She's
from an increasing conservative district. A real Democrat runs against
her in a primary? All she or he has to say is, "I'm a Democrat."
Rashida's the one hiding in a closet and I really think Socialism will
be a hard sell for her conservative constituents. If I were her, I'd be
making public statements right now, trying to get ahead of the
you-lied-and-said-you-were-a-Democrat fall out that awaits her.
She
stabbed us in the back. She refused to stand up for us. But she also
refused to stand up for democracy. She's as bad as any MAGA.
Her
lying fans know that too so they try to stop the criticism. They'll
lie and say, "Oh, it's because she's Palestinian!" or some such
nonsense.
No, it's because she betrayed her country and betrayed democracy and betrayed the party and betrayed Americans.
And
Americans are worried, not just immigrants. LGBTQ+ Americans are under
threat due to Chump. Women are under threat due to Chump. People of
color are under threat due to Chump.
We
knew what Chump was. This was the time to unite. But instead the
Socialialists of DSA wanted to screw our country over and now, after the
election, they show up whining about how we have to work together. The
time to work together was before the election.
Now?
Oh, hell no. We can't trust you Socialists. And if AOC wants to run
for the presidential nomination of the Democratic Party? Maybe we'll
let her, maybe we won't.
You
get that right? That she's not an automatic because she's a
Socialist. It was the same with Bernie. He had to get approval to run
back in 2016 because he's not a Democrat.
AOC
might want to run and might get denied just because of Rashida. Rashida
has created tremendous ill will within the Democratic Party and her
refusal to acknowledge that, let alone apologize, means we don't want
her and we may punish the other Socialists posing as Democrats.
Ralph
Nader never recovered from putting Bully Boy Bush in the White House
and Rashida and her cry baby fans better grasp that this will be her
future as well.
Wednesday, February 26, 2025. South African-born racist Alien Musk
grows ever more unpopular around the world and, look, it's the return of
mercenary Erik Prince.
Let's start with the deeply unpopular Alien
Musk. As Senator Elizabeth Warren explained to Lawrence O'Donnell on
MSNBC last night. Musk's plans are about ripping off the American
citizens and stealing all the tax money he can.
Politico
journalist Jonathan Martin predicted that Americans might see
President Donald Trump dump his cost-cutting bulldog Elon Musk as soon
as “this summer or this fall” as he grows “tired” of the billionaire’s
“antics” and “unpopularity.”
The take comes as polling suggests that Musk’s aggressive cost-cutting measures within the federal government are losing favor with the public.
A Washington Post–Ipsos
poll found that 49 percent disapprove of Musk’s management of the
Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), with particular concern over
granting DOGE staffers unprecedented access to sensitive government
databases.
I
don't know why they're being so modest -- afraid Alien will get the big
head? It's not just DOGE that's unpopular, it's Alien himself.
I watch the news and wonder, "What are these people smoking?"
Take
Ukraine. I've yet to see a report on how it's alienating right wing
Christian communities -- Chump's decision to back Russia over Ukraine.
Does the media not know how -- especially in the south -- it has been
Christian churches helping people relocate from Ukraine, setting them up
with doctors, helping them fill out forms. This has been a major
operation for many Christian churches in the south (White churches) and
these people are not pleased with Chump.
But Alien Musk himself is deeply unpopular. And that's not just in the USA, that's North America. In fact, M.B. Mack (LATINO TIMES) reports:
More than 200,000 Canadians have signed a parliamentary petition demanding that Elon Musk be stripped of his citizenship over his ties to Donald Trump's administration and its repeated threats against the country's sovereignty.
Canadian activist Qualia Reed launched a petition in Canada's House of Commons, accusing Musk of working against the country's national interests by advising Trump, The Guardian reported.
The
petition, which has been endorsed by New Democrat MP Charlie Angus,
argues that Musk's alignment with Trump makes him a member of a foreign
government seeking to undermine "Canadian sovereignty" after Trump
repeatedly joked about making the country the US' 51st state.
The
petition quickly gained momentum, surpassing 237,000 signatures, far
exceeding the 500-signature threshold needed for parliamentary
consideration.
Wouldn't
it be great if he lost Canadian citizenship and the US citizenship that
he illegally got? Criminals need multiple citizenships so they have
places to flee too when the hammer starts to come down on them.
Please
call your members of Congress today and tell them Elon Musk must be
fired. Immediately. (The U.S. Capitol switchboard is 202-224-3121. Tell
the operator where you’re from and the operator will connect you to your
representatives and senators.)
This
past weekend, Musk, the richest person in the world, posted a message
to millions of federal employees on X — the platform he bought for $44
billion and turned into a cesspool of lies, hate, and bigotry. His
message, from his own account, was:
“Consistent
with President @realDonaldTrump’s instructions, all federal employees
will shortly receive an email requesting to understand what they got
done last week. Failure to respond will be taken as a resignation.”
Shortly
afterward, all federal employees — including some judges, court staff,
and federal prison officials — received a three-line email with this
instruction:
“Please reply to this email with approx. 5 bullets of what you accomplished last week and cc your manager.”
The deadline to reply was listed as today at 11:59 p.m.
Musk
is drunk with power. His messages are illegal. He had no authority to
send them and has no authority to fire or threaten to fire anyone.
A Department of Justice official, granted anonymity to avoid retribution, noted that
the email was labeled as coming from an “external,” server, adding they
“cannot legally respond to this” because they handle classified
material.
Federal
court officials instructed federal court employees not to respond to
the email. “This email did not originate from the Judiciary or the
Administrative Office and we suggest that no action be taken,” officials
wrote.
Co-President
Elon Musk mocked the hundreds of thousands of Americans he has put out
of work in a post on X Tuesday, seeming to revel in the destruction of
the American middle class that he has helped cause.
"This
time, the DC swamp is actually draining," Musk posted in response to a
tweet that quoted an CNBC study stating that unemployment is spiking in
Washington, D.C. as a result of the Trump and Musk purge of federal
employees.
Chump put his boyfriend in charge and the whole country suffers. And just the look of it -- he fires them and he mocks them?
But what
does it matter to him? It's not his country he's destroying. And,
again, he's not a nice nor a decent person (few smut peddlers are decent
people). David Oliver (USA TODAY) reports:
Elon Musk has the ear of one of the most powerful people in the world – President Donald Trump – making him one
of the most powerful people in the world, too. He's been given
unfettered access to adjust the federal government's budget and
headcount.
So what's he doing posting a slur multiple times targeting the disabled community on social media?
Musk – who boasts nearly 220 million followers on X, the social media platform he owns – has repeatedly used the "R" word to
describe people with whom he disagrees. In the last week alone, he's
included it in at least three tweets. The use of this language has
sparked criticism from people with disabilities and their advocates, who were beginning to see a world where such terms were deemed unacceptable. USA TODAY has reached out to Musk for comment.
"When
we, disabled people, speak out against its usage, our concerns are
frequently ignored or minimized with excuses like 'I’m not using it in a
harmful way,'" says Nila Morton,
a 26-year-old disability advocate. "This dismissive attitude implies
that the feelings of disabled people are less important, like our pain
does not matter. In reality, the casual use of this word further
marginalizes our community that already struggles to secure equal
opportunities and fair treatment in society."
Again,
he's not a nice person, nor is he a decent person. And that's a
reality that people are awakening too around the world. Ashifa Kassam (GUARDIAN) explains:
When
Mike Schwede first sat in a Tesla Roadster 15 years ago, he felt like
it was a glimpse into the future. By 2016, he was the proud owner of a
Tesla, revelling in the thumbs up he would get from other drivers as he
whizzed along Europe’s highways in the electric vehicle.
But
of late the sheen of owning a Tesla has begun to wear off. For years
the brand has been synonymous with Elon Musk and his stance against the
climate crisis. Recently, Schwede watched aghast as the Tesla CEO poured hundreds of millions into backing Donald Trump as he made promises to ramp up domestic oil and gas production.
“He
was getting more and more weird,” said Schwede, an entrepreneur and
digital strategist based in Switzerland. The final straw came when Musk
made back-to-back fascist-style salutes during
Trump’s inauguration in January. “I felt nothing but utter disgust,”
said Schwede. “And I no longer enjoyed sitting in my Tesla.”
On Tuesday, data from the European Automobile Manufacturers’ Association showed sales of new Tesla cars almost halved in
Europe last month. The figures left analysts scrambling to assess how
big a factor customers turning their backs on the brand because of
Musk’s foray into far-right politics may be.
Frank Landymore (FUTERISM) offers this ruling, "According to the latest data from
the European Automobile Manufacturers' Association (ACEA), sales of new
Tesla cars in the continent have plummeted to just 9,945 vehicles in
January, down from 18,161 in the same period last year, per the Guardian. That's a whopping 45 percent decrease." And it's not across Europe that Telsa's struggling, Rob Wile (NBC NEWS) reports:
But
since mid-December, the tech titan's net worth has declined by more
than $100 billion, or approximately 25%, as a sell-off in shares of
Tesla, his electric car maker, has accelerated in recent weeks.
On
Tuesday, the stock closed down another 8% to $302.80 and is off 20%
year to date. The latest drawdown comes as new data showed new Tesla
vehicle registrations plummeting in Europe, down 45% year-on-year for
January, even as overall sales growth of electric-battery vehicles on
the continent climbed. Sales in China also recently came in trending
down.
Some reports have suggested European
buyers are revolting against Musk's active role in the Trump
administration, which is effectively resetting longstanding European
relations.
Investors
may also simply be locking in the extraordinary gains of the past year
or so: Even with the recent drop-off, the stock is still up 52% over the
past 12 months.
On
Tuesday, Gary Black, managing partner at The Future Fund investment
group, said Tesla shares could fall even further this year given an
apparent revision in recent Tesla corporate management guidance about
deliveries in 2025.
About
10 years ago, Tom Blackburn became one of the first 100,000 people to
buy a Tesla Model S. The purchase was part of a broader effort to adopt a
more environmentally conscious lifestyle, which also included
installing solar panels on his Virginia home.
Now,
the 76-year-old is worried about the message his car might send to
others: that he supports Tesla Motors CEO Elon Musk, who has embraced
right-wing politics, boosted antisemitic conspiracy theories on his
personal X account, and become a central figure of President Donald
Trump’s administration. As a small act of protest, Blackburn purchased a
bumper sticker that reads, “I bought this before I knew he was crazy.”
Marylander
Carla Harne, 41, has watched the tide turn against Tesla and Musk from
the front seat of her sleek, fiery red Model 3. Harne’s interactions
with others over her car had mostly been positive — until last year,
when, hours after Trump was elected president of the United States,
someone threw “probably a dozen” eggs at her car as she drove home from
work.
“My windshield was just covered,” Harne said.
Andrew Loewinger of Northwest D.C. sold his Model S in November to protest Musk and his “abhorrent politics and actions.”
“After
I sold the car, I got a customer satisfaction survey from them, and
what I wrote, which I still believe, is that Musk has irretrievably
damaged the brand, and I would not associate with that brand again,
period,” Loewinger, 71, said.
Nobody wants to be associated with him. Not even the people working with him on DOGE. Valerie Volcovici, Tim Reid and Alexandra Alper (REUTERS) note,
"Twenty-one workers resigned from his so-called Department of
Government Efficiency in protest on Tuesday, saying in a letter that
they refused to cooperate with the downsizing effort." Ken Thomas (WALL ST. JOURNAL) offers, "Many
of the employees who resigned had previously worked for tech companies,
said one of the employees who resigned. The employees had served in
roles such as engineers, data scientists, project managers and
designers. Their work had spanned the first Trump administration, the
Biden administration and the current White House, the employee said." And Josh Fiallo (DAILY BEAST) provides this context, "It
is unknown how many staffers are in the department, but those
identified have skewed young and inexperienced for such critical
government work."
Here's Rachel Maddow noting last night that DOGE can't pass basic fact checks.
The
civil service employees, housed within the United States Digital
Service — renamed the United States DOGE Service once Elon Musk took
charge — stated in the letter obtained by POLITICO that
“we swore to serve the American people and uphold our oath to the
Constitution across presidential administrations. However, it has become
clear that we can no longer honor those commitments at the United
States DOGE Service.”
“We
will not use our skills as technologists to compromise core government
systems, jeopardize Americans’ sensitive data, or dismantle critical
public services,” they continued.
In
a matter of weeks, he has fired thousands of people, thousands of
Americans. Americans who, for the record, didn't elect the South
African born racist to any office. He was not on a single ballot. But
he has no repeatedly fired people -- often, moments later, noting,
woopsie!, we shouldn't have let them go, they're over our nukes, they're
over our national parks that must open this summer, they're over this
and that. And he just fires them. It doesn't bother him. Again, this
isn't his country. He looks incompetent because he is. And that's why
people are catching on. Elena Schneider (POLITICO) observes,
"House Republicans in several red districts have already begun to face
angry constituents at town halls in recent days over the DOGE’s cuts to
the federal workforce. Clips of Republican House members being booed by
constituents at town halls went viral on social media. Anti-Musk
protesters gathered outside of congressional offices in swing districts
in Arizona, New Jersey and Pennsylvania."
The
relationship between President Donald Trump and Department of
Government Efficiency head Elon Musk could soon sour if CNN's data
expert Harry Enten's latest polls are taken seriously by the White
House.
Enten claimed Tuesday that, regardless of who they voted for, Americans overall appear to be no fans of Musk.
"If there's one person that they really don't like in the Trump admin,
it's Elon Musk and his role," Enten said, pointing out that 54% of
registered voters disapprove of Musk's actions as head of DOGE.
And
let's be clear that it's not just because Alien's firing Americans. No
the hatred for him goes far, far beyond that. There's the corruption
and the unethical deals. For example, Joey Garrison (USA TODAY) reports:
The federal agency investigating Tesla's self-driving technology has laid off about 4% of its workforce, a spokesman for the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said Monday.
The NHTSA launched a separate investigation in January of
2.6 million Teslas following crashes involving a feature that allows
drivers to move their cars remotely. That same month, the NHTSA
announced recalls of more than 230,000 Teslas over issues with certain
models' rearview cameras
And
Musk just fires them. Conflict of interest? Absolutely. But
apparently being Donald Chump's boyfriend means you don't have to follow
ethics or rules. And let's not pretend like that's the only
questionable thing going on. Chris Isidore (CNN) reports:
The
Federal Aviation Administration has agreed to use SpaceX’s Starlink
internet system to upgrade the information technology networks it uses
to manage US airspace, raising new concerns about conflicts of interest
for CEO Elon Musk in one of his other roles, that of recommending
funding cuts at federal agencies, including the FAA.
[. . .]
The
contract comes while Musk is leading efforts to make deep cuts in
federal government spending, including staffing cuts at the FAA, and
some critics are raising questions about conflicts of interest over his
role overseeing government agencies that are supposed to be regulating
his businesses.
While
Convicted Felon Donald Chump pretends there is nothing to see and no
misconduct, others can't play dumb as convincingly as Chump. Jennifer Bowers Bahney (RAW STORY) notes a reaction on TV:
CNN
pundit S.E. Cupp recounted on Tuesday how Musk "reportedly fired a
bunch of workers at the FDA that were looking at his Neuralink program"
for possible approval.
"So,
yes, he's got his hands in a lot of pots," Cupp continued. "And it's
not just that he stands to gain financially; it's that he's overseeing
agencies that are regulating his businesses, which is a little like, you
know the old saying, ... making the arsonist the fire chief — but also
head of HR, head of accounting — and then awarding him a contract for
accelerants, is kind of like what all of this is."
The
mass firings of probationary government workers roiling the federal
government are likely illegal, a federal government oversight agency
said on Monday.
The
decision comes from the Office of Special Counsel, an independent
agency that oversees illegal actions taken against federal workers, in a
case involving six probationary government workers who were fired from
their positions at six separate agencies.
That
decision, issued on Friday but not disclosed until Monday, determined
that “there are reasonable grounds to believe that agencies engaged in
prohibited personnel practices … by terminating the employees in
violation of federal laws and regulations governing probationary
terminations and reductions in force.”
Possibly
sensing that Chump doesn't have the backbone to end it with Alien by
himself, some members of his administration appear to be attempting to
help the boss out. Sean Craig (DAILY BEAST) points out:
After newly confirmed Federal Bureau of Investigations director Kash Patel told his staff over the weekend to ignore an Elon Musk-ordered demand they report to the Office of Personnel Management on their activities, another of President Donald Trump’s top MAGA allies has seemingly clashed with the White House’s billionaire lieutenant.
On
Sunday, Musk quoted a conservative user on X claiming that the United
States Agency for International Development had given tens of millions
of dollars to a list of “terrorist linked organizations.”
Special envoy Richard Grenell immediately
stepped in and questioned the veracity of the post, noting: “Some of
these groups are our partners in fighting terrorism.”
There
once was a man tight with an Oval Office occupant who was also deeply
unpopular. Erik Prince. Remember him? Blackwater mercenaries who
terrorized the Iraqi people. Blackwater was Erik Prince's company and
it was so unpopular Prince had to repeatedly change the company's name
-- to Xe Services, to Academi, to Constellis Holdings. Like a dung
beetle, Erik has long circled the anus of Donald Chump dating back to
the 2016 presidential campaign.
A
group of private military contractors have pitched an army of private
citizens to arrest immigrants and camps to detain them, according to a
proposal provided to Donald Trump's administration and reviewed by Politico.
The group, which includes former Blackwater founder Erik Prince and
former military and law enforcement officials, submitted a 26-page
blueprint to Trump advisers before his inauguration, estimating a $25
billion price tag to support the president’s “mass deportation operation” to swiftly remove 12 million people from the United States by 2026.
Prince
was also joined by Bill Mathews, another former chief operating officer
at Blackwater, the private military contractor tied to the 2007 massacre of 17 Iraqi civilians, including two children, which also wounded 20 others. The four men convicted of crimes surrounding the killings were pardoned by Trump in 2020.
The
founder and former CEO of the military contractor Blackwater pitched
the White House a plan to deport nearly 500,000 undocumented immigrants
per month before the 2026 midterm elections.
Erik Prince was
part of a group of prominent contractors and former immigration
officials who submitted an unsolicited proposal to help make good on
President Donald Trump’s signature campaign promise to deport millions of immigrations, Politico reported.
Their
26-page plan calls for using mass deportation hearings, military
“processing camps,” a fleet of 100 private planes and a 10,000-strong
private police to forcibly remove 12 million immigrants by November
2026.
It
wasn’t clear if Trump had personally seen the report, but it has been
circulating among his advisers since before the inauguration, Politico
reported. Since then, Trump has purged top officials at Immigration and Customs Enforcement after they failed to meet his targets.
Nicholas Liu (SALON) adds, "Even
if implemented, the plan faces significant legal hurdles, experts told
Politico. Recommendations likely to face legal challenges include a call
to form a screening team of 2,000 lawyers to refer people to mass
deportation hearings; create a public database of people summoned to
those hearings'; sponsor a bounty program for local police departments;
and deputize 10,000 private citizens with federal law enforcement
powers."
We'll wind down with this from Senator Patty Murray's office:
Murray: “There is simply no way to realize the trillions in cuts they are calling for without kicking kids and families off Medicaid.”
Washington, D.C. — Today, at Senate Democrats’
weekly press conference, U.S. Senator Patty Murray (D-WA), Vice Chair of
the Senate Appropriations Committee, spoke about ongoing government
funding talks and Republicans’ budget resolution that will be considered
on the House floor tonight, which gives billionaires—like President
Trump and Elon Musk—a tax break at the expense of working families’
health care and so many other programs they count on.
Senator Murray’s remarks, as delivered, are below:
“On Sunday, the leader of the Republican Party, Elon Musk, tweeted that he thought a government shutdown would be, quote: ‘great.’
“That’s one totally out-of-touch billionaire who needs a serious reality check. Elon may never depend on receiving benefits on time, but for everyone else, shutdowns are painful and costly.
“Democrats, however, do not want a shutdown. We are at the table, negotiating in good faith to fund the government.
“But Republicans are the majority—in the House and in the Senate. If they want our votes, they need to work with
us. We are close on topline spending, but we need to know Republicans
are willing to work with us to protect Congress’ power of the purse—and I
welcome any and all ideas they may have on how we can work together to do just that.
“That is the absolute bare minimum—and it is frankly not asking a whole lot. Republicans
should not be so eager to let Elon Musk cut off cancer research or
clean energy jobs in their districts. They should not follow Elon towards a shutdown.
“Now, even though March 14th is just around the
corner, Republicans aren’t really focused on funding the government—and
that’s because their number one priority is passing more tax cuts for
billionaires.
“Here in the Senate, last Friday, just before 5 AM, Republicans
rammed through their pro-billionaire, anti-middle class budget
blueprint.
“Possibly as soon as tonight in the House, Republicans are
planning
to do even worse. To pass their massive tax giveaways for billionaires,
Republicans are going to defund Medicaid, slash veterans’ benefits, and
force kids to go hungry.
“And I want to be clear: the congressional districts with the highest
enrollment for Medicaid in my state are represented by Republicans.
“There is simply no way to realize the trillions in
cuts they are calling for without kicking kids and families off
Medicaid. They are cutting health care for the children they represent
to cut taxes for billionaires.
“Hurting kids—making it so a child can’t see a doctor—to give Elon
Musk a tax break he doesn’t need? If that’s the path Republicans want
to go down, then I am going to make sure everyone knows it.
“To the American people, now’s the time to tune in to C-SPAN.
“Now is the time to give your Republican Congressman an earful.
“Now is the time to text your family group chat.
“Now is the time to do everything we possibly can to protect health care for our kids and families.
“Every American should understand their story and their voice will
make a difference in this fight. Congress needs to hear you—so my advice
is to get loud.
“I will be using my voice and my vote to make sure
kids can see a doctor and to make sure kids don’t go hungry. I’ll be
voting no to give billionaires more tax cuts while kicking kids off
their health care.”
