No forgiveness, no amnesty, no recociliation.
No kumbaya.
Scorched earth.
Dismantle the GOP so not a single stone stands upon stone.
Sow salt in the fields. Poison the wells.
Trumplando delenda est.
During battle, General Grant said, “no terms except an unconditional and immediate surrender can be accepted.”
We offer the same terms to President Trump today.

Marco Rubio wanted this. I'm running to save Roe. And I'm running to win.

True? Now let those companies commit to relocating as much as possible to state that protect citizens' rights regarding magical decisions, personal relationships, and voting rights. Make it a recruiting issue.
Companies committing to cover travel expenses for abortions, or out-of-state health care:
Amazon
Amex
Apple
BofA
Biogen
Cigna
Citigroup
Deutsche Bank
Dick's

If the Dems would commit to organizing massive registration drives with an army of volunteers, the midterms would be an extinction event for the GOP. Stop ducking g marching & tweeting! Register new voters— and destroy the GOP forever!
And this is indeed where the seeds of the end of the GOP begins. Of course it requires registration and education but the timing has given us the opportunity to create turnout in November that will change America. Under 30 voters need to know their lives depend on this!

The fact that media organizations are instructing employees not to make public comments about the elimination of a fundamental constitutional right for 50% of the population tells you why the modern media is not capable of helping protect democracy from what is happening.

Pediatrician here. This isn't about babies, because if it were, we'd support kids & families with health care, high-quality education, universal child care, reliable housing, access to healthy food. This is about controlling women's bodies.

In 2yr, Ds could be maj in House/Senate and in WH. Could be enough Senate D's to end filibuster. Forced birth govs could be out of office. Justices will lose lifetime tenure. Fundamental rights protected by statute if need be. That's it. If you want that, work toward that goal.

Please amplify this message. This should be the plenary target. You won't convert anyone but there are millions and millions of votes out there we've traditionally left on the table.
In 2020 election, 27% of voting age citizens weren't registered to vote. Of voting age citizens, 1/3--77M--didn't vote. The age group that really has the most to gain or lose by election outcome--18-29--had lowest voting rate, w/almost half eligible not voting.

They had to pull out something big to distract people from the hearings, but if you know the authoritarian playbook, taking away reproductive rights and trying to steal elections are linked. So they will only make us more determined.
24 hours ago we were talking about the amazing progress the January 6 Cmte was making. There were reports people in Trump's orbit were concerned about the strength of the evidence. We absolutely must not forget that.

Get every college student you know educated in the tools of registering their contemporaries. Their lives depend on this and many still haven't registered and haven't voted. They have more skin in the game than those of us who actually remember life before Roe.
Persuading the unpersuadable is a fool’s errand. There are millions of unregistered voters in America today. Most of these are Democrats by inclination. Register them and the GOP will experience an extinction event. Registering voters is hard and unsexy work. But it works.

Vote, of course, but I 100% disagree, my friend, that people shouldn't push to expand the SCt. The number 9 isn't sacrosanct. Before it was chosen in 1869, it had changed 6 times. And now we've had 9 justices for 150 yrs, tho we've added 13 states, 4 circuits & 300M more people.
So many tweets from otherwise intelligent people about expanding the court— a fantasy that has ZERO chance of happening. Focus on getting rightfully enraged women to VOTE, instead.

An outrageous, backwards looking decision, but the answer is to channel that outrage forward. 34 members of the body who confirmed these justices are up for reelection in 136 days.

Thread. A cautionary thought: the GOP can read polls. They *know* that a solid majority of Americans intensely oppose them on abortion, gun control and insurrection (to name but a few). They know these are big losers, in national electoral terms. Yet they persist.

That call I made that Collins, even more than anyone else, was the last straw for me in the GOP looking pretty on target right now.
What Brett Kavanaugh told Susan Collins before he was confirmed to the court, according to notes taken by multiple Collins staffers in their meeting.
