@Bellison22 The last person we want in charge of the House is a Trump Mini-me. 🔥
“It is an extraordinary instance of Republican-on-Republican fighting that underscores the divisions that have wrought chaos inside the party, paralyzing the House…in the process. Several of Mr. Jordan’s supporters have posted the phone numbers of mainstream G.O.P. lawmakers they count as holdouts, encouraging followers to flood the Capitol switchboard with calls demanding they back Mr. Jordan or face the wrath of conservative voters as they gear up for primary season.”

@StefanEJones @georgetakei This in a nutshell. They have to start losing.
@georgetakei It won't happen without us.
The GOP's extremism needs to start losing it elections before they change.
We need to get people registered, informed, and inspired. We need to help out with campaigns. And help get out the vote . . . every race on every election day.

@w7voa Biden is wasting his breath, Netanyahu does not care at all about innocents or civilians and knows very well the US will do nothing no matter what he does.
This afternoon, President Biden spoke with Palestinian Authority President Abbas and "reiterated that Hamas does not stand for the Palestinian people’s right to dignity and self-determination."
LAWSUIT TO PROTECT ARCTIC ICE SEALS
The #CenterForBiologicalDiversity filed a notice of intent to sue #NOAA Fisheries for failing to grant recovery plans for bearded and ringed #seals. Thanks to the Center's work, they won #EndangeredSpeciesAct protection in 2012 — but the agency still hasn't given them a recovery plan (which the Act requires).
