Mic drop after mic drop in this piece by @davidoatkins.bsky.social, who has managed to convince me that Martin really is walking the walk on reform. Weak on comms and management? Yup. But also real changes that piss off all the right people. Thus, hit pieces. washingtonmonthly.com/2026/07/31/t...
The Case for the DNC’s Ken Martin. Really.
Martin is being excoriated, but he’s taking on the consultant class, building a strong grassroots operation, and raising tons of money.

Interesting article written by an old friend and current DNC member @davidoatkins.bsky.social, that does a great job going behind the curtain about what is really at stake in the DNC battle going on right now: washingtonmonthly.com/2026/07/31/t...

Hostage taking again: Instead of sitting down to negotiate as Democratic House and Senate leaders offered, Trump administration issued this threat. Unfortunately, we all have seen if you give a bully your lunch money he comes back for a Kimmel. www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

Trump hates penguins…most logical conclusion from Trump’s tariffs of Antarctic territories without populations.
Senator Cory Booker @corybookerusa.bsky.social has now been filibustering on the Senator floor for over 17 hrs 20 min against what Trump, Musk, & Republicans in Congress are doing. Longest filibuster ever was 24 hrs 18 min by segregationist Strom Thurmond. You can watch on C-SPAN 2. Inspiring!
Winning on April 1 would secure the liberal majority on the Wisconsin Supreme Court for the 2026 and 2028 elections. That’s why Elon Musk is spending millions on this race. We need your help to elect Susan Crawford and stop a MAGA takeover of a battleground state: www.mobilize.us/indivisible/...
I have been a fan of Schumer for years, but he has to step down as Leader. He doesn’t get ignoring a Congressional appropriations is a Constitutional Crisis and we are at the moment when democracy is on the line. He is fundamentally unprepared to protect democracy as we are in the moment of crisis.
Call House & Senate members to say it is unacceptable to pass any appropriations bill that will just be violated like current one is violated. Until Constitutional Crisis caused by violations of appropriations is resolved to oppose by all means at their disposal passage of new appropriations bill.
Trump and Musk’s illegal spending freeze has already setback critical research for cancer treatments.
NIH funding freeze stalls applications on $1.5 billion in medical research funds

I think Dems should consider doing hearings of their own outside of Congress. Rent hotel ballrooms, bring our own witnesses, make our big arguments, get stuff on the record. Early topics - illegal/unconstitutional disassembly of US govt, Trump selling out to Putin, his reckless econ policies.
Russia First agenda on full display. Disgusting, but utterly predictable.
Note to businesses: I am taking note of who has sales today to try to get people to buy things rather than support the national protest against what Musk & Trump are doing to our country. Your sale makes comes across as trying to undermine our struggle to preserve democracy. It isn’t a good look
Let’s face it. Getting rid of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion is to make way for less qualified white men to take positions they don’t deserve.

Make your calls. Go to your town halls. Ask your state and local officials what they are doing under state and local law. Rest. Hydrate. Make soup for the hungry. Don’t let people tell you that you’re doing it wrong. Not a sprint. Not a marathon. A relay. Find your team. Thank you.
