I hope Democrats are brainstorming ways to use their new majorities to enact common-sense reforms, such as requiring Elon Musk to pull every single American around Central Park in a carriage like he's a widdle horsie

Accountability is the exact word the US needs to show now
Show the world that corruption on the highest level is not accepted and that there are consequences following these actions otherwise what is the point
People in charge and powerful people should be held MORE accountable compared to the average person
They have a lot more resources to make sure they don't fuck up yet often they go the other way
No more

No word on what voters have been saying to soon-to-be-Speaker Jeffries.
Jeffries on Wednesday dismissed the idea, however, that Democrats would impeach the president, as some liberals want to do.
“I haven’t had a single member of the House Democratic Caucus talk to me about impeachment,” he said. “We’ve been relentlessly focused on affordability, and on accountability.”

"This clip shows: #HakeemJeffries🚨isn't right for the moment +reminds us: the allegedly liberal cable net has a 3-hr AM show hosted by a fmr Gingrich R.
Maybe MSNOW⚡should think about revamping its own lineup to give viewers & voters what they want."

"The American people don't want us to get even; they want us to get things done on their behalf."
Jeffries *now poised to become the next #House Spk, says: #Democrats will focus on affordability concerns &🚨not retribution."

Seeing videos of Minnesotans placing their "I Voted" stickers on the memorial to the victims murdered by ICE broke me this morning.

There are a lot of things Dems should do for the next two years, but one of the most important is to pass bills that we need even if Trump vetoes them. Make the GOP publicly vote against what people actually want over and over, against the bills and against overriding Trump's vetoes. Then the Dem presidential candidate in 2028 can point at all the bills and say "Congress will pass all these laws again when I'm president, and I'll sign them all." And then they should do that too.

Democrats had a historic victory across our country in a Blue Tsunami that was a crushing, generational rebuke to Trump and the entire corrupt GOP. This was possible because of you - your votes, your calls, your campaigning, your donations, your involvement in your community. You did this, you delivered it, you own it.

Dems⚡cracked the code on winning the South. OH/IA are back to swing state status. The Democratic Party💙is reborn.
#JDVance bet on MAGA's cultural ascendance⚡in ruins.
#Democrats💡made huge inroads into the South, won a Sen seat in the Great Plains, & reached deep into the parts of the Midwest: we all thought #Trump had turned permanently red.
"A GENERATIONAL SHIFT💙-clarity of message & steadfastness of purpose: AES in MI, Talarico in TX, & Ossoff in GA."

Change comes from the people and then starts at the top. Elect new leaders. We don’t want the old ones. Contact your reps, especially the new ones. I have a new one, which I can hardly believe.
