KEEP CALLING: (202) 224-3121 ☎️☎️☎️ Tell your Dem Senator to vote NO on Cloture and NO on the Republican spending bill. Do NOT assume your Senator will be good on this. Trust me.
- I think the TL:DR is, 'Let's just not do this': "Team Trump’s sycophants somehow seem to believe that the Canadians would surrender quickly & quietly. They have never been to a hockey game. If this all sounds...familiar, it is because that is the exact plan...Putin had for his invasion of Ukraine."
