AOC’s Message To Trump: It’s Not If We Impeach, It’s Which Charges We File

Plus CBS News suffers rating collapse, worker goes viral for confronting Trump, and Dems push for ICE agent’s arrest

Thanks for being here. I’m glad to bring you today’s news brief, because it shows that the resistance is not only alive, it’s fighting back and gaining momentum. To harness this energy, we’re taking a massive step forward by launching our Midterm Accountability Project.

We aren’t just reporting on the chaos, we’re building the infrastructure to end it.

We have no corporate influence or billionaire backers here—just amazing people like you. Our independence is what allows us to report the truth while pushing back against this regime as hard as we do. So if you haven’t yet, please upgrade to a paid subscription today to help fuel our fight:

MAMDANI AND JAMES JOIN STRIKE

Around 15,000 fired-up New York City-area nurses went on strike—the largest nursing strike in the city’s history.

Mayor Zohran Mamdani joined them, stating: “These nurses are here for New Yorkers. They show up and all they are asking for in return is dignity, respect, and the fair pay and treatment that they deserve.”

NY AG Letitia James also spoke, declaring: “If these hospitals have money to hire scabs, then they’ve got money and resources to address the needs of these nurses.”

Nearly 20 years ago, nurses helped save my life. They are some of the hardest-working people out there—they deserve everything they’re asking for, and more.

RATINGS PLUMMET FOR CBS NEWS

According to new ratings, CBS Evening News is now down 23% compared to last year. That might have something to do with them trying to become their own version of Fox “News.” Or the fact they’re operating like state-sponsored media.

The program’s new host, Tony Dokoupil, recently did a ridiculous interview with Trump that turned into an outright propaganda session. And Dokoupil was steamrolled by Trump in the worst way.

At one point, Trump told him: “You wouldn’t have a job right now … If [Kamala Harris] got in,” implying he was personally responsible for the hire.

HIS NAME IS TJ SABULA

Earlier this week, Trump was doing a photo-op at a Ford plant, when worker TJ Sabula shouted: “Pedophile protector!” Trump responded with a “f**k you” and a middle finger. Classy.

Sabula was later suspended without pay after a video of the encounter went viral. “Definitely no regrets whatsoever,” Sabula said. “I don’t feel as though fate looks upon you often, and when it does, you better be ready to seize the opportunity—and today I think I did that.” Absolutely. As I’ve always said—if you have a platform, use it.

The United Auto Workers union says they will fight for Sabula, and two GoFundMe pages have raised more than $800,000 to support him and his family.

DEMS PUSH FOR ARREST

Rep. Ro Khanna is one of several Democratic lawmakers who are calling for the arrest and prosecution of the ICE agent who killed Renee Nicole Good. Khanna is also behind a bill with Rep. Jasmine Crockett that aims “to force ICE agents to wear body cameras, not wear masks, have visible identification, and ensure ICE has independent oversight.”

Crockett called out her Republican colleagues directly, stating: “Can y’all not just have a little bit of courage and humanity? A child has lost her mom and y’all want to pretend that it is OK.”

And Sen. Ruben Gallego spoke plainly about Good’s killing: “They literally murdered an American. What happened that day was absolute murder and that ICE officer should be in jail.”

AOC ON IMPEACHING TRUMP

Dem Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez slammed Trump’s immigration abuses this week, stating: “I want everybody to understand, the cuts to your health care are what’s paying for this … You get screwed over to pay a bunch of thugs in the street that are shooting mothers in the face.”

Regarding impeaching Trump, AOC didn’t hold back: “The criminality of what we’ve been seeing from this administration is quite clear,” adding there are a “litany” of impeachable acts.

When asked if Trump has committed impeachable acts, AOC shook her head yes and said: “Absolutely. Absolutely. Without a shadow of a doubt. Starting from the very beginning with the seizure of funds that are mandated, I think that line has been crossed.”

AOC is spot on. Trump is using the dictator’s playbook and he thinks no one can stop him. That’s why we launched our Midterm Accountability Project.

Last year, we squashed maga propaganda and dominated the narrative online by generating billions of impressions on the largest social media platforms. All while driving half a million contacts to lawmakers—demanding they stand up to this unhinged regime.

Now, we are building off of that momentum to take away Trump’s power for good—but we can’t do it without your help.

We are completely free of corporate influence—with no ads and no billionaire bosses. And we intend to stay that way. So please, help fuel our fight by upgrading to a paid subscription today:

Onward!
