This would be a whole lot easier if Congress just fought it out fisticuffs style. Beat the shit out of each other and then come back to the table and see who's serious about passing legitimate legislature for America?
WHAT YOU ARE SEEING HERE IS """ A WHITE MAN TRYING TO ABUSE A BLACK MAN = DO NOT BE FOOLED - WATCH THE STANCE OF THE " SPEAKER " AND DO NOT BE FOOLED ANYMORE !!!
DO THIS BOY ` yea about THAT
They haven’t done anything but send strongly worded letters. We shouldn’t thank them. That bill passed and they didn’t put up a single procedural challenge
I am not ridiculous. There are procedural methods the democrats can and should take to muck up every step of the republicans. And they should be all over alternative media
And the stupid fuck says, yeah I understand. I understand no you don’t understand you don’t give a fuck. He’s an asshole. The chair is an asshole. I can go fuck himself!
Well done and ramp it up @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social Hey @schumer.senate.gov you need to step down. You're feckless & impotent. @chrismurphyct.bsky.social @vanhollen.senate.gov @smith.senate.gov @klobuchar.senate.gov It's time to call a vote. We DO NOT want him as Speaker.
How many times do basic civics need to be taught! Democrats can doing nothing but scream into the void, because Republicans won the majority in both houses!
Rep. Womack(R) told Jeffries to direct his comments to the chair rather than referring to Rs as “you.” Jeffries claimed he was not being given the same treatment as Scalise (R), who gave his own extended speech. Jeffries said he’d add 15 minutes to his remarks every interruption.
These are the “balls” we need from every Dem rep right now. Not written down. Not practiced/memorized feigned outrage. We need it personally felt & clearly communicated. This is YOUR daughter/mom/grandmother/country getting taxed/booted from Medicare etc. Get mad as hell. We’re not gonna take it!
Mr Speaker said like a slave owner and then quickly backed down. But they will try again. They fully intend to take everyone but white men out of government. No minorities, no blacks, no women. It’s coming.
Just barely. We lost on the big beautiful bullshit bill because 3 democratic house members died. This has to change. Term limits or resign if you are too sick to serve. We lose every time and it seems it is self inflicted
Actually Jeffries is doing a good job under the circumstances. You should have thought of that at the voting booth among the tens of millions who didn’t vote.
And frankly I don’t think the democrats should play nice anymore either. They should play by the rules just harder
Also it’s the dems fault anyway. Merrick garland let the ball drop so bad we may never hear the end of the crashing
Take a page out of Springsteen and Harvard. They doubled down because they didn’t do anything wrong. All these people respect is strength, because they are bullies, and bullies are cowards b
Law firms cave, Amazon caves, if everyone said No this would not happen to begin with. Not enough people have the courage. They put dollars over ethics
Yup. Springsteen, Neil Young and Pearl Jam recently spoke up. People and institutions like Harvard are fighting. Jeffries clapped back. And I think he did good. The point right now is reach out to the people like AOC and Sanders and hold town meetings and keep reaching out to the people.
Look, I don’t need videos or links or whatever. We are in this mess why? The people in this country had a choice right?
Trump or Harris. These people who didn’t vote or voted for Trump are the problem. Now that we are here because of them. It’s that simple.
Things dems can do -well presented way better than any talking points I can give. Me dumb American. If you took 15 mins to watched you’d get why I posted it.
I’m not disagreeing with you but you asked what can they do and I answered. You ignored it
That to me speaks volumes why we are here
Democrats should be holding "What happened today" in DAILY NEWS CONFERENCES. An astonishing number of Americans are willfully, purposely, adamantly ignorant.
I love how Hakeem showed him. Of course, he's fking "direct!" American people want direct, they want actions, & NOT pussyfooting around with their livelihood.
All of a sudden he grew a pair. Must have seen the poll that shows AOC is the leader of the party. Last I heard from Hakeem he was saying "what do you want me to do?"
Big words, but other than sitting on the stairs and telling the GOP that they can't talk down to you, what have you done for the American people other than cancel your very poorly time to book tour?
Too little, too late. Trump is essentially done overthrowing this government. Way to fucking go America! Way to fucking go! I have never been so disappointed or sad. We are done now.
Jasmine Crockett is good, but AOC actually ran for the spot. Why shouldn't she get another crack at it? Polling now shows she leads the pack among Dem voters as the leader of this party now (as well she should).
HERE HERE !!! REPUBLICANS ASSHOLES ,.. REMINDING YOU ALL ,..YOU WORK FOR US THE GOOD AMERICAN PEOPLE ,.. THE STRUGGLING WORKING CLASS MIDDLE CLASS AMERICANS !! THAT MEAN YOU DON'T CUT US OUT IN OUR NEEDS !!!!
The main problem with our country is the fact to many Americans have the memory of a goldfish. While some are just plain racist. Still others listening to far to much hear say without ever checking the facts. Even some others are so weak minded they will believe anything and can be easily conned.
Nice of him to acknowledge that now, even after him and establishment dems open their palms to the sky and say "what power do we have? I'm trying to think what power do we really have?"
pompous theatrics don't get it done, but I'm sure many fall for this. Have no expectations. No wonder they left our country in peril, left a maniac on the loose
I don’t care about the Crypto shit right now. That bill containing Medicare, Medicaid and SALT among the other things is more important for most people. SMH
Without a majority, what exactly do you expect him to do? I keep reading that the Dems should do more, but no one ever seems to specify the specific actions.
You're so right! When you're the minority, there's little to do, except bitch. We MUST Take Back the House and the Senate! VOTE the bastards out, or, we'll be in Civil War!
I do not want civil war, but in the face of this monstrous take over, I can only HOPE there's enough gumption, to vote OUT the REPUBLICANS, in BOTH, the House and the Senate. If we don't, then......
Everyone has a responsibility to fight fascism and contribute to the wellbeing of their community and society. The community and society has a reciprocal responsibility towards each individual.
Define ‘American people’ please. I’ll wait, because the people Jeffries seems to be working for are that group that is so insulated from the ish rushing toward us at break neck speed that they are only academically concerned about what is going on.
"I work for the American ppl." Great, now go act like it, sir. B/c so far you keep letting us down by NOT FIGHTING and admonishing the Dems that are (like Al Green and the others who disrupted that pathetic "state of the union" address, or voting in Connelly over AOC for Over Sight head etc.).
They need to win the house in the next election. You making it sound easy. Rep Green did a great thing but he was tossed out during the State of the Union speech.
It is easy, if they actually do what ppl are asking them. We have a worse approval rating than the Rs do right now DESPITE all the terrible things they are doing, so reaching across the aisle etc. obviously ain't it. Make good trouble, stymie the Rs every way you can. THAT'S what ppl want right now.
Purists don’t understand that he is busy working phones to convince GOP reps in purple districts, holding the caucus together, and trying to determine legislative strategy while he lets others like Crockett and AOC and Casar and Frost get out there with the spotlight.
Oh please, one of the first things he did was go to the tech billionaires, hat in hand after the election, asking them to pls support Dems again. NO! We need to be the anti-billionaire party, period. Stay away from the tech broligarchs and modern day robber barons. 🙄
And, there is no legislative strategy right now to be had. There's no working with fascists. Just try and hold up the Rs and make them miserable to come to work, that's what they should be doing right now.
And who said that the word "groceries" yes, "groceries" is such an old fashioned word. What? Oh, yeah, he's never bought groceries or made his own meal in his life. He's always, always been served his meals and never has had to clean up. Even on J6 when he threw food at the wall in WH!!
Step two: don’t be brainwashed into thinking @schumer.senate.gov and old guard DNC @democrats.org @democrats.senate.gov @housedemocrats.bsky.social @democrats.org are on your side.
They aren’t. They get paid by the same lobbyists as MAGA.
So what’s the solution here? Do you to divide instead of uniting? And this is a huge part the reason why Frump won. We can agree to disagree and that’s ok but we really need to unite regardless.
And I am a huge fan of the Meiselas brothers.
I mentioned the solution in our original reply. Maybe stop and think and fully read before commenting. That’s why Frump is in office: no one takes time to read.
Furthermore, there is no solidarity when old guard DNC democrats break rank to pass cabinet nominees and CR bills.
People like that exist to divide. They’re Murc’s law superspreaders. As long as enough people fall for that horseshit, republicans have a much easier bar to clear.
I call them the political equivalent of bitching about a stubbed toe while a shark tears their arms off.
It's time for some fist fighting in the chamber! Remember those videos of it happening in other countries and you saying, wow! that couldn't happen here. Well.....I wish it would! We need to punch back!!!
It seems like the Republicans forgot who they work for and how they got to where they're at if it wasn't for the American people they'd be sitting at home twiddling their God damn thumbs
No. Thompson was evil. It still doesn’t give that dumb kid the right to kill. Where the heck did you get that dumb idea? You Mangione fanatics are beyond dumb.
And this is why only your Beta Brothers echo chambers will even take your shit seriously. Nobody that’s sane will. I hope Mangione goes to jail if he is convicted.
He’s popular to a the Beta community. You are not the majority who feels otherwise even if Thompson was evil. Get out of here. The Bulwark you cannot handle.

Step down Jeffries and let a real fighter take over.
DO THIS BOY ` yea about THAT
Just self defense.
We need someone who can convince Republicans to find their balls.
It's not Hakim.
But wait... hasn't Mayor Pete made them choke on their own rhetoric?
Let's have a real leader after we retake the House:
What is that going to do?
Every time,Every hour, Every Day!
Saying your part of "the club" without saying it.
Like it or not, this will get clicks and views.
If every single one of them did what he did, we'd be in a much better place. Make Republicans sweat every time a Democrat steps up to a mic.
You know Pinball? Tilt them. Make them turn the mics off.
POWER TO THE PEOPLE!!!
"Sir" wasn't necessary
F you maggot cult members!
He's a dinosaur that thinks the old ways are the right ways.
I'll take this intravenously please. Thanks.
The only way to defeat bullies is to stand up to them.
Also it’s the dems fault anyway. Merrick garland let the ball drop so bad we may never hear the end of the crashing

Way to clap back @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social
Bravo!! 👏👏
Love it!
What are they good for?!?
Then voting in Rubio wasn’t cool but who else?
More of that please
Fires me up!!
Republican Congress 🎪

Gotta hold them accountable in primaries.
It's the Corporate News media has taken a knee to Trump and keep that info from you.
If they do anything whatsoever that's more than I think, so I guess your point stands
Thank you! 👍
If you don’t think some democrats are compromised, you are willfully ignorant.
We can actually fight fascism within the Democratic Party while we fight it in the Republican Party and country at large.
In fact, we MUST.
And I am a huge fan of the Meiselas brothers.
