I didn't check the play bill, but I assume Chuck Schumer will be playing the part of Estragon and Dick Durbin will be playing Vladimir in this production?
"meant as a symbolic protest of Trump's political takeover of the Kennedy Center."
John Hickenlooper, D-Colo.Sens. Tammy Baldwin of Wisconsin, Jacky Rosen of Nevada, Brian Schatz of Hawaii and Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts.
Nice gesture
our LGBTQ people need all the support they can get as they are under attack by the right
but wondering how they're gonna get to use the stage in the Trumpistan Center
ICE will prob man the doors
&there's looming large the specter of this Authoritarian Gov takeover
Dems !do more
Of all the insane things he's done, stacking the board at the fuckin Kennedy Center, I had literally forgotten about cause it doesn't seem that important compared to pretty much anything else on the list
We often talk about how the magas wind up saying ridiculous things because they’re too locked in to social media microcosms and memes but the worst impact of social media is the erosion of ability to discern symbolic acts from material ones and the democrats are full to bursting with this.
They were hollowed out in the late 80s and early 90s to act as a friendlier face on extractive capitalism. Now that billionaires have captured all of America's institutions, that facade is no longer needed.
The same Sen Padilla who proceeded to vote in favor of the crypto deregulation Bill that got praised to high heavens by Trump? Yeah, I think there's ample reason to say the dems don't fight.
1. Nobody deserves death for mere uselessness and I don't think anyone is remotely implying otherwise.
2. Uselessness of the leaders (and even the party as a whole) doesn't mean there aren't a few decent exceptions, and those are obviously *more* likely to be targeted by the regime.
So tired of Dem bashing. Rather than bash - do something about it. Perhaps if more democrats voted in 2024 rather than bash them - we would not be in the minority and in control.
It’s because of these Democratic theatrics that were fucked
@schumer.senate.gov @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social step the fuck aside and let some real leaders lead like Chris Murphy or AOC or fucking anybody
This Democrat is sick to fucking death of shit and you’re doing nothing but wringing hands
Haha, the hard cut to a brief second of Andre Braugher at the end with the dialog “How are you doing…” makes it seem like it’s a 😬 reaction to what we just saw
That season of House is the first thing I ever saw LMM in and I therefore always associate him with that character. I think it was my favorite season of the show.
That single word sentence, "No." Right in the feels. A real cringe, not this fake I'm so cool that's cringe. Like my shoulders wrench in, my eyes narrow and a barely audible sigh of disgust slips out.
"but we're going to show them!" ...you're using your own money right? "hahahahahahaha....no. no. no. we're using taxpayer money. but it sure shows the president!"

what is wrong with these asshole Dems
They're about to start shipping people grabbed on US soil to 3rd world countries and the dems want to throw a play.
Last week, Sens. Warnock, Shaheen, Hassan, Fetterman, Whitehouse, and Welch voted for Trump nominees.

I expect this will be somehow more toothless than that scene
But stunts like these don’t inspire much confidence in these Democrats as legislators or political leaders, do they?
They tried that, but the letter was probably not strong enough...
mentioning that for no reason
warren
