Fun Fact: Senator Slotkin is giving the Democratic response to SOTU from Wyandotte, Michigan. Wyandotte is the name of a breed of chickens. Subtle dig at Trump over the price of eggs or coincidence?

This response right here is what is wrong with Dems. You saw her give a speech and she’s anointed. Please. Ask Michiganders about her. I, for one, do not agree with her Moderate Republican views.
What a wet dishrag. She acts like norms and checks and balances still exist. The judiciary isn’t going to save us. When are Ds going to call for a general strike? Call a Frenchman. They know what to do.
1/ Would be perfectly appropriate, since @slotkin.senate.gov was chosen only in part cuz of Trump's foreign policy lurch on behalf of the country from NATO support to RUSSIA support.
But I think she was chosen also for her in-your-face centrism, a last gasp of the Dem establishment.
Is it easy to raise chickens...and do they lay eggs every day on their own? How old before they start laying? How much does it cost to have a chicken...and what are the expenses? Is one enough or do you need a pack? (just curious)
I think so too. I’m plan to watch how she votes before I make a decision. It’s no small feat to get elected in Michigan as a Dem now. given how polarized people are now, a few years ago she would be considered a solid dem. she’s respected in MI, she’s smart, and speaks so working people understand.
Tired of the egg prices conversation by Democrats. Discussion should be about what is being done about the H5N1 virus. H5N1 updates are needed, especially since info is being withheld under Trump.
Vance you are the BEST, learned a great amount of information from you being part of the MSNBC team!👍🏼
The time for subtle intellectual digs is over. They need to get clear and loud and consistently demonstrate the seriousness of this moment. I don’t see that factoid being written in history books as a worthy or relevant protest.
I thought the same thing I had a Golden Wyandotte named Bernadette.I laughed about the government official who said people could have their own chickens.I guess city folk in apartments can just go jump in the lake.You know they only care about the people they think voted 4 them not all Americans.
My local news channel, WFMZ, covering Lehigh Valley and Berks County in PA, is not showing the Democratic response. Unfortunately, these areas are MAGA. WFMZ likes to keep them ignorant.
She's a staid, fair-haired, right-of-center Democrat with white skin. I'd say the dig is aimed at the most loyal Democratic voters -- Back women -- whom the Democratic leadership desperately wants to pretend don't exist.
Egg prices will come down when the bird flu thing is over. That will be this year. Trump will give himself the Medal of Freedom. So we need to stop talking about it and talk about the price of everything else going up.
Actually, we were told to get chickens to get through the egg crisis.
No assistance. No help with coops, feed, HOAs. Just get an F’n chicken by f’n privileged white ladies 🫤
Trump will never, ever understand that dig. After all, he has never heard of Lesotho. Although it is true that Trump is more informed than Sen. Tommy Tuberville, that provides absolutely no evidence that he isn’t dumb as a rock.
Even if it’s on purpose, very few will get it, and to be honest, I really don’t have confidence in a response from someone who voted to confirm some of the worst of Trumps cabinet nominees.
And I told her so. I also said I was sorry that I voted for her. Her office's response was that they get a lot of letters. I was upset but she is 100 times better than Trump sycophant Mike Rogers would have been.
I dunno, but that sure is a pretty chicken! Look at the blue! And also hello from Michigan! Sorry we went for Trump this time, but also yay us for Elissa Slotkin?
Gotta say the emotional support chickens and the new puppy are saving my days. Civil Discourse in my in box is always a treat. Carry on. We are in this together.
Had to be said…the worst part was they asked constituents 2 do more. Republicans have Leonard Leo, project 2025. We can’t find a message/strategy that gets the 89 mil people who stayed home this election to the polls. We are not going to be able to protest or town hall our way 2 success.

She's snarking.

She ain't ...
😆 🤣 😂
We need representatives that aren't passive - follow Al Green's lead. Be vocal, stand up and turn around or walk out.
trump, phfffft!
