"Tea party"? Seriously?

ceylene.bsky.social•22 hours ago

I'm never gonna stop advocating for the breaking up of the executive branch as well.
I want the heads of most departments elected and some others appointed by Congress, with the president having the sole role of foreign affairs.

boobiewankanoobie.bsky.social•21 hours ago

Except that this president is horrible at foreign affairs.

nanapatp.bsky.social•20 hours ago

Yes!! This is what needs to happen! Rise up!!

Now, if only the Democratic Party can get out of the way of Democrats when might have a chance.

Democrats need to have town halls in red districts

stjohn75.bsky.social•20 hours ago

As I’ve said before, the Tea Party wasn’t a movement but an astroturf.

jayme9.bsky.social•18 hours ago

Every Democratic senator and House of Representative member need 2 go to Republican counterparts areas and do Townhall meetings. They should be on a bullhorn day and night screaming about what’s going on and what they’re doing about it. They need to be obnoxious about it so it’s heard by EVERYONE!

lovingkindness730.bsky.social•20 hours ago

I assume no republicans on stage?

auntiet.bsky.social•47 minutes ago

Jahana Hayes & Murphy/Blumenthal (CT) had well-attended town halls. Indivisible groups popping up all over the state. Over 100 people attended the one in my area earlier this week. Almost daily, albeit small, protests. Yesterday was Whole Foods. Today Tesla.

yonatanlibbie.bsky.social•20 hours ago

Support every Democrat doing this sort of outreach to ruby red areas. Turn your back on dems flailing around behind DC podiums begging for money.

Just wish we could fast forward past the gregarious town halls and land at wrecking balls taking out White House walls, removing the Nazis.

carimom087.bsky.social•22 hours ago

Democrats need to have town halls everywhere - even in Republican districts. The only way to combat the disinformation is to get the communication out to the public. The MSM won’t do it for us.

joshuaeakle.com•22 hours ago

Great idea.

kevinleecaster.bsky.social•22 hours ago

Since y'all feel free to tell other people what to do, I'll do the same.

The people on BlueSky need to start boosting the posts from our elected Democrats more than they try to order them around telling them what they want them to do.

allensmithee.bsky.social•20 hours ago

Yeah! Democrats need to shut up and do what they're told! You have to root for your team if you want us to win the Big Game!

Now where are we having brunch today?

kevinleecaster.bsky.social•20 hours ago

I'm not sure what has made you believe that attacking Democrats will make them more popular so that they can win more elections, but I disagree with your hypothesis and since I desperately want to get Republicans out of power state my opinion on that, but you do whatever makes you feel better.

allensmithee.bsky.social•20 hours ago

Why don't all of you "activist" try getting with the winning team for a change. Our leadership works hard to fight the leftist russian commie vote stealers every four years. Also, where are those mimosas we ordered?

suannelqr.bsky.social•21 hours ago

Since we’re all chiming in, I opine our elected Dem leaders need to prioritize Bluesky instead of treating it as a cross-posted afterthought a couple days later. 🤔

kevinleecaster.bsky.social•21 hours ago

Well, our elected Democrats have more constituents than just the few of them that are on BlueSky and I'll also add that I don't think you have evidence supporting your dig at Democrats as is usually the case with most of them.

suannelqr.bsky.social•21 hours ago

“Few” is doing some heavy lifting here. Evidence is in the number of elected Dem leaders who aren’t even on bluesky, followed by those who are on bluesky but their timelines are empty, followed by those who only post every few days.

auntiet.bsky.social•45 minutes ago

AND, if you're posting a meme calling out the MSM, it would go a long way if said MSM is tagged in the post. Just sayin'...

My latest.
DOGE’s rampage through institutions has parallels in China’s Cultural Revolution
Jianli Yang
I survived Mao Zedong and the Chinese Communist Party’s purges. What's happening now reminds me of the CCP’s Central Cultural Revolution Group.

>'A new Tea Party movement is rising'

first mistake was thinking democrats are capable of doing anything

nellieblue.bsky.social•21 hours ago

No more polished politicians that just feel like actors. We need actual leaders.

enough-already.bsky.social•20 hours ago

Every Dem needs to hold a town hall: even in red districts.

raymondlyacht.bsky.social•21 hours ago

You literally lost the 18-29 demo and had record numbers of PoC and LGB voters switch parties. You have no leadership and your party has a 31% favorability (lowest in history). Other than that, you’re spot on.

Definitely seeing new energy at our local Dem meetings in Middle Tennessee, and it's 100 percent in response to Trump.

truebluemajority.bsky.social•18 hours ago

I don't want to connect to the term Tea Party.

The tpotty was an astroturf funded, top-down, movement of obstruction.

I'd rather identify our positive organizing energy with the INDIVISIBLE movement that helped save Obamacare in 2017.

Similar techniques, but used for progress not destruction!

congapadre.bsky.social•21 hours ago

I concur. The Constitution serves as both our shield and our sword. This is precisely why there are efforts to undermine and ultimately eliminate it.

heavymode.bsky.social•20 hours ago

Not a fan of comparing it to the tea party, which is maga now

thefritobandito.daliban.co•22 hours ago

There is a very small, very short list of senators that we should allow to stay in our party going forward. AOC, Jasmin Crockett, Chris Murphy. Everyone else needs to go.

suannelqr.bsky.social•21 hours ago

There’s enough slobbering hyperbole on the right, could you please knock it off? I love AOC and Jasmine Crockett as much as the next person but I’m getting really tired of seeing them sanctified as the “only” ones worthy of praise.

boobiewankanoobie.bsky.social•21 hours ago

Bernie Sanders, Elizabeth Warren, Jamie Raskin, Whitehouse.There are many in the party working for you that you don’t even know about.

thefritobandito.daliban.co•21 hours ago

Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren are too old, it's time for them to retire.

boobiewankanoobie.bsky.social•21 hours ago

And yet they are fighting as hard as anyone and have the wisdom to make the big decisions. We need older people who have lived thru and understand history.

thefritobandito.daliban.co•21 hours ago

We don't need a gerontocracy. Someone who is 60 years old and has been in politics for a couple of decades has more than enough experience to be a wise leader. People in their 70s and 80s are starting to slow down and become senile. If there's anything we need to learn from Biden, it's this.

boobiewankanoobie.bsky.social•20 hours ago

So in your perspective General Miley is too old to serve.

boobiewankanoobie.bsky.social•21 hours ago

Nonsense. Biden is not senile. Trump may be, that’s for sure. Biden was slow. There is a big difference. And Bernie definitely is not senile. They are not making the big decisions and the president should be younger I agree.
