Are you blocking cloture or are you just pretending to fight?

Good start but get tougher Amy. The GOP are not your friends & barely colleagues. Call them out in no uncertain terms. #theopposition

Thanks, Senator Klobuchar for speaking truth to power. Please, vote no on cloture and the Republican CR.

This is a hard no situation. Dems must hold strong.

Yes, this is the energy we want to see. Thank you, Rep. Larson, for slamming the truth on the table.

Thank you Senator. The lies are so many and so frequent they are hard to keep up with. Such fraud millions over 100yo getting SS! Doge accessed data base of names only SS never purged. No money was associated. Then Fox State media amplifies the propaganda. Poison to any civil discourse

Please vote no on cloture for the CR. You have a constitutional duty to defend congress’s article 1 power of the purse. We pay you to defend the constitution, but right now you are like the cops standing around outside the school in Uvalde while people inside get slaughtered.

If he's not a king why were you so servile in approving his cabinet?

Oh finally. A worthless plea to Trump's court to consider the USA before their own political interests.

I am sure they are now lining up to renounce Trump.

Please.

How about LEADERSHIP and ACTION?

Worthless pleas are not getting the job done.

jkenley.bsky.social•18 hours ago

What's unacceptable is the reports you all will give up your only leverage in order to offer amendments that wont pass. Cowardly, feckless, failure to lead and protect the weakest among us are just a start on describing that strategy.

🚨These are Acts of War Against Americans NOT Governance!
🚨If Musk takes our Money out of Social Security Funds we will Never get it back!
Musk and Trump must be stopped now!
Trump, Musk and Cabinet r heavy drug users making these crazy decisions like go to War with Canada!
Drug Screens!

We need you and your peers to show more outrage like what Senator John Larson showed. Righteous anger!!! We need you senators to do it for all of us, and we’ll get behind that kind of leadership. This is a 5 alarm fire and you all bringing your little cans of fire retardant is not going to do it.

It’s not in her. She is what she is, an enabler to known traitors. She’s gotta go.

anifox.bsky.social•16 hours ago

You go, girl. And please get your (elected, oath-swearing) colleagues to do the same -- make a lot of noise, and news. Force a compliant media to give YOU the headlines with good words like "democracy," "constitution," "laws," "we the people," "three branches of government" -- "impeachment."

dosomethingplease.bsky.social•16 hours ago

It’s not about the tax cuts… they could care less if they have $2 trillion or $1 trillion. It’s about collapsing Democracy and turning us into some apocalyptic hunger games situation!

fizzlebuns.bsky.social•18 hours ago

Yeah, but isn't Chuck allowing 7 of you to vote for it? You're just going to fuck us.

stefflee.bsky.social•18 hours ago

Get aggressive
Vote No

sararar.bsky.social•1 hour ago

Do not give up the 60 vote threshold. I remember when Dems held the line over a border wall. This is Medicaid. People will die.

Hold. The. Line. 🙏🏼

VOTE NO ON CR AND CLOTURE. NO.NO.NO.

lhast46.bsky.social•5 hours ago

But how are you folks in Congress going to stop him when you’re all sitting on your hands in fear of his retaliation? He “owns” all 3 branches. Kamala warned us about Trump “with no guardrails” & here we are. I’m scared for our country & all our futures

nachobiznezz.bsky.social•16 hours ago

DO NOT PASS THE BUDGET BILL. Republicans need to own the harm they have done to us!!!

cunninghamster54.bsky.social•11 hours ago

Your speech is great, but voting NO on cloture would be even greater for this Minnesotan.

I s2g if you bend knee to Republicans and vote yes on cloture you'll never see my vote or my money again. I've voted for you since I was 18, but I'm sick and tired of establishment dems acting like they can't do anything to stop our fall into fascism when you CAN.

queenofbits.bsky.social•5 hours ago

Like either vote no or admit you and Republicans are two sides of the same coin set on oppressing people who are less well off than you.

stillmovingalong.bsky.social•15 hours ago

Republican members of Congress, just because you're on top now, what makes you think you're in a protected position? Why does a king need Congress? Look what he's done without you? What if you become null & void? Your "Golden Boy" likes to throw supporters under the bus or use as scapegoats! 🤞🍀🤞

dialsun.bsky.social•15 hours ago

part of the problem as well is that those seniors mentioned are probably working instead of being able to fully rely on their social security/penion like my grandparents did..these billionaires can get taxed fairly or slip their heads into the chopping block.

ktrotzky.bsky.social•15 hours ago

NO continuing resolution. Not for 6 mo. Not for 30 days. Stop Trump/Musk. Better Dems take the blame for a temporary budgetary shut down than for allowing the complete destruction of the government.

lkc2025.bsky.social•15 hours ago

Are you all seeing the replies, where Democrats all feel betrayed by Schumer’s sell-out? Deep betrayal.

It’s not too late, but you have to vote against cloture and against the GOP CR.

leekell.bsky.social•17 hours ago

NO cloture please!

mrsdebdav.bsky.social•5 hours ago

NO is a two letter word. It's not hard. Say it. Long and loud.

doyourresearch1.bsky.social•18 hours ago

And the Republicans should also remember the mid-terms are coming up fast.

And the last time they pissed off America, constituents voted many of them out of office.

We'll do it again in 2026.

wickedferal.bsky.social•18 hours ago

That's why we need our elected Dems to vote NO on every thing they try. Give no quarter to these facists on the right that clearly want to bankrupt, sicken & kill us. We do not negotiate with terrorists, and Amy these ghouls on the right are terrorists.
