Don't go. Boycott it.

toberton.bsky.social•5 days ago

Oh hey, why didn’t you vote today?

leighanne62.bsky.social•4 days ago

When you give your speech tonight you need to call out every lie every debacle and how he is burning the constitution and our country should not be run by someone who hates America, grow a pair!

freyasblackcat.bsky.social•5 days ago

Why didn’t you vote today? They are trying to destroy the rights of transgender people in this country, and you campaigned that you would fight for us.

jkayne81.bsky.social•5 days ago

Because she is a coward. Shame on her

hate that these fired federal workers have to sit through Trump’s speech. I’m worried he will insult and mock them. Instead of subjecting them to this, you and your colleagues should stage a massive walk out. NOTHING should be business as usual now. I’m a MI constituent, please act!

gloinjo.bsky.social•4 days ago

I agree. We know in advance that Trump will rattle on in his typical propaganda rhetoric. We know he’s a traitor to our nation—a monster. Democrats have to set a precedence by calling him out on every lie and make fierce demands on him. Trump must stop this facsist behavior or be removed!

agender-agenda.bsky.social•4 days ago

slotkin literally agrees with Trump on human rights issues

I’m disgusted by this!🤬

Don't let Criminal Trump go after prosecutors who charged J6 terrorist!

Walk out on the State of Union with a banner of a picture of the January 6th, 2021 terrorist attack!

With a phrase:

"We refuse to forget the attack on this House - January 6th, 2021!"

det2indy.bsky.social•4 days ago

In your response tonight you have to call out the lies , talk dollars and cents Trumps decisions are making which affect the middle class and low income , give example if Musk paid his fair share of social security, it could fix the gaps , many don’t know the formula , get direct with your message

zteam17.bsky.social•5 days ago

I hope you are wearing blue and yellow to send a message of support of Ukraine.

I wish you’d have a room full of fired federal workers behind you. Go Big!

Make it a stadium. Dammit already

tommykbs.bsky.social•4 days ago

Short, sweet and to the point, tonight. You're very good at this, and I hope you won't be caught up in lots of details. "Eggs cost more now. Social Security is under attack. Putin is happy."

Looking forward to hearing what you will say!

tommykbs.bsky.social•4 days ago

I regret that this issue is so forgotten and I understand your frustration, but this is not the hill to die on today. The complexities cannot obscure the larger picture, which is that we are on the brink of a dictatorship. Trump has to be opposed in ways that will work on GOP voters. Or we're lost.

agender-agenda.bsky.social•4 days ago

then tell them to stop killing my people if we're not supposed to die on that hill today

tommykbs.bsky.social•4 days ago

I see that Slotkin did not vote. Will ask her why. Your frustration remains understandable, but we need GOP Congress members to begin opposing Trump. Not ONE did on this vote. It's horrible for you today, but I'm looking forward to days w/o Project 2025. We can't wait until 2026.

agender-agenda.bsky.social•4 days ago

bro fuck off, this is literally a genocide of ME and MY COMMUNITY. I might not make it to 2026!!! Fucking help people who aren't you!! This is the second holocaust unfolding right in front of your eyes and you're like "shhh don't fuss, victim of genocide, I will be fine"

tommykbs.bsky.social•4 days ago

I am a constituent, BTW. Lawler said that Russia is the aggressor. Any other GOP Senators we might call to remind them of the value of courage?

lallberry.bsky.social•5 days ago

This is you and your cohorts plan? That’s it? Our country is crumbling and that’s the best you can do? We’re doomed. FRIGGIN’ DO SOMETHING!!!!

sharitaylor2020.bsky.social•5 days ago

Unbelievable. This is not a normal SOTU. There should be a coordinated approach by Dems to make this as uncomfortable for Trump as possible.

bakes-naked.bsky.social•4 days ago

You didn't vote yesterday? Why? 🤦🏼‍♀️

xxbloodypawsxx.bsky.social•4 days ago

Remember how she approved some of Trump's cabinet picks? It wouldn't surprise me if she agreed with the ban but was too cowardly to admit it. 😒 They should've picked Bernie or Jasmine Crockett if you asked me.

Hold a huge rally instead.

mrsricoricardo.bsky.social•5 days ago

Decline, we don't want you. You voted for the enemy, you do not represent us.

allinmoderation.bsky.social•4 days ago

Public needs to know that only Dems ar protesting in support of the fired employees & trying to hold 47 accntbl for illegal acts committed. Dems & unions are filing lawsuits. DEMs issued subpoenas to hear DOGE staff & GOP Reps shouldn't be evading questions on Ukraine, tax cuts 4 rich & DOGE crimes.

allinmoderation.bsky.social•4 days ago

Please stress in your Rebuttal to the SOTU that what he & DOGE are doing is illegal & violations of The Constitution, and that our freedoms and rights are at stake now. The 77 million who voted for him have to know that his actions & decisions are going to collapse our economy & change world order.

julieswhimsies.bsky.social•5 days ago

I honestly don’t care who is your guest at SOTU. GET OUT OF YOUR SEAT AND WALK OUT!

jcblough.bsky.social•4 days ago

You're showing up to SOTU but didn't bother to show up last night to vote for the rights of your trans constituents? Do you have an explanation for that?

redjoe.bsky.social•5 days ago

Elon is dismantling the Federal workforce. He’s doing it day by day. It’s not just Veterans being affected obviously. The process he’s using to dismantle the federal workforce is unprecedented and NOBODY seems to be standing up to him!

YOUR FUCKING DONE SLOTKIN, one and done for voting for the whore who told us to buy chickens, Fucking knew it, shitbird…. One and out you and fuckwad peters

SO FIGHT FOR GODSAKE! I'M TOTALLY DISGUSTED BY YOUR LACK OF A FIGHTING SPIRIT! DO SOMETHING!!! ANYTHING!! STAND UP FOR US!!!!!! FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT!!!!!!!!

jerseybeachlover.bsky.social•5 days ago

All Democrats should be walking out of that speech- not bringing guests . WTH are you people doing - this is not business as usual in government, there is a coup going on or hadn't you noticed. You're going to be a one termer.

bobbyjmain.bsky.social•5 days ago

why did you abstain from voting on the GOP predator act??!!

sheabor.bsky.social•5 days ago

How will anyone know this? Boycotting the speech would be more effective. Kudos to my former Senator @murray.senate.gov for doing this 👍🏻

Too many people are going to pay a hefty price to help the oligarchy. So sorry they say. Stop the steal!

informationbank.bsky.social•5 days ago

No Democrat should be going to this speech. You should all be boycotting. Ron Wyden is holding a Town Hall tomorrow night.

dukeanhammer.bsky.social•5 days ago

I truly feel for you, not knowing if you should or shouldnt, knowing whatever you say or do will be spun to fit his narrative to constantly keep his followers following. So many are in the dark, not knowing what’s happening in the US right now because of media control. Whatever you choose, good luck

cgeerer.bsky.social•5 days ago

Andrew Lennox is our guest speaker at Stand Up for Science in Lansing on March 7 - join us! (Just one of MANY MANY rallies being held in Michigan and across the country - we are working harder than CONGRESS!) Senator Slotkin, DO SOMETHING BIG!

emnreviews.bsky.social•4 days ago

Adding alt text. Please don't exclude the visually-impaired, especially in messages of resistance.

cgeerer.bsky.social•5 days ago

Senator, your MI constituents were standing in 15F weather holding signs in Petoskey and other towns across the state this weekend. And went home to plan more rallies - dozens this week alone in MI!! WE ARE WORKING HARDER THAN CONGRESS. You need to step it up and light them on fire tomorrow! FOR US!

sbellefeuille.bsky.social•4 days ago

Wish neither of you were attending this farce. Trump deserves no respect whatsoever. He’s an amoral coward and traitor. He was installed by a global criminal organization specifically to destroy us.

stupickles7.bsky.social•5 days ago

Don’t attend the speech, don’t dignify fascists

jmbzbell.bsky.social•5 days ago

I can’t believe you voted for so many cabinet positions. Are you a maga plant? Sure seems like it based on your horrific actions. I’m disappointed at all those parading you around like you were so great before elections.

perifore.bsky.social•4 days ago

Someone needs to attend in order to resist. I am glad Senator Slotkin is speaking, but am concerned it isn't enough.

This is an existential threat to our democracy.

Some folks on Medicaid, LGBT and Immigrants will likely not survive the next 4 years because of what has already transpired.

whoweare4change.bsky.social•5 days ago

mrsricoricardo.bsky.social•5 days ago

They don't deserve a response. This is not how democracy works, so by giving them a response, is like accepting what they are doing. Litterally people are losing their livelyhoods and dying, and what do we get, a shit show.

slotkin.senate.gov•5 days ago

Service is in Andrew’s blood, and after serving our nation as a U.S. Marine infantryman overseas and a recruiter stateside, he wanted to continue serving at the VA.

Elon Musk knows nothing about the VA, and it’s shameful Andrew got a pink slip as part of these arbitrary firings.

smklovesusa.bsky.social•3 days ago

What are you prepared to do to save this nation from fascism?

dan-marq.bsky.social•5 days ago

tommykbs.bsky.social•4 days ago

Will you please talk to your GOP colleagues who secretly dislike Trump but are in fear of their physical safety? The questions are, "Will they and their families be safe under a dictatorship? What will their children's lives be like if no one ever says 'NO!' to Trump?" This is the time for courage.

redcyberdragon29.bsky.social•2 days ago

Your response to Trump was lame as hell. you should be ashamed. you want to work with these Nazis on the border and "efficiency"? GO TO HELL!

becksr.bsky.social•2 days ago

Stop trashing the Harris campaign! It’s divisive and beneath you. Democrats are mad as hell right now so read the room! We need a leader who is ready to fight the fascists; but you seem more intent on positioning yourself for a future prez run- 🤬

cowchaser24.bsky.social•5 days ago

That’s great. What are you doing to stop trump bypassing congress on spending issues? He have Israel money yesterday and stopped ukraine funding today. Amazing one person can do whatever he wants

mi-taurus.bsky.social•5 days ago

Like the Republicans have their “waste, fraud, and abuse” tag line I think Democrats need one that can be easily understood and spread across all platforms for example “Taxes, tariffs, and terminations”. I think that sums up this administration easily and accurately.

jkayne81.bsky.social•5 days ago

You were silent today. You are a coward.

He also knows nothing about seniors & others on Medicaid. I’ve been visiting nursing facilities in San Diego because I’m almost certified as a volunteer LTC Ombudsman. In one 100% were on Medicaid. They’re mostly bedridden, dementia & dying. Where are they going? Musk Euthanizing them?

Why did you vote for Doug Collins to lead VA? He will do nothing to protect heroic public servants like Andrew! I hope you will fight harder for the people you're supposed to represent. I won't be watching your response because my guess it'll be tepid appeasement BS.

Cancel all of Musk’s billions in government contracts now. That’ll force real accountability fast. We’re rocketing towards fascism now. Act like the leader we need. Please.
