They are part of the coup, it should be extremely obvious by now.

marcosantana.bsky.social•15 hours ago

What if the government shuts down, never reopens and SCOTUS agrees that because there’s no government Trump can do what he wants?

Have you thought of that?

punkvampy.bsky.social•13 hours ago

They already agreed on that..

Of course they're going to fold. It's what they do.

If they won't meet the moment, there's only one solution. REVOLUTION! Primary every single one of the fucks and put in place actual fucking fighters! I will not vote for a single Democratic incumbent if this is the result.

It is feckless leadership!

My senators no longer pick up the phone and their boxes are "full".

And they are dems.

I was able to leave voicemail for both Schiff and Padilla at their DC offices.

thatmanglenn.bsky.social•14 hours ago

You can post to their accounts here. Who knows what matters but it feels better than nothing.

Maybe email too

clhowley.bsky.social•12 hours ago

I left messages on both Schiff and Padilla’s voicemails around 9am. So maybe they really did just receive a ton of constituent calls, which, good job Californians!

carljungfranz.bsky.social•14 hours ago

Trump is speaking out of appointees mouths.
All of Trump’s appointees
are going to say & do
what Trump tell them to say & do.

All of them are sock puppet toadies for Trump’s dictates.

Trump is a Jim Jones/David Koresh/Marshall Applewhite

I think this is why Trump decided to deport that Palestinian protester yesterday- to divert activist attention away from CR vote

joanmaire.bsky.social•15 hours ago

Feckin’ Fetterman. He’s betrayed the Dems who elected him. That stroke must have left some permanent brain damage.
Now if ONLY someone would pick up the phones in his office…but they don’t. On purpose.

Fetterman. He said that under no circumstance will he ‘vote for a shutdown.’ Someone needs to tell him that’s all on MAGA.

dustinheron.bsky.social•15 hours ago

That's one, and he's immovable. They need at least 6 more.

why are Senate Democrats this weak

susanboston.bsky.social•14 hours ago

Nah. Spent 10 years getting all worked up over these votes only to be disappointed.

oh4cryingoutloud.bsky.social•16 hours ago

It’s debilitating to call, email, protest, b/c no one has our backs who is in position to matter; not the legislative branch (knee benders), not the judicial branch (lone brave actors will not prevent the inevitable thanks to Moscow Mitch’s corrupt SCOTUS). Do we lie down? No. But expect the worst.

I called but my senator is John Fetterman and he sucks

whirlsz.bsky.social•16 hours ago

the more they suck the more important it is to call!

becksart05.bsky.social•15 hours ago

Same here. He sold out months ago.

girlmathur.bsky.social•14 hours ago

I called him too.

maxpita.bsky.social•15 hours ago

Fetterman said last night on here he supports the CR and will vote yes.

gavihacohen.bsky.social•15 hours ago

Hence why he sucks

kristenfrenchsc.bsky.social•14 hours ago

Keep the pressure on him, then. It matters.

kristenfrenchsc.bsky.social•14 hours ago

that's why he needs to hear from you! Thanks for calling!

elliskatz.bsky.social•16 hours ago

I think there's no good choice here for Dems.

If they do end up shutting the gvmt down, they are going to need very good messaging to media & American people as to why, and why they are not the bad guys here. Messaging tends to be a weak point for Dems, and GOP thrives on lying and blaming.

stephaniekind.bsky.social•12 hours ago

Can’t Schumer make the Dems get it the hell together to oppose this?! I have called my WA senators. This is so infuriating—get it together, Dems! You have power here!

shayleesbibi.bsky.social•11 hours ago

I called both Sens this am. Hear me when I say it is a stab in the back to “work with” the gop. They have a majority, if their spending is so popular they can pass it w/o Dems. I depend on VA/SoSec, but will take shutdown over bending to authoritarianism. @wyden.senate.gov @jeff-merkley.bsky.social

If either of the senators in Virginia vote for this bill that will be the last vote ever from me.

Don't have a phone write now but emailed my democratic Senators" "Thank you for continuing to hold the line against the fascist republican continuing resolution and funding. Republicans have been trying to "drown government in a bathtub" for decades. Please do not let them succeed."

thisisjoylps.bsky.social•16 hours ago

Called, my NY reps. I really think Schumer has given up. His statement about Khalil was really muddled and he’s reiterating that govt shutdowns are so bad. Dems are not playing in the same league.

scrumfy.bsky.social•16 hours ago

It’s not that he’s given up, it’s just another Biden situation. Dude is way too old, been in the job too long, and is not prepared for this moment

Durbin won't say what he is voting. 312-353-4952 if you want to tell him the correct answer. That's Chicago. His Washington line doesn't have a voicemail. (You read that right.)

I called Fetterman on Monday to urge the short-term CR option — the one that got 29% support in your Indivisible member poll. That seemed the best option to me — but is anyone still considering it?

If they vote for this our last hope is stopping the SAVE Act. If they don’t stop this, what is there left to do.

hirobottt.bsky.social•16 hours ago

Genuine question:

I’m horrified by the current bill.

But what if govt shuts down and DOGE leverages this to wipe out the existing federal workforce?

With Fox News & Co, will this be widely blamed on Dems?

Hell 44% of people approve of Trumps handling of economy so we’re in some weird waters.

p-kai.bsky.social•16 hours ago

They're already wiping out federal workers. As a federal employee, I want a shutdown to at least slow things down and get some leverage that could be used to stop layoffs. Even if Dems are blamed, it's not going to matter for the midterms.

hirobottt.bsky.social•16 hours ago

Reports are that Elon is saying he wants a shutdown so that DOGE can use it as an excuse to speed up the federal worker purge.

https://www.wired.com/story/elon-musk-has-wanted-the-government-shut-down/?_sp=d0ab4cc8-257c-4443-b0c8-038d8207bb69.1741786879407

p-kai.bsky.social•16 hours ago

As a federal worker, I am telling you that most of us want a shutdown. It's the only chance to stop DOGE.

iustitia100.bsky.social•14 hours ago

I hate that guy.

topherbrennan.bsky.social•15 hours ago

Elon Musk is an idiot. He does not realize how badly a shutdown wpuld blow up in his face.

hirobottt.bsky.social•12 hours ago

That’s why Dems can’t do anything where they will be widely blamed for it! Even blame sharing is unacceptable.

Dems have to ensure that Trump & GOP have to own ALL of the coming disasters.

It makes this complicated.

joeliza.bsky.social•16 hours ago

“… blamed on the Democrats.” They do that no matter what. Trump is blaming Biden for the economy now. We have to stop letting fear of their propaganda set the agenda.

hirobottt.bsky.social•16 hours ago

I mean, I agree in principle, but we also can’t ignore the current reality when we’re talking about the govt shutting down & damaging the economy.

Trump is on the hook for the slowing economy right now, and it’s bad for them. It’s critical that whatever we do, we don’t cede that narrative.

okiimomo.bsky.social•16 hours ago

Just called @schiff.senate.gov and @alexpadilla4ca.bsky.social

I called Kaine and Warner every day this week. Neither office will say how they plan to vote. They are both out of touch, seem to live in the past & think they need to work in a bipartisan manner. They need to be pushed by their constituents to stand against this harmful bill.
