For the life of me, I can’t figure out why so many Democrats in Congress still don’t have an account on Bluesky. Just as bad, many of those who do have accounts here don’t post on a regular basis. Is it ignorance or laziness on their part? If so, don’t they have staffers handling their social media?

I'm trying to get us organized and solidified for action. I do not need to be pestered by x dudes.

They’ve outlived their useful service in politics.
I’m a senior… this isn’t ageism, this is what I see.
Feeling grateful, and a little star struck TBH.
Bluesky is helping us organize like twitter used to.

They're here!
what?
Congress: working
I figured they are caught up in the F-ELON's "X" since
for now they still have lg followings there...Kinda like
Someone having a hard time getting out of an abusive
relationship...
.
They should abandon Xwitter but they won't. They should join Bluesky but they haven't.
You don't lose followers by joining Bluesky, true. But Dems don't go for the jugular. But they need to pull out every stop.
They prefer to play "checkers" by focusing on tactical games with losing issues like identity politics than recognizing the clown show they have become.
Canadian corporations are still not on BlueSky either.
No one should be using X. It’s a right-wing propaganda machine that suppresses democracy.
2. Platforms get bought. Blue Sky seems safe and ethical today. Who knows tomorrow.
3. They will get here. Until then commit to a few more clicks to watch and support them where they do appear. Just not X.
Find them and follow them on Bluesky.

It takes less than 5 seconds to post in 2 (or more) places. When my Twit account was still active, I did this all the time. Surely those interns have 5 spare seconds?
My #1 gripe about the D's for years - since Hillary.
Sh1tty marketing.
No brand. No strategy. Tactically clueless.
in my case I have a useless R slug - Kevin Kiley - CA Gold Country region. That MFer REFUSES to reply to constituents.
They are not early adopters
They’ve become old and unresponsive to their constituents
They also don’t seem to have a plan, or know how to communicate
They do what their donors want them to do.
I don't think I have seen any post a reply to a single follower.
Either they don't have a solution / plan, or they don't want to be bothered interfacing with their constituents.
Whatever it is is very disappointing 😞
@balint.house.gov
They are following the rules of the road when they are really at sea and being attacked by pirates. Read the room!
Politics = numbers. #crueltruth
I will respond to everything my congress people post.
Squeaky wheel gets the grease?
🦋 should be their platform for news and press.
Hence, the problems we have now.
🇨🇦 have joined, it helped unite us.
🤷♀️
Someone should tell them to wake up.
In other news water is wet.
Why isn't retirement mandatory at 65?
Ie....Elon and Mr. Trump's brain rot.
speak up @schumer.senate.gov @sanders.senate.gov @booker.senate.gov @fetterman.senate.gov @warren.senate.gov @whitehouse.senate.gov @smith.senate.gov
WE CAN'T HEAR YOU
Same messages pushed through all the channels
It’s pretty simply if they had it organized
