John Lewis...... I said, "JOHN LEWIS!!!!"

For paid subscribers only? First thing, make the tools for the fight free, maybe? Lol capitalism is partly to blame for this and it's alive and well in the resistance.

My Congressman is doing an excellent job. My community is putting themselves out there by communicating and educating. If you are a pro-democracy resident don't wait, speak out, write/call Maggots about your thoughts/anger with what they are doing.

Get the receipts from DOGE's 'claimed' recoveries. NO ONE is verifying these goon's actions. Congress needs to Subpoena and investigate to regain control. DEMAND a plan approved by Congress to stop the carnage. If the Reichpublican's approve garbage plans that can be outed to the public...

Hitler responds to a warning from FDR in the Reichstag. We need to know what's coming next...

@kenmartin.bsky.social @housedemocrats.bsky.social @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social @schumer.senate.gov, it's not rocket science. We are the party of philosophers dealing with the party of sewer rats with no morals. Be unified with every step we take, and get in the sewer with the rats.

Lack of imagination?

Raskin’s idea is to start suing his underlings and jail those who are accused of criminal activities -that is where they begin. Just like the mob movies taught us start with the underlings

“F” THE MAGA CONGRESS/SENATE WHO DON’T GIVE A SH*T WHAT THE PEOPLE NEED. BIG PUSSIES ARE TO AFRAID OF THE BIG DUMBASS ORANGE FELON. LETS GET SOME REAL MEN OR WOMEN IN OFFICE. THESE MEN ARE WORTHLESS WEAK PUSSIES!!!!

If they don't know how, maybe they should find someone who can.

bflawson69.bsky.social•19 days ago

Stop the bickering. That is Trumps thing and there is no substance in it. Identify 5 to 10 policy items and contrast your ideas with details on why they are better. They also have to be partly bipartisan.

marie-snowden.bsky.social•19 days ago

They aren’t unless they have some super secret plan they don’t want to tell anybody. 🤬

And they certainly are NOT beating on the White House door, shunning their Republican colleagues or banging pots and pans in the House. All things *I* would be doing 🤷‍♀️

jeanmoulin4ever.bsky.social•19 days ago

You get the worlds democratic leaders to go public with all the surveillance intel we know they have on trump, musk and Putin

If the media wont fact check or cover the truth, buy ad time.

Ask Mitch McConnell for his playbook. He seems to have done well when his party was in the minority. Mitch took his opposition role very seriously. Didn't win every battle, but was successful in throwing sand in the gears and slowed things down.

meirirymski58.bsky.social•19 days ago

Here's an idea Democrats, rather than complaining start messaging.

How about "We Democrats will fix what Trump and Project 2025 broke by fully staffing all federal departments so the government works for the people again. Americans, we hear you!"

rmbelieve.bsky.social•19 days ago

We need a third party. Please start one or find the people who will. We have to start now.

rmbelieve.bsky.social•19 days ago

Someone NEEDS to start a third party. Please start it or find people who will. We need to start now!!!

nicolerothrock.bsky.social•19 days ago

Here’s how: (1) UNIFY (2) AGAINST (3) EVERYTHING

Unless and until human rights, civil rights, immigrant rights, ally relationships, and our constitution is restored!!!

deadshanks.bsky.social•19 days ago

Do exactly what the fascist MAGA did & manipulate the current anger of all people currently voicing their disgust and keep inciting it until it’s too much to overcome…and START NOW

Unfortunately, it isn't always clear they even want to fight -- leave aside how.

alohaauheenalu.bsky.social•19 days ago

They can start by booting @schumer.senate.gov @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social out of their leadership positions

karhey.bsky.social•19 days ago

I would argue that they are fighting on multiple fronts. What exactly are Republicans doing?
DOJ and Republicans call for any violence against a f*ing Tesla as an act of terrorism while THEY advocate for violence against judges. And what is the press doing?

louiswellingtonjr.bsky.social•19 days ago

That ship sailed when strong Republican Schumer agreed to the CR. “Well, things could be even worse!”, our elected Democrats say. With that dodge disguised as an argument, there is no “fight back”.

AOC is correct. WE must fight back! Our politicians can get on board or be chased out of office.

mhaka-ca.bsky.social•19 days ago

I think there needs to be a national strike. Everyone just stop working. Bring everything to a halt.

rhonda28.bsky.social•19 days ago

Oh, ffs. Just ask WWMD!

misappropriated.bsky.social•19 days ago

***for god’s sake*** IS ANYONE PAYING ATTENTION TO WHAT BERNIE AND AOC ARE DOING LATELY????

xboudica.bsky.social•19 days ago

Well for starters, don’t roll over and take it up the ass.

natalied547.bsky.social•18 days ago

That is obvious. They bring a white flag to a gunfight. Start being as loud as they for starters. Play their game and win or continue doing what you are doing and lose

mmmhmmm1.bsky.social•19 days ago

mrslilith.bsky.social•19 days ago

I think the bulk of the fight is not against trump himself but the propaganda machine supporting him. Sadly, too many Americans are buying what they’re selling, and dems desperately need to regain the message. Stop the authoritarian = We.The.People rise up and stop him.

sweatband09.bsky.social•19 days ago

It’s pretty simple. Filibuster everything you can, vote no on everything, delay whatever you can’t stop for as long as absolutely possible. Get loud, get disruptive. If they need more ideas, study the tactics of Mitch McConnell over the past 15 years.

mlmcg.bsky.social•19 days ago

People are fighting back can’t wait for them not made for the moment get us Mayor of Boston type that’s the energy AOC and Bernie Walz Pritzker Bashear they’ve got the MOJO

sjw-forall.bsky.social•19 days ago

That's because they haven't a clue and it's disturbing.
