"Republicans have set an example, and Democrats must play by the exact same set of rules once used against them. Every tool, even those we might otherwise oppose, must be used to stop or slow down the confirmation of Trump judges."

The problem is that by playing by their rules, we in effect become them. We can save this country simply by doing what is correct. He must be arrested. He must serve his time. The cowards elected to government have failed us for fear of their sins & padded pockets being exposed.
I am trying to convince anyone with a bigger platform on the left to talk to me in order to have a very important discussion about what the right wing,potentially foreign actors are doing on YT.Sadly my success rate is 0,which sucks cause I have a bad feeling after 20th Jan we will not get much help
The Senate is where, with a few exceptions, legislators with good intentions go to calcify. I don’t expect much at this point, given the numbers. Of course, now with Sinema and Manchin gone, the Senate Dems will have fewer knives shoved in their backs.
Unfortunately democrats’ default response to everything magats do to destroy democracy is «it was cowardly, » or « that’s not who we are. » The political poise of 1965 doesn’t work in 2025. But double agents care!
They don't have the guts to bc they believe in "civility" or "being fair." Some of them do but overall that's the mindset. And it loses. It's gonna take the base to start making some calls to light a 🔥 under their asses to let know to 🛑 playing nice and FIGHT BACK!! Fights aren't meant to be pretty.
if democrats were playing by the same rules Trump would be in prison instead of being sworn into office on Monday. democrats in congress don’t seem to understand what they’re about to experience.
Hey Democrats, fight, block, reject and deny every Trump and Republican efforts till the mid-terms. Forger decorum, tradition and precedent.
Who is leading the Democratic Part now? They need someone strong, assertive. mean and not afraid to break the rules. This is where were at.
The ideas here are (1) Attend things to vote, (2) ask questions (3) use blue slips (4) use “procedure” without giving specific ideas - what is new here that was t done last time?
Never happen. Democrats prosper financially whether they win or lose. They’ll make a lot of noise about “fighting” but lay down like the surrender monkeys they are.

Stop grandstanding for clips and starting asking substantive questions that reveal incompetence.
Everyone knows only Trump loyalist will be in the admin. Show how they can't handle governing and the consequences.
