As a member of congress if you won’t do your job for fear of losing your job at the hands of your own party you’re in a dysfunctional party and you are spineless scum.
I've always despised people who cling to power. Power corrupts.
They're rotten to the core and betray not only their own values/beliefs, but those of the people who elected them. They sell their soul, if they ever had one.
It's time they start fearing their constituents more than Elon Musk.
Their constituents will suffer the costs of Musks intrusion into our most personal and private data systems, Social Security cuts, Medicare and Medicaid cuts, cuts to Veterans benefits, loss of Healthcare, and a growing recession.
There is a way to solve this problem. Tax the bastard out of existence. Send an amendment to the states outlawing campaign contributions. Revoked his citizenship and send him packing to South Africa.
I have heard the worries about losing their primaries. I have also heard they receive threats to there families. They all support project 2025. They need to be gone.
AGAIN! why is it always a woman that has the balls? The current government is scared shitless of the fucking felon. We need to get out and vote everybody and every election every Democrat cannot sit home and say I’m not going no vote independents Can’t sit at home if you want to change this!
Illegitimate administration and do not fear anything they threaten. They need to be rounded up and arrested. It’s high treason don’t support anyone committing crimes like this -you don’t want to go down because of silence!
There it is. They only care about their pay packets. Certainly not the people they are supposed to be representing. CRAVEN COWARDS every last one of them.
So let me get this straight, they make egocentric decisions rooted in their fear of being primaried instead of representing their constituents and upholding their oath to our constitution? None of them deserve their seat! & Elon is THE unelected beurocrat that must be removed from OUR government.
Does the GOP caucus know what happens to it once the dictatorship is fully installed? Probably primaries aren‘t a concern then but they may not have a job anyways.
The GOP needs to read the room. Being primaried is the least of their problems. Voters all over are pissed off at their inaction and capitulation to Felon M and Donnie Diapers. Messing with Social Security and violating their oath will end their political careers. Cowards.
Indicative of the real welfare queens and terrorists you need to worry about, not someone from another country. They're right in your backyard, running multi-billion dollar corporations, and holding office.
Your oppression is their profession.
Did she bend (ass up) when she voted to impeach? When she voted against Justice Kegstand? When she voted against Hegseth? Bottom line is we need republicans to speak up and she is.
Primaried?Who fucking cares?! These fucking assholes are always talking tough, but when it comes to dear leader they're fucking pussies. God damn, have some self respect.
The idiocy of abetting a coup so you don’t get primaried for a job that no longer means anything if the coup finishes? Am I following the circular logic correctly?
Oooooh my. That’s horrible! Fuck her. She gets a pension while the rest of us starve , go to concentration camps. But your precious primaries. Her family must be so ashamed.
They should have to defend and fight for their position EVERY SINGLE ELECTION CYCLE. That is public service. Serve or be pushed out. Hiding is not serving. Wake up America.
While speaking out and standing up for their constituents from this sociopath might actually help them keep their jobs, It’s much much easier to master the art of testicle gargling.
The calculation is very simple: Saving one's principles and integrity, or saving one's ass no matter what the cost. Sadly 99.9% of Republican politicians are degenerate self-serving cowards.
Then they should quit. I don’t feel sorry for these cowards. Take care of the people NOT THE BILLIONAIRES or resign. It’s that easy. Step out of the way if you are afraid. We don’t care. We are afraid of being screwed over by people who know better.
They should step down if they are cowards. Republicans created this climate. They have systematically dismantled public education for decades. Now a bunch of stupid fuckers swing elections based on propaganda soundbites.
I'm sorry, but if keeping a job requires you to not oppose policies that will cause the death of innocent people around the world, maybe it's better to lose the job.
“Primaried”
So freaking what! I think they’re more afraid their dirty little secrets will be plastered for all to see. They are a lot fill of hypocrisy.
g∅p=zero integrity
The problem is congressional seats drip with too much power and ability to generate wealth, so no one wants to leave their seat. Serving constituents becomes secondary to clinging to your role.
We should limit senate and house terms to 2 terms, everyone gets one shot at reelection and you’re done.
I just don't understand why these people are so desperate to hold onto their jobs. Most of them are already millionaires through insider trading and/or could easily cash in their status for a position on some corporate board where they do even less work.
So, they are selling our people and our country out because they do not want a new job. America, let‘s fix it for them in the next election and vote every one of them out.
True but better late than never. Judging by some of these town halls, more of them need to be doing calculations. If you're getting booed in your own district by your own voters, some self reflection may be needed.
Caving to dictatorship isn't the road to long term job preservation. They become useful idiots that can be replaced on a whim. What do they end up gaining? Despised by the rest of us? How much is one willing to sell of oneself?
This is like if a fireman said he was afraid of fire. Then maybe, oh, I don't know, don't be a fucking fireman. If they are afraid to stand up for the people they represent and who put them there specifically to STAND UP for us, then THEY SHOULDN'T BE THERE!
So being primaried is more scary than handing their children a country that is no longer free, where they can be imprisoned for an opinion, where clean air and water are no more, where the disabled are abandoned, the elderly starved, women and people of color are erased from the history books.
That's exactly the thing I don't get. These politicians may not be billionaires, but most of the ones she's talking about have made a great deal of money while in office and could retire now with a lucrative pension or post-politics career. Yet, this is what they do instead. It's demented.
I agree, it's the only answer that makes sense. I guess it's hard for me to imagine being that addicted to my job regardless of the amount of power I had. But, I also think it probably takes a certain type of person to seek out that power in the first place. Me? I'm the type who wants to retire.
The depth of dishonor of the current POTUS, VP and minions has no bottom. A stain on their honor, their families, their party, their communities and our nation. What does it say about us that we elected a convicted felon with a lifetime record of dishonor, bankruptcies and failed relationships. sad!
Before we beat ourselves up again, there is some solace in conspiracy theories. Mine is the election was truly stolen, hacked. No evidence, just suspicion and questionable results - LasVegas, NV (vote switching). We aren't that stupid, but we can be tricked. Now, if there was only proof.
Her Republican constituents aren't liking her right now. I am though. If she could be more vocal and get some of her party members to stop this before it's too late, I'd be so proud. And I'm not a Republican. We don't go easy on our Congressional members. Thank you Lisa.
Yeah. A lot of these people seem to be living in a constant state of cognitive dissonance. Too much time spent having their cake and eating it, too. If we make it through this, history will do its thing.
They don't want to lose their cushy job because they know they'd never have it so good anywhere else. It's never been about serving their constituents, it's always been about saving their own asses.
Can you please tell these people that they are not going to be reelected by the people because they are not doing the right thing they don’t have to worry about musk!
I'm not buying it. I think Republicans fear countering Trump because their base has proven to be a pack of brainwashed, hateful simpletons who will follow anything and everything Trump says.
I suppose one positive is that we’re still at the money stage of this fiasco and not the falling out of windows stage which I think musk is capable of.
The real issue for them is not the primary but the election, MAGA are going to get economically crushed. Musk throwing their money about to keep Trump in office may become a non starter...you can only fuck over the people for so long.
Why would they possibly worry about being primaried so that they would be kicked out of office?
If they keep doing what they’re doing, there’s no billionaire with enough money to get them IN to office.
THEIR OWN CONSTITUENTS ARE SICK OF THEM!
MORE NUMBERS BY THE DAY
This is called having the courage of your convictions. If the non-MAGA GOP all stood up together, There wouldn’t be enough money or fortitude to primary all of them at once. Don’t they understand “power in numbers?”
I wish they all had the integrity to stand up rather than fold like a cheap suit. Very few do right now. I keep hoping more of them do, but I'm not going to hold my breath.
I think you underestimate just how rich Musk actually is. He can spend as much as was spent on all Senate races in 2024 combined. That's not an exaggeration. The amount of wealth he has is absolutely absurd.

Historians, should they be allowed to write honestly, will cover them with shame.
Their children and grandchildren will never clean the stain.
When their country needed them they chose a sociopath instead.

..... go away!!!
Your oppression is their profession.
Murkowski, your tough words mean nothing when you vote yes on every aspect of Hertitage, Putin agenda
You might wanna check that voting record!
“The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing”
Thank you Senator Murkowski

It's the GOP way
Republicans: The fuck we can’t.
Why are they so afraid of losing their job, but not their country?
that authoritarians use fear
to own you.
Once you fear them,
they own you.
And once they own you,
something much worse
than losing your job
will eventually happen.

Brave words from a coward.
I'd say possibly less than six.
She’s been voting party line.
She’s been voting for everything fascist.
She may speak up occasionally, but never shows any matching integrity in her votes.
Keep on, did you notice how hitlers back up group ended up?
Gutless Republican politicians put power and money above country and integrity.
You’ll get voted out if you DON’T.
Do your fucking job.
If they keep doing what they’re doing, there’s no billionaire with enough money to get them IN to office.
THEIR OWN CONSTITUENTS ARE SICK OF THEM!
