House Democrats sing “We Shall Overcome” following Rep. Al Green’s censure:
Comments
We shall overcome isn’t a song, it isn’t a platitude.
We shall overcome someday is a truth, and a promise.
Someday hasn’t come yet.
Sing. This. Song.
No more chants. No more catchphrases.
No nos moverán
Furthermore, green has been nonstop admonished by leadership since this happened. This is all performative bs and doesn’t mean anything. Hope this helps
The second is that when MTG was asked to sat down, she sat back down. When Al Green was asked to sit down, he refused, which was a breach of rules. Oddly enough Al Green broke more rules than MTG did.
Which is a much more powerful message than a black paddle.
They need to cut the noose, but they don't believe in scissors.
Sadism & repression is essential to GOP messaging/reach.
And I don't just mean to GOP voters. The glee with which Dems, awarded zero power by voters, are attacked for having no power is part of this as well.
I mean they could commit Seppuku but that wouldn't prevent the speaker from ensuring Green.
The second option will make life harder for the ones who go down that road but the end result we all want will happen much faster.
Joe Biden was never a popular nominee. They forced him down the public’s gullet, much like the party did with Hillary Clinton and Harris.
They are in collaboration with the enemy. They are traitors. All of them.
They should be treated as such. These are not Americans. These are performers in the great play.
Because frowny faces always work
I mean kids are doing more than all of you during Civil Rights movement.
Go take a nap
They're basically a controlled opposition party.
Do you hear the people sing? I do.
They told us who they are when they wanted to preserve stock trading for politicians and their families.
“It would be a real shame if people get bright ideas about how to use this agains shitty politicians.”

You should learn to read better, then go read some books.. you are dumber than I would expect a teenager to be if you believe that BS. Where'd you get that? 😂🤣
So you just BARELY graduated public high school huh?😆
If Congressional Democrats didn't have double standards they'd have no standards at all.
Put your money where your mouth is.
🙄
And the Dems wonder why they lost the election.
Great tactic there, folks. Sing the GOP to submission.
*facepalm again
democrats: protest
people: you did nothing
every time
Singing is one, Just One of those things. That song was sung for a reason. It harkens back to many times when black people have had to fight.
Don’t understand. Learn.
Platitudes mean NOTHING if action isn’t taken behind the scenes. Democrats would rather sing songs than take action
When people say "DO SOMETHING!!" they do not mean a geriatric sing along; People mean they want everyone to be at minimum as disruptive as Al Green was. Preferably MUCH MUCH more disruption.
Democrats not being disruptive? Believe it or not, the same!
When all roads lead to “Dems bad”, you’re a leftist influencer!
Could've organized a mass protest, civil disobedience en masse to block the Fascists from leaving ie. ensuring that the Trump goons would've used force on civilians.
Instead, useless singing that makes look like a old, senile choir group.

This is what you were elected to do! Holding a stupid sign during a whole speech just makes you look like a bad loser
We need a REAL third party that administers government in a *purely logical* way, while backing us like Trudeau backs Canadians.
Just deserts.

It's time to fight back. Trump and his bootlickers have gotten away with far too much.
They’re great at it.
I think there were more MAGA there than Dems.
It looked bad.
Morons.
I've a new acronym for that group. The DNDs. -- the Do Nothing Democrats.
This is why it's said Dems have no backbone.
Remember it was amendments & other BS that lengthened TRUE justice & even that smith guy sold out & it was WORDS & not ACTION that kept that rapist out of jail for treason ffs 🤦♀️
What do they actually do all day?
It's embarrassing now.
