Not impressed so far. Just more politics as usual. You’re hitting your talking points and not offering anything new. We don’t need to be told what’s happening, we can see that! We need effective leadership. Disappointing.
WTF is this? Who in the hell is supposed to come away from this feeling any sort of confidence in this party? You guys just do not get it. We are freaking doomed unless something changes and changes soon
Next time please send the notification out and ask us to share. Like @rolandsmartin.bsky.social did last night. He had over 250,000 viewers while tRump was speaking last night!
Hard pass unless you guys are broadcasting the terms of your surrender to people who will stand up and fight for the American people. Because so far, we've seen a whole lot of nothing from you two.
i was one of aocs first 1000 followers back when pelosi's real pick for leader (crowley) was still on deck
local is the only way. progressive is the only way. lesser of two evils gets is jeffrey dahmer in a suit murdering healthcare patients w AI or a lone nutter in a hoody
Start telling the public that there were only (Estimate) 77,000 jobs created this month, What's the total?
What's unemployment rate w/ the Gov. firings?
We're here in a snowstorm, a captured audience.. and told not to drive anywhere.
Get more excited... Too wordy, Show a chart, U need graphics...
Stand-up, be excited in your voice, show enthusiasm, just do it, more energy, be excited!
Who's posting your stats? Too much jargon... Say firings, tell this story in simple words... Wooo Hooo! More Energy...
Spineless leadership. Stand up to trump or get out of the dam way. Let someone with an actual strategy and fight in them take over. Because all I see in this picture is more of the same that helped get us here.
3.2 million folks are receiving retroactive payments due to the SS. Fairness Act. An ave. of $6710. Suggest the Dem. Party set up a Relief Fund these and other folks can contribute to for the 85K VA, 300,000+ Fed workers, 15k Tesla lay offs. Give them $ and sign em up https://www.ssa.gov/news/press/r...
85k VA fired.
300,000 + Fed workers.
Millions who hold dual citizenship Canada, Mexico, Europe alienated.
15k+ laid off Tesla workers.
Plus 10 more of their family & friends.
Total = 11-15 million
Democrats are seeking them out as potential new pissed off members/ voters…Right??
Too much of the usual, status quo, not enough action. We need a true opposition party mentality fro you folks. A truth-based, counter administration communicating daily (365 days) w/ the American public w/ oppo actions that have occurred in the last 24 hrs.
Run if you can! Donate what you can!We are going to have to put our money where our mouth is to stand behind those running against billionaire$ #democrats.org

Also how are Democrats going to counter this? What are the steps? What are the alternatives? There are not enough comments on here for the moderator of this account NOT to see this.
Here's a clip of @parkroseperma.bsky.social asking why @booker.senate.gov is calling Republicans out for applauding lies and frankly deadly visions while also thinking that these are just politics.
I appreciate the sincerity of these Reps Yes there's a distinct lack of charisma w some of these Reps I'm ok with these people being boring as long as they're working hard as hell to help us behind the scenes Just... maybe ALSO up the availability of more powerful speakers on socials & Support them
We’re 30 minutes in and I feel like I’m watching canned talking points given to news media instead of hearing plans to organize the nation. This…..is severely disappointing.
The American public, your constituents are disgusted by your lack of agency. The feckless senate dems were actually angry with house dems for what they considered a lack of decorum. Wake the fuck up! The house is on fire. Useless!
Smart dont have the chat feature up. Have a conversation with me dont talk at me. So far everything coming out of dem leaders has been hot garbage. Time for new leadership. Fact that party cant stand in unison again speaks volume on leadership. You want effective change then shake up the status quo.
Dear Democratic Politicians in Congress.
Stop texting me for $$. I will not donate until you take a firm and constant stand against the GOP/trump.
How about,the house gop has a slim majority, take advantage of that, aggressively! OBSTRUCT!Do more town halls, broadcasts etc. We’re waiting….

Response from a coalition of voters Re:National Update 3.5.2025 AND the Rapid Response Task Force & Litigation Working Group.
This political theater is tedious. Life long democrat here unsubscribing from your pleas for money. Show some courage first. Too many of you voted to censure Congressman Green. Too many of you are weakly whispering protests toward a criminal administration stealing from the American people.
I've spent 30 minutes watching/listening to the most unenthusiastic word salad I've seen in ages. We are way past this folks. We want action not complacency. Where is Pete B. Jasmine C. Rep Stansbury, AOC, Bernie...? These are action oriented people.
hakeem just took money from musk and thiel and is using it to discourage members from rising up like aoc and crockett who arent as depenent on his largess
Thanks for the sources. It's not something I've taken a deep dive into. At the end of the day, he's just not who we need. 🤦🏼♀️ It's like he's in slow motion.
Tell me now how you are going to guarantee we will have elections in 2026/8 and not have Marshal Law declared? Tell me the plan to reinstate all the fired workers, take back the justice system and deport Elon!
We appreciate this effort! But as you can see from the comments dems on the street are desperate for more. We want specific, tangible actions that we all do consistently and a consistent fighting message from ALL dems. This disparate approach is further separating us as a party. We need unity!!
You need to figure out how to flip the script on Republican propaganda which paints Democrats as stabbing working class Americans in the back by favoring “woke,” DEI, and open border agendas. It may not be true, but it is working.
Pray tell what is a "call to action" in this instance? Vote? Sure I guess, if there's ever another election. Call our reps? What do you think we're doing? March in the street? Will you be by our sides? What friggen action do you expect us to take? Send you money? Earn it.
No time to formulate plans to oppose Republicans, all the time in the world to host podcasts. Are y'all answering questions via ping pong paddles tonight?
It starts with the people holding coward democrats like Schumer & Jeffries and their traitorous friends like Fetterman and Klobuchar accountable by stopping all monetary donations to them and supporting real opposition in their primaries.
Some of you sound like you slipped in here from Xshitter. Not all of the elected Dems are good speakers, but they are getting out there and trying new (to them) things. I give them credit for that.
Except they’re not. The few people who are loud, ie Al Green and Jasmine Crockett, are also spitting fire at the spinelessness of the party in general as well.
You guys are worthless, after last night Trump thinks you guys aren’t gonna do a thing. So he is just gonna make law after law after law. We are screwed.
STOP asking me for money until you START representing me in Congress! I expected more -if not all - of you to get up and walk out on that disgraceful SOTU speech last night! I know you are in the minority, so you must at least demonstrate the DISAPPROVAL of those you represent!!
Whaaaaat is this? This is embarrassing. And leadership brings the only representatives who have the guts to stand up for us in for a “talking”today?? Democratic leadership will, ONCE AGAIN, wait until it is too late to act and miss the opportunity that is right in front of them!
Guess what? Verbally saying people’s social handles is NOT ACCESSIBLE. Who was running this stream? You should have had those printed on the screen along with name plates for each speaker.
This was done by people who don’t know how to do digital activation well or accessibility.
You all need to resign.
You are failing at the most critical moment in US history. Your failure to act is giving Democrats the impression you've sided with the fascists.
FUCKING
DO
SOMETHING
WHERE is Pete Buttigieg? THE ONLY ONE who can communicate efficiently from the whole party? He should have DAILY press conference - at the same time - in front of Congress
Jeffrey you HAVE ZERO communication plan,ZERO! NObody feels that you have a strong reaction to what is going on BECAUSE you dont know how to communicate! Where is your central website with daily updates:what you did in Congress, what are the trails, what tramp did & what are the effects on us DAILY
SERIOUSLY ? After zero strategy last night - after no website updated DAILY, after NOT having DAILY press Conf in front of the Congress - YOU HAVE time for podcasts? Lol
I want to support these ppl but YIKES… All they’re doing is reading prepared statements, telling us trump & co are bad (we know), The chat is turned OFF, and their only “plan” seems to be hoping 3 republicans vote with the democrats?! I don’t even understand the point of this call.
I get it. Did you get the DNC email today asking for your input on what you'd do & what you want? I know the 60% I talked to today appreciated Slotkins' message, but 40% wanted more fire. So we need to address the messaging from all sides. We tend to be the actives so it's frustrating.
https://democrats.org/contact-us/ So message them with feasible ideas that you would like to see. I just replied to the message during that live stream, lol.
Mobilization, repeated messaging, new law suits, new voices joining, pumping up voices that others don’t know about, etc. just because you are in the know doesn’t mean others are. Think about every video having to remind people to like, share, & subscribe because new people find them daily.
All this tells me is Democrats are cooked. This is depressing. Making it to the end of this call is going to be harder than making it through my work day.

"a bold attempt to solve the crisis"
We need new members with new ideas. Members who demand change. Members who will hold officials accountable. Members who crave action.
It’s not going to be an easy process, but it will never happen passively.

No, not paddles & pink clothes.
A WALKOUT followed by a presser on the Capitol steps WHILE 47 was still lying live.
Shocking? Your responses need to be!
Democracy is at stake.
Grow some!
And this ain't an inspiring cast.
"Seniority order".. which is the problem with the party

Democrats are refusing to listen.
https://youtu.be/0NNCS08DtiI?si=FtYy1D1j3Jsqmyau
It’s disturbing and sad.
Thanks @kenmartin.bsky.social and @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social
Schumer, Gillibrand, Durbin — OUT
the whole purpose of this kabuki performance is to continue bamboozling the rich donors that they're still relevant
its getting sillier by the moment
everybody knows last night's after adress was a disaster
Walz, AOC, Green and Crockett are leaders
the dnc is like the NRA: pretending to represent the people while only actually representing the corporations
hakeem bamboozled some donors but he cant fool them forever. he cant even post on here without being cursed out
If we wanted to hear your canned, consultant-written speeches we would just read every Dems’ tweets out loud.
Stop texting me for $$. I will not donate until you take a firm and constant stand against the GOP/trump.
How about,the house gop has a slim majority, take advantage of that, aggressively! OBSTRUCT!Do more town halls, broadcasts etc. We’re waiting….
We’re beyond sick of this shit — you want our $ and our votes?
Then you better learn to LISTEN instead of ignoring us.
Handle those collaborators & appeasers voting to censure other Dems & passing crypto deregulation & voting for Trump appointees.

nobody follows hakeem because hes a leader.
our current dem leadearship is VERY effective at fighting aoc and porter (they kicked her out!)
but shockingly and illogically ineffective against nazis

HOLY FUCK... THIS IS WORSE THAN I EXPECTED.
You're not going to inspire people who didn't vote last time if you don't show a spine.
Also *get off substack*. You cannot fight authoritarian extremism on a platform that monitizes hate speech.
We have to fight, strategically, loudly (not everything) not the misdirects that the media care about like Gulf of America —there won’t be mid-terms in 2026 if Dems don’t fight
