Democrats are their own worst enemies.

Sheldon! WTH!!

If you’re one of his constituents, CALL HIM.

sarahmango23.bsky.social•38 days ago

Going to tomorrow. Had dinner with my parents tonight and they will also be calling.

anastygirl.bsky.social•36 days ago

YESSSS! Thank you for doing what you can.

anastygirl.bsky.social•36 days ago

I am not, but i definitely would if I could.

I'm in Missouri and we have a whole collection of trash republicans to deal with.

I'm just so tired.

norwtx.bsky.social•38 days ago

Beyond shameful.
Stain on his life forever siding with a single friend over millions of Americans that will endure tremendous pain & suffering .
Unfit to serve .

NOOOO WAY!?!?😳🤦‍♀️😡

deetails.bsky.social•38 days ago

Come on, Sheldon! Do your duty and protect us from RFK! Geez.

ogjojo.bsky.social•38 days ago

His being a total tool isn't new, but this is the most corrupt GOP in history.

truxmintinbox.bsky.social•38 days ago

Part of me just wants them to do it. Just watch them totally overplay their hands and fuck everything up so bad to where people have to admit it was a huge mistake. But of course that would mean so many innocent people hurt. Just a really bad situation for everyone.

anastygirl.bsky.social•38 days ago

I feel the same way.
I want to watch them burn it all to dust so the proof is inescapable, but also know of the damage that comes with it.

In nature hurricanes and brush fires cause tremendous damage to the natural environment however it results is surge of new growth and restoration. Let's hope for that.

anastygirl.bsky.social•38 days ago

There you go. That's a better way to view it.

truxmintinbox.bsky.social•37 days ago

And just like any natural disaster crying about it won’t matter. We all have to protect eachother and fight where we can until it’s over. I couldn’t care less about the medias outrage headlines for clicks. Media isn’t going to help us, they abandoned us for $$$

anastygirl.bsky.social•37 days ago

Very true about the media. I don't watch any MSM and am very select who I get my info from. Maddox and ODonnell i will watch, though, on occasion.

What a joke

eyenian.bsky.social•38 days ago

@whitehouse.senate.gov you wouldn’t do this, would you?

petergratton.bsky.social•38 days ago

All my college roommate does is ask me to read his poetry.

cindylouwho123.bsky.social•38 days ago

oh ffs 🤦‍♀️

paulliebermanmusic.bsky.social•38 days ago

@whitehouse.senate.gov Don’t betray our trust in your integrity.

texast24.bsky.social•38 days ago

The fact that they are even friends says a lot about him.

laureanne.bsky.social•34 days ago

Communicating to the base and for clicks is not enough.

We’re failing the basic measures of being in opposition: communicating in sync to cut through the noise and their media capture (podcast).

Also, we need a center right / center left umbrella coalition. Basic oppo stuff.

miri100.bsky.social•38 days ago

Does he have an email we can email him?

keepitbluedems.bsky.social•38 days ago

Easy to look up & when you find it, maybe you could share it here?

goldrrhae.bsky.social•38 days ago

Beyond disappointing! Geez…NO!

schaeffer-s.bsky.social•37 days ago

@whitehouse.senate.gov @kaine.senate.gov Senators who advance flawed Trump nominees and legislation will be opposed when the seek their party’s nomination. You have to become an #opposition party and lead, or get out of the way. There’s no middle ground any more.

leftcoasteroc.bsky.social•38 days ago

I’ll believe it when I see it. Good lord.

shatterlo.bsky.social•38 days ago

This is so disappointing.

truthlioness.bsky.social•38 days ago

Call Sheldon Whitehouse and demand he vote No one RFK

gardengirlwv.bsky.social•38 days ago

He should be so ashamed of himself. But, of course, they never are 🤷

feb1958.bsky.social•38 days ago

OH HELL NO!! Where are all these sellouts coming from? Damn! We have chance to make some progress and save lives, and another fool emerges!

gblosser.bsky.social•38 days ago

They have no idea of the power they wield and they don’t care.

fiftyburger.bsky.social•38 days ago

Whenever you see something like this you know you’re in for some bullshit.

tropicalvertical.bsky.social•38 days ago

Jesus, just go fishing for salmon and stay at a fancy lodge together boys. Ask Sam Alito for recommendations. Don’t cause a public health catastrophe that will damage and kill babies and children.
