I know that we all celebrated when people who claimed to be journalists got arrested before. But when it happens to our beloved propagandists, then it becomes a problem for us.
That man works for the United States Government, not for the President. The statement itself is a violation of his oaths as a lawyer and as US Attorney. Every defendant prosecuted by his office should move for change of venue or for dismissal of charges for improper political influence.
I am signed up to his newsletter and have attended several rallies where he was speaking. No Democrat is meeting the moment right now. We need an army of John Lewises. Not more legislation, not vague denunciations. Civil disobedience, boycotting the State of the Union, shutting down the govt.
Yup. The person who responded to me is now copying that response over to others raising the same issue. High score for efficiency, but effectiveness is a question mark….
Kindly, what are you doing about it? Our Senators & Congressional Representatives will not be able to do this alone. All of our institutions are weak and we are the minority in office. They need us.
I organize protests, I attend union rallies like USPS yesterday in DC, I show up @ community organizing events, I volunteer in my community, I've written/phoned 100s of voters in swing districts, & I help build grassroots power with an alternative political party. I'm not asking them to do it alone.
Well, then, I’m glad you didn’t ask ME that question. 😊 Seriously, though, I don’t understand what else they can do- besides press events & procedural blocks.
I understand that in a very real sense we are on our own, but also, I don't think we are wrong to demand our leaders with all the resources at their disposal meet this extraordinary moment with extraordinary action.
*walking thru police lines at fed agencies and interrupting DOGE I mean.
Other things mentioned are boycotting the State of the Union, holding a massive unified presser (or many) with all Dems present, and shutting down the govt until illegal actions stop and Medicare/Medicaid/SocSec are safe.
I mentioned a few things in a response to someone else on this thread. What I think many of us are begging for is physical defiance of illegal unconstitutional power grabs, like walking thru police lines. It could also be Bernie Sanders style barnstorming events or other newsworthy challenges.
I wonder if they need concrete suggestions and planned events to attend? From my volunteer work during the campaigns, and their bios, none of our representatives, nor their staffers struck me as grassroots-organizer types.
Looks like perfect fodder for the “weaponization committee” - can someone provide to MTG and explain it to her very slowly in words she might understand?
I guess I’m naive because I thought the UNITED STATES Attorneys General work for the American people not T. We The People pay their salaries. Is this a c**p?
Stronger action is needed by our Representatives. The Fascist playbook is at play by the Republicans and they will continue to implement this destruction of democracy, how will our elected officials stop this before it’s too late
And what are you going to do to fight this? You are in fact one of our elected representatives.
Start thinking outside of the box. Otherwise there’s no reason for us to look towards our elected reps for leadership. What is your relevancy and purpose in this moment?
And what are you doing about this, and every other authoritarian move made in the past three weeks? The strategy of “hanging on” until the midterms is destined to fail-if the Democrats don’t start hitting back hard there’s a good chance we won’t have elections again.

I don't want tax dollars spent on #Krasnov lawyers. I want my tax dollars to protect US citizens.
When is it time for us to jusy stop funding this shit!?!
My point is that citizens shouldn't be paying for a President's personal lawyers. That is not their job description.
Curious minds we are out here. ⚖️

Lead the people. That's what is needed.
We don't want to sit and watch the country we love end.
But we are not organized and led.
Get your head in the game, and get out of your chair.
Organize your people. Lead your people.
This fight takes all of us doing our part.

To lead, or become a news anchor
As an American I demand that you protect your constituents.
