Texas Democratic Rep. Al Green brought protest and persistent pushback to Trump’s joint address to Congress.
Rep. Green wants America to know “that there are some people who are going to stand up [to Trump].”
As “a person of conscience," Green believes Trump has done things that…

I appreciate his fortitude.
He has more courage in his little toe than every Republican on the floor combined.
Go, brave & liberal USA, please, GO!
Too bad more pics were not posted
I like how @schiff.senate.gov observed Trump's reaction.
I'm certain we watched the start of a very tough period for the GOP Congress.
If they're so afraid of Trump,then Senate and @housedemocrats.bsky.social sold make them even more afraid of them.
Good on @algreen.house.gov
But, we need more of this. And maybe throw some tables.
MANY Democrats didn't attend the SOTU, at all. Senators and Congresspeople both just SKIPPED it.
So the only Dems there were the ones who either wanted to make a statement...
Or they wanted to BEND THE KNEE.
We are WAY beyond polite.
I’m not saying I don’t value the Dems who are fighting “in their way”, I’m saying it’s OK to say, the QB and coach we have for THIS game is not gonna win it for us…. it’s the biggest Super Bowl of the last 248 or so years.
There are ~330 million people living in the U.S.
Think about the optics of the Dems sitting there while a bully repeats grandiose lies, and he and his cronies laugh about people losing their jobs among other things. Being on their phones did not do it for me.

Where’s the FREE SPEECH #VileVance #VenemousVance lectures everyone about???
We will follow his lead but some of us won’t be nice
They could have all been Al Green, but instead they let him stand alone and be made an example by this regime.
Is it so important to honor the office when the holder is a self-declared dictator?
Where were your BALLS last night when @algreen.house.gov stood up to Trump? WHERE WERE ALL OF YOU who went to the SOTU last night? WHERE was the outrage? We're calling you all opportunists for media & BS when you sit there silently.

This is how you represent!
Bow to the POS!
SICKENING!
Last month, Rep Green announced he would file third articles of impeachment after Donald announced the U.S. would move to take over the Gaza Strip.

the stills of him shouted like a Maori warrior
he stood tall against a history of maga idiocy
Al Green is an American hero contrasting
with the American Nero bombasting and what a scene
but he isn't one one-hundredth of an Al Green

"This whole budget that he has is one that is going to cause Medicaid to be cut, and when he said he had a mandate, it triggered something. It really did. Because he doesn’t have a mandate, and he doesn’t have a mandate to cut health care…
One sign "this is not normal" and a few "lie" signs do not a resistance make.
Stop the bullshit.
Rep. Green stood to protest — and stands for truth.
[Note: Rep. Green introduced the first articles of impeachment against Trump in 2017.]
By the way, Rep Green was also first in Congress to introduce Articles of Impeachment in 2025

escorted out for protesting. Some outward displays of courage, along with meaningful actions against Trump's seizure of power no president should have is needed...NOW.
It's called strategy.
It's working really well 🤷
I see yr POV.Keep the pressure going up-up-up:call&email the Senators every day.
Go to town halls.
Be in their faces ALL the time.Both Dems &GOP:it'll help Dems&psych down GOP.We want GOP2get depressed
The dems have been wimps for far too long. Big reason why the US is where it is.
Be interpreted by the Russia party as standing for Trump a actions
He has been the only Congressperson who has repeatedly called for Trump’s impeachment since his first term. Just because you think you don’t have the votes is not a good reason not to impeach.

They ran the people over because we don’t have strength representing us
There’s no one they fear up there. If there’s a brawl, we would get pummeled.

Republicans toss an old Black Man out on his ear. How weak.
