Like how exactly???
Ranting in television interviews? Twitter memes?!
Oh! I know! Let’s do another congressional investigation of something that takes months and then does ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!
The Leadership of the DNC is totally inadequate to the fight we face. We can’t win with this leadership.
It’s been time. Mine came fully off on 11/17. I embrace my intolerant left and don’t eff with me. No respect at all. None. Now, to get our US representatives to get on board.
might be a hot take - while I am both disgusted and horrified by the results of the election... it wasn't stolen. No one is disputing the tens of millions of votes from solid red states.
so... half the country wanted Trump.
the left needs to examine that. not go on the offensive prematurely
We need to put pressure on Biden & Dems to put up as many guardrails as possible. No matter who it offends or how much it breaks "precedent". Just do it.
I also believe the Dems have not been at the same nasty, gloves off level. They should and must wake the hell up. Dark Brandon started the ball rolling now. I cannot begin to express the sheer joy I felt hearing that Hunter was pardon by Pres. Biden. It’s the first good news since the election.
We make our plans and execute. Some will trade blows; others will resist with non-violence (see my pinned skeet.) If everybody does something, the effects will be consequential.
Dems, as a strategy, need to take their gloves off and play as dirty as MAGA. We're always the party of nice. We need more politician agitators and flamethrowers like the GOP has
It's so difficult for them to go on offense. It's been part of their mentality for decades. If they can't change their mindset, it's over. Look at the reaction Biden's move is causing among Dems already. They're mortified.
How is it that not one of our current leaders is questioning the election integrity? 60+Russian bomb threats at polling places? Richest man on the planet teams up with the biggest fraud on the planet, helped by foreign enemies. Evidence, facts,not conspiracy theory. But our leadership? Crickets
The real trick maga pulled was to make such obviously unfounded lies about election fraud, so when they actually committed fraud we couldn't call it out because we would sound like them.
I do find it strange that after all of those bomb threats, nothing. Looking at how many votes were cast just for trump in swing states. All the fuckery Musk was doing with his lottery. The access they had to voting systems to find vulnerability for 4 years. Nothing?
I am astounded that they just rolled over and accepted the results like thos was a normal election. They asked for no recounts. They questioned nothing. I am so disappointed.
I always wondered about that. then I see the only times the democrat party spring into action is against racial justice and anti-war activists and against progressives. those are the only times they fight hard and react fast. starting to think the dem party are not exactly on our side.
The Democrats were aware that the election was being manipulated yet they did nothing to intervene
They kept insisting that this election was not typical but where is their response?
Republicans played dirty with no accountability and they knew that Dems would be too soft to fight back.
Agreed. Dems are so afraid of questioning the election integrity, as if obvious subversion/suppression/purges are somehow too taboo to discuss. Guess what? That’s exactly what MAGA villains were counting on! They had 4 years to shore things up-an utter failure to protect and dereliction of duty
I don't agree. But there's no doubt Musk played a big role, along with the Russians on his platform.
By the time the election came there was so much BS flying around a fair election based of the best candidate, wasn't going to happen.
Musk is going to make BILLIONS more now https://bsky.app/profile/maxchch.bsky.social/post/3lblqru2wu224
Republicans haven't shown a spine in more than eight years and Democrats haven't been much better. Business as usual didn't cut it. The election results are real. Apathy won along with disinformation, misinformation, delusion, ignorance, racism, sexism, bigotry, greed and a lack of empathy
Agreed. I hope the Hunter Biden pardon was just breaking the seal. I wanna see some completely unapologetic Dark Brandon sh*t. Take a page out of the Republican playbooks. Find the loop-holes. Abandon the norms.
And to all the self righteous dems… STFU. AREN’T YOU TIRED OF LOSING?
You mean take the blindfolds off. Democracts are scared of asking for a forensic audit, where there is evidence of fraud by a man who has lied & cheated all his life.
Why? Because they are worried about being called conspiracy theorists by a man whose every accusation is a confession or digression.
RESIST and FIGHT MAGA fascism in large and small ways everyday. Boycott companies that buy into MAGA policies. Roughly 1/3 of our country voted for Trump. WE are the majority.
I lost faith that the Dems will do anything, weak, spineless party. No one believed them when they said Trump was a threat to Democracy and now they are acting like he isn't one.
No wonder we lost, we deserve it and I won't be fooled again.
Yes Rachel!! I feel like we’ve been screaming into a void. This article should be shared everywhere and the writers should be on every podcast! Let’s start punching back!
I appreciate this coming from you. The surreal nature of the silence from this administration has been as surreal as the news that Trump had been elected. There has been no pushback to save our Democracy from Trump and Musk. It's been frightening. Biden pardoning his son makes it all the more real.
Reading that the Trump Trash is "snickering" at Biden's transition "normalcy" makes me furious. I truly hope the Bidens, after attending the inauguration, dismiss the WH staff and leave the doors locked. Please, please, please?
Absolutely right Rachel! We’re still here, actually newly here to Bluesky, but nonetheless, HERE! Much love and admiration to twins!! We BELIEVE them! We be always have!
I know! For 10 years I keep thinking they must have a plan that they have to keep quiet about before they act. 😆. Not. Was this all in the plan? Have they secretly surrendered to Russia?
TEN YEARS we’ve been waiting for the Dems to act. I just heard them described as living in a “West Wing fantasy”.
They are so cushioned and protected from anything we the “not rich” people are going through. They make millions off stocks, best health care, pensions, and are not gonna give that up.
It’s because we are sick of being wrong all the time. I argued on X that Joe wouldn’t pardon Hunter because Joe had integrity and honor unlike Trump. Looks like we were all wrong. Probably been wrong about all sorts of things.
Dems don't have gloves to take off. Nor do they have the stones or heart to do anything worthwhile. That's why they keep losing to the bottom levels of humanity. They think the high road makes them better, but it just makes them doormats. When the repubs destroy everything, then maybe they something
Gloves off; bets off; rules off. We’re not playing by standards MAGA don’t acknowledge exist. The Extreme Court gave Biden unlimited power for 49 days. Now fix the damn mess you made with it. We’re not cleaning up your Orange Gatorade spillages on the ⌨️ of American democracy when you have a grenade.
Biden should have been "gloves off" from the day that he was inaugurated. Since the DOJ has proven to be utterly useless, we desperately need Biden to try out the powers that Trump intends to use on day one. Biden needs to make up for lost time. We all can see the political hurricane coming.
Call your congressmen and tell them you want them to help Schumer draft a bill that would bring to a vote how Trump is an insurrectionist and 2/3 of congress are needed to excuse him from that ban or he cannot hold office!
As a '60s drafted veteran, with much to lose from the likes of Ramaswammy in Trump's ear, I've been posting on people's pages and trying to mass with the 2026 and 2028 troops. I may not be here for either one, but I'm fighting hard against all the chaos he brings to our needs and hopes.
It's not over. Greatest Psychics in the World say shit is about to hit the fan. High Treason with pUtin did not go unnoticed. There is a limit to the debauchery, and Elon is going down quickly. What tRump did is unforgivable, and so filthy no one can forgive him. I predict video of a poor child too
Indeed. At the legistlative levels, Dem controlled states need to take a page from red state obstructionism and assert the supremacy of the 10th amendment at every opportunity. At the federal level, take page from Ted Cruz and exploit every legal stalling tactic possible
I hope it's gloves off, at all, ever, because I am unimpressed with the way Dems "fight back" or even how they "fight" because I barely ever even see resistance. Just lots of concessions and moving further right.
Oh and telling us to “fight” and calling it the “resistance” by posting sht on social media while elected Dem officials do nothing.
It’s ridiculous. They served up democracy in a silver platter.
You can try. I hope we succeed in this fight, but we need some of our Dem leaders to actually fucking do something. This bedwetting by the party leadership is tiresome.
The more I read, the more it seems that the MAGA world has taken over the media, combined with the podcast world Dems have failed to get their message out.
This needs to change somehow, but with an inner cabal of folks like Elmo they may continue to buy news outlets, reminds me of Victor Orban.
Dems have NOT failed to get the message out, the truth just stopped mattering and “alternative facts” took its place. People chose to ingest fear mongering, hate, and lies over the ugly truth.
Good luck with that. First, Pelosi and Scumer gotta go. They're weak, we need fighters, ass kickers, and not elites worried about optics that fold easyly like a cheap suit when confronted with fighting the MAGA nazis.
Fuck Pelosi and Schumer. They’re not the party leadership at least not who I’m talking about. They both need to retire and get the fuck out of the way.
Yes!!! Fighting fire with fire and not powder puffs - Let’s hope that Dems see that we can be Baddass and do the right thing - that should be our motto for the next 4 years - The Badass Tour
Agreed 💯 Unfortunately, “punching back” isn’t the strategy that the Democratic leadership and their donors (overwhelmingly white and male ), like to execute for fear of alienating white voters who no longer vote as Democrats. (Since 1965).
I'm not affiliated with any political party, but maybe it's time Democrats stopped allowing Republicans to run roughshod over them and started defending themselves and this country like it matters.
I fear for your husband. I'm not just saying it. I really fear for his life. trump wants badly to unalienable someone, anyone. He wants to line up offenders and have a firing squad!
I can't believe we HAVE to go through this!
Your husband and his brother are true American heroes.
Thank you for your support of democracy! Let us resistors know what we can do to help as the next administration takes over. Your family’s courage is inspirational!
Well, he is objectively one of the smartest men on the planet. There’s no way you’ve accomplished what he’s accomplished without incredible insight and intelligence. Do you think you’re smarter than Elon?
Got it. Internet weirdo who has to post in an echo chamber thinks he’s smarter than the guy who disrupted the banking industry, oil industry, internet industry, self driving industry, social media and commercial space industry. You make me ashamed to be a lefty.

Consider a follow for @indivisiblevent.bsky.social; their calls-to-action are spot-on ... a couple examples:
1. Ask Biden to commute the death penalty for those who remain on federal death row NOW!
Don't we all know what Trump will do?

Repackaging shrewdness and petulance as insight and intelligence is his biggest asset. It’s a form of intelligence but it lacks wisdom.
