If you're wondering why some of us seem more angry at Democrats than Republicans it's because Republicans loudly announced all the evil shit they planned to do, Democrats fund-raised off of it for months, then after losing the election just slunk away and pouted in a pile of feigned incompetence.

I can’t stress enough how important this book is. I’m also old enough to know that fascism has been around a long time in the US and it shows up in different ways. I’m all for obliterating the D party and founding an actual working class party.
That's sticking a knife in our backs.
The democrats ceaselessly say that they have to get your money and votes to stop the conservatives and when they get those they...don't do anything. It's a betrayal.
Most of the Dems are racist and sexist and queerphobic and were probably happy Trump won so they get their tax cuts
Only a handful of elected Democrats are trying to be useful and understand the moment.
Just a handful.
The border separation policies under Trump got widespread attention and public backlash because one senator - JUST ONE - showed up with a camera and was turned away when he demanded to inspect conditions.
And John Lewis held a sit-in inside Congress ffs.
We're more angry at being used and discarded indifferently by elected Democrats who very fucking foolishly don't understand how much danger they're personally in.
We knew the Republicans were evil. Democrats said "trust us" and look where we are.
Look how Trump's shitting all over people he doesn't know, then imagine what he's planning for the people he's directly angry at.
Again: elected Democrats *do not* appreciate how much skin they have in the game right now.
Yes, I'm cynical and paranoid because I'm angrily demanding that the Democrats *do something* and not just give up and go home for a nice cozy weekend, and I certainly didn't provide constructive examples.
Prat.
Bloody hell.
I know we've had our differences, but shit like this is why im a proud fan. And always will be. Even after you block my stupid ass.
And I'll get angry at the group that says they need my money to protect those rights but then just....don't.
That’s how we end up with bare conscious 90 year olds winning elections over fire in the belly under 50 years olds.
This:
1.) Come up with a list of questions RE: Musk's takeover and his teams.
2.) Cloture EVERYTHING, all nominations, every bill, every bit of spending beyond maintaining current levels, every empty condemnation res, until those questions are answered to your satisfaction.
Not can't. Won't.
No feigning necessary.
You have to lead the way! Along with every other American.
On February 6th.
Stay home.
Don't drive.
Don't spend money.
Don't make phone calls or text.
Don't let a single cent leave your posession.
Try not to use energy, gas or electricity etc.
Strike action to this degree will work!
I am more angry at the Supreme Court into thinking this would be acceptable to promote.
pi$$ed off at them!
They should have locked that 🍆 up well before now!
We are dependent upon Republican Billionaires to get any message out because the alternative is handing control to Bernie & AOC types
No more guessing what Republicans may do, we see them.

They enabled this. And in 4 years time they'll probably primary another octogenarian and it'll happen again.
But these stupid dumbshits in the other party were so obsessed with decorum, and comity and pretending it was 1986 again, that they couldn't lift a finger to stop this shit.
It’s like seeing your ex-husband’s attorney having lunch and drinks and yucking it up at lunch with your attorney.
Politicians are all in it for themselves. AOC is the exception to the rule.
It's so short it only didn't fit in one single skeet by 15 characters. Why are they making DEALS to end these committee meetings when they can just use the fucking established rules to delay it?
You mean showing up with intent to *do* something?
