What will you do about it? Asking as a NYer.

Vote for someone else in the primary

Torres: "I reject & resent the implication that Congressional Dems are simply standing by passively."

You don't get to "reject & resent," asshole. Especially when it's true. You get to LISTEN. That's your job. We're telling u what we expect of u as our representative.

"I reject and resent the implication that congressional Democrats are simply standing by passively,' said Rep. Ritchie Torres."

Ok, but hear me out — have you tried not standing by passively?

Legalized blackmail.

Hey Ritchie, you’ve always been a terrible conservative but can you stop whining to Axios about how mean dems are to you when you just want to ignore your constituents and hang out with republicans for the next few years?

SHAME on Kathy Hochul. She could have removed Adams and save NYC a lot of embarrassment and further trouble.

That creep is running again. Who needs the aggravation.

"I reject and resent the implication that congressional Democrats are simply standing by passively," said Rep. Ritchie Torres (D-N.Y.).

Then do something

Have you and the other Dems considered a strategy that isn't standing by passively?

justinobrien.bsky.social•14 days ago

lol, lmao.

Ritchie Torres is actively to blame for the mess we’re in.

He rejects and resents that implication, Sir! 🤣

And you're comprised by AIPAC money. You're s# corrupt as any other asshole in office. So blatant that you attack your constituents for daring to call your offices.

The irony of you out of all people talking about someone else being compromised. You are Israel's bitch.

j-playz.bsky.social•15 days ago

Compromised? Pot, meet kettle.

terrifiedstill2024.bsky.social•15 days ago

Yup

Some Democrats are standing up for what's right. Are you finally going to join them?

Tell @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social no Democratic votes on a budget until Elon's coup is shut down.

I'm glad you are taking a stand about Adams.

kdub31.bsky.social•13 days ago

Agree. Adam’s has been compromised, but so have you. You carry water for @aipac1.bsky.social and have done much, much more on behalf of that foreign govt than for your own constituents

Rep. Raskin proposed class-action suit against Musk by all US citizens for security breach of our data. But that's Federal. Would civil suit be subject to POTUS pardon power? If, instead, people in each State files a civil suit, would 50 state-court civil suits filed against Musk have any power?
