There is something vital about showing up and sitting in, and confronting the assholes face to face, or marching into whatever building Elon and his acolytes are currently occupying and dragging them out by their hair.
Yea, but it would be nice if they'd let us know they're doing something. We don't need details, meeting minutes and a running commentary...but some reassurance that they are doing more than just posting how bad Trump is on social media, would be welcome.
I agree. They are impotent, still trying to appeal to red and blue. But the best strategy may be to just let Trump run over everything and let America suffer awhile. Then the backlash will come in 2026 and 2028.
At the rate they're going, there may not be elections by then. They've got muddy footprints all over the Constitution now; they're likely ready to trample it completely to stay in power.
Dems need to get tough & threaten Fascist GOP for trying to destroy our Constitution with a wannabe Dictator Trump who idolizes Hitler!!! It's only been two weeks, but this "SHIT SHOW" needs to end now!
If for know other reason than to communicate the level of serious concern we should all have in this moment. They were elected to lead, not simply react.
Yes they should and it should not be focused their own fear. We the People have the right to KNOW they are going to stand up for us. There are too damned many of us to operate a true democracy and we have chosen each of them to represent us. Do your job!!
We should all make up a spreadsheet of all of our House and Senate representatives. Take some time every week to find and enter every single vote they take and every public statement they make. Then, find how you can get that word out WHERE you live to people LIKE YOU between now and 2026.
Dems in Congress should start acting like an opposition party! Hold hearings. Do press conferences on Treasury Department steps. @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social @schumer.senate.gov @housedemocrats.bsky.social @senatedemocrats.bsky.social, stop being complicit in your inaction!
They have no power the maga christofascists are in power. The similarities are astonishing hilter and herr trump rise to power using the same rhetoric,behavior and the same tactics SIC SEMPER TYRANNIS
They are silent. They need to be out verbally attacking Musk and every fascist member of the GOP. Jeffries has been too robotic and cautious in his rhetoric. Schumer has been a complete joke.
And a party that only respects "norms" and that we're not allowed to criticize, according to some Dems. Whether they want to see it or not, a reckoning is coming one way or another.
While I think there were games being played, November has shown us Dems have really just about exhausted all their voters goodwill. They have to step up.
The people are not asking for that much compared to the rest of the developed world.
Yea but like how a dude has learned helplessness/misogyny kind of way/ it feels vengeful to me- and shitty and I’m beginning to hate them more than the obvious villains. Because it feels goddamn PERSONAL
Their caucus needs to meet in person. The Vichy Democrats need to be named and tarred. The Trumpanzees aren’t the only problem.
For too many years, enough Democrats have trickled over to help them to pass evil legislation.

They already had such a session…. MSM doesn’t report on it because it’s‘boring’….
The main issue here is that VOTERS did this…. MAGA has majorities and the minority has limited options to oppose.
Dems need an alternative media dedicated to their agenda like Fox does for MAGA.
Per Wyden:"Sources tell my office..Trea Sec Bessent has granted DOGE *full* access to this system,...Social Security and Medicare benefits, grants, payments to government contractors, including those that compete directly with Musk's own companies. All of it." https://www.commondreams.org/news/musk-treasury-access

I wish they'd show some kind of...motivation...that they actually give a damn.

They know they don't have the votes to impeach the first ever FOTUS.
But here's a thought:
Why don't you start motions to recall all MAGA Congress that betrayed its oath. Specially the party switchers?
The people are not asking for that much compared to the rest of the developed world.
1) want the US to get a taste of what they supposedly voted for, to feel the pain & suffering then to use that political power in the future OR
2) they just don't know what to do.
Either way, they are or feel helpless right now.
