We have rescued apathetic, cowardly, weak, Dems for 8 years now. Begging them to do their jobs, to have backbone, to have morals, to remember the Constitution is finally a bridge too far.
Unfortunately, I live in Florida. I called both Republican senators (Rick Scott a/k/a Voldemort and Ashley Moody) and told them exactly what I thought. No one answered (surprise). But if they don’t grow a set and start doing their jobs, they’ll go down in infamy and we will NOT forget.
They will cave be cause they're weak & serve the same masters as the Republicans.
Both my Senators from AZ & my Representative voted in favor of the Laken Riley Act.
They ALWAYS do this.
DEMOCRATS, HOLD THE LINE! 🚨🔥
AOC is RIGHT! Are Senate Democrats seriously about to cave to the GOP’s corrupt spending bill?! WHY are they bending to Republican pressure?! CALL YOUR SENATOR NOW — tell them to stand up and VOTE NO! NO COMPROMISES! 👊🔥
Why the heck would Schumer whip in favor of a bill that Jeffries whipped against? They MUST start working together and putting out a consistent message. This is ridiculous!!!
Durbin's and Duckworth's phones are either jammed to the maximum, or they both decided to ignore constituents by directing them to send an email on their contact pages.
Called Schumer DC and NYC numbers. Left msg: Name, adr. Ph. Said don’t just vote no w/ a Senate speech. Grab the mic from the criminal cabal and say WHY the bill is a fraud and why it must be defeated.
Unfortunately. I have weak ass @fetterman.senate.gov. I’ve already called his office but he’s already bent the knee. No worries PA and Pittsburgh dems are sick of his weak ass and can’t wait to never fucking vote for him again
Although Senator names are on the sheet, I was placed on hold. I hung up and then googled my senator’s number and left a message. Only four more to go right now.
Also, I recommend the app 5 Calls if you wanna make quick calls and you want talking points .
Called Rep. Mike Kelly's office and a worker answered. I requested the NO vote on the republican spending bill. I informed them that my 81yr. old mother w/ Alzheimer's has spent her life putting her money into SS and will lose everything if he votes yes. They said they'd pass it along. Prayin hard🙏
AOC needs to tell them, WE ARE WATCHING.
Centrists and other Republicunts will be removed. If you don't stand against the republicunts....you are one, in our opinion.
I don't think this is something to do lightly. Remember the flak that hit the GOP when McConnell led the charge on their shutdown? I'm also worried about what Trumsk will get up to in the absence of any restraint whatsoever. I'm not against it, just unsure. If you can explain, please do!
This brand of 2025 Democrats will not cave they are for the most part fighters and they are not submissive. The People who are caving . The Republicans sell you people a pipe dream and you bought. All the fight now that is going on is democrats doing it. Republicans in Congress are very weak!!!!
Our founders were horrible people They wrote flowery words on paper. All that trump the Republicans the democrats are doing is restoring the country and the system to their factory settings Genocide slavery exploitation landtheft and no rights for anyone but the rich
AOC TELLS DONALD TRUMP DONALD DON'T STEAL MONEY FROM AMERICANS ! IF YOU NEED MONEY DONALD YOU NEED TO PIMP OUT THAT HOOKER WHORE WIFE OF YOURS MELANIA TRUMP !

My senators are Republican. So I called the New Hampshire
@shaheen.senate.gov . She's not seeking reelection in 2026 so she doesn't have to be scared. (202) 224-2841
I swear if any of them vote yes, I’m going to be fucking pissed. I don’t care if they’re being threatened. If they are, they should be recording it, reporting it, and sharing it on social media. Everyone has a phone, just hit record and send.

@shaheen.senate.gov . She's not seeking reelection in 2026 so she doesn't have to be scared. (202) 224-2841. Or somebody else! They need to hear our desperation. They might belong to one state but their vote impacts the whole country.
You should watch what Sheldon Whitehouse has to say about this. If some type of budget is NOT passed, and the govt shuts down, a tremendous amount of power goes to the OBM to kill more departments by just not reopening them when the govt is reopened.

It won't matter! Most Democrats became as much of a problem as MAGA for the American public the moment they ceded power to a known fucking Fascist tyrant with zero push back!
I expect that Dem Senators are weakening either because they’re actually just Republicans in disguise,
or they’re AFRAID of being blamed by Republicans,
which is absurd,
but Dems are easily intimidated,
I think it is the latter, mostly. Dems, barring a few, are completely spineless in the face of the toxic GOP bullying, which is largely why we are even here now.
You got that right. To tell you the truth, I’m kind of surprised that Republicans didn’t try a takeover sooner.
Most Dems are wusses. Just look at the 9 who voted to censure Al Green.
Dems have definitely been wuss enablers to the GOP abusers! Sadly I think the GOP's timing in taking over the government after their post-pandemic gaslighting about Dems helped them out. I can only hope people will finally wake up to their games and lies, but I won't hold my breath.
They have been paid. No doubt in my mind. They aren’t doing anything out of fear. They are destroying our democracy because they have been paid. It’s greed.
Any Senator that vote yes should be voted out of office by their constituents next election because that bill is taking food out of the American people mouthQ
Sorry-I don’t think we have a choice. If we don’t pass it, government shuts down & we take a big hit, to eventually cave in anyway. It will open the door to infighting which will be public. Again, how many days can they hold out until they cave? The house left-there is no one review any other bill.
I hope you’re right. I really do, but I don’t see how shutting down the government is going to do anything for anyone but the GOP who will be cutting ads immediately claiming we are hypocritical. The ads write themselves.
Dems need to get a communications person to help. If this CR passes, it makes all the cuts he’s done legal. We can’t give him that. Dems need to get in front of that and start being more direct on the why.
Come on Mr Jeffries grow some and defend this country.!! They will say you crashed the bill but it’s the republicans who should pass the bill, it’s their baby, let them be the losers either way, if all Republicans vote they will still suffer.

He talked a good talk, and then almost immediately flipped which side of his mouth he was speaking out of.
It's not our fault people lie to get power, but we can vote them out (among others things)
#rankedchoicevoting
Doesn't matter. Still worth calling so they have a sense of the temperature of the constituents. It's the same reason backlash at R town halls is crucial.
I did that immediately when she asked but I would bet the farm and the firstborn that Schumer will be bombarded with the revelation of what his constituents expect of him and it won't mean Jack Shit.
We'll hear the blather about how he's doing it "for the American people". And he'll get re-elected.
Can't we all just make nice and agree to get along? No, no we can't. Not when we have fascism on the doorstep actively working to take our democratic rights and freedom from us.
FTFM, we can’t be nice or polite anymore. These bastards are trying to kill us financially, emotionally, mentally, spiritually and they don’t care about us at all. They’re on a mission to destroy America and its citizens anyway they can and get rich doing it. Wake the HELL up America!
My senators are Republican. So I called the New Hampshire
@shaheen.senate.gov . She's not seeking reelection in 2026 so she doesn't have to be scared. (202) 224-2841
Trust me, any Congressperson, at least those who intend to run for reelection, are very aware of constituent opinion trends on issues and the volume of calls. We need all hands on deck. Please call.
I agree! This might stop the total dismantling of our government... or at least slow it down. We need to stop the destruction of our democratic government. If not, it will become an authoritarian ruled country.
My senators are Republican. So I called the New Hampshire @shaheen.senate.gov. She's not seeking reelection in 2026 so she doesn't have to be scared. As a government employee, I'd rather endure salary loss for a month or more than have the whole government gutted by that lunatic Musk. (202) 224-2841
And make sure they understand that you know what the cloture vote means and doesn't mean. Don't let them fool you by voting for cloture and then voting against the CR. Republicans need 60 votes they don't have.
They don't care about constituents, they're making millions on the market. And plan to rack up even more when buying up foreclosed properties and businesses. All their in it for is their own purse. No phones will be answered either.
It is this. We are at the point that calls keep the pressure to not make it an easy act.
Anyone that’s votes yes… Have already made up their mind about what part they want to play in this. They are compromised and need to be removed by the people.
Yeah except Germany is a significantly smaller country and elections aren't centrally controlled in America. There are way more guardrails compared to the Weimer Republican.
Of course they are going to try to do everything to cheat but like I said elections aren't centrally controlled so it will be significantly more difficult to pull off. Not to mention we could be preparing like considering having armed protection outside of polling places.
Well I have done that. I obviously got the answering machine from Collins office and King had people answering the phone. I sent an email to Jared I am really a republican the only democrat in congress to vote for this mess.
Just curious are you with dRump? Or dems now to save our country?
Thanks for trying..
Can post to dems here often! On this and other issues.. More 👀 see them so the know thousands can see 1 post... 🌷
So please correct me if I’m way off in this, but, with all due respect, our current government, under this administration, is BROKEN! Maybe, like fixing a frozen computer, shutting it down and rebooting isn’t such a bad idea. 🤷♂️ I have an open mind and will listen respectfully to arguments. THANKS
The problem is that they are dismantling our democratic republic in order to replace it with authoritarian rule. While what we have is flawed, it is democracy. I guess I would ask if you want authoritarian government?

Let them vote how they will
and we will vote how we will.
And Kirsten Gillibrand
If Dems want to be independent, they should stand as independents.
Both my Senators from AZ & my Representative voted in favor of the Laken Riley Act.
They ALWAYS do this.

It will lead to the same outcome.

Dems in Congress have virtually no power; what they do have, they will fritter away by voting for Trump's constitutional death budget.
IT'S A TIME FOR ACTING!

SEE the BIG picture:
Hold the line: Don’t play ball with maga!
Defend the People you were elected to serve.
Reject maga’s continuing resolution funding bill.
Hassan especially and Shaheen!
This slide isn't as fun as the one at the waterpark....
How many have come out against what Trump is doing? 2? 3?
Dems need to clean house too.
Tough talk for the camera and then wimp follow through
NM rules.
or they’re AFRAID of being blamed by Republicans,
which is absurd,
but Dems are easily intimidated,
which is why we are here now.
Most Dems are wusses. Just look at the 9 who voted to censure Al Green.
Their behavior is not surprising to me. They do what their donors tell them to do.
HOW ????
….is a complete sentence!

I called both senators! 💪
Done! 👍💙
Shut It Down!! And while you're at it, will someone please arrest those three criminals. (Selling cars without a license?)
Wake Up, America!!!
1. Complicity is not weakness. It's a choice.
2. Because it's been a choice for so long, we did nothing about it, and we're out of elections (upcoming at least), we're powerless.
3. We'll forget by the next election, run no primaries, hold no vengeance. Sorry.
I just need to know…who?!

I'd call him anyway. Oh, and advise him straight up, you're not voting for him again!
They don’t have any democrats.
Save us and our democracy. Do not support the GOP in anyway.
i called anyway
We'll hear the blather about how he's doing it "for the American people". And he'll get re-elected.
Maybe he is not well!

In truth, there is no government to save.
MAGA have violently attacked our Capitol and filled our government with grifters & fascists.
If Democrats help MAGA out of this mess, we'll know America is dead.
Anyone that’s votes yes… Have already made up their mind about what part they want to play in this. They are compromised and need to be removed by the people.
It’s hard to tell what works in a broken system.
Jacky Rosen is "on the fence". This isn't a tough call, Jacky.
Not happy about it, and her office knows it!!

I remember writing postcards through Indivisible for her campaign.
How soon they forget …
