That appears to be 1 dem who wants to keep their seat.

danieo9.bsky.social•19 days ago

How can one Democrat stall anything? They are in the minority. They don't need his vote to confirm any of these nominees.

notimeforbs.bsky.social•19 days ago

Not my area of expertise but I had this article bookmarked from attempts to gather info.

Thank you. These days we're all learning and gaining expertise outside of our areas.

dsg-rr17.bsky.social•19 days ago

I won't pat anyone on the back for finally doing what they *should* have been doing from day one. Especially after someone had to light a fire under their ass and tell them to stop confirming any of Trump's picks!

Spines are being grown! Love seeing it! Thank you, Sen. Schatz.

It should also include getting Elon musk out of the Treasury!

hammerhandle.bsky.social•19 days ago

Stall them all regardless. Fight back!

cajunasfuck.bsky.social•19 days ago

Finally we need more

gloria6262.bsky.social•19 days ago

Hallelujah. It’s about time Democrats stand up against these unqualified nominees. Trump is already most unqualified president overseeing our government with his illegal polices.

cosmosxx.bsky.social•18 days ago

The dem senators should stall everything until democracy is back not just US Aid.

My senator!

gonzo001a.bsky.social•19 days ago

Dems need to bring the government to a half if needed. No more executive orders, no more confirmations, no bills, nothing. Let's see how people will think when there is no government at all. Just like red states want no...

machi5.bsky.social•19 days ago

Yes! Thank you @schatz.bsky.social To my California senators @padilla.senate.gov @schiff.senate.gov What are YOUR actions to block these nominations?

mmthough.bsky.social•19 days ago

And how about for good because they are insanely unqualified and terrible picks!!!???

tbsdm.bsky.social•19 days ago

Until it’s back?! Great, but how about forever.

If you could consider signing this petition (https://tinyurl.com/DOGEPETITION) and sending this form letter (https://tinyurl.com/DOGELETTER) to stop DOGE's takeover of treasury, that would be amazing.

pattiektrublu.bsky.social•19 days ago

This is a good start. In the mean time when, how and who’s going stop Musk’s overreach and security breach at the Treasury Dept and what appears to be a government takeover?

rsthomas42.bsky.social•19 days ago

Yes! There's a TON of shit that can be done. The Republicans have set the mold for an opposition party since Newt Gingrich. Under Obama they drew up an obstructionist strategy that beat a Dem trifecta trying to pass UHC. Dems just have to play dirty and be willing to abuse the system like Rs.

Get a movement going then. ACT. DO SOMETHING. Unite at push them back.

haydonna57.bsky.social•19 days ago

Great! Now get Elisa Slotkin and Gary Peters on Board.

reformomelas.bsky.social•19 days ago

Every Democrat needs to see that the ones who fight back earn our praise.

This is all out battle. Every tool we leave on the table , every single procedural hurdle we decline to put up, every inch we give them - the Dems are complicit in the pain Trump inflicts. We need fighters.

#Indivisible I hear there is a protest planned for all 50 capital cities on 2-5-25 at noon. Is this true? Who is organizing it? It doesn’t seem to have much momentum at all.
