Can they not be called “shadow” though?
We’re tryna bring things into the light, not hide things.

Keep leading us. You are doing what works.

Dems...get out and fight.

🇨🇦🇺🇦Even Canadians are aware of the vitally important work you are doing to defend your democracy.
That’s why we are pushing so hard back—
The Big Squeeze from all directions is the only way to defeat authoritarianism!
Damn, we miss Biden! 🇨🇦🇺🇸

Yes. Yes. Yes!

When Congress was going after the mob, they took their hearings to 14 different cities across the nation. This is what Dems need to do. Not just blue cities. But, mid-size in red/purple areas. And if they won't back Congress in a month. They really need to do this with CEO's etc.

keelycahill.bsky.social•3 days ago

They need to treat it like they are taking down the mob. And in front of middle America.

Great effective advice!

I know nothing about media but they need to be on Fox News or wherever regular citizens the red hats get their news. They will be censored so there is that.

Pete Buttigieg was good at this.

The best.

Is HVC 215 a fucking zipcode? No you say? Then you're holding it in the wrong fucking place. Get off your fucking asses and off Capitol Hill and get out here with the people.

Publicize these!!!

alohagirlmlk.bsky.social•3 days ago

I hope that democracy prevails and those responsible (ALL the GOP who have been complicit) serve community service and or be thrown in jail if it’s proven they broke the law!

People need consequences!

hyekeen.bsky.social•3 days ago

Yes, finally!!!

House Democrats are doing quite a bit. But the message isn’t getting widely pushed to voters. Here’s a video Jeffries and other Dems posted yesterday. Need to FF through the first eight minutes.

Glad they are doing this yet maybe they'd want to break it down into manageable sound bits rather than something 1+ hours.

esmdindivisible.bsky.social•3 days ago

I’m just glad they are doing it and talking about what they are doing. Our job is to spread the word.

lwhb.bsky.social•3 days ago

Agree

teedogg.bsky.social•3 days ago

Thank you for all you do. There is no doubt that Trump is the pied piper of evil. Our saving grace is that he's also incompetent, as is everybody around him. It's not surprising that evil exists hand and hand with stupidity.

Make sure to include veterans every time!

proudunionmember.bsky.social•3 days ago

This is good, but they need to hold town halls around the country like Bernie.

arktoi.bsky.social•3 days ago

Its only about fu*king time they did. How many people needed to shout from the rooftops about this

awrinkleinthyme.bsky.social•3 days ago

Invite the AP

helencaton.bsky.social•3 days ago

Great. How can I watch and share these hearings?

azolig.bsky.social•3 days ago

Amazing. But can we talk about the 10 DEMOCRATS who voted to censure Al Green??? I am sooooo angry about that. Every single one of their constituents needs to call them and tell them to fuck off.

fight4peace.bsky.social•3 days ago

Can you please influence them to get a digital media *strategy*? I was on the CO town hall last night with Hickenlooper & him learning social media just now is disgraceful. I am putting a draft outline together on how it can work. I’m a IndivisibleNoCo original member.

carrie-the-one.bsky.social•3 days ago

Can we get Jeffries some public speaking coaching as part of that effort? I’ve only seen him in a handful of interviews but consistently comes across uncanny valley to me he’s so awkward on camera.

lucyksy.bsky.social•3 days ago

Better late than never. This is such an obvious tactic to take. What has taken them so long?

sfh65.bsky.social•3 days ago

@hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social isn't showing a link to BlueSky 🤔

beprva.bsky.social•3 days ago

Meanwhile - several Democrats just voted to censure their own while backing down on censuring MTG just 2 years ago for the same thing.
Most of them just sat there saying and doing nothing to back up Al Green.
Face it folks: There's hardly anyone left in Congress to defend us from Fascism.

azolig.bsky.social•3 days ago

I know I was so upset when I read that this morning. What is wrong with these morons???? I’m still really angry.

jerzybsalm.bsky.social•3 days ago

Where are the Dems streaming these hearings?
