Time would have been better spent busting into the Musk Republic meeting they weren't invited to. But hey I'm just a voter with no rich people backing me.

Hey, Parkrose. I left indignant messages today for the insipid 2-headed dem leader, Shukies. Told them to READ "How Democracies Die" and "How Fascism Works." Quick, easy reads, guys! Called to thank Ms. Crockett and Mr. Green for good trouble.

bobbyutah.bsky.social•2 days ago

We all need to remind this feckless tool of the oath he swore to our Constitution.
I'm so disgusted with Hakeem's lack of leadership.

pauljtremblay.bsky.social•3 days ago

At this point the Lincoln Project is doing more to speak truth to power and put up a fight against this fascist regime than or so-called opposition party.

The stakes are life & death, so learn to fight dirty & survive this, to fight another day.

lovovmelife.bsky.social•3 days ago

Can the progressive caucus just break off as its own party at this point? Why not?

caeborg.bsky.social•3 days ago

Because republicans have so much of an advantage thanks to the electoral college that even a small % fracture on the dem side guarantees losing.

carolnorris.bsky.social•2 days ago

Electeds who are making "good trouble": the people are with you. The people NEED you. Keep going! ✊💙

I hope we can find out who these folks are who got that memo. This doesn't surprise me. The head honchos in the Dem party are good at this kind of spirit crushing. I watched it happen in Illinois to Marie Newman and have little faith left in the party.

mishie722.bsky.social•3 days ago

I was absolutely floored and disgusted at the dems who helped censure Green, and now this! We're fighting in the streets every day. Those who walked out were the only reps I have faith in and follow. What happened at the joint address was BEYOND BETRAYAL of constituents in every way!

parkroseperma.bsky.social•3 days ago

Seriously, fuck all the way off, Jeffries and Schumer. Your constituents are begging you to get up to some good trouble and you chastise electeds who listen to their constituents and stand up for democracy? History will record your cowardice and will honor those who speak up and act up.

I personally sent emails to both of them a few weeks ago after Chuck was utterly cringeworthy chanting We will win or some other such drivel, & saw Jeffries wanted to cooperate with MAGA!

justaguynamedg.bsky.social•3 days ago

They had their “meeting” recently about moving to the middle and away from progressive values. They were clear in their desire to throw trans people under the bus. The Dems want to become old school republicans. Fuck this!!

cccatlady.bsky.social•2 days ago

Did anyone hear Newsom talking with Charlie Kirk? He was trashing trans people. They are going where all the money is at. On the right, and that is all they care about!

justaguynamedg.bsky.social•2 days ago

I think Dems need a sit down education on what it does and does not mean to be trans. It infuriates me. It is either ignorance or bigotry.

I heard him. I didn’t think that I could be surprised anymore, yet here we are. I’m disgusted with Newsom.

mysockiscool7.bsky.social•3 days ago

No!!!! They need to take a hard left instead. Moving to the middle between fascism and anything is a trash idea. Fascism is not an opening offer

modmans2ndcoming.bsky.social•3 days ago

Remember how people said “if people on the left don’t vote for Democrats the message will be ‘we need to be more moderate because the left isn’t showing up’”? Well….yeah.

caring-is-punk.bsky.social•1 day ago

They're not doing anything for us why should we vote for them?

modmans2ndcoming.bsky.social•1 day ago

They have done a lot actually and you’re minimizing it. You’re also ignoring that voters don’t give them the required majorities to do the transformational stuff people want. You’re also ignoring the destruction wrought by Republicans that needs to get fixed which takes political capital.

hathoruserzengel.bsky.social•2 days ago

I called HJ as well. I offered my support to @aoc.bsky.social @algreen.house.gov , @jasmineforus.bsky.social , and @maxwellfrost.bsky.social (whose staffer had to comfort me)

This party is falling apart and it's time for a new one to be born out of the collapse. I think now is the time and a new party led by actual leaders could gain enough momentum to win elections.

blue-zander.bsky.social•3 days ago

‘Leadership is "very unhappy" with those who went beyond traditional protest tactics like outfit coordination and refusal to clap.’

Traditional. Protest. Isn’t. Working.

This leadership is a disgrace and are letting this coup continue. You’re right Parkrose, they should RESIGN immediately

cinnamonykrkt.bsky.social•2 days ago

Um, vacate their seats, at this time? I hope that’s not what we’re saying. We need to think beyond right now. They may be sus, but line up out ducks first. Do we want to act, then ask questions later.

parkroseperma.bsky.social•3 days ago

I cannot wrap my brain around the way democratic leadership seems to think this is business as usual circa 1992. The house is ablaze and Jefferies is standing in the living room angry people won't help him program the VCR bc they're busy forming bucket brigade.

lovovmelife.bsky.social•3 days ago

Its sort of a sick game theory, cost benefit analysis

Status quo:
Stick = conservative/“centrist” ire
Carrot = corporate “donations”

Meeting the moment:
Stick = potential primary challenges
Carrot = democracy? the constitution? human rights?

Its a simple choice for establishment Dem leadership

blue-zander.bsky.social•3 days ago

But instead of Rush Limbaugh and blockbuster rewind fees we’ve got dept director Danny Boing-boing and soon, no more trees.

⬇️I hope we see more of this. ⬇️
Call them out and ask why they aren’t staying on the front lines like their predecessors were.

melilou21.bsky.social•2 days ago

They really don't understand what's going on do they? We WANT our leaders making good trouble. Those stupid auction paddles were the very least they could do. Rep. Al Greene and the Reps who didn't show up at all are the ones we trust. The rest can fuck off.

covidracer.bsky.social•2 days ago

sorry to break flow but you all need to think about Greenland Canada Panama. You are looking for a focus for the revolt. How does objecting to US Russia style aggression stand out? Or is the betrayal theme too abstract? Did you vote for it? Did congress have a say?

bwonmv.bsky.social•2 days ago

Hey, I just watched your video about Jeffries, and I absolutely agree. The thing is, though, calling Jefferies isn't going to get him to resign. We have to call all the Reps and put the pressure on them for a leadership change, same for Schumer. Love, love,love your videos - please rally the troops!

jessbheart.bsky.social•3 days ago

Hakeem is so clearly, obviously, PAINFULLY blatantly, an actor working for some billionaire that lines his pockets that it's actually hard for me to listen to him speak.

No other human makes me want to punch (figuratively speaking) someone in the face quite as much as this monotone corpo hack.

parkroseperma.bsky.social•3 days ago

I know he is an intelligent man and has historically been a savvy politician so I am left with no other conclusion here than that he is willfully tanking his party and in the pocket of oligarchs. I cannot discern any other reason he is behaving like this.

jessbheart.bsky.social•3 days ago

I am somewhat familiar with his history..

His actions simply do not make any sense unless he's being paid off by someone or has been brainwashed by media into thinking fox news is real and people love trump and hate progressive ideas..

Which I find hard to believe knowing he can count past 12.

@hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social @schumer.senate.gov I read in that article that @repstansbury.bsky.social was one of the people you called in for this meeting. She was just holding up a sign and she got ASSAULTED by a GOP rep and you’re holding HER accountable??? Gross as fuck.

maraquinn.bsky.social•1 day ago

MORE AL GREEN!! Less Hakeem!!

yenni3.bsky.social•3 days ago

At the very least, the GOP stands by its own, no matter how reprehensible they may be. You can’t show the same solidarity for your incredibly talented and hardworking reps. Instead you chastise them for exercising their rights during the country’s plunge into fascism.

anniem2025.bsky.social•2 days ago

Booo on Jeffries booooo booo he should have walked out with Greene in support , instead he stayed so president could call him a lunatic, and berate the party. If this happened with your husband
They call that emotional and mental abuse domestic abuse

diananicholettejeon.com•3 days ago

Totally agree wth you. They should be doing more Al Green and less Hakeem.

maraquinn.bsky.social•1 day ago

Oooo, that's catchy, no? "MORE.AL. GREEN! Less (small pause) Hakeem!!" as a protest chant?? (though it only works for those of us paying attention who will understand that references but still, nice Diana! :)

carolnorris.bsky.social•2 days ago

💯

Additionally, all one has to do is read the first paragraph of this article about the Dems recent strategy meeting to see how tragically unprepared they are to meet this moment. Profoundly out of touch with the zeitgeist. 😩😱🤬 (I continue to call my Electeds.)

boxeramore.bsky.social•3 days ago

10 democrats voted to censure Green. You don't vote against your own party without the go ahead from leadership. House majority leader, Hakeem Jeffries could have whipped the vote but didn't. His name and # should be added to the list! They all must be primaried!

The SOTU was the first time Democrats had a face to face with Cheeto Jesus and muskrat since January 20th. They should've have ALL disrupted the speech and told the public that a fascist coup is taking place. We're being set up.

You have to fight the battle you are in. Guerilla tactics aren't fair nor civilised, but neither is war. Standing in a line with spit and polished uniforms will get you killed. In a fight for survival, you have to get in the mud & dirt.
