Abbott, Patrick, and MAGA GOP for the billionaires! They know millions of people will be hurting by Trump's bills, DOGE's/,Musk cuts, and Texas MAGA's bills. So they're getting ready to kick people out of their homes!

Fools supporting this that are in middle and lower class don't understand the financial losses they'll be receiving and financial gains billionaires, including Abbott, Patrick, and MAGA GOP will be receiving. College level fees! If this passes, Texans deserve to suffer!

They don't care as long as it hurts people they don't like.

You're voting no on the blank check to Elon CR, right?

Also someone needs to find out how much the MAGAts are paying Fetterman to masquerade as a Democrat.

Yay Elizabeth! I still wear your hoodie with pride.

Get on tv shows and give updates. Do not allow them to control the narrative. We must do better

Hopefully we will see more of the Democratic members of Congress do this same thing, joining Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren in arenas across the country. As the chant from the past goes- Power to the people!!

the1andonlyd-r-e.bsky.social•66 days ago

What are you doing to get Elon Musk out of the country?? He is here illegally. His "citizenship" is fraudulent. He should be arrested, assets seized, and booted back to Africa after a lengthy stay in a federal prison.

the1andonlyd-r-e.bsky.social•66 days ago

This is a good start, but we need a lot more @algreen.house.gov and a LOT less @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social style representation, Senator. I need to see you LOUD. I need to see you ANGRY. FUCK DECORUM. THIS IS WAR. Please, let your colleagues know.

cecilyparker.bsky.social•66 days ago

Not bow down, kneel down.
Now then, what do you plan to do about it? Are you planning done stupid sit in with dumb signs to hold up? OR, do you and your colleagues ACTUALLY plan to make some noise and stop them? We are tired of the constant blather. DO SOMETHING TO STOP HIM!!

I'm going to tell you a joke I wrote today in hopes of making you at least smile, but hopefully laugh.
The price of eggs is getting so bad that teachers are handing out ACTUAL babies for students to take care of for a week.
Also, stop praying for grandma. She's becoming too powerful.

jpl-reader.bsky.social•66 days ago

Okay, now act like it. Speeches are all well and good. But right now we need you causing as much good trouble as possible. Hell, just stop being polite. And any Dem that uses the word bipartisan needs to be name da nazie collaberator and hung out to dry.

dosomethingplease.bsky.social•66 days ago

Read about Curtis Yarvin and Peter Thiel, JD Vance and Elon Musk. The New Right movement is not being reported on but is exactly what Elon is doing with D.O.G.E, aka R.A.G.E. Retire All Government Employees as Yarvin called it back in 2012. Even the Republicans are getting a fast one pulled on them.

dosomethingplease.bsky.social•66 days ago

It’s not Normal Here, it is over there! Obama tried to warn us in 2018 that Trump was against Democracy. One of the most important speeches. Barack Obama: 'This is not normal', University of Illonois, pre mid-terms - 2018

@warren.senate.gov thank you for being my senator. I’ve voted for you every single race you’ve been in. I’m begging you to go on the road holding town halls just like @sanders.senate.gov is doing. He can’t do this alone.

the1andonlyd-r-e.bsky.social•66 days ago

Yes! @sanders.senate.gov should be the guiding light for all dems if they want to keep their jobs! The people are sick and tired of being stepped on and held down in favor of a chosen few douchebags!

Interesting that the Repubs think that SS, Medicare, and Medicaid forms of socialism that will ultimately make the United States a communist state when the President is now cozying up to Russia, a real communist state…sad!

pcalau12i.bsky.social•66 days ago

bro are you living under a rock? Russia stopped being communist like 30 years ago

flyboytom.bsky.social•65 days ago

Agreed that Russia is no longer a Communist country. My mistake.

joyandclarity.bsky.social•65 days ago

Hahahaha... It's only an oligarchy, not communist at all. With a ruler that imprisons anyone who is a dissident, then tortures them, and murders his opposition. Ah, and he has the courts on his side, and a state owned media.

pcalau12i.bsky.social•65 days ago

Yes, it's an oligarchy (capitalism), not a worker-owned democracy (communism). Russia's modern system today was modeled directly after the USA, it's almost a carbon copy of the US's system (which is also an oligarchy).

joyandclarity.bsky.social•65 days ago

Communism 35 years ago- under that name didn't look any different then than it is now. It wasn't a worker owned democracy. I've lived under it.

pcalau12i.bsky.social•65 days ago

How old are you

joyandclarity.bsky.social•65 days ago

Tell me, where is the difference, other than in semantics? Do YOU live under a rock for the past 35 years?

johnrgregg3.bsky.social•66 days ago

Remind me - how did you vote on Rubio's confirmation? Note: I am your constituent, and donor. Shook your hand once at a fundraiser.

johnrgregg3.bsky.social•66 days ago

You are a phony.

racheltkeeney.bsky.social•66 days ago

One difference of opinion, and suddenly she's worthless to you? Maybe you're the phony.

johnrgregg3.bsky.social•65 days ago

It's not the difference of opinion between me and her, but the one between her and herself that makes her a phony.

racheltkeeney.bsky.social•65 days ago

Neither of us is in a position to know whether she has experienced a difference of opinion with herself. She knew Rubio as a Senate colleague and likely voted for him on the basis of that knowledge.
And the knowledge that any replacement nominee would almost certainly be worse.

pdxcorgidad.bsky.social•66 days ago

Pulling your support for her, eh?

Thank you for doing this. As. Many Dems as possible must join you and Sen Sanders in doing town halls and rallies in Republican districts - since their reps won’t listen to them.

actcostumes.bsky.social•66 days ago

Are you telling your fellow Democrats to stop censuring Al Green and working for bipartisanship with Nazis and making sure the CR won't pass or slow it down? No? You're just flapping your gums at protests? We're asking the opposition party to fucking oppose and Jeffries is concerned with decorum!
