DEMOCRATS IN CONGRESS: there have been times when you controlled the House & Senate, yet Republicans still found ways to block your legislation.
DO THAT TO THEM!
And—since the GOP won’t hold hearings, go home to your districts & hold mock hearings yourselves. Let the people see what’s really up!

Fun fact: The Squad voted w/ Repubs against Dems more often than Manchin & Sinema.
he's overwhelmed, clearly
step down please
there are brilliant young women who can step up
NOT THIS FUCKING TIME
This wasn’t Obama/McCain or Obama/Romney
This was Harris against a malevolent, narcissistic, traitorous, Neo-fascist Felon and EVERYONE should have rejected it.

I hate RFK.
I despise that fucker Trump more.
Let us redirect that energy with purpose. There are blue pew pew ranges there are also protests to talk to different characters. Libraries can be very helpful. Find your path!
Remember they lie and manipulate~ it can happen anywhere.
I saw this coming years ago.
Americans are going to have to stand up.
Jesus told these boys and girls to keep their religion out of the public square.
Damn good advise.
You need to watch the whole thing. Don't fall for the whole news manipulation BS. The amount of fuckery this cherrypicking has wrought--is fucking absurd. You don't want to know.
If you watch the entire thing you won’t feel much better.
The GOP are squabbling and cannot pass the budget w/o the Democrats. He made that point before. That's their leverage.
If you think it's his job to block legislation, he can't do that.
HSJ and other House Democrats have been speaking out and telling people what is going on. The complicit media isn't covering it.
Please say exactly what you want him to do.
But when he doesn't go to the podium, people ask "where is he?" and "why isn't he getting in front of the cameras every day?"
It's a no-win situation.
Then people will be complaining that getting arrested makes it easier for Republicons to get a majority vote...
It's rage-bait.

We as voters failed to give Dems the power to stop Repubs. It's up to us to change that & flip 3 open Congress seats & 2 open Senate seats.

BLOCK REPUBLICANS LIKE THEY BLOCK US.

Jeffries outlined his strategy for the budget ordeal in a couple places. I'll repost them once I dig up the articles and stuff.

What would mitch McConnell have done to barack obama?
THEN DO THAT.
Jeffries is strategizing for his future position of power, but if he doesn't risk his career NOW, there may not be a future for any of us, even him.
You should watch the full video of the press conference.
And have been since 2000, when SCOTUS stole the presidency from AL Gore & installed dick Cheney.
It's been building from there.
Ya, I don't think being temporarily in the minority is the problem.

I really hate this talking point.
Who's responsibility is it to get their message out to the voters?
Is it "The voters" responsibility? 🤣
It seems some are too busy pointing fingers anywhere they can to accept ANY responsibility.

99.9% of Americans will never hear it.
Meanwhile, Musk and Trump are marauding government offices, carrying out their coup.
Hakeem: If you want to give a speech, for Pete's sake,
1. GET ANGRY.
2. TELL US WHAT YOU'RE DOING TO STOP IT.
3. Tell us how we can help.
These Trump/Musk people are ATTEMPTING A COUP. Getting along and being courteous with fascists isn't a good approach to saving our democracy.
As Charlie Chaplain said, "I dont' shake hands with Nazis."
Use their playbook; time to stick your neck out for your constituents or they’ll stay home instead of voting!
Dems in Senate will filibuster actual legislation but the house hasn’t passed any yet
Dems got 2 recons through IIRC with only a majority. But it’s limited to $ budgetary things. Can’t do things like voting rights or abortion in reconciliation
Confirmation only needs majority.
Who are the enablers in management doing this foul work.
Name and shame.
Dox for defence.
And remind them the last carriage is for them. That’s how it works.

And, they're GETTING AWAY WITH IT.
The message from Jeffries and Democratic leadership SHOULD be:
WHY is this being allowed to happen? WHY doesn't the GOP Congress care? How does this help Americans?
Vote SAVE BILL down!
Do anything to grind those fascist gears to a halt.
Meet with your constituents to tell them what’s happening and how they’ll be hurt.
Importantly what we all can do to resist and fight back.
I’d like to see pro democracy groups form to discuss actions.

And the Dems passed a *ton* of pro-social legislation during the two years they had control in 2009-2010, nearly all of it budget-bills, because you only need a simple majority to pass budget bills, they cannot be filibustered.

We need to start electing adults willing to stand for the Constitution, the People, the Country.
Asking the crowd where they are headed, is not leadership.

He needs to project power, whether he has it or not.
And thereby create power by influencing public opinion, that’s leadership.

Isn't that why they keep the filibuster in place?
The GOP used that to block legislation when the Dems controlled both houses and the White House.

Granted, we need to take on the leadership roles as people. I mean, we underestimate our power. Their power comes from us.
Democrats are working for the oligarchy. Stop voting for them entirely. They are traitors of the working class.
The working class needs a new party, and dems spend millions blocking any other parties from being on the ballot.
