JUST NOW:
Leader Jeffries, Senator Coons, and Senator Booker sat on the Capitol steps, watched the sunrise, and talked about the budget fight.
This is what we need—bringing people in and speaking plain truth.

Leader Jeffries, Senator Alsobrooks, and Senator Booker kept the conversation going about the budget fight—and the American dream.
Angela Alsobrooks said it best:
“All of us want the same things for our families.”

We appreciate you keeping hope alive!
It's all great to discuss the problems, but if nobody can fix it or they can't attract anybody who wants to listen, then this is a 'IF a tree falls in the woods does it make a sound?" kind of event.
THIS is what we need more of from Democrats. Authentic conversation about reality, not contrived, tone deaf BS we've heard for ages.
They should keep doing these! People are thirsty for real fighters!
SITTING IN TO STAND UP FOR MEDICAID.
Nothing but endless impotent, vapid, vacuous chatter for no purpose other than staying in the headlines.
But
Where is Chuck?
These are the leaders we need out there, talking with everyday folks, leading the charge.
And us. We also need to be talking with friends, neighbors, family, in community. We need each other in this fight.
💙🦋💙🦋✅✅✅
Head on down there
Live sit-in on the steps of our Capitol
Cory Booker and Hakeem Jeffries and many more
Happening Now
Senator Coons just showed up
My question, Where's Schumer 🤔?
Nice to see them gathering, but what are they going to DO??!!
I wish I was kidding.
We all need to start pressuring our Senators to oust him or their jobs are at risk.

Right on!!
If they fail, resubmit them. And submit them again. And again. And again.

Bernie and AOC are bringing all the people togetherl!!
I bet Jeffries got an “A” in book reports!
🚨NEWS FLASH!
HE’S GETTING AN “F-“ in leadership!
This is a fight, not just for our country and democracy, but for our lives. Cutting science, health care, child care, disaster relief, EPA, etc is going to kill many.
WAKE UP CONGRESS
You cannot ask the citizens to get serious and risk EVERYTHING including their livelihoods andtheir lives, if you are not willing to do the same.
Doing this:
a) forms a bulwark against fascism & capitalist greed;
b) (re)builds our coalitional power;
c) will result in the enduring change we deserve.
Thank you for adding to the conversation! I’m sharing this as a comment to the original post to collect thoughts.
If every single member of congress was like Representative Crockett and Senator Booker — I would no longer fear for the state of our democracy
Many others deserve honorable mention for standing up. I only wish there were more of them in positions of power
I'm not religious either. Church & State are separate for a reason.
And I'll bet my life on it, tRump can't quote a scripture!

Millions must go to DC now & stay until Trump & MAGAts breaking the Constitution are arrested!
Military purge is underway - march now or be 1930’s Germany
What’s your solution?
In conjunction with better candidates, Democrats need to learn how to effectively message
(Democrats should be FLOODING television and social media with SUPER SIMPLE explainers/discussions)
It's going to happen again. Trump & RFK are in charge of Americans getting sick!
AIPAC has given over a million dollars to the 3 of them alone.
Free Palestine.
Excluding Aoc and others doing town halls these clips are just show. Perhaps I'm wrong but we had 4 years to come up with plans of attack and we failed miserably.
Job training here
Mfg. here
Trade
Import/Export taxes and duties and tariffs
and this crypto thing the Fed is endorsing- Is it the biggest scam on monetary history
or legit
we're behind the cur ve ball right now going into 2026
Including the Supreme Court steps. It's them that gave this corrupt criminal arte blanche!
If not near D.C., your own state houses have steps too. "The squeaky wheel gets the oil" & then maybe the media will take their heads out of tRumps ass and cover truth not lies.
Those sites can lead you to more issue-specific .orgs like vets, immigrattion, women's rights, and many others that are also protesting
Start talking to people. Go harder!
It can also mean:
False Evidence Appearing Real
We need to stop the misinformation wars that is rampant. I think some of the ideas I put forth in my previous reply might help!
Fight loud towards action. Dem cohesion with leadership, Messaging, Fight & Action.
Give ppl motivation to call their representatives and senator's everyday.
Their phones need to blow up non-stop.
They need to lose sleep just like Americans/and others are losing sleep over unknown fear.
They need to fear their voters!
May 1st we Protest like it’s 1775 but peacefully ! Because if we don’t then we will end up like 1930 Germany !
We have no king!
Due process is a thing!
If our Congress won’t take action we will!
Talk is cheap take action!
May 1st !

LESS of Schumer
Ebola virus kills 25-90% of People infected. Outbreaks are occur because Ebola is carried by Fruit Bats and transmissible to humans. Survivors of Ebola may remain infectious for weeks or months.

This is a prime example of why America is in the shitter. MAGA is destroying the United States in countless traitorous ways, and the Democrat fools sit around back slapping each other and jabbering about one of the least consequential problems that America is facing.

Strikes me as underwhelming in an age that is addicted to spectacle.
Again, I hope I'm wrong; I'd love our world to be one where calm, public conversations between elected officials about important topics is an effective tool in resisting fascism.

Fear, compliance with a dictator = holocaust. Horrible to use as example but true.
Look up Book Burning in 1933. Then compare reason why with now banning books.
Look up Rosa Parks. That started a boycott and the the Civil rights.
If we don't push back, history will truly be repeating.
Also, just asking for a friend, but did they know they were being recorded?
How is sitting on the Capitol steps chatting about the budget doing anything? Is the bar really that low?
The steps are showing transparency. Letting their voters know. You're more than welcome to join, send suggestions etc, all involvement helps.
The media should stop covering lies & start covering the good like this. 🙏💪
Believe it or not, most are clueless about the budget, so this reaches folks. Everyone needs to know what’s at stake.
Make no mistake, no one’s saying this is the mountaintop, but it’s needed.
Only reason jeffries is there cuz no book signing scheduled.
How can so many cruel, self absorbed truly evil people get elected into our Congresses?
They are, not just federal offices, but even more so in red state houses.
I could go on and on.
Bad presidents yes, but at least they have term limits.
SCOTUS has life time immunity that is killing our democracy
But even with that, life terms is just an invitation to corruption when you have a court that basically can do what they want with no repercussions.
It's always about the money...
*On The Steps*
Every time Dems are publicly discussing issues in front of Capitol, it’s a positive thing. More than just writing a strong letter.
Actions, that's what we need!
We need it asap, like yesterday asap.
Besides, what jeffries can say? "We have no leverage"? Go away!
This will help
We lived in Vietnam for over 2.5 years and I really prefer the mindset from these types of cultures in this way.
S. Korea is a good example. We hope to make a short visit over the summer.
EXECUTIVE ORDER #97561:
"No more watching the sunrise from the Capitol Steps. Violators to be summarily deported without a hearing."

Or did he just borrow her cross on certain days.
This is not fighting back.
This is literally sitting on the bleachers pontificating. Go do town halls and rallies like AOC and Bernie. Go to El Salvador. Go visit the judge that was arrested. Get in the enemy’s face!
I couldn’t disagree more. This is a necessary step as the opposition party.
