They're discussing it like they're talking about whether or not a tomato is a fruit or vegetable.
I hope they did but from what's posted here, it just looks like they wandered over and politely stood there.
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Did you read it?
It is not blocking or deterring action nor reaching the MAGA is it?
Telling me what I already know will save us from fascism?
This is fricking phoning it in considering the circumstances.
Booker is trying but House and Senate leaders are AWOL and there is no plan to meet the moment.
#NoMedicaidCuts!
Idk what good it will do but at least they are out of their offices and doing something. Anything.
Fox spews earworms all day long while Democrats scramble to get 30 seconds on a major network where they're asked why they're not doing more to stop trump. 🙄
Blather!
Elise Stafanik, GOP, NY-21 constituents should pay attention too!
Plus they both voted for the ‘women voter suppression’ -
SAVE ACT bill months ago!
Shameful.
That's not a protest.
We LOVE seeing this #GoodTrouble!
DNC "leaders" abandoning entire states - not even running candidates - is part of what got us here.
🤔
Democrats motto should be 'we're really angry, but we're not going to do anything about it except post to social media'.
Make it make sense.

The ultra rich DO NOT need more tax cuts.
The poor and disabled DO need access to health care.
The people who voted for Trump
and the 90 million people who didn’t vote asked for this.
We did not! FFS!

Thank you thank you thank you.
Cory, he cannot get the plane. Say NO to the spoiled whiny traitor rapist baby.
No wonder America is on its knees 😡
#Resist #Reject #Restore
The wealthy continue to get richer whether they pay taxes or not❗️
a) the protests are working to make the most vulnerable nervous (keep calling and protesting)
b) they DO NOT want their constituents to realize they are set to cut $880 B from Medicaid and MORE
c) they are at odds with each other
Push Hard Now
Your calculus is now this; it's very simple
Move against the administration
The first ones to do so will be labeled 'courageous' and 'patriotic', while the last ones to do so will be primaried
You are in power, now

If you march at a busy intersection, use the crosswalk and erupt in thunderous noise as you cross. Then, let cars go, wait for the next signal to erupt again. Repeat
Blocking traffic gives police an excuse to stop you, _and_ letting cars go gets the word out to more happy drivers!

Start with conviction; bring a friend, make a plan, make a habit
Say it out loud and say it often:
"This is wrong"
Then,
Insist
Resist
Persist
so like:
• a cardboard tank with lovely comments for him
• lots of lovely tank-tops worn in the streets with fun words for him
• a dirty fish tank with one big orange fish swimming in filth
• gas tank
• 'tank'-ing the economy signs
...
Thank you, Senators @corybooker.com @schatz.bsky.social @smith.senate.gov We cheer on your GOOD TROUBLE.
They can say no at any point, but refuse.
More of this, please!!
