In one week, President Trump’s glaring weakness has done more damage to 80 years of bipartisan U.S. global leadership than all our adversaries could do, combined.

lguap0.bsky.social•3 days ago

Well said, Senator.

visiblethink.bsky.social•2 days ago

Time to join Canada perhaps 🤔

schiff.senate.gov•3 days ago

We must ensure Ukraine receives the support and assistance it needs to defend itself against Russia’s unprovoked war, not leave this country to fend for itself.

What ally will trust the United States now that our president has so badly betrayed a fellow democracy?

What's your plan of attack??

carmsblue.bsky.social•3 days ago

Uhm? I’m still waiting for that number to our military? I want them to physically remove them from office. They work for me as well as my fellow Americans. So? Either give me the number or call them? I’m pretty sure millions are on board with me. Hand us the number! We got this….

How would the USA ever be able to form a coalition of allies should the situation arise?

gander22h.bsky.social•3 days ago

Not sure what you mean by a "fellow democracy". Ukraine still is a democracy, but the US has ceased to be. Perhaps you can fix that?

veronicatess.bsky.social•3 days ago

America is not to be trusted. Trump can not keep his word

creatureofhobbit.bsky.social•3 days ago

And Ukraine has every right to make alliances with other countries for its own protection.

Trump is fashioning himself into the American Putin.

Start investigations now. Don't wait for midterms Don't wait for Republicans. If you all need to hire private investigators do it. Start getting people on the record

nowaynohownadanada.bsky.social•3 days ago

And what are you doing to achieve that? Where are the multitude of bills Democrats have introduced to stop this insanity? Why aren’t you and others demanding to get access to Musk?

vbarth-wehrenalp.bsky.social•2 days ago

This administration is serving us Europeans to Putler on a silver plate. We never doubted what a #47 identical to #45 would mean, but we had no say in this decision.

Ukraine is also fighting for Europe’s safety, but it is about to be thrown under the bus like the rest of us.

Do you have any Republican support on this? Are any of them willing to do what needs to be done?

crookedbridge.bsky.social•3 days ago

Apparently they are all scared shitless of Trump's MAGA goons value their office more than their Constitutional oath. So, no.

shoulderoforion.bsky.social•3 days ago

not. a. single. soul.

tealee914.bsky.social•3 days ago

Uh, we're losing our democracy, Senator. Apparently we're aligning with dictators now. If the Constitution is torn to shreds, which regime will our military support?

liblar.bsky.social•3 days ago

Kill the spending bill unless it includes robust support for Ukraine.

shoulderoforion.bsky.social•3 days ago

I don't think they've got the votes to do that

liblar.bsky.social•3 days ago

The Republicans will most likely need Dem votes to pass the spending bill. They have the majority, but it’s expected that some hardliners will not vote for the bill as it is.

shoulderoforion.bsky.social•3 days ago

and i don't believe that, would be excellent, but in this climate, when it comes down to the vote, they will all fall in line. if i were a betting man, and i was known to be in my youth, i'd go all in.

gumshoeless.bsky.social•3 days ago

Senator Adam Schiff,

Might you and House Rep Eric Swalwell use your considerable political skills to organize a #dailypublicbriefing to counter the daily flood of lies?

We have got your back but We also need Democratic leaders to LEAD America away from fascist tyranny and oligarchic greed.

gumshoeless.bsky.social•3 days ago

Yes. Here is the chance for Congressional Republicans and Democrats alike to stand together in support of continuing aid to an invaded and besieged democratic ally, Ukraine.

tezzerrk.bsky.social•2 days ago

While 🍊💩🤡, Elon🤬👹or another maga are in charge why would anyone trust the US to do anything except Putin’s bidding!

falcon0077.bsky.social•3 days ago

What's the plan? Dems need to get it together or we're all done for.

grumpydoc19.bsky.social•2 days ago

The intelligence services of our allies also face the daunting task of explaining stuff to Gabbard and Hegseth (hard to smell his breath when you are on an encrypted phone line).

kjkillackey.bsky.social•3 days ago

And…? I think you forgot to post the rest of the thread where you outline what Democrat Congress members are doing to ensure this…

shoulderoforion.bsky.social•3 days ago

yeah, because there isn't any constitutional authority which has been held secret until now, and by flipping the switch to the secret 4th "in case of fascism break glass" branch of government it stops the complete disassembly of domestic and post war order

pinkpetal.bsky.social•3 days ago

Has he called you Shifty Schiff lately? 😅 Or does he forget who you are now?

I'm disappointed in you and all other Democratic congresspeople.

fijit1.bsky.social•3 days ago

We love you Adam but please look directly into the camera and ask America to organize. Ask us to be peaceful, respectful and intelligent and ask us to be seen and be counted! Your concern is not going to get it done. Ask, demand, that the people take action. Thank you.

deprongmori.bsky.social•3 days ago

Action plan?

You have a pulpit here. What is the Democratic Senate actually *doing*? What do you want *us* to do to support those explicit actions? How do we get rid of Chuck Schumer?

Did you all learn nothing from McConnell’s obstruction as minority party leader?

84240g.bsky.social•3 days ago

And what will you do to ensure that Ukraine receives the support it needs, right now?

They'll trust us if Trump, his entire administration, Musk & illegal trolls & the entirety of domestic fascist GOP Senators & Reps were in prison for their attempted government overthrow.

Our allies, NATO, UN, EU would help us round them up. So would the majority of our military.

We'll have no allies. No country will ever trust the US again when our citizens are so stupid as to put this clown in office again.

djangobde.bsky.social•3 days ago

No shit? You are one of the most powerful people in this country despite being in the minority. What are you doing to remove the failed Schumer from his undeserved leadership role? You were a waste of my vote.

djangobde.bsky.social•3 days ago

Honestly. There are plenty of journos, pundits and experts to give insight into what is going on. We don't need to hear it from Schiff. Tell us your plan. How about organizing people to rally behind a real fucking plan.

Good evening Senator Schiff. I will get straight to the point. Why is Elon Musk a private citizen allow to have unfettered access to Veterans Data? Also Elon Musk has major conflicts of interest. When are the Democrats going to deal with this criminal?

“We must ensure the US receives the support and assistance it needs to defend itself against Trump’s unprovoked war on democracy, not leave this country to fend for itself.”

parkerdw.bsky.social•3 days ago

None. For their benefit, our allies should never trust us again. We’ve proven to them that we can go from a stable government and trusted ally to chaos at the flip of an election over eggs, gas, and bigotry. We are one gaslit nation.

sleepygardener.bsky.social•3 days ago

No ally will trust you any more. And even if in the next election - if there will be one - the Democrats will get the presidency back, no one can rely any more on a stable US democracy for more than 4 years. Unless you win over some Republicans to get rid of Trump the US is doomed.

How the hell are you going to do that now, I’m sick of politicians getting on social media making statements but I don’t hear any action or plans🤷‍♀️🤦

Pretty much no one. He shouldn't have been allowed back in...the judicial branch of this country has been an epic failure...from the Supreme Court on down. Everytime he was brought up on charges-even with evidence...he was set free.

shoulderoforion.bsky.social•3 days ago

Who's this "we" white man? We is Trump's government, and last I checked he had full control over both houses and all 3 branches. What are "we" supposed to do about this? How can "we" ensure anything at all anymore? What's the plan stanley, now that you're speaking for "we", and not I?

nfngnome.bsky.social•3 days ago

Mr. Schiff, may I make an observation. Trump talks to the judges of SCOTUS, I almost bet daily. Why don't you guys go talk to them and stress that they are the last line of defense and they can't let down the people. They are the 3rd branch not the 2nds branches pets. Do it publicly to their face.
