I think it's hilarious that I just got an email solicitation from Tim Kaine a few days ago asking me for money, and he still pulls this shit. Just another reason for me to feel like I'm doing the right thing by giving them nothing.
I live in Michigan and am very disgusted with both of our Senators. They voted yes on quite a few of the nominees. Not all of them, but far too many of them. 🤮
Definitely supporting anyone who primaries Kelly or galliano or whatever the hell is name is. More than half of their votes went to the Republican nominees
@housedemocrats.bsky.social has an account here but haven’t posted anything. Why not? Are they just posting on pres musk’s site? That’s what’s wrong with information sharing now
The budget still passed.
THE DEMOCRATS ARENT DOING ANYTHING. They are just messaging, so people won't yell at them, but effectively, they haven't done anything to stand up against Trump.
Republicans always seem to be able to block progress, but Democrats are somehow always powerless.
I agree that the outspoken opposition to the republican takeover could be more vivid. But I think we're cannibalizing the fight if we blame dems for things they can't change. And they should protect the midterms, it doesn't look as if GOP plans to give power away in case they don't have majorities.
I’m not just blaming Dems. This is definitely on the gop and their voters but Dem leadership could be slowing down the implementation of all the crazy legislation the gop is ramming through. I want Dems on the news each night up in arms over project 2025. Where are they? This is soft ball stuff
It isn't easy to understand the mood in the US from sitting on the fence in Europe, there're massive reports over falling popularity of GOP. I imagine dems to be weary bc the GOP base is still with the orange mess. Just a guess: Do they want to keep the powder dry for the moment Trumps ratings fall?
They're liberals, do you expect them to be decent people? The party literally support genocide and their leaders are still held up by brainwashed imperialist Americans as paragons of grace and compassion.
With what votes should they do something, according to you? repubs have the three branches. What, exactly, should they be doing what they aren't doing? They vote against but they don't have a majority, repubs do. Repubs don't need to work across the aisle. They have the votes they need.
They can do what the Republicans did under Obama when they technically didn’t have the votes. Filibuster everything, bog every single vote down in endless procedural red tape, just generally be assholes.
The answer is the grass roots. Town halls are becoming nasty, DOGE staff is resigning, quit orders are rescinded and now we find out elon is hiding behind a woman who is “on vacation” in Mexico. It’s unraveling.
It's the absolute LEAST they can possibly do.
The very least, minimal amount
This Congress of Dems is pathetic.
In the face of a live coup, they stand around and tweet.
Umm what are “we the people” doing? Are you economic protesting? Did you join the https://generalstrikeus.com? Are you going to town halls? Remember these are ELECTED people. They represent ppl who go vote. Over 50 million voting age ppl didn’t vote. 50 👏🏽 Million 👏🏽 Don’t 👏🏽 Vote. So this is what we get.
The outcome may be ordained in the House, but the Dems can filibuster and refuse to pass it in the Senate -- IF it is made loud and clear that the people demand they stop this giveaway to the billionaires.
They'll need dissension among their own which would surprise me, but there may be some staunch fiscal conservatives when it comes to the budget.
Mostly I expect caving jellyfish🪼
good now the Republicans can only take one defector, but they'll all vote for it. So the only thing that will work is if some republicans grow a spine so No, it's gonna pass.
They need Republicans on their side - and those Republicans need to commit. At the end of the day if they are being threatened or promised things, they need to realize that the promises probably won’t come, and the threats will be moot if the country falls into a complete dictatorship.
Let the people see what they have put in power. Then vote again in 4 years to change it and stop it for good..if they are hit in their pockets maybe this will make them realise they have chosen the wrong person to lead them
More like two years for midterms. Get talking, get involved with people. Anything from tenants’s unions to board game groups and knitting circles. TALK. Things are not going to be normal anymore. I don’t know that we’ll even have a fair presidential election. Community is action.
Well, a good start would be winning the two Florida special House elections, but they're both in pretty red districts, so I'm not holding my breath. I did donate to both candidates, though.
Agreed. I just meant we can’t wait two years for things to change, what will be left? I’m now giving money to groups like ACLU that I formerly would have donated to Democratic candidates.
Well..great, but we need at least one republican to stop them from passing it, so I hope someone in the democratic party has something on one of them that they do not want to be brought to the light of day or we are screwed.
I wish Democrats would run on raising taxes for the wealthy and big corporations to pass Medicare for all and free college education for our kids. Those two things would raise the quality of life for so many Americans. Bernie has it right. Well, to be fair, he almost always has.
So we don't use it. The other side is going to use it regardless. Plus, social programs are the most popular in use today. Additionally, after Trump and DOGE ravages the federal workforce and they lose access to these programs over the next 4+ years, these would be a most welcome change.
I know. I hold the media and the administration for that. We can do some sniping online and pick off some of the lies and spread the word, but it wasn't enough. Every Dem. in Congress needs to spend some time online with independent news sources like Meidas Touch, and BTC, along with the MSM & Fox.
Maybe it's time to say fck the donors. We need to find and fund a leader who holds these as their values. Grassroots donors gave 10's of millions of dollars to Kamala's campaign after Biden pulled out. We need to show them we demand these changes if they want our votes.
Past time, but they won't change unless forced. I worry that by the time the Dems finally wake the fuck up, I and everyone else like me will be dead, in concentration camps or forced back into the closet.
It is funny that you think the mid-terms will actually achieve anything. **IF** they happen, they are going to be a blood bath for Democrats as Trump and Elon will certainly rig the election from the inside. I'm sorry, but you are living in a fantasy.
Do Americans really think that there will be another free and fair election!? With Elon having his grubby paws in there, the outcome of any 'election' will be predetermined before a single vote is cast, they will never surrender power! Sadly, America is fkd, hopefully the rest of the world survives!
tRump even said something along the lines of, "Just wait. In another 4 years you won't have to vote again!" The fact that people didn't see that for what it is is terrifying. I am hoping that people will rise a la français. I believe that is likely the only way.
Well, we certainly can't wait four years, that was my point!
I live in a blue state so I can't help with changing the party in control any sooner, but FL and NY certainly can change things in the next two months with their respective elections!
And hope the usual shenanigans aren't pulled? Florida always screws with the votes so Republicans can win. I have no faith at all in how this state is run.
Yes. Daily press conferences, override the media with content and give them everything they need. Strategic thinking is needed. Not just blocking, but action.
How about they just dog pile the Republicans when they’re on their own catch them by themselves and beat the living shit out of them till they can’t fucking talk enough to vote. Let alone start a new Nazi regime.
The only good Nazi, even ones in Congress, is a fucking dead Nazi
Jeff Merkley and Ron Wyden (both D-OR) doingTown Halls (PACKED!) around the state - and yes! They took questions and talked about the state of affairs! And
And encouraged constituants to keep calling and sending emails! To band and stand with others in our communities
If you mean sending people to the hard of hearing number, sure. Ringing off the handle. It states they think you have a problem. 😳 and not a hearing problem.
It is a start but the reality is they do not need any, they can ram this through with GOP only votes. We need to be prepared, we need to speak up and step up, we need to find that good trouble.
Not necessarily. The freedom caucus splits their votes, sometimes. And at least one Republican has said publicly that they can't vote for this budget with it's Medicaid cuts. There's a little hope.
They abandonded those values under Trump 1 and ran up a record deficit. That was the old GOP who climed to support asctual policies, now it is whatever Trump says they make excuse for, period.
Every damn maga one of them will have to publicly announce, to their constituents and to the world, that they want to cut Medicare, Medicare, and Social Security, raise taxes on most of the country, to give tax cuts to their owners. I think then they need to have another round of town halls.
And I expect them to look like the town hall we just saw, where pivate security in dark brown shirts dragged a dr out. Fascists crush disent and use the fear to silence others. We cannot be silent, we must be prepared. What I wonder is will enough of us actually raise our voices?
State of the Union? You mean "Story Time with Donnie" don't you? Whatever comes out of his mouth will be 100% lies. No need for the responsible half of Congress to show up for that.
What they should do, if they insist on being there for sitting down
is when he walks in, THEY ALL GET UP TOGETHER
file outside, then give a press conference to AP NEWS and whomever else has been kicked out by White House
Steal his attention, he absolutely hates that and will foam at mouth for days
This news is what I would expect from Democrats, and would be really pissed off if this wasn’t the case. They need to talk some sense into 3 or 4 republicans. Or there any sane Republicans left? You know the ones that preach Fiscal Responsibility.
There's got to be 3 or 4 GOP in the House that owes a Democrat a pay back vote/favor from "back in the day". There's got to be a few GOP skeletons in the closet that could be brought out to see the light of day by the Dems. Somebody's got to know who is dirty... It's all fair game y'all.🤨
Oh the irony. Dems once again doing nothing—in this case by intentional inaction—that might actually prove to be something. Hardly the spit & grit required in this bare-fist brawl to save our republic, but it plays into the Dems strength of do nothing.
If the SSA, Medicare, Medicaid, Dept. of Ed, the Park Service, The VA, all must b cut because the gov. spending can’t b maintained, how come we’re still giving trillions of $ in tax breaks to the corps & super wealthy when they already don’t pay the same percentage of what I pay or nothing at all ?
$Billions more to Musk. No regulations for him. Just more $$$$$. Now he's in charge of the FAA technology. Maybe he'll get paid even more! Why not just give him our checkbook?
The government is now paying for fascist musk’s star link. His companies also now get the work from the government agencies he gutted. Corruption slapping is in the face while he mocks us on Ketamine.
CALL YOUR REPUBLICAN HOUSE REP, LOCAL AND DC OFFICES
- TODAY’S CALL TO ACTION
Right now the House Republicans are trying to pass a budget framework making previous tax cuts permanent. Trump wants the House version. We prefer the Senate version, without tax cuts attached. House Dems are a united NO.
It's especially galling to see pastors talk about how the devil flies coach and to have mega mansions. Meanwhile people freeze to death on the street, folks get buried in predatory debt and others die because they cant afford medical care.
Blue states should withhold sending federal tax money to the government. The governor May said if Trump tries to take away funding from Maine she will withhold the federal tax. If she’s planning to do it, so should all the blue states let them fail.

YESSS! Do this for every vote. It has clearly been established that maga Nazis stand for NOTHING GOOD. So Dems should never give them even a single vote on anything. And make sure Fetterman hears about this over on the Senate side.
It won’t be enough to stop it from passing though. This is the least I would expect from Dems at this point. What needs to happen is having constituents from Red States to show up and loudly protest against this ludicrous bill….🤬
Excellent! I’ve called and emailed many times too. The reps from Idaho refuse to even acknowledge either calls or emails, except to send emails asking for money…ha! Like that’s ever going to happen, both are Repubs 😆
They have the majority and no 218 votes needed anymore. They will pass it without them. Like they do in the senate. They haven’t needed 60. 52 is more than enough. Only Dems need to follow the rules. Haven’t you learned that?
It is the way - and we the 99% need to stand with them and ACT. Congress cannot save us. We are the heroes we’re waiting for. Turn anger and frustration to action NOW. Donate or join orgs in the fight including @indivisible.org @democrats.org
@aclu.org
@sanders.senate.gov
Resist!
No, they aren’t, and I really wish people would stop talking like this because it creates the expectation that the Democrats will save us. The Democrats were elected to be lawmakers, not leaders of a rebellion. That type of opposition has to come from elsewhere.
They aren’t leaders, they have no power. They basically road blocks and that mentality obviously needs more rebel energy to make them say no. Democrats what to find “common ground”. There needs to be a Republican style secret meeting where they agree to disrupt everything.
My personal Mirror? I’m god damn fucking pissed at all the fucking “democrat” voters that need to be “inspired” to vote. An actual government intelligent person would not need a fucking Beyonce in a massive arena to understand you need basic governmental awareness.
Gov is supposed to boring!!
The vague it burns!!!
Republicans went full asshole and the country followed along.
If going full asshole stops fascism I’m ok with them. Throw everything against the wall to see what makes stupid egg price people pay attention is where we stand.
WRONG. Pussy Ass Bitch folds like a cheap suit when pushed back. That's the entire problem with bullies generally and Anus Tangerinus in particular. No-one has the fucking guts to call their BLUFF!
They're going to blame the democrats first before they blame the people who are making the decisions. Mark my words, when it starts really hurting them, this will be Obama's fault.
Have already heard Bama in some comments. Every President has led us to now but they aren’t even the ones making all the calls anyways..money talks and all that
I am jelly, we live in LA and if I had to I could grow some food but I would LOVE to have a lot that big! Love fishing as well, good source of protein and they repopulate fast.
We will have to take care of one another. Even the Trumpers. We have more in common with each other than Musk and Trump and the rest of the out of touch billionaires. They cannot exist without us. We can survive just fine without them.
If they cut taxes for the rich, SHUT. IT. DOWN. If they take away your healthcare, SHUT. IT. DOWN. If the come for your social security, SHUT. IT. DOWN. They seem to have forgotten who this country belongs to. LET US REMIND THEM! SHUT. IT. DOWN!

Except if everything goes to shit, and it will. They will be cleared for the next midterms. People will know they had nothing to do with the 4.5 trillions going to corporations. 😉
Much better framing than throwing their hands up and saying
"We don't know what to do"
I would hope since Republicans are allowed to be obstructionist, so can Democrats be obstructionist.
Yeah, my sense is that’s exactly why Trumpkin is trying to submit a ridiculous budget…to make it easier and more painful for Gov workers by forcing the Dems to shutdown the Gov. They’re thinking, the longer the more pain they want to inflict. This is not going to end well for anyone!
The GREAT NEWS IS: Republicans don't need a single vote. Regressive democrats oppose Making America Frugal, Safe, Secure, Healthy, Wealthy, Wise, & GREAT Again. And they lost every power center throughout gov't doing so. Please ASSes, keep doing the same insane shit & expecting a different outcome.
It's been below freezing where I live. I'll get out when the weather warms up and America is Great Again. Probably by Spring. But please stay out in the cold. It's where the commies come in from.
This is a good start. They now need to make this unified stair-down an ongoing event…especially during the March 4th joint session where tRump is set speak or whatever insane nutso vomiting is going to unfold. We need some proactive clap-back with a few choice F~bombs & receipts of their cruelty.
It still passed now the question is, can the senate do anything to stop this steal from the people? Tired of hearing these Senators say it is up to us. This is on them.
They will not stop it. Trump will get his agenda passed. Big tax cut for the rich on the back of Medicaid. He doesn't care that rural hospitals will close and seniors will be wheeled to the curb in front of closed nursing homes. Children and the disabled will lose healthcare.
My wife and I got paid by #medicaid to care for our adult children with #autism. So, now they lose their #healthcare, and we lose our income to be able to care for them. We're almost 60. There's no "get another job" for us. Besides, what will happen to them? They need care 24/7. We're fucked.
Since there won't be any more elections, it doesn't matter to the Republicans if their constituents are upset about the Medicaid cuts. They can't be voted out.
Led by a South African, having travelled around SA as a Brit, the sheer level of disparity between black and white communities is a shock as is the open disdain.
I’m married to a South African and agree with this. People decrying “anti-white racism” in SA need to go there and see how the native South Africans live compared to the white South Africans. All the pro-black policies that have existed for decades still haven’t managed to wipe that inequality out.
It’s not law yet, not by a lot actually. All they did was advance it a step. As it stands republicans don’t have the votes to pass it. They can only lose 2 votes and there’s at least 2 dozen fiscal hawks who ain’t gonna go for 4.5 trillion of new debt.
I highly recommend Prof And political historian Heather Cox Richardsons daily substack “letters from an American” and her Tuesday 4 pm EST fb livestreams (weekly LS) it’s beyond exceptionally informative and meticulously sourced. She’s also her on Bluesky @hcrichardson.bsky.social
This is the beginning of a process, there are still several more house votes before it becomes a bill. I f understand correctly from previous posts. This vote clears the way for more planning and sets goals - it is not yet a bill.
Something like that. I will look look for a clarification
Here we go. Not yet a bill, just a short awful sickening plan about how to make things much much worse...time for dems to put sand in those congressional gears
They shouldn't give a single yes vote for anything as Republicans have been doing that to us for years now at the detriment of their own constituents. They want to tear it all down no matter what it does to anyone.
Glad to see them organizing, providing a coherent message and acting as if this truly is a time where there is a viable threat to the integrity of Congress and congressional powers
The House is 217-215 Republican with 3 vacancies. We need big accounts to use Bluesky to fundraise for Democrat Josh Weil against Republican Randy Fine for the April 1st #FL06 special election. If Democrats organize exclusively on Bluesky, the party can catch the GOP sleeping and pick off this seat.
You understand now their attitude. Now I kind of understand what my biology teacher was talking about, he's studied too many ephemeral species is my guess. In the meanwhile, off the back of white supremacy, no wonder people used to say if the soft Left didn't get harder things might descend to this.
I often wonder about the great injustice that is the DNC caucus of 2016, when they so blatantly cheated, did they really blindly believed that Hilary would be more likely to win or they were more concerned that Bernie, winning, was someone they, the corporatists, couldn’t control.
Maybe? But rn w/ their constituents angry as hell, doubt it. Unlike maga we are totally cool w/ voting out those who’re supposed to represent us. As much as I love AOC & Bernie, if they sold out bye byeeee.
I hear ya but let’s be real too. It’s more like “wish Americans grew a spine”. These are elected ppl. We the people elected them. Or rather, the ppl who get off their arses & vote elected them. Keep in mind ppl who vote tend to be more centrist. Which is why we have so many spineless politicians.
Now start in the republicans so they know constituents will know the awful things they are doing. All those rural states need USAID and SNAP and Medicaid
And of course the repugniKlans are spinning it as the Democrats are shutting down the government. Like nobody knows the GOP have the majority in Senate and House.
We are the democracy army we need now. Now , let's get to work.
The democrats in congress just passed the 1st road block,and they did hold the line.
I believe that Rachel Maddow jolted Hakeem Jeffrey into reality last night on her show.
Again Thank You Rachel Maddow .
Absolutely huge crowds. A protester told me we need 3.5 % of the population. That sounds do able. It's millions. I keep asking everyone I know. I will not quit.
Excellent last night. Before I went to bed, it sounded like Jeffrey was going to vote in their budget plan. I was so pissed. I'm very glad I dont have to work against Jefferies.
Rachael must have gotten thru to him after all. Thank you, Rachel Maddow, for laying it out to him.
It was bad. Dems should have been getting a new boss in Congress 30 secs after Maddows show aired on the EAST COAST. By west coast time they should’ve been announcing who it was.
Jeffries just repeated talking points. The problem is that the inspiring leaders, like AOC, can't even get the gerontocracy at the top to make her a committee chair, let alone a party leader.
Yep. Reps have internal term limits for committee. AOC is loud and very solid. But I’d like to see the East/West Coast disappear off the Dem leadership radar. Moskowitz, Cesar, Craig. Crockett is great.
Trump is a geriatric bag of puss. Dem leadership is full of them too. Jeffries is their chosen.
Right now I think we have room at the top. I think enough for several people to step up AOC , Crockett, and a few others. Leaders are like cream they rise to the top they are not pulled up. We need these people to want the job not be forced into it bc we think they fit there.
**It's 'PUS.' Just with the one "s." As someone who has cleaned a lot of infected wounds, I will uphold your factual statement that Trump is FULL OF IT!😆👍

I grew up in Puyallup Washington where there was a WWII encampment of Japanese Americans and soldiers. They were put in encampments in my hometown and Uncle George was there. And my step-grandfather was one of the last surviving members of WWII and was laid to rest after his 30 years of service.
I am a Californian & as long as we have a democrat governor w/ balls sitting in our state capital, I will feel semi-safe because right now states have their own power but I don’t know how long that’s gonna last.
Honestly I thought, even with Bobo the Clown here, I was safe in CO. Michael Bennett betrayed his state when he decided he would continue to confirm trumps picks. Sending love out your way- I hope you all have much better luck out there.
Is there anyone who I can call or type that’s outside of California that may help. I Want 2 help other folks else where TOO. I can’t do much I am disabled and isolated. I did do Phone/ texting banking in 2018. I stuffed envelopes, made signs for protestors. Donated time to behind the scenes.
Yes! I’ll find the post but there is a group of dem senators that voted to confirm trumps picks- we can call them and demand to know why they betrayed the party for fäcîsm. I’ve been calling my senator but we need to be calling all of them
we have to seriously organize in the grassroots… let’s all connect thru BlueSky and start expanding our lists until we can all come up together (physically, or in Zoom) and start planning organizationally.
First create name for this chat and then invite people who wants to join us. I’m from Southern California. If you’re in Washington or N. Carolina or elsewhere , create a group in each areas…but
I would make these individual chats with representatives that will get in touch with the other chats nationwide. Each group needs a leader as far as communications so it’ll be like the chief of communications. Let’s just say that.
There is supposed to be a national coalition to start a union of American citizens to rise up & face-off literally almost with the 1% and maga, because there is a little bit of difference between the two, one who know what they’re doing and the other one we’re not sure they know anything 😝🧐 anyways,
I’m a CA Democrat and Gavin Newsom is the worst governor we’ve ever had. You’re crazy if you think he’s done a good job. Guys like him are the reason Trump won again.

It takes a ton of energy and money to raise food and you harvest once.
You pretty much have to can, preserve, or freeze all of it because produce doesn't last long.
Let's eat the rich first. 😁
If you do nothing, then a much much worse fate awaits you.
It is impossible to get out of this without some form of personal sacrifice.
My point was, we'll experience hunger far sooner than the wealthy will.
We're not starving them out.
They forget that bread and circuses keep the masses from killing and eating them. They're about to be reminded of that fact.
Disconnecting from their platforms.
Daily, sustained national strikes.
Clinging on to a normal day to day life is delusional at this point.
Hungry masses are really not going to go well for them.
And that's why us running out of food before they do won't help them one little bit.
They need us, but we'll go hungry long before they will, and that's their downfall.
Please, can i have some fun in this place without getting lectured?!
