I hate to say this, but the Democrats have a track record of doing just that to the right wing extremists. Stop rolling over for them and start fighting back.
We need brave members of Congress to defend the Constitution & save our country from the felonious, criminal, corrupt, dishonest, insurrectionist & Russian asset that’s about to ruin the country & be given access to US secrets.

This is typical Trump behavior. Everyone comes to the table with the understanding there’s a deal and he throws a grenade. But government is totally different and if dems hold strong the country will stand by you and reward you. Let the republicans shoot themselves in the foot. ITS THEIR MESS!!
Now that Johnson's got a a bill that's nearly identical to the one President Musk killed, except for the debt ceiling hike added, will you be pointing this out - especially as he'd been insisting it be "clean"?
This is basically the same bill he was railing against as a trap two hours ago. All he did was add a debt ceiling hike and make the Freedom Caucus eat it:
It’s not the same. There were a lot of health care provisions in there that are now out. They’re still screwing over people, just in ways that the media doesn’t report on. Ex: there was a 2 year extension on the use of telehealth. It’s now 3 months. Things that everyday citizens rely on…
Amen and Happy you are here on Bluesky!
I followed you on X /Twitter and deleted my X acct. back in Oct. had been there for several years.
Thank you for being a great leader in the House of Reps! God Bless you always! 🇺🇸 🌊💙
I don't remember voting for musk or Rama llama ding dong. The DOGE Or Department of Grifting Elitists will never exist because Congress creates offices not rich douchebags. It sucks that people are thrilled that people won't get paid right before Christmas. I hope they all lose their jobs
We are counting on y’all to hold the line! All the way from North Carolina. Don’t let MAGA get away with this. Let them take the blame for screwing the American people!
Thank you Hakeem Jeffries and House Democrats for fighting for the majority of Americans not just the millionaires and billionaires, by fighting to prevent the Republican gvmt shutdown.
Stop playing nice. Fight fire with fire. He hasn’t even taken office and this country is already in chaos. Hold all of them accountable already! Enough is enough!
Listen to this quick podcast, and see how Maga organized a Maga swarm to a relentless campaign against a fellow Republican who didn't support Hegsworth. This is exactly what we need. Let's take a play from their playbook. https://youtu.be/dBS3Zi0Mg9A?si=KEqC03VixRmh33jp
How about whipping a vote on the 14th Amendment section 3. Trump is disqualified unless Congress says otherwise by 2/3. Scotus said it's in your hands. @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social
We supported ActBlue, we voted for Dems you have an obligation as a sitting congressman to tell us if you would stoop so low as to sacrifice more trans kids for a CR, you aren’t hearing from MAGA here you are hearing from people who voted for you.
Our community is mad about this, we trusted Democrats and the fact that you and your fellow dem politicians won’t give us so much as a reply shows you will not miss an opportunity to compromise with the republicans.
But you had no problem bending the knee when it came to TRICARE and trans kids of military personnel. Seriously you folks better decide where your loyalties lie.
Now would be a good time for Democratic Party leaders to issue and amplify the statement that the U.S. is not in the business of invading sovereign nations!
Starter pack with Democratic US House members on Bluesky. Find your representative and give them a follow. Let them know what's on your mind. If your rep isn't here, contact them and suggest they join. https://go.bsky.app/4P7CkU3
I’m feeling fing pissed about the continuation of the same old white guy leadership in the party. What happened to AOC is unacceptable. Take the fing gloves off already fight.. really fight! Stop bailing the GOP out of their mess!
Hakeem #Jeffries does - or has to - tolerate the „old white guy leadership“ of the party. I am sad but have to call out Nancy #Pelosi for being an „old white guy“, too. @aoc.bsky.social was robbed of the chance to significantly fight and lead against #Trump, #Musk and their filthy bunch. Why?
Thank you, that was my immediate reaction.
Leader Jeffries has made 3 posts at this point and the first comments are all the left bashing Dems.
I left X for this? For Dems eating their own - yet again? JFC, it’s the same old, same old.
Maybe they should start acting like Democrats again. For example, there is a reason that Medicare can only negotiate prices for 10 drugs and it's not just because all the Republicans opposed negotiating all prices.
They’re the reason Medicare drugs can be negotiated AT ALL now and that there’s a schedule to add more each year. They also blocked Bush’s agenda to privatize Medicare & Social Security.
But you’re mad it wasn’t more. Dems getting mad when they don’t get it all end up voting 3rd party or not at all.
Thank God that Social Security wasn't privatized. Whatever money you might have had in there would have been gone immediately. Privatization is only good for those running that privatization. I earned those benefits I want my money. And if they take it away I want it all with interest
Gotta stop the squabbling amongst the anti Traitor/Felon crowd. Either we all oppose Fascism and Oligarchy or we succumb to it. This is how he got elected!!
Yet AOC's very own cult leader dashes to grab a seat at Elon's table of millionares & billionares, oligarchs & corporatists.. the very ppl he sloganeered sgainst for 10 years.
BS goes where the $$ flows saying thanks kids!! His revoluushun is now complete.

STEPHEN SPOONAMORE - Maricopa County AZ. 26 batches of 200ish ballots were selected for hand-recount. Hand count matched a machine count Both: Harris +7 53-46. But overall Maricopa county tabulators results have Trump +4 51-47. So, this sample was not representative by 11+ points?
Fast forward a month, totally bending the knee. Government getting shut down through firings and bogus “buyout” offers. Passing bills that remove the constitutionally protected right to due process for certain immigrants.
Rs gave y’all decades of lessons in messaging and obstruction, but no: norms
I hope you're serious. Don't bail them out. These MAGAs think Dems aren't for the people which is why VP Harris lost. Show them who isn't for the people, the Republicans. They are bought by President Musk and Putin is telling Musk what to do to destroy our government. Trump is just a puppet for Musk
MAGA's GOP, heritage foundation, SCOTUS, CEOs, & others have been planning, working & organizing for 50 yrs to take away people's civil liberties. So that they could build this billionaire's oligarch that's going to run this country in 2025
Mr Jeffries why want you all come out on tv a tell the people of Elon are anyone break the law it will be a price to pay and I promise you will win us black men over cause now we no you all will fight
Hold the line! Please protect Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, and the ACA! Congressman Jeffries, I am very glad that you have emerged as a voice of RESISTANCE against the Musk/Trump regime and the destructive Project 2025. Stand up for democracy!
Congress' job approval rating is 19%. Reform is needed. R's & D's run Congress & Elections. Why is the job approval so low and what can be done to improve Congress' job approval rating? ☮️
You are fighting for the top 20%, not for "everyday" Americans. You can't, at the same time, celebrate raking in billions in donations from the billionaire class and then pretend to be a left-wing working class party.
Given Trump's "massive mandate" (underachiever that he is, <50% of the total vote registers as "massive" in his head) I think he's counting on his hypnotic charm to make everyone stupid just like him.
You are getting paid from corporate millionaires & billionaires. We know by the status quo you are keeping. You and the majority of Dems MOC are complicit in the hell the majority of Americans have & will continue to go through. But you got a good rap.
Musk is the recipient of big money from the American gov't. In plain English, Musk lives off gov't money while at the same time trying to destroy the American gov't for the people & the GOP are willing participants. There's a conflict of interest & it hasn't been addressed & needs to be addressed!
Thank you! Find the GOP who refuse to do this also. I'm sure there are some who will not let the threats of being primaried stop them from doing what their voters sent them there to do.
Please take off the gloves. Why is someone prohibited by the 14th Amendment to assume office even still allowed to assume the Presidency. This should be all over the news.
It's time to hold the line. No, on increasing the debt ceiling. No, on voting for CR. It's a Republican problem. They weren't negotiating with you they were negotiating with President Musk. Make Speaker Johnson own it all & get the votes. Time to play by opposition party rules.
You put a New Democrat in charge of oversight. Their primary mission is to work with republicans. It’s the first thing they say about how to get things done. Not working with their caucus, working with republicans.
Tell me again why the fuck we are willingly turning our gov't over to these completely incompetent treasonous assholes?! Fuck the peaceful transfer of power, we've got it & we
NEED to keep it!
We are actively participating in the demise of Our Democracy. Quit treating this as normal, make it 🛑!!!!
People are twisting themselves up in knots to explain how Trump won because we all know that it makes no sense. We all saw the energy and the crowds WITH OUR OWN EYES. We are being gaslit and gaslighting ourselves. HE DIDN’T WIN. HE CHEATED. His team had the software for the voting machines.
At this point, Democrats should simply do nothing. Vote against every single thing Republicans propose and let voters see and feel exactly the kind of government they elected.
If the Republicans are going to be dysfunctional and try to screw over the public then you let them own it. Make them change for the better or reap the consequences.
I don’t blame you one bit for standing up to Trump/Musk and the MAGA republicans. They just want to make the rich richer and leave the poor in the dust. Trump cause a large deficit in the economy before and he will do it again.
Can I call bullshit? They did not attempt to stop a felon from being able to run this country and they are doing nothing to stop his rich handlers from barking orders through him, several weeks before he has any power.
SO MANY of us have left “President Musk’s” algorithmic propaganda machine, and have come here. I WON’T go back to that “X” marks the spot billionaire’s manipulation tool.
NO President Elect Trump and Elon are calling the shots he won the election by a landslide and the Dems will bow down to Trump’s demands or else the Dems will shut it down
Please, No catching the ball for them as it falls off the table. We make no changes besides backing the original agreement. Let them walk it back or whatever.
President eCheck Elon Musk wants to influence the GOP to give him a sky is the limit debt ceiling? The billionaire bros club would gain unfettered cash through Government contracts. Americans cannot pay for that.
This a mess they can own, don't you dare support the lifting of the debt ceiling for the Muskrats and Magats. No bailing them out this time. Hard Pass, you said it..
We are expecting to see all Democrats standing strong and remaining united. The leaders need to communicate to members who are wavering, and unsure of where they stand with these new dynamics, that the Dem constituency is UNINTERESTED in seeing that nonsense. Thank you for being that kind if leader.
The Republican Party has lost touch with the American people, and they're slipping further and further away from reality. They must be stopped. Any Democrat who cowers to them should be voted out during the next election cycle. We need fighters, not wimps.
And now muck tweets AfD to “save Germany”?!?! White supremacy and Naxi 2.0 coming our way. Keep fighting for us Mr. Jeffries!!! We need you more than ever.
Prove it. Show Democrats that our elected officials know how to hold the line when it is unjust. Even when they out number you let everyone know what they are losing. Let the people of America know. Go to every social media outlet over and over and over again until it is being heard by all.
Yes and Don't forget the constitution is the most important way to protect Americans. Amendment 14 and section 3 convicted felons are not allowed to be president. You need to raise it to the congress. If needs to vote, only 2/3 pass, Trump can be president.
The 2/3 vote is to take away the disqualification that trump has right now because Trump is an adjudicated guilty in taking part in an insurrection by Colorado judge.
Shutting the government down is part of their plan to shred the public’s remaining faith in government, destroy the state and pave the way for the rise of their pathetic fascist techbro utopia
Let’s hope that it’s any House Rep or Senator that votes to cut SS. It’s the GOP threatening it most - they should be primaried too. No constituent should tolerate it.
Unfortunately you’ll probably be the Minority Leader in the House as long as you continue to let the geriatric wing of the party maintain control. We should primary everyone that’s over 70.
Instead of treating the disease, people are complaining about the symptoms. Trump is Constitutionality disqualified from holding office. Congress do your job.

It's gotten us nowhere
And we didn’t vote for Elon Musk, so he shouldn’t be dictating to Congress.
Trump hasn’t even been sworn in yet so why can he scupper things in Congress already? Argh!
I followed you on X /Twitter and deleted my X acct. back in Oct. had been there for several years.

Brand Trump’s as the billionaire donor class administration.
Point out how Trump is weak and following Musk.
Point out how Trump is betraying his voters on grocery prices.
Start now.
Don’t wait till 2026.
Separately I’m really pissed about AOC not getting oversight. 😡
NO!!!
