I know you are on recess until 4/28, but could you use some of that time to do any of these things:
-- encourage fellow Senators to vote yes for impeachment
-- prepare injunctions against loss of privacy if registry goes through
-- prepare data to present on effect tariffs will have on supply chains
I guess all of the Democrat senators and congressmen are waiting until Drumpf starts stashing you away into undisclosed prisons before you get up off your @$$es, huh? Because you know that's coming very soon, right?
Serious question: how do you do that? Can Patel be impeached? If yes, would a vote to fire him be carried? What will the judge at her arraignment? What solidarity can she expect from her fellow judges? This is surely a line that cannot be crossed in the separation of powers?
I mean if the judge did something illegal then obviously that’s a valid reasons. But the optics are horrible. Hopefully more details will come out today
This judge was the former head of the *Milwaukee Bar Association*. Probably not someone who did something illegal unintentionally. She either didn't break the law, or it was an act of civil disobedience.
Yes. I’ve read about “this is out of the authoritarian handbook” so many times. And yet the Democratic Caucus and Democratic establishment have done nothing to counter all of the instances of “this is out of the authoritarian handbook” just do something.
“Dugan was taken into custody by the FBI on Friday morning. She appeared briefly in federal court in Milwaukee later Friday before being released. Her next court appearance is May 15. “Judge Dugan wholeheartedly regrets and protests her arrest. It was not made in the interest of public safety.”
Another day, another example of why @schumer.senate.gov and the 9 other @democrats.senate.gov were wrong to pass that bill.
🤨 Schumer waiting around for Trump to become unpopular, meanwhile the Constitution is being trampled by his administration.
This can only end one way now. All of the checks and balances are gone now. It will be up to the American people to end this march towards autocracy. I don’t think it will be done just with marches.
please withhold unanimous consent on everything until she is released, along with the students who are in custody and all the men who were renditioned to El Salvador
In representative government, the people elect uhhh representatives who will oh you know represent them and fulfill the functions of the legislative branch, or one leg of a 3-legged chair, holding executive in check
You are an elected representative, it is you who must do something
The FBI's apparent decision to make an example of Judge Dugan is part of a broader and deeply alarming agenda to silence dissent,
incite fear, and erode the very institutions that protect our rights.
The Trump administration's lawlessness is a threat to everyone in this country.
Senator Markey, will you please send out a party wide email asking the Senators to include Bluesky on their websites? It's important because it shows by action that you support the social media site not owned by the billionaires. Please, we need to be represented!
To the US lawyers and judges not arrested today: if you help tRUmp and the MAGAts do their work nobody will need judges or lawyers again. I suggest, if you care about a continued career, you grow a spine right about now.
Best warn your Redhat fascist coworkers that they are a whisker away from being eradicated in a new civil war that will not spare a single conservative.
Can any regular citizen of the US have like a 'citizen's arrest' for any administration members and have them charged with treason for not upholding their oath to the constitution? (Asking for a country since impeachment seems too cumbersome.)
You and your colleagues in both houses must refuse to do any business until this stops. Especially confirming any more of #kingtrump 's appointees.
Not like you are passing any meaningful bills anyway.
Protest!!! It will take all of us!!! The people have the power! We are the spine of America! Show Up or shut up! Look up May Day protests near you!! If you can get to DC that would be best.
Yeah, you’re a guy who doesn’t know a goddamned fucking thing about how impeachment works, so you make an idiotic comment.
The pigs own both houses of Congress. You might as well suggest magically transporting Trump to Alpha Centauri. Which would be great, but it’s not possible.
“I expect the legal profession to understand that the nation is not here for them but they are here for the nation… From now on, I shall intervene in these cases and remove from office those judges who evidently do not understand the demand of the hour.”
Senator Markey; As a MA democrat, please tell us what we can do other than being terrified and feeling helpless to stop the tyrant and this administration. PLEASE.

This all Seems to really be about The Trump Regime pushing their weight around on the Judiciary.
Which is just FASCISM.
You are an elected representative, it is you who must do something
incite fear, and erode the very institutions that protect our rights.

Thanks!

Democratic Elected Officials should ALL rebuke this—
Normalizing the arrest of a judge because she didn’t bend to the will of the executive branch is FASCIST AUTHORITARIANISM in plain sight.
The Democratic Party needs to stop the cowardice & unilaterally DISSENT.
The pigs own both houses of Congress. You might as well suggest magically transporting Trump to Alpha Centauri. Which would be great, but it’s not possible.
That so many people don’t have a clue about how impeachment works after seeing it fail badly twice against Trump in his first term mystifies me.
that was Hitler in 1942.
