Democrats please stop pretending things are normal. What good does it do to show up wearing a certain color and looking mad and refusing to clap? None! Don’t go or walk out a minute in - there is nothing to gain by carrying on as always

Also a good idea!

I actually think the dems should attend the SOTU, wait till the 2nd sentence, and then walk out en masse, that'll do it, there'll be no address, he'll just have a meltdown on national Tv

Mr. Jeffries - this is so much more meaningful than sitting through a traitor’s lies

Isn't this the truth..

NEW: Senator Marshall (R-KS) RUNS AWAY, fleeing his own town hall after being asked about DOGE firing Veterans. MAKE HIM GO VIRAL.

Pass it on. #StandWithUkraine

Just read this graf. Share it with people you know who don’t pay attention to politics or news.

You’ll feel better. It’s only a start, though. Think if how many other ways you can carry this forward by reducing our dependency on monsters like Amazon. And supporting local stores who need us all. Bezos has turned WaPo opinions to sheer propaganda. We can use our actions to speak back

what kind of shithole party boos Zelensky and cheers the Tate brothers

Slava Ukraini 🇺🇦

Today I am embarrassed to be an American. His buffoonery in the first term was bad, but what happened today in the Oval Office was beyond egregious. The two of them badgering a man trying to fend off an invasion into saying thank you was disgraceful.

Tate is like Trump in this sense: the most grotesque thing is not that he exists, but that he’s hugely popular, and what that says about us as a species.

I guess it is always the way, but not sure why the boycott day is getting so much hate. I like it because it has made me examine my buying habits but it also shows some solidarity. Perhaps find meaningful way to encourage next steps rather than rant about how your action is pointless?

Voted for Trump, now have buyer’s remorse? The Trump philosophy seems to be his version of FAFO. Don’t buy anything on the 28th unless you absolutely have to. #Resist

... as seen in #Pawtucket #RhodeIsland ...

@blankcheck.bsky.social - what positions are you hoping for?

It’s like all that wailing about the debt was just nonsense masking desire to screw over Americans

We're all on board with this, yeah? Economic blackout is a very easy action. • Don't shop big hostile corporations on Friday. • Don't surge-shop there just before or after. • Take the rest of this week to shop local & consider how much junk you really need. www.newsweek.com/nationwide-e...

#Canadians are preparing to create a retail blackout on Feb 28 of all U.S retailers doing business there. For one day, they will show them the power when provoked. Absolutely no purchases from Walmart, Home Depot, Best Buy, Amazon, McDonald’s, Staples, Gap or any other US retailers. Join them!!

Every Democrat in Congress should be saying this every day!

So, what happens if Dems just don’t show up for final vote on Patel?

Oh.

Could some reporter or someone in power just finally ask Trump “what is wrong with you”? To his face just ask him why he is so petty and vindictive and why he constantly needs to be the center of attention? It would be sad if the consequences for the entire world were not so dire

Believing that Tulsi Gabbard — longtime Russian asset and newly confirmed Director of National Intelligence — is acting in the interests of the United States requires an extraordinary level of self-delusion.

Santa Barbara peeps: your town hall last Saturday was featured tonight on Rachel Maddow. YOUR Town Hall. YOU made it happen, by showing up in person and online. By saying it loud: RESIST the Trump-Musk coup. We at Indivisible Santa Barbara are proud to represent you. We can do this together.

Imagine if @aoc @sanders.senate.gov , every dem, SIMULTANEOUSLY held Town Halls where they allowed grant and contract recipients to explain to the country what it is they do and why it's important Invite all media. Including RW podcasters. @spaces Flood the zone Call it a Day Of Transparency
