Fuck Chuck

A YES on cloture is a YES for the bill. Do not let anyone play games with you.

If true, @schumer.senate.gov should resign. Defend Article I or get out. Same goes for @schatz.bsky.social who I think should know better given his public statements. And @durbin.senate.gov who could have Pritzker send someone with a spine. If true, just leave.

Democratic Leaders Stand Real Still In Hopes No One Notices Them

Credit where credit is due these MAGA fellas upheld their end of the bargain after losing the bet. We miss the days where we all got along before this divisive, selfish con man came along 💔 #trumpsucks youtu.be/Tl4ggwyWEMI

Today: Altoona, Wisconsin: In attendance: 2,000 Yesterday: Kenosha, Wisconsin In attendance: 4,000 Bernie Sanders, who is 83-years-old is holding rallies across rural America and people are showing up! Where is @democrats.org @kenmartin.bsky.social ? Get it together, NOW!

Democrats think that if they react appropriately to Trump, it will cause the public to change its view of Democrats (“they’re hysterical!”) and not its view of Trump. It’s a belief rooted in a total denial of their own political agency as representatives of more than 50% of Americans

Fascist coup going on and Dem leaders are trying to make the few Congresspeople who give a shit feel like they're getting sent to the principal's office. Get the net.

Pitch-perfect response to Interim U.S. Attorney Ed Martin from @georgetownlaw.bsky.social Dean Bill Treanor. It’s always a privilege and honor to be part of the GULC community (and to be Bill’s colleague), but *especially* today.

republicans: fyi we are bombing france for being too gay and lead poisoning is now mandatory democrats: yeah? well prepare yourselves for several strongly worded haikus

COLBERT, on Rep. Al Green’s removal: “Some people questioned why so much muscle was needed to remove an old man with a cane. But it turns out it was for a serious reason. When security searched him, they found that he smuggled in a spine." @latenightercom.bsky.social

“I hope, Senator, after you've lost, and the Empire reigns over the galaxy unopposed, you will find some comfort in the knowledge that you fought according to the rules.” — Saw Gerrera

Colbert nails it

If your response to fascism is to sit politely while wearing pink, you need to resign and let someone else do your job.

No congressperson should sit quietly during Trump’s speech. Their responsibility is to openly revolt and disrupt the process. Decorum doesn’t extend to fascists. #3E #STU #donotcomply

Democrats should boycott the State of the Union. Democrats keep calling this man a unique and dangerous threat, but never ACT like it. For once, Democrats' *actions* should match their words. My latest in @thenation.com www.thenation.com/article/poli...

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

Yaaaaaassssssss!!!! Senator Ron Wyden isn't going to be attending Donald Trump's joint session of Congress tomorrow. Instead, he will be holding his own town hall. More Democrats need to do this! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

All I know is that if I was a rep or senator right now who went into public policy because I cared about public service (and I say that as a public policy studies major who won the departmental policy paper award in the most popular major and couldn’t get a paid internship) …

DEMOCRATS: You are committing a historic error right now. The federal government is collapsing and you are paralyzed. You seem unable to even address half the stuff that's happening because it does fit into your pre-fab vision of what good political rhetoric sounds like. You are failing America.

Secretary of Defense Hegseth says he doesn’t know if Russia invaded Ukraine. This you?

@stealthygeek.bsky.social: “Democrats should be running daily press briefings from a shadow White House pool of the legitimate news agencies which have been locked out by the Trump coup. Their audiences will get real news, Dems will regain some messaging control. Why is this not already happening?”

French President Macron: The United States should be compensated by Russia for expenses incurred in supporting Ukraine, since Russia started the war.

Dear Dems. This is a reminder that Donald Trump rescinded the ethics rules preventing gifts to executive branch employees. Now would be a good time to propose legislation formalizing the prevention into a law Time to do things that make him react to you. apnews.com/article/trum...

Brown had to go - he was serving his country while black.

There should be ads with people/firms hurt by Trump’s actions—many in red states—explaining how they are being screwed. The tag line should be: “We didn’t vote for this. Call your Senators at (302) 224-2131 and Representatives at (202) 225-2131 and tell them to do their jobs and put a stop to it.”

AOC is showing what resistance looks like; Schumer, Hochul, and the rest of D leadership not so much. www.publicnotice.co/p/aoc-homan-...

Mr Garcia, I have drafted an appropriate response for you. You're welcome.

@schumer.senate.gov @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social 👇

I've noted some of the procedural things Democrats could be doing in Congress, but this point from @edgeofsports.bsky.social's great piece in the Nation deserves emphasis. This is basic politics, and it's baffling that every Democrat isn't doing it every day. www.thenation.com/article/poli...

This is why you fight these cowards. The moment you stand up to them, they crumble. Homan has nothing. The Fourth Amendment is clear and I am well within my duties to educate people of their rights. He can threaten me with jail and call names all he wants. He’s got nothing else.

I’m the dairy farmer running to replace Elise Stefanik in New York’s 21st Congressional District. Can you repost this, give me a follow, and help spread the word?
