The Democrats lack a unifying leader right now that folks can rally around - is there a succession plan from Biden and Harris to a Josh Shapiro or a Pete Buttigieg? The resistance to Trump seems to come more from you and Jim Acosta at present.

This is what pisses me off. A well-known stats guy came out and said 4.5Mil voters had either been purged or had their ballots nullified. That would have created a win for Kamala. This is where the votes went. I knew SO MANY people who said “we are not going back!” and a lot of them changed parties.

I agree with you, but where are the republicans too! That party continues to lower the bar, and at some point they are going to have to own this. They need to wake up and lead with the integrity they always claim.

You are completely justified in being upset. And you asked the right questions. Why are Democrats being so passive? Why are they cowering at home? Why is there no plan, no leader? Jamie Raskin, I’m talking to you. Gavin Newsom and Josh Shapiro too.You are fighters. We need you to fight, to lead.

I have been wondering if the silence is strategic (or accidentally brilliant). MAGA is always gonna MAGA, but with no counterpunch to ‘flood the zone’ those who voted for him but have loved ones who are being impacted will have no choice but to stew in their choices.

Adam, How do I watch The Last Republican. I feel like it's missing exposure by simply not being easy to find info about release dates and/or streaming platforms.

Voters opened the China Shop door, for the bull. What’s the point of trying to sweep while chaos is occurring? Dems are waiting for him to finish before handing the tallied damage to us. Then they’ll either clean it up, build new, or walk away.

Thank you for speaking out, Adam. I feel like we’re screaming into the void. It’s clear by the actions of this week that they dream of a 1-party nation. This is scary sh*t and we’d better get clear eyed very fast. I just read On Tyranny. We are sliding…..

If you aren’t making the weekly headlines with something incendiary said by you or an AOC or Mayor Pete at a showy and regular anti-MAGA rally about a current issue(s), you’ve lost the information/disinformation war these days. And bonus, you can add protest marches in the cities for messaging.

The dems have no effective leadership at the federal level right now. It’s looking increasingly likely that their voters need to take care of it for them via some kind of direct action. But it’s mass chaos and people want to post instead of organize. Myself included. We need leaders.

The Republicans are not reaching out to them about anything. They are going to Mar-Lagoon for payout information they will receive when they push for "MASS" amounts of money for fake Mass deportation, and a condo. He's using a pen for everything.

To counter the chaos, Dems and democracy need their own media. National media and right-wing media love the chaos. They found Dems and Biddn boring and not great for their bottom line.

So far, he has not caved. I hope he stays that way. It's so clear what we need to do, but we don't have the kind of money right-wing billionaires have. They have bought all the newspapers and radio stations.

You bring a lot to the table and you have credibility. You waste it by whining about Democrats. You think there's a place for you in the gop if you hang around waiting for republicans to welcome you back in the fold? If you want to make a difference, do it as a Democrat, not as a loser republican.

Democrats are fighting as I do a proud Democrat never a Dang Republican. The ultimate values of Nixon & Reagan Presidencies brought us to this shit show Constitutional Crisis. That’s as far as I go back in voting. Blaming Democrats is wrong & doesn’t help anyone. What’s happening is a reflection of

the present electorate in our Country who voted in a MAGA Congress in the House & Senate & Presidency. I voted for Kamala & Joe & would have again. I voted blue down ballot so I don’t deserve this but this is the Country I love & my house rep in CA is a Trump bootlicker I didn’t vote for but I sent

him messages to stop this crisis. I asked him what job does he have if Congress doesn’t control legislation & the purse & it’s controlled solely by Trump & his oligarchy. He’s not part of the oligarchy & is very expendable as all Americans seem to be to right now to Trump & his oligarchy. Trump has

an excess supply of bootlickers. Democrats are the soul of US Democracy who fight to save our Democratic Republic Democracy. Please for all that’s sacred/holy don’t blame US Democrats for what Republicans have done and continue to do and won’t be happy until Putin’s Puppet has finished off America.

My email to Senator Grassley: Senator Grassley, Just 9 days into Trump’s presidency, he has already committed numerous unlawful, unethical and perilously unconstitutional acts that usurp Congress’ authority and put millions of Americans in grave danger. Notably….

He arrogated to himself Congress’ constitutional power of the purse by “pausing” ALL federal grants and loans without so much as asking Congress’ permission, throwing millions into chaos….

He summarily fired 17 or 18 inspectors general and terminated their communications, violating the law and his legal responsibility to furnish written justification to Congress 30 days in advance….

He pardoned and granted clemency to ALL January 6th insurrectionists and — when a federal judge attempted to bar Stewart Rhodes from entering Washington, DC — had the Justice Department overrule that precaution. Many of these insurrectionists are already threatening “retribution.”…

I’ve also seen post from civilians in other countries asking we our civilians are not out in the streets protesting every day. I agree. What are we all doing besides bitching on social media?

100% We knew this was coming so there should have been a plan, we should be in DC or on TV and Social Media and putting out videos like this all day every day. I know he’s exhausted but it does feel like there is no message or leadership. Take back the headlines. Make media change the narrative.

I have mixed feelings about this. People didn’t believe it could happen, yet Trump won the presidency. Maybe it has to be painful and real enough for most to finally see that this isn’t a drill, a game, or just another round of “let’s own the liberals.”

I can’t speak of this because I have not watched any TV and completely ignored the Times and WAPO since the election (only headlines and alerts) But I have to say the DC apparatus including the media has always been conservative so what outlet other the social media they have?

It's critical that Dems resist and refute the MAGA GOP's propaganda machine. They know what Trump is doing is wrong and they need to consistently call it out in real time. Doing nothing is worse than doing the wrong thing. Can't win a fight you're not in

THANK YOU. This is infuriating! Dems need to be out there EVERYWHERE, doing social media and tv blitzes, shouting from rooftops. Why aren't you organizing! We are PLEADING for leadership here! Where are you??

1. They're still trying to formulate a plan. 2. They've sold us all out and it's everyone for themselves. 3. They're scared and frozen in place. 4. They're demoralized to the point of disunity. 5. They're bitter and want to watch the world burn out of spite. 6. They were never unified to lead.

They never really do though. They just polish the turds the repugnants leave behind and kiss their asses. To actually clean up they'd have to play hardball and put criminals in jail where they belong. But they always put political optics ahead of justice and their duty to the country.

WRONG…it matters more NOW. They need to be all over social media & on TV doing pressers & interviews to call out Trump’s Project2025 agenda. Show how he lied & knew what Project2025 was, we are living it. They need to be loud & consistent or be primaried. Period.

👆👆👆 Rubio 99-0 to confirm Noem high 50s to confirm (something like 7-9 Dems voted to confirm the puppy killer) Treasury Secretary 68-29 to confirm WTF Dems? WTF? Feckless numb nuts.

I think we could use some rallies to get the word out on what's going on. We can't sit in this dumpster fire and expect to get ahead. Take the narrative back or they are going to keep things in chaos. There's 150 million people that don't do politics until it affects them. #narrative #Congress

Every day, 7 days a week. All Democrats in office need to be at the Capitol. No more across the isle crap. The gravity of what this administration and @project2025 can do is not an option. Lawyer up, figure it out, talk to the American people like people. Stop the dancing around candy land.

Everyone should call their Senators and Reps especially if they are Repubs and tell them the are against trump! Say you’re a Republican and you will vote them out if they continue to support trump! Democrats need to form coalitions and get Republicans against trump to do the same! STOP FASCISM!

The left is so broken right now. Every day is more damage assessment. We seem to be complicit to let this get as terrible as is can. With Trumps finger on the Insurrection Act we can't stand, we can't fight. All we can do is just point out "This is what you voted for"

I am so disappointed in what appears to be the resistance from democratic leadership. Where are they??? Sternly worded letters and the occasional tweet aren’t going to cut it this time.

Call their offices! All! Call outside your district too! Bombard them with calls. Be firm but polite. Most won't take calls outside their district but look up a zip code from their state & use it to get past their barrier.

Not sure about you, but my news lines have been flooded with Musk and Trump. I haven't seen anything from anyone that opposes him. I unsub from channels constantly and they still pop up. I am guessing this is what happens when you control all the media sources in the country.

Nicole, you are so right, huge part of the plan, and instead MSM being ridiculed and threatened by the orange Jesus, they have fallen in line, almost immediately without a fight. Time for Dems to have there own news, XOF news. We need energy and a voice, but FCC wouldn't allow that any longer,FUCKED

I feel like the Republicans are fucking up so bad the Dems just know they'll get win the house and the senate so why should they do anything. They clearly don't care either, man. It appears we're on our own here. We have Crockett and AOC they can't do it by themselves.

THE DEMS ARE SPEAKING OUT! WTF ARE YOU??? You're here whining about the dems instead of CALLING OUT REPUBLICANS WHO ARE HOLDING ALL THE POWER. All of these problems ARE ON THE REPUBLICANS HEADS!! Whats YOUR MESSAGE to THE REPUBLICANS??? Playing both sides of the fence like this is COWARDLY!

As an IL Dem, I like & respect you. But it’s hypocrisy to be pointing fingers at Dems when you chose not to run for re-election because you knew you would lose. Have you talked to Durbin or Duckworth? You have more access than we do. Don’t point fingers HELP THEM! Country over party (J. Flake)

What are *you* doing, Adam! Others are working instead of badmouthing people on their own side! bsky.app/profile/jenj...

Well… that was fast Federal Judge Loren AliKhan (DC) has temporarily blocked the Trump administration’s effort to freeze as much as $3 trillion in federal grants and loans Judge AliKhan to issue a more on Feb 3. This is a separate case from the one filed by 22 (and DC) Attorney Generals

Democrats cannot begin the impeachment process because they are in the minority in the House and Senate. No matter what Trump does, Republicans will not impeach him because they do not eat their own, unlike Democrats. #VoteBlue #Resist

LOUDER please for the ones farther a field. It's TIME to start standing up for the American people since the Republicans don't seem to give a crap. They are so focused on the CRUELTY & CONTROL it's kinda wild to watch 🤷‍♀️😕🥴

Democratic politicians in general (there may be a few exceptions) do not have the ability to fight..to flood the zone (MSM, Podcasts, S/M, etc) with the FACTS of what is happening on a daily basis. They will need NEW blood and help from independent voices to reach & Influence center leaning voters

The people need to show more support and tell the Dems to stand up to trump and to convince republicans to stop being cowards toward trump and ignore his threats! Many republicans are not in agreement with trump getting rid of government! They will lose their job!

I am a democrat in a red state! I should call republican senator and say I’m a republican and I’m gonna vote him out if he doesn’t stop supporting trump! Play their game! Do whatever it takes to get rid of trump and his Hitler crime ring of fascists!

Pelosi, Schumer, Schiff, Raskin and all the other cowards who posted official letters on social media calling on POTUS to step down in July suddenly have no fight or answers to the nightmare they helped create.

I agree!! He was more concerned about preserving his legacy than saving this country. They HAD TEA w/ the felon nazi & his ho!! I feel totally betrayed by him. Only Michelle Obama was brave enough to say HELL NO!!

It’s so frustrating to see them talk and act as if, normal processes and procedures will prevail. If they did work, he would have been forced to leave office after the first impeachment. Normal reactions to a would be then/dictator now, WILL NOT WORK. We are watching the death of our Republic!!

Ex Republican here, long before this bullshit came out in the open. Yes, we are the largest and loudest opposition to this menace. Where the hell are the Democrats? Being nice, going high? I mean WTAF is the plan? Do they have a plan? Geeze Louise.

I get your point here. But the real message from most Dems is this…we told you for a year this would happen. FAFO. Trump voters refused to believe us. Another press conference isn’t going to convince them, they are in their “find out era.”

YES. ITS AN URGENT situation. not an as needed response. not a “oh i heard that”. Find a group. a make a commitment. get uncomfortable. do something. Get active and not just your rumba acrilling’

I can’t imagine what it must feel like for you, watching your party make a mockery of your military and public service by aligning with the enemy you opposed in both. But it positions you perfectly to name and shame. And unless you’re all still “a family,” that’s what you’ll do.

Exactly. We have a 2 party system here but we’re tapping our feet impatiently for action from only one of the two. Let’s not upset the GOP by asking them to vote for democracy

Trump is poking the bear right now. Trump may punch his own lights out too. But they are waking up. Patience Grasshopper, when your enemy (Trump) is in the process of destroying himself let him. Should he gets his wish and 2 million federal workers quit the US Government would STOP.
