Orange Doofus Jr shakes cane daily.

what should they be doing

Totally disagree. The response to Rep. Al Green proves that what he did wasn’t weak or insignificant.

Considering that Representative Al Green gave us the most eloquent visual of protest at the SOTU maybe The 2000s could up their game. I'd like to see unity from all Democrats and Independents to clean out this toxic Republican Congress and Supreme Court. For some, age is just a number.

Disagree. We need to shake every g-d thing we have. He at least DID something! Not to mention he’s 77- 2000’s were good years. Everyone of those Dems should have continued in the cane shaking vein.

It’s not embarrassing but a human and genuine response to a lying, fascist, pig. Of course, throwing his shoes at the bastard would have been even better.

Other than those who walked out, Rep Green's and Rep Stansbury's resistance are the only displays really covered by the media. Should there have been more? absolutely! But I applaud them.

I know exactly who Adam is. And how is trashing the one guy who stood up and said something not “infighting.” ?? I’m telling HIM to stop infighting. He can take it.

HE’S the one fighting an ally!

America is sharing military intelligence with Russia but not Ukraine.

It could be an attempt at satire.

This is Bluesky is great! It allows people of differing options to share their thoughts.

The true leaders of the Democratic/Left movement were the empty and vacated seats last night.

Exactly.

Oh wow…reading replies, please say you weren’t aiming this at Al Green the ONE Dem with the courage to make good trouble. I thought you were referring to the spineless color coordinator silent respect the office idiots with their thumbs up their butts.

Dear Adam, Please switch parties and seize control. In the alternative, please join with Liz Cheney (call me) and let’s all form a new party. Sincerely, Too Many Fed Up Dems to List

Mark Werner’s interview today with Katy Tur is one of the worst interviews I’ve seen by a dem. He’s an idiot and needs to be replaced. WOW… that was bad.

Seriously

Adam IS still a republicon, we should never forget that he does not share our goals beyond the immediate

Sorry… he was raising cane to call out the injustice of messing with Medicare. You’re tone def on this one but you get a pass - this time. I don’t need a cane, but I might buy one now.

They looked like they were at an auction yesterday

He's a 77 year old patriot that needs the cane. Shame on you. Do better.

He did He was IN office How do yall not know this? How do yall not know he and Cheney were the ones that voted to IMPEACH How?

Like trying to impeach tRump? He did Speak out He did What do you think he should have done????

If you’re talking about Al, he was the one that stood up. The ones sitting quietly were the ones who failed us.

I sincerely hope you are not referring to Representative Al Green…..

Yeah when I thought it over, this is where I landed.

Excellent. The Russian flags are a nice finishing touch.

I agree that the Dems lost a Golden opportunity to make a statement. They should have laughed at every lie. They should have mimicked every Republican response to exaggeration. They would have controlled the circus. I don't agree that they should have walked out. That would have let Trump win

I said this. I'll keep saying it. Get your shit together Democrats or get left behind.

The Boomers who need Social Security, Medicare and potentially chronic care Medicaid are the audience for that visual. He should not have had to stand out alone though.

At least one of them did. And a few others did other things. It would sure be nice if more of our leaders did something like this as well.

At least Dems are demonstrating their opposition unlike the Republicans who bend the knee and kiss his ass.

And so we see, yet again… in real time… how feckless and useless the dems have become. Stop playing by the old rules, you idiots! Play politics in your office. Become fighters in public! It’s all about perception, and you’re perceived as being too old and out of touch. Make some fucking noise!

Ha!

I imagine we wouldn't have to "shake our canes" if Republicans obeyed the law and archaic, out-of-touch Democratic Party leadership actually did something of substance when Republicans don't obey the law

We should use it to beat people’s asses.

Dear Dems: Please START shaking your asses=inside & outside Congress. TODAY take actions to save our nation from TRUMP-MUSK-VANCE-GOP & grifter criminals. Sincerely, P-O DEM Voter

Should've been throwing it at him

It’s time to burn the gop to the ground

@adamkinzinger.bsky.social you got this one wrong. At least he did something.

They should have been throwing eggs at him. At least a tomato

Vote blue, but vote new.

Hey, Team Democracy, how about we limit the trash takes encouraging discord this time around? #midtermscoming🗳

More need to shake their cane. And shake up colleagues and All Americans.Unite. Fight Protests. P. S. Just because you use a cane doesn’t mean you’re incompetent.

I DISAGREE!! Every democratic congressman congresswoman and senator should have stood up one at a time and followed suit until every one was pulled out. DISRUPT! Republicans ONLY respect strength.

Usually agree with you, but not this time. This man has earned his right to do exactly what he did. Last I heard we live in a free country, oh no I take that back, we don't anymore, do we?

The Democrats need a leader like him

Dear GOP please stop giving Dems reasons to shake their canes. Look I get it. It appears weak and silly but it’s misplaced criticism I think

Disappointed in your post. As a person continuing to claim being a Republican, you own this mess. Petty action. You are better than this.

Thank you!!!! The Tea party Republican should focus on the ills of his own party.

At least Al Green shook a cane. Every time IQ47 is kowtowed to he gets higher on his own supply & sense of omnipotence. Are any of the GOP going to do more than kiss the ring & bend the knee? They aren't even objecting. Our very freedoms are on the line. IQ47 & Elon broadcast it openly.

I’m not donating another nickel until Dems take the gloves off and start fighting for our country! The hell with decorum. Our nation is going up in flames. Stop the coup!

I am sick of that too.

The nerve... never a dime from me again either.

🤦‍♂️

This… speak ‘loudly’ and carry a big stick! 😉

Need to shake mops, folding chairs, monopods, any means necessary! Got a cane? Shake it!!!

It IS our fault for taking it ONE guy in the address took a stand and the others sat there.. WE have to get off our asses I think Kinzingers message was clear Apparently not since people are attacking him That's another reason we will lose

Sorry, but as a concerned independent, I can't.

OK Adam, but it’s OK when Marjorie Taylor Read and Lauren Boebert screaming yelled Biden and the rest of Republicans do the same right shut up

Nah man. Al green stood up & made trump shook. Coulda used a dozen more dems gettin under his skin.

Probably more of a "hey....DNC leadership is all over 70yo"

You know you could lead this party!! It seems if really bad Democrats can leave the party and be president of the republic party you could lead us!! 🤷🏻‍♂️

That was a weak, pitiful display of protest. Sitting quiet? I could think of a lot better, more effective, two word phrases to put on those sign. I respect those that walked out….but damn. Where’s the fire?!

Seriously like that was going to teach them

Is this satire too. 😅🤣😂

Rep. Green has big balls.

Spot on! Adam, you may like this quick read concerning our Democratic congress… open.substack.com/pub/stephani...

I think they all better go buy canes if they don’t already have them and ALL START SWINGING them together. Stand up and and aim!

he tried. He is still working. Why are you picking a fight with him???? Makes zero sense - unless you were absent the last six years

An idea for Dems. Here's how to squeeze Russian oil income, hit its war machine, and aid the US all at the same time. And it’s not complicated. The US could easily meet India’s oil needs, replacing Russia. Is Trump willing to hit Putin where it hurts to benefit the US? cepa.org/article/wean...

At least he did something.

A unified total boycott or walkout would have had a bigger impact. Dems need to get a consistent, tough plan of resistance and stick to it!

Boy you’d be great in combat. Attack your own side. Gthoh Time to unify against the gop maga fascists. Your old party. You helped create this.

Dear Republicans, do something. Anything besides blaming the other side.

At least he did something Sigh...

“Raising some cane!” I liked it, worked for me!

He beat Nazis to death with a baseball bat.

From Inglorious Basterds.

Or hit somebody over the head with it, at least.

that, and I hope the DNC is targeting those special elections.

This is where career politics leads. Lazy, out-of-touch laggards who are afraid of rocking the boat.

20th century solutions to 19th century problems, amiright? 21st century folks

What the hell would you have done Adam? Seriously…… Please enlighten us!

“Speak your mind even if your voice (or cane) shakes.” Maggie Kuhn I will not criticize those who try, that’s how we got here, only those who don’t.

I’m ready to smack some idiot across the face with my cane, and it’s wood, not aluminum. I’m anxious, furious and crazy. Gimme another Xanax, please, I can’t calm down.

yes!

Damn right!

Thank you Rep.Al Green. 🙌🏽💙🥰💙💙

Imagine how much money he'd make as a lobbyist? I think they stay in office for the health insurance.

You're annoying.

Stop shaking it, start swinging it. 💪🏽

No.

Sadly we have 200 Democrats in congress more concerned about keeping their 6 figure income that fighting the good fight... Where is the party of "GOOD TROUBLE"? I'm sick in my stomach. #LeaderJeffries has the energy of a #Sloth and the courage of an #Opossum. We'll not surrender without a fight.
