Red state schools rely more on federal assistance. They’ll feel It first😐

I even wonder if those in congress even know where their district is.

I’m a blue dot in a very small town. Folks here just learned of a 20% cut in food flow from USDA to our town’s food bank. They don’t understand how this can happen. I do. 🤷‍♀️

This!!!

yes, we have to see how these illegal orders are faring with regular Americans, especially those who voted for Trump. If they are ready to join against him and Musk, no recriminations. It's already going to be a long haul and we need all the unity we can muster.

This is a good point. But in reality, it’s going to take 6+ months for the effects to roll through and people start getting upset. When they or their good friend loses a job they didn’t realize was connected to govt.

I’m not convinced that most of them want to do the work.

When you ask a trumpster what would make him change his mind, a very common answer is if he doesn't deport all the illegal aliens. I just looked at an ICE web site. To say it's a joke insulting all jokes. www.ice.gov/spotlight/st...

Lord my 2 Orc Senators & House Orc scared to death to see any of us in SE NC.

They need to do both!! When they have to be in DC they need to protest in DC! When they are at home, they definitely should follow this advice.

I’ve been saying this for weeks - demonstrate at affected areas and upload video of it all.

Yes. The districts are so far from dc the folks here barely feel the changes as the trickle down sh$@storm hasn't reached us yet. But it's gonna hit EVERYONE We need billboards or marquis announcing what is going on so everyone can see!

Specially in Red Districts, flood their Zones

👏👏👏👏

Yes. This is the way. 🎯 Christopher, totally nailed it.

Truth! Thank you 🙏🏼

They have nothing in common with their constituents. They wouldn't even know what to say. They've been busy hiding from us for a decade. Nobody has Town Halls because they're all scared of what they're going to hear. It's a nice, safe cocoon in Washington, where you work 130 days a year.

I don't think they know. Fox News is telling them we are sending $15MM worth of condoms to Gaza and about calling it fraud and abuse. They don't talk about the cuts to the programs that impact them.

My late best friend constantly said "you just can't fix stupid". We met working together so I heard her say this often.

@generalstrikeus.bsky.social

I’m not saying we shouldn’t be doing something but Magas don’t listen, are incapable of critical thinking so it seems. And Dems need to be hearing a few things too before spouting typical rhetoric followed by inaction… this 2 party grift needs a serious overhaul. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Gotta make it real for the constituents if they want change

Yes. Because until it hits the actual person...you or the person you know it just isn't real yet. Today someone posted about going to a national park and the park ranger said he was given his notice-that he will be fired.

Are these people not getting themselves or their children vaccinated because they really believe RFK’s bullshit? One more time for the people in the back or on X or wherever- EVERYBODY IN THIS ADMIN AND THEIR FAMILIES ARE VAXXED UP! DO NOT BELIEVE OTHERWISE!!!!

That's right, take it home. When people feel the pain it's nice to have someone they know tell them why.

Yes they do. I see an insurrection coming! We must form a militia and arm ourselves to take back our country!

Why isn't every elected Democrat out there every second explaining in plain English that Donald Trump has declared war on cancer patients? It's “free real estate”, don’t wait for focus groups or polls. hold press conferences, physically show up, demand meetings with fed employees

Follow up on stories too!

Right and if that doesn't work, we should all March to the white house when they all are there together, and run them out, drag them out if we have to..lol..we need results now!

I think this is a great idea.

I think it's too late though.

He does visit businesses as well. He visited my employer about over a dozen yrs ago (renewable energy).

Do you have a link? I haven’t seen it.

He did. His 2nd town hall yesterday was in a small rural town. I used to live near there & it's a pretty red part of Oregon but about 600 showed up. 💙 The TH I went to was at a middle school, so IDK what you're expecting. He has 1 TH in every district in the state every year.

They did that during the 2024 election and people effectively flipped them the bird. It's going to have to get much worse before it gets better.

I just read an article about it. 🙌🏼🙌🏼

The town hall meetings for a big crowd to raise hell at are the Republicans', but the one in my district isn't until next month and it seems like he's trying to screen those who attend. Mills, BTW, is every bit as crazy as MTG. dcinbox.com/email/?id=21...

100+ constituents showed up for my Congressman's office hours townhall. Guess who didn't show up.

Same is true here in bassackward Missouri. We are represented by sackless Felon47 ass kissers.

Abso-f'in-lutely!! And make sure it is reported on local news!!

Agree. the old model of getting in front of legacy media is just not effective anymore.

☺️

No matter what they do, someone- usually a Republican, always has advice to give the Democrats to “do the other thing, because we say this is the wrong thing”.

Pete b!

This should be done 1st thing Monday morning.

@jasmineforus.bsky.social Forward this. It's go time.

@warren.senate.gov not my idea it's Kats Discuss and do. Don't talk about it be about it. It's go time to defend our democracy who cry's out for men and women of courage and valour. We must act to push back the authoritarian theocracy dictatorship.

@raskin.house.gov Sir please pass this along . Time is of the essence . Democracy is crying out for men and women of bravery and resolve through actions

Absolutely SuperBoost this now

Yes!! We definitely can’t count on the media doing anything….

The average citizen pays little to no attention to what goes on in Washington, but they sure as heck pay attention to what goes on in their homes and neighborhoods. Dems need to meet them where they live. Come on down and talk to me.

Exactly

THIS IS THE WAY!

Absolutely. @wyden.senate.gov Gets it. bsky.app/profile/wyde...

Cool! He needs a bigger hall!

Mass firings of federal employees are underway. Organize. Call your reps. Fight back. Organize. Call your reps. Fight back. Organize. Call your reps. Fight back. Organize. Call your reps. Fight back. Organize. Call your reps. Fight back. Organize. Call your reps. Fight back.

Exactly...take it to the people. The same way they would if they were campaigning. Town halls, local appearances, ads on local networks, neighborhood websites, etc.

Absolutely! The Rethuglikkkans in the House & Senate could care less about protests! If the decent members of those groups had their local staff collect & compile the cases of how the people have been effected & during debate/discussion of each bill before them the cases were read into the Record!

I agree!!

We need to show up to their offices pounding on the doors with a steady stream of disruption so that they have to pay their staffers overtime. So that they have to hire more staff. I’m not even slightly kidding. It’s the only hope.

Agreed. Make it personal. So many of my patients are losing their Medicaid and thereby losing all of their medical coverage. People will go without care and medication, and people will die.

I wish you luck deprogramming them. My father just threatened me because I'm not a MAGAT. You have fun with the Nazi deprogramming. I'm writing them off as lost causes

I think I'm hearing you say they are cultists? Or maybe I misunderstood. My grandfather rescued Jews from internment camps during the Holocaust. He was able to go undercover because he was a German immigrant.

The fight against propaganda MUST come from their neighbors and people in communities around them. For example, someone in rural Iowa is not going to listen to someone from Chicago, and if their rep is lying to them, the only way to get through is thru community. That’s why we go on OFFENSE!

Like, they went to fancy schools, I get it, that’s why they’re in charge. That’s one of the draws of dingus and troglodytes, they speak like their in alley and not in giant board room or court room. Court rooms suck and no one ever talks straight.

NOPE! Biz as USUAL is NOT WORKING. The LAWS created to PROTECT WE THE PEOPLE are NOT WORKING. If U are a MEMBER of the Black Community, WHAT EXACTLY are YOU DOING to SOLVE THIS BULLSHIT and THIS ATTACK on Humankind? NOTHING RIGHT? PLZ tell US what YOU are doing other than posting online, or STFU.

A better statement is, 'We know the government needs to collect taxes fairly from ALL citizens; therefore, the emphasis should be on just taxation as well as elimination of fraud and abuse through through investigation.'

Yes!! THIS ☝🏻

CALL TO ACTION - Sign Petition To STOP Medicaid & SNAP Cuts in Reconciliation Bill to fund billionaires' tax cuts & $150 billion more for defense spending. These programs save lives everyday. - PLEASE SHARE WIDELY #DontCutMedicaid #DontCutSNAP #ProtectSNAP #ProtectMedicaid chng.it/6Mzxqkcp5Y

Anti-maga rallies. A lot of them. By all Democratic members of congress in their districts. The simple message rallies like trump used for disinformation for 10 years now. Turn it on them and have mega Democrat rallies with FACTUAL information. Simple facts. Easy to see by the public.💯💙

And in Oregon, how they’ll feel when their communities burn to a crisp because there aren’t enough fire fighters. It’s going to happen. Frequently.

Yes!! This right here!! 💯💯

Show the average Americans!

👏👏👏👏

Well, then I guess we're going to have to educate all of them.

Brilliant

Keep blowing up the phones, especially in red areas!

With the government stopping the handouts, the Red states are going to be the first to suffer. I guess they're going to have to go through some suffering before they realize what they've done.

Senators Merkley and Wyden are doing that in Oregon currently. They are reporting great attendance! 👏👏👏

and to be honest, i think there is ALOT we can learn from the ingenuity of resistance fighters during the war ... need to think outside the box, get creative, how did they communicate when free speech was suppressed and Hitler controlled the media? No different. Research ways they operated...do it

you do it on BlueSky; Facebook, Meidas Touch; Tik Tok; rally supporters who share it with their trumpian friends and family ... but regardless, the PEOPLE will see them caring about the school closure, their unemployment...trump isn't there with them. dems need to be.

FYI….

Many of us Border Neighbor 💙State Residents w Professional Licensure Reciprocity Pay Taxes in Multiple States like Travel RNs Retirees that Snowbird or Spend 💰in♦️States hunting 🛶🛩🎡🏟🏕🎿🎣🤿⛳️ concerts Cabins need to tell♦️Neighbors we aren't spending/visiting if family/friends aren't safe or valued there

This is nice. We don’t have any congressional democrats here in Alaska, but sounds nice.

Yes!!! Tomorrow, Every state every capital.🇺🇲⬇️⬇️⬇️

100% ppl need to see and know what is happening in their towns

We want more town halls, more district office action!

Why would WE have to tell them? that's why we have got to stop coddling them! yes they're not in powered they have all the power around them recources, staffers connections to officials in high places in different areas of expertise to formulate a plan! ANY PLAN is better than speeches!

Funny how when Bush Clinton Bush Jr and Obama did the same thing it was ok and no one spoke out left or right. Now its Orange man bad. Maybe its because I am seeing it now because of social media. Time will tell. Good news they found over 2 Trillion dollars of fraud in Medicare. Next audit Ft Knox.

Bill Clinton did this so effectively when he ran for president bis first term. They need to channel him.

What I’ve seen so far has been really disappointing. Hakeem Jeffries was going on about Trump breaking his promise to lower food prices after being asked what his biggest concern was with the current administration. Really? That’s top of the list???

"Real" means nothing to Trumpers.

The FBI is now among the scammers.

Yup red ones more because the GOP ain’t doing it

‘All politics are local.’ (Thomas ‘Tip’ O’Neill, former House Speaker) Time to explain that to the yokels.

Completely agree. When it gets really hard for MAGAs, they may wake up and leave the cult. I have no empathy for them; their pain was self-inflicted.

Yes! DC is no longer under siege from MAGA — It is now overrun. Time to leave lost territory, and fight the war battle by battle, throughout the states.
