Americans have to stand fast, for democracy, the way the Nordics are standing fast, for Greenland youtu.be/k1w4HWaDofk?...

Democrats are too consistent in their response to the fascist threat for it to be anything other than a strategic choice made by all of them as a caucus. You assume they aren’t aware of all the means to fight that you so correctly suggest. They haven’t represented us in a long time. It’s on us now.

Same as it was 10 years ago -same shit Different day

It’s time to get more creative in the streets. Setting off car alarms from the safety of inside your home. We have to be the adrenaline in Dems veins because they’re impotent bsky.app/profile/lets...

Oh, great, thanks

It makes me so angry that no one is willing to proactively take action against him. They only react or wait so long to be proactive he's instantly ready to react.

Wherever you live, call your senators & reps to make your voice heard! Call the Do Nothing Dems! Make them sweat 🥵. Posts & comments only accomplish so much & sometimes nothing unless they inform or are followed by action. The public congressional switchboard 📞 # is 202-224-3121. USE IT! PASS IT ON!

Very much agreed. But it would also be good to shout out those congressional Democrats who ARE speaking out.

FIGHT!!! STOP BEING PUSSIES!!!

YES. I remember being lectured by an attorney and former prosecutor so focused on procedures and the necessary *slowness* of judicial process that she *could not* see that we were facing a war, not normal judicial back-and-forth. And here we are. I've never seen her on Blueskyl;

They need to stop waiting to use a blue wave midterm to regain power. They want us to suffer to ensure their election wins. Don’t count on me blindly voting for the democratic ticket. I want a leader who in the face of adversity, can get tough stuff done.

It feels like Democratic leadership is afraid of offending their brunch buddies.

• Force recorded votes on everything. No voice votes. No hiding. Put every member on the record so voters can see exactly who backed what. • Demand quorum calls constantly. Make them show up. Waste their time. Drain the clock. Governing requires attendance. 5.

Damn straight. Thanks for writing this. Many of us have been saying this for decades and it's great now to see such a rising chorus demanding the Dems do their job!

Too many Democrats don't have a spine to do any of this.

AMEN!

The crazy thing is, Democrats USED TO DO THIS. From FDR to LBJ. It's like since Carter, we're always polite.

That's why the Primaries are so very important. We have far too many weak Democrats that don't understand this moment in time of our American history. They could be resisting at much greater levels and they don't. They are more afraid of Corporate money than their constituency. That needs to change.

Outstanding post!!

Having been elected and in the Dem Party, lack of fight is a deep problem. Those who act as opposition are often marginalized within the party. So we need to make sure they get rewarded! For decades Dems have tried to filter out fighters and firebrands in favor of compliant centrism. Here we are!

Since Trump entered office lawyers have been working their butts off challenging Trump in court. They are using the Democratic system in place. We need to VOTE at midterms and turn every seat. Our system can still work for us. That said ALOT of us feel scared & impatient ❤️

Yes, yes and thousand times yes!

The younger Democrats would but a bunch of saggy pants won't let them in.

Democrats have strategies that work when they are in power to actually pass laws that they belief benefit the country. They have assumed good faith from GOP too long. They don’t know how to be an opposition party

We saw the Quisling Caucus in action last month when they completely sold us out on Healthcare in order to get this fascist government up and running again. bsky.app/profile/conr...

Oh, he knows how. He’s just been paid not to.

Just do what they always do. Go on MS NOW and tell us how rotten he is and how great they will be once they have power. Maybe this time they will actually do something

Somehow when Democrats are in power they can't get anything done because of Republican obstruction (fair enough, actually) but when we're out of power we are also powerless to obstruct anything they want to inflict on the country. That just doesn't track.

This sounds like another impatient uninformed citizen that wants Dem congressman Rambo to jump into action

Oh? You want them to do the jobs they were elected for? Frankly, I kind of believe the double talk dems, you know the ones, of being blackmailed. Whether its pedo or some other gross secret, they're lacking good excuses on why their throwing their bodies down like their replacing the carpet.

They dare not back down. It’s time to stop trying to reason with the opposition because the other side is amoral and Cretan-like at best

Is that why you voted for Trump?

And FFs stop throwing each other under the bus and dishing gossip. We don’t want to hear it. Get on the same side and work Together.

If, ranking leader Schumer can’t step up as a voice for democratic policies and fight the maniacal WH toddler, step aside. There are several Senators who are good communicators and highly qualified to put the message out. Let’s not wait until it’s too late.

Yes we are, but nobody is checking power which is a huge problem. The GOP is gutless, and they're in charge....Dems have always trusted the GOP way too much to do the right thing, we see now that they are a bunch of gutless EVIL corrupt idiots and that includes the Supreme Court. What do we do ??

I’m tired of seeing Chuck Schummer sadly read statements lecturing the Republicans. That does NOTHING. Dems have to push push push or not one thing will change.

I’ve been saying that too, but they don’t get it.

I really wish we could get people to understand this. We need to get REALLY loud about removing Schumer from power. We need everbody calling their senators and making this point very clear. bsky.app/profile/conr...

We The People are looking at you @schumer.senate.gov & @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social. Both of you proved us last year that you can't lead. Now is NOT that time to be selfish. Now is time for both of you to step down & let your other colleagues with plenty of courage & fire in their hearts to lead.

Great idea!!

The Ultimate Betrayal: Our government is out of control. They treat & our resources as their personal ATM machine. They have protected themselves from us in thousands of ways. Our government abandoned the constitution long ago. All they have is disdain for us. open.substack.com/pub/mrnobody...

Yes! Now!

Step 1- @schumer.senate.gov steps down or is pushed out Step 2- lock the door after he's out Step 3- send a warning to ALL members of Congress Speak up or you're gone as well!

All of this at once!

Spot fucking on!🎯🎯🎯🎯

🙌🏼 yes OPPOSE harder FIGHT BACK harder

AIPAC won’t let them!

Yes! And find a way to start getting in some good trouble! Don’t complain about being the minority & be afraid to hit the streets with your constituents.

This 💯! 163 million registered democrats in this country — we all deserve representatives that are willing to fight for us. To say that there isn’t much that can be done is malpractice, every possible measure to stop this fascist takeover needs to be taken, including a gov shutdown if needed!🖕🏼🧊

Or act on our behalf instead of whomever the old timers are trying to please now

Fuckin' hey right! We need people with access to levers of power to step up! Average citizens are doing the real fighting! Dems' reluctance & hesitancy will NOT be forgotten! We will remember! HISTORY will remember!

I've given up on Democrats. 😞😞😞

bsky.app/profile/akch...

It’s like they have been paid to loose!

🎯

Dems really need to get a spine.. The women are stronger than the men when it comes to speaking out.. Damned old timers need to be voted out. We need warriors now, unafraid to stand up for democracy without just spouting platitudes.

Beyond calling and protesting how do we get dems to become what we need? I don’t know what else to do!

Agreed. Isn't that what we elect them and pay them for.

I’m not holding my breath. I will vote a straight blue ticket to save the country from white christofascism.

I'm remembering what Robert de Niro said in "Zero Day." In discussion w/his newly formed team 2find out the source of the Cyber attack that shut the country down for a full minute, killing over 3400 people, he said, "No spin. The people need the Truth." This is where we are. "NO SPIN." NO SPIN WINS!

Please step up! @kenmartin.bsky.social @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social @schumer.senate.gov @klobuchar.senate.gov @smith.senate.gov

IMPEACH, CONVICT & REMOVE THE REGIME! tRump & his THUGS, i.e., Crusty Noem.. WHEN will anything be done to STOP IT? An immediate & SANE & LEGAL option is: IMPEACH, CONVICT & REMOVE the REGIME! #'s DOUBLED last time! Each time we win more! Rinse & Repeat until JUSTICE IS SERVED!

Thank youuuuuu!! They can do more!

Democrats will not save us

And if they don’t- still? Call, march, run, vote

Give Nobel Peace Prizes to dictators.

YES,YES,YES,YES,YES,YES,YES,YES!!!

Need to make sure Jasmine Crockett sees this. Making herself the expert in House procedures and whipping her colleagues to stand up is how she can serve her country the best right now.

I will not stop posting this:Fake police,ICE INCELS,Cowards,Mental Eunuchs,Fascist Terrorists.They are thugs:tactics of Gestapo,Stasi,KGB,Stalinś NKVD,Putinś FSB. inhuman barbarians.Inside the FascistHouse (WhiteHouse)calling the shots..THEY ARE INHUMAN BARBARIANS,depraved criminals, Murderers

@democrats.senate.gov @housedemocrats.bsky.social

Agreed. What are we asking them to do specifically?

Yep.

I’m 67, rapidly approaching 68, and agree with you 100%. Dems need strong leadership much younger than me.

Hear hear…

Congressional Democrats overall strategy seems to be to patiently wait until Trump eventually passes away.

Absolutely. Where is the leadership from democrats in Washington?? We see it in the States like California and Minnesota and in NYC, but in Washington: They are either implicated in Epstein or corrupt because they are not leading the people to demand a more civilised egalitarian nation. Shame 👎🫏

I’m fiercely,militantly,bullishly, unapologetically in agreement! This is not a movie,dammit! America is on the line! Stop with the namby pamby, half hearted,oh-so-polite BS and fight like you are defending America! Like those heroes at Normandy! @HouseDemocrats @SenateDems @SenSchumer @RepJeffries

We do not have the leaders we need for this moment!

Schumer: My #1 focus is on affordability

Share this!!

Ok great. What would Nancy do? What are we asking for? Nancy never had to deal with the situation quite this about s***

bsky.app/profile/akch...

s**t or get off the pot

Is it even a possibility in your mind that democrats are willing collaborators

They should be highlighting the Constitutional abuses of ICE everyday. And talking about how Americans are paying the tariffs. Obstruct every vote. Demand answers related to rights being violated. Make it public spectacle. Let’s go already.

I know I'm beating a xylophone in a graveyard trying to get the dead to dance; but the problem is NOT the milk-toast weak & servile career politicians—Democrat & Republic—in Congress. Its the myopic, or selfish, or IDIOT citizens who CHOOSE them actively or by abdication. bsky.app/profile/ibnt...

Tina is cool.

Every damn thing!!

The longer this goes on it seems the fewer we have in our corner.

This!!!! Wake the hell up and start fighting hard, stop being so sweet and kind, it is time to do what is needed!! When ,if not now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This

AMEN. This isn't a fight Schumer understands. The old guys need to quit coming at Trump and his rethugliklans with Roberts Rules of Order and strongly worded letters. Take them to court! Get rude on the floor. Command the news cycle~!

GOP is weak, Democrats are united that changes things we have entered the phase of the information war where DIVIDING THE PEOPLE is their only option watch for the Dem hate at every turn, Democrats are questioned, tested but they are united in popular policies stop minority party hate vote blue 💙

We keep hoping, keep calling, our representatives to tell them the old rules are out the window. Fight this regime like your life depends on it.

Some are. Most aren’t, and that must absolutely fucking change. And yes, I call out my CA Rep and Senators when needed.

We really need to replace them all with fighters like Jasmine Crockett.
