We’re in a moral fight, and Democrats in Congress need to start acting like the opposition party on every 👏🏽 damn 👏🏽 thing 👏🏽 Opposition isn’t about polite press releases and sad cable hits. It’s about using every procedural tool available to slow, expose, and force accountability. 🧵

Republicans do this ruthlessly when they’re in the minority. Dems act like it’s impolite. That’s a frustrating choice as a voter, given the fascist regime we have ruling this country. 2.

• Stop saving them from themselves. No bipartisan cover for chaos. No “adults in the room” routine. Let them own the mess. • Withhold unanimous consent. Stop letting Republicans fast-track everything because it’s “easier.” Make them earn every inch. 4.

• 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.

• Force full bill readings. Every bill. Every page. Read it aloud on the floor before any vote. If it’s so great, they can stand there and own it. • Use procedural objections aggressively. Object to motions. Object to shortcuts. Object to rushed timelines. Drag it all into the light. 6.
