Now we're fighting back. What can you do against foreign-backed traitors like Trump and Musk?

The DNC is targeting Republicans in town halls across the country. Now if you're in Cali like us, there aren't any (yet), but you can spread this around. democrats.org/news/democrats-t

Democrats · Democrats to Hold “People’s Town Halls” in Competitive GOP-Held Districts As Republicans Are Hiding From Their Voters & Constituents - Democrats

For those saying we just need to wait out the next four years, or we’ll vote trump out in four years …

WTF are you talking about? At the rate Trump and the Republicans are demolishing the foundations of American democracy there won’t be a vote in four years. They’ve only begun shredding the Constitution.

Just in case those opposed to Trump think there have been #protests in the US... here's an image of what tiny Serbia is able to do. Compare that today's and yesterday's paltry efforts in the US. Serbia today has had over 100,000- the US several thousand.

Some #Democrats argue that it’s complicated; that the consequences of party solidarity regarding the recent vote on a ‘continuing resolution’ to keep the government open for business would not be, on balance, worthy of their opposition. Ten Democratic senators to be precise. I VIGOROUSLY DISAGREE! If we’re going to be a true OPPOSITION party, then we need to resist — at every turn, for as long as it takes. Resistance is built on solidarity. If our voters can’t trust us, count on us, to actively resist in a strategic and organized fashion, then we’re gonna lose them AGAIN. Just like we did in the last general election. As grass-roots activists, it’s up to us to insist on better leadership and demand solidarity. There must be a price to pay for centrist obstruction and betrayal. Let’s start with the rogue’s gallery below. #politics #USPol #USPolitics #betrayal #solidarity #DemocraticParty

Primary every Democrat
It’s time Democrats listen to us, and we’re going to have to do it the hard way.

My name is Meredith Shiner, and I am not (yet) a candidate for Senate. But I am inviting you to join me in a massive, diffuse, and fledgling national campaign to make our government, should it continue to exist, better by primarying every Democrat. Because if they want to keep these jobs, then they should have to fight us for them. They should learn to fight for something.

The New Republic · Primary Every DemocratIt’s exhausting to watch poll-tested, donor-beholden congressional Democrats continue to be too old, too cloistered, and too bumbling to do anything as the government burns.

Today is a good day to spot unserious people.

Yesterday, demanding that #Democrats filibuster the #Republican #ContinuingResolution could be motivated by one of two opposite reasons: 1) pressure the party to unite behind a single tactic; 2) amplify division over the tactics.

Now that the filibuster didn't happen, ripping into Democrats who refused to do it can only be motivated by reason #2. These are not serious people.

Serious people are moving on to the next opportunity to unite us.

So, is this the way it’s going to go when the MAGA-GOP decides to end Social Security & Medicare & the ACA, along with Medicaid, SNAP, Veterans’ benefits; when they institute a national abortion ban, outlaw contraception, declare same-sex marriage illegal, nullify First Amendment rights, and end birthright citizenship &
the two-term presidential limit?

With polling numbers HEAVILY against most of the unconstitutional shenanigans 47 & Elmo are up to, I expected more pushback from Dem leadership. Or maybe we just need new leadership.

@jaykuo Huh. Jeffries told Dems NOT to protest the tRumpo address. The ONLY CORRECT thing would be to boycott totally that address, or to turn their backs and walk out. But jeffries wanted "dignity".

Jeffries does NOT "get it". He merely sees an opportunity to gain influence within dem party.

He spread his ass cheeks to Johnson, and elected to flop in the House, just like rat schumer did in the Senate.

Don't bring strong worded letters to a gunfight.

#GovernmentShutdown resolution passed by Senate.

These 9 #Democrats voted with #Republicans to get it passed:

Catherine Cortez Masto Nev.

Dick Durbin Ill.

John Fetterman Pa.

Kirsten Gillibrand N.Y.

Margaret Wood Hassan N.H.

Gary Peters Mich.

Brian Schatz Hawaii
