Democratic leadership announced their plans to play the 2013 Katy Perry song “Roar” very loud in response to the aggressive start of President Donald Trump’s second term.
They can’t do anything except block and delay bills.
They can’t filibuster cabinet picks or court confirmations. They can filibuster bills but the only bill in the process of discussion is the federal budget and the Republicans win whether it doesn’t pass and shuts down the federal governments or it does pass and cuts a trillion in benefits that help american working class so they can cut taxes for the rich.
America is experiencing a fascist dictatorship and you want the only party speaking against it to just stand by because the system doesn’t allow them to do anything??
How about FUCK THE SYSTEM!!! Trump and his cronies don’t care about it. You’re not going to beat wanna-be dictators with 0 disregard for the law by doing everything by the book.
Block the doors to the house and Senate rooms, encourage and participate in civil disobedience, get operatives to physically block Elon and his felons from illegally accessing extremely sensitive data about America’s allies and citizens. Loudly and passionately call out every anti-democracy, anti-American, and anti-human act that Trump and his gang are doing and explain exactly how it’s going to enrich them and other billionaires and how it’s going to seriously harm everyone else. Encourage and work with grassroots organisations across the country to gum up the MAGA Republican works.
The Democratic party leadership are should be the leaders of a movement defending against the destruction of America and it’s allies from within the country’s highest positions of power for the benefit of a small few wealthy and powerful people. This is a historical moment that is very likely to lead to the suffering and deaths of countless human beings within America and around the world, and could possibly lead to a world war the likes of which we have never seen. I want them to fucking ACT like it.
They need to do more than read dry, impassionate speeches and post boring tweets. America is dying and if the country is expecting the system to save them then chances are they’re already lost.
A few weeks back a bunch of Democratic Congresspeople went to the Department of Education with a whole media circus in tow, and were blocked from entering by a single small man, who couldn’t have weighed more than 150lbs soaking wet, who claimed to be hired by Musk and working for the federal government despite not providing any ID. The Democrats gave up and left.
Like fucking what? Are you kidding me? You are members of Congress! Just fucking push past him! Either that security guard has the authority to keep you out, in which case they’d have to go through the terrible fucking optics of arresting a sitting congressperson for accessing a government building, or he doesn’t actually have the authority in which case you have a duty to tell him to fuck off.
Yeah exactly they are too comfortable taking no for an answer. They should have even asked permission they should have barged in. If they were truly representing me that’s what they would do. Any kind of confrontation and they just cave.
Would still be more effective than…whatever it is that they’re doing.
They can’t do anything except block and delay bills.

They can filibuster bills but the only bill in the process of discussion is the federal budget and the Republicans win whether it doesn’t pass and shuts down the federal governments or it does pass and cuts a trillion in benefits that help american working class so they can cut taxes for the rich.
So they can do nothing.

They’re just spineless.

Quiet quitting
Realizing they lost the game they didn’t know they were playing yet.
It bothers me that you can see the Google logo in that coffee
Trump declaring himself King and you people still blame the Democrats, huh? Good luck with that.
So what’s the people with actual power we voted into office to stop Trump doing?
It certainly isn’t even voting no on his choices. They aren’t protesting in the streets. They aren’t hauling the construction of labor camps.
A literal king is being put into place they just sit on their hands going “We need just $5 from you today to stop this!”
You can be mad at more than one group of useless dipshits at the same time.
“No if you don’t like that people with power and money aren’t stopping Trump, you clearly support trump!”
I fucking hate the one dimensional thinking liberals brainwashed themselves into.
