Dear Congress;
You WORK FOR US, not for Donald Trump. You REPRESENT US, not Trump. You swear an oath to the CONSTITUTION, not to Trump. Your focus is on bettering the lives of your CONSTITUENTS, not lining the pockets of yourselves and Trump. We the People are sick and tired of your arrogance.

I just sent this to my rep in the US House of Representatives:

"According to 538.com you vote with Trump 90.9% of the time. You don't represent me or my values. In fact your votes in the House harm me, constituents in your district and all average Americans in that your votes erode the rule (1/5)

Sleazy MAGA senator @marshablackburn.bsky.social is all in on Trump's moronic plans to buy Greenland & take over the Panama Canal. She knows it's ludicrous but she also knows unhinged MAGAs will vote for her. She has zero integrity & patriotism.

Family member at holiday party: "I couldn't vote for either presidential candidate; they are both so terrible." 😵‍💫

This is why we can't have nice things like democracy, healthcare, public servants who work for us, justice, fair taxation, etc.

RFK Jr's lawyer has asked the FDA to revoke approval for the polio vaccine. Why?

> To spread outrage & fear, distracting us as the Trump mob loots our Treasury & resources

> To terrorize us into feeling hopeless & powerless

Will Dem opposition leaders emerge & fight with us? Can we prevail?

Poor Joni Ernst! She's torn between having a shred of integrity & patriotism vs. voting to confirm sexual predator, liar & nazi Pete Hegseth. Tough choice, Joni?

Iowa, you must be so proud of your Senator.

South Carolina's MAGA legislature is trying to establish the death penalty as punishment for anyone who has an abortion. In the US. In 2024.

We are being force-marched to a christo-fascist dictatorship. Elections have consequences. www.huffpost.com/entry/south-...

It’s unlikely that the bill will become law, but abortion rights advocates in the state warn it sends a message about what’s to come.

@MorningJoe.bsky.social: Congrats, you obeyed in advance.

You are both appalling sycophants & cowards. I'd say shame on you but you have no shame. Your show is dead to me now.

If you think Morning Joe & Mika visiting Mar a Lago to kiss Trump's ring & obey in advance was disgusting, stop watching them & all Vichy news shows.

We didn't prevail at the voting booth but we still have the power to "vote" with our viewing habits & where we decide to spend our money. Resist!

A strategy for managing the stress of the ongoing assault on our democracy & us:

> I try to recognize when I start catastrophizing.
> I say "This does not serve my best interests."
> I focus on literally anything else to short-circuit the useless catastrophizing.

I focus on ways I can resist.

I'm confused. Isn't a history of pedophilia, sexual assaults & rapes & covering up for MAGA sexual predators a prerequisite for getting a job with the Trump admin? Well, that + blind loyalty? Hegseth meets these requirements.

Senator Thune thinks Senate Dems might want to "play ball" to confirm pedophile sex trafficker Gaetz as AG? Russian asset Tulsi as DNI? Whacko anti-vaxxer RFK Jr as head of HHS? Fox host Hegseth as Sec Def?

Has poor Sen Thune been in a coma for the last 9+ yrs? If so, I hope he feels better soon!

Senator Thune voted to acquit Trump following the 2nd impeachment trial but said "My vote to acquit should not be viewed as exoneration ... What former President Trump did to undermine faith in our election system and disrupt the peaceful transfer of power is inexcusable.”

Profiles in Cowardice.
