I have many complaints about the Dems (and my typos), but this seems to be exactly what they are doing.
What the messaging worked so well they moving on:

You know it is important and splitting the GOP who for whatever reason won’t fund healthcare for their constituents. Clean vote on the issue, hangs terrible on them. Plus, house pressure to meet, swear in Dem, and Epstein files vote comes.

This honestly says so much. The good, the bad, and the ugly of these people.

Oz, good job stepping up right away!

POTUS looks bewildered and not processing at all.

Lutnick rubbing his nose but aware something is up.

And the absolute worst, RFK Jr. devoid of any empathy, just walks out.
RFK Jr's response to someone collapsing nearby him was to haul ass out of the room as quickly as possible

Perry: "Deportations are up. Arrests are up. … The courthouse remains open and always has. Federal laws are being executed. They're also being broken, as they have been since the beginning of time."

Trump: "The problem with Vietnam, we, you know, we stopped fighting to win. We would've won easy. We would've won Afghanistan easy. We would've won every war easy. But we got politically correct. 'Oh, let's take it easy.' We're not politically correct anymore, just so you understand."

“It is due process, and due process alone, that allows you to demonstrate that you are a citizen. Without it, the masked men in the black vans can simply claim that you are a foreign terrorist and disappear you.”
