We’ve often criticized Democrats’ opposition strategy to Trump and Republicans’ assault on our health, economic security, and democracy — but not this time.
Democrats are right to force recorded votes on every Trump nominee. Republicans are whining only because Trump is getting fussy. 🧵

Senate Republicans eye 'nuclear option' for rules change to speed up Trump nominees
Senate Majority Leader John Thune said he plans to begin the process to change the Senate's rules Monday, allowing Republicans to confirm Trump nominees in blocks.

To appease their king, the GOP will once again change the rules to screw over the American people.
When the rules of budget reconciliation said Republicans couldn’t do tax breaks for billionaires and corporations, they changed the rules to pretend that those tax cuts were ‘free.’

Prediction: every successful new Senate Dem candidate this cycle will run against Chuck Schumer. It's good primary politics and it's good general election politics. No brainer.
“I have been so frustrated seeing really a lack of a plan and a lack of a response coming from our current party leadership,” the Democratic lawmaker Mallory McMorrow said in an interview with The Associated Press.

Congress is now headed home for recess and we will be there to hold them accountable. We're planning town halls and events across the country to make sure everyone knows about the Trump-Musk coup. We can't count on all our supposed leaders to fight back, so it's time for us to turn up the pressure.

This isn't a fight between progressives and moderates. The House Democratic Caucus was practically unanimous in its opposition to the bill. This is a struggle between those of us who are willing to fight back against authoritarianism and those who aren't. We deserve leaders who share our commitment.

In a total betrayal of their constituents and our democracy, 10 Democrats just voted with Senate Republicans to give Trump and Musk a blank check to continue their coup. @schumer.senate.gov led Democrats to this total surrender. We need strong leadership, not cowards who cave at any GOP pressure.

I think Trumps plan to take over DC government is to stop all protests in DC. He expects what he is doing will be unpopular and he sees how pop up protests get news coverage etc. No display of opposition in DC.
