    Also there House of Representatives, the Senate, the Supreme Court and about half of the state legislatures.

    All are extensions of the Putin regime.

    It’s funny how this meeting included “shouting and fingerpointing”, but Rubio had a complete “meltdown” in his interview. This description is accurate, but you’d think this would be described more along the lines “Trump and Zelensky murder each other’s children while declaring a blood feud” in comparison.

    Then fucking do something about it you feckless pussies. Stop with the sound bites of shit every single sane person in the United States of America already knows.

        I remember when the qons broke into a SCIF meeting and paid no penalty for it.

        Yeah, it was probably performative bullshit. But at least it demonstrated that qons stood for something (even if in their case, it was total nonsense).

        Voters would like to see Democrats fighting for them.

        They can follow the republican playbook. They can disrupt, delay, ignore calls to quorum, filibuster, generally shit-talk the sitting government, and crucify fellow democrats that capitulate on every platform and in every instance. They will still lose but it would be a damn sight better than watching this group of corporate dick-sucks flounder around like they are just lost.

        Thank Jebus for AOC and that other dude whose name escapes me at the moment but mostly the one-man army that has been Bernie Sanders since the election. You should see every single one, especially those ranking democrats, in the media every day just flat out mother fucking this administration and the Republicans just as the Republicans did for the last 4 years to Biden. Instead, we get crickets or sound bites about how the last election wasn’t the American people rebuking the democratic party because that’s what we need right now Nancy, old people telling us what we just saw wasn’t what actually happened.

        As long as they have a pulse there should be a fight, the time for decorum is long past.

          so you’re just criticizing them for not giving you entertainment and calling them feckless pussies as if they’re nazi collaborators even when they’re openly accusing the new regime of being traitors

          supporting them would be more effective

      “Slammed”

      “Pounded”

      “Owned”

      etc…

      This is the consequence of mistaking the theater of the act for an act of theater. Appearances matter, narratives matter: but do not mistake them for the thing they represent. A flourish is necessary, but not the same as the strike itself.

    If Democrats had some sort of plan against what’s happening, they would ALL be saying this, over and over, to all journalists in every news organization and podcast.

    They should lead the pushback but they look like spectators.
