Every elected Democrat should be in Washington right now, not because it is some act of patriotism , but because IT IS THEIR JOB. They should be on the floor of the House and Senate, speaking with media, and being the leaders they were elected to be. With this thing looming, why are ANY of them not in Washington RIGHT NOW?
As much as I agree, there is more that can be done without a "woah is me" demeanor. The first example is the STUNNING display by our fellow Americans, throughout the country, with the NO KINGS marches. If we all gather together, locally, and start at ground floor, we have the drive to more higher on our social pole quicker.
Changes take time. But with each change we make, we need to celebrate it as victory.
But time isn’t unlimited and the time to act to protect our Constitution and the services that provide life saving healthcare is now. We can’t afford to wait.
Rosemary, you are not being helpful. And I couldn’t disagree more about our current situation, which is fucked, but we are not fucked until and unless we agree to the fucked narrative. Hope you feel better soon. It’s really up to you.
Rosemary, I am listening to Dr. Steve Hassan on Substack. You may like his 7/13/2025 live posting. He’s the person I trust most when it comes to managing emotions in hellish times. Hope you find him a useful resource as well. Best wishes
The tax cuts the GOP/MAGA continue to insist on make no sense from the stated "trickle down" economics. They never have had the effect promised. BUT, if you look at them from another perspective, they make infinite GOP sense. Since Citizens United, our elections run on money not passion or good policy...MONEY. And who gives money to fund the GOP? Billionaires and corporations (and PAC/Super PAC's). Tax cuts for the wealthy and corporations means more money for their campaigns. Simple as that.
Trump, is making America one of the poorest and most in debt countries in the world. Tariffs are paid by the American importers and passed on to the American public, whilst simultaneously stopping the fed from being able to drop interest rates (Google the head of the fed stating this, if you don’t believe me.) Whilst stripping benefits from the middle and lower classes to provide a tax cut on gun silencers?!?!. If your rep votes for this bill, make a mental note on who you have to blame.
I'm sorry but I don't think even Freedom caucus have 4 House Congress that will have the balls to stand by their campaign promises of not increasing the deficit...especially by 4 Trillion!
We should say that this Bill is IMMORAL. It take Medicare and SNAP benefits to give tax cuts to Billionaires. Why are you willing to vote for an IMMORAL BILL.

This is an important point. THIS is the appropriate time for one of them to pull the fire alarm.
Yes.
This country is fucking over😡😡😡👺😡We are all doomed! There will be genocide in this country 😡😡👺👺😈😈😈we are reliving Germany in the 1930’s.
This July 4th will be spent mourning the loss of this country’s independence 😢😞

Thanks I will check him out
I appreciate your service (a very apt response, i feel, because some of us are confined to work hours and slave wages.)
As a person who witnessed, first hand, you would be a perfect example and one who could pull people together.
I agree! We need to protest on July 4th not celebrate! We’re looking at the end of our independence, not celebrating when it began!!
WE ARE NOT OVER; the FIGHT IS ON. ♥️🇺🇸♥️🇺🇸

It’s grotesque
Get busy Democrats! Stop every part of this bill. It's corruption in its fullest.
Republicans stand up against this. It's your country being grifted apart.
Please tell us what u like in this bill?
SO...what do you think is GOOD in this bill? 75%, ya gotta be kidding!
Dude, give your name, etc. Got no idea if this is real or fake, who you are and where you’re from and who you represent. Pro tip, btw.
Why were most airline flights cancelled yesterday?
Yeah, well now what I think we’re done

This Bill is Immoral! It takes from the poorest and gives to wealthiest. How can you justify a tax increase on the backs of the poor.
We should say that this Bill is IMMORAL. It take Medicare and SNAP benefits to give tax cuts to Billionaires. Why are you willing to vote for an IMMORAL BILL.
It’s not the Democrats that we need to be focused on is the Republicans that are voting on this bullshit.
Vote No! The future generations will remember how you burdened them with your selfishness greed.
Agreed 💯
