What can he do? Start with some energized rallies. I like Jeffries, but he is too nice for this job right now. "Come together" is not going to cut it right now. I have no desire to come together with people who look the other way while Trump hands over Eastern Europe to Putin.

This used to be a thing when their reelection was on the line because people might not vote for them but in todayтАЩs world where Trump makes statements about Musk saying тАЬHe knows those computers better than anybody. All those computers. Those vote-counting computers. And we ended up winning Pennsylvania like in a landslide." - well we canтАЩt even be sure that they care about our votes.
I downloaded the 5 calls app it gives me the numbers needed, lets me pick what I want to call about, gives me a script. This has been so helpful to me!
I wrote my senator every day for the last couple weeks. Today we hear in a news bulletin that's she's joining Doge to help them root out waste. It's pretty discouraging; so how's everyone else doing with their letter writing/call campaigns.?
Call her and tell her you are not happy about her joining DODGE. The waste is DODGE and Elon's contracts. What about the waste in her Congressional office? Thank you for your work and efforts to contact your representative. Please keep it out and get your friends to help out too.
It has been said in many ways and by people who have worked in a SenatorтАЩs or CongresspersonтАЩs office that the best way to be a real influence is to call not write. Also, go to town halls. I am calling my Congressman every day I can. I have three numbers to his office to choose from. CALL YOUR SENATORS. Oh, and call your Congressperson.
I called and emailed Rep.Tom Kean, R-NJ. I get either a generic letter that doesn't address my issues or when I call they make excuses why he hasn't arranged a town hall. I also called and emailed Sen.Andy Kim, D-NJ and no response. Frankly, I'm disgusted with our country.
Did you ever see the movie The Shawshank Redemption? One of the key characters (played by Tim Robbins) was imprisoned for a murder he didn't commit, but he never lost hope; "Hope is a good thing," he would say.
When he got a work assignment in the prison library he wrote to the same person every day for many weeks (maybe years, I forget now, but it was a long time) asking to donate books to the library. He never got an answer until one day a load of books and records arrived with a response to his letters.
Please keep bugging your representatives every day. Demand answers to your questions. Make them worry they won't get reelected. Call them out on social media and demand a town hall. Hope IS a good thing, and so is persistence.
I am happy to say I live in New York. Senator Schumer tries but he just reads speeches. He needs to have some sort of feeling. Senator Gillibrand does help people but she needs to be more vocal on her stand against Trump. Governor Hochul just laid into Trump about being King. She has finally gotten fierce.
My senator,T Tillis co-sponserd the SAVE ACT,yet I write him everyday requesting he stand up to trump's hateful agenda.It doesn't help but he is getting the msg he is losing support for his run in 2026.
Please keep it up. I live in a very Dem leaning city and state. I attended a Town hall with our US Representative Pramila Jayapal.
She clearly asked us to contact friends who have GOP reps and keep the calls constant. And to find ways to tell the TRUTH. Misinformation continues. Thank you for activism.
I love Pramila! I'm in Adam Smith's district and will be attending a Town hall soon.
Funny story... I saw her in a Burien Italian restaurant were she was seated next to my table. I got star struck! Never thought it could happen to me. :)
I got a link to Adam SmithтАЩs Tele Town Hall for Saturday. I will connect to hear what he has to say. I think I got on his list because I once contacted him. PramilaтАЩs TownHall is now posted on her YouTube channel.
Still call them. Emails are easier to dismiss. I am going to start calling every day and I think I will include Mike Johnson - dirtbag, Jamie Raskin - my hero and Jasmine Crocket - my hero as well.
Keep calling, keep writing, and keep working at the community and city level. BUT, we need our congressional leaders, and especially our selfish, silent Republican senators to stand up with us and use their power to speak out and act on defeating TrumpтАЩs Project 2025 agenda. We need the Democratic Party to identify a charismatic, strong leader NOWтЬМя╕П. ThatтАЩs what I call standing together to keep our country from being sold to Putin. Democracy Strong!
Stand up and scream and be visible. Go by the 10's of thousands and surround Trump at his golf course, the puppets he put into congress and the house and the DOJ and the Supreme Court. We outnumber them by millions and millions!
Jeffries comment to vote in the midterms in order to turn the legislation around is niave..too nice..the gop has hijacked our voter system. They simply ignore or manipulate counts, or suppress our vote. I won't stop voting, but I know it may be compromised. Remember during the election he promised to "fix" things so we would" never have to vote again "
There won't be a y elections.They also passed a bill that you need a birth certificate and a passport to vote. Married women's names won't match on both documents. So they won't be allowed to vote. The only thing I can think of is women go to their maiden name
Where and when did this happen? I searched and found nothing about it. Can you provide any info to back your statement up. If it's true I'm heading directly to DC. I travel for free...
You call that corruption? Receiving money from AIPAC (American Israel Public Affairs Committee)? And of course you have proof of this? The most corrupt politician in America is Donald Trump. No one comes close to him.
As I asked above, where is your proof? Also, may I add, what were any funds received used for? If they were campaign contributions, that is perfectly legal. AIPAC is US based. Any other uses, you will have to document.
Now was that so hard? I will look at it and make my decision. Actually, I would need more than one point of contact, but if it looks like there is anything in it, I will explore further.

Make Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett the Minority Leader.
YES! Or AOC!
I love her feistiness. I want my granddaughters to grow up to be like her.
Yes. Yes. Yes. Barbara Jordan will smile so mightily.
Hell yes! She's the real MVP
Write AND CALL your congressional leaders today, now, and demanding they vote NO on this budget.
If it means shutting down the government, do it.
And do this on a regular basis, flood them with repeated calls and emails. I even contact congressman outside of my state

He always tells on himself

Rest assured she took the payoff. Musk is an endless pit of wealth. He is trying to buy and rule the world!

Please keep on him to stand up to Cap'n Bone Spurs and support Zelenskyy and Ukraine.
I called my senator and have heard ZERO back from him!!
Our own senators are abandoning us..
Both of my senators are republicans and one is so entrenched in MAGA it makes me sick. That doesn't stop me. I email, it's easier for me.

same here in Florida, dyed red and I do not want to hear from them
Gee, that's too bad. I got an email today about my SS concerns and our nation.

Yes, if you are lucky enough to get a response. Most of the GOP lawmakers are hiding.
I threatened mine with protests when he comes back and that I would be front and center. There are a bunch of us that will show up and we are pissed.
Unfortunately, my congressman is MAGA.
Same here, but I write and in fact bombard all three of those red f*ckers email boxes daily!

are "Arabs and Muslims for Trump" happy now? just asking........
I have no idea why do you ask?
'cause it's a part of the problem the host of the link you're spamming with should know.....

They have also tried to pause passport renewals to prevent woman from obtaining the necessary proof that they now require for woman to vote

This country cannot last for another 2years.
My sentiments exactly.
this horror can't be tolerated for another two hours let alone two years!!
You ainтАЩt say nothin yet. Wait till he takes over the post office department.
AMEN

Find some balls Jeffries
Correct me if I am wrong but Democratic congress people have been protesting out in front of the departments that are getting cut.
They are the minority they do not have enough votes to change legislation, I see them protesting ont he floor of congress and also out in the streets.
They are all having Town Hall Meetings in their districts.
I think they are making the best of a bad situation.
Jefferies is the poster child for corruption heтАЩs number two for receiving AIPAC funds
You call that corruption? Receiving money from AIPAC (American Israel Public Affairs Committee)? And of course you have proof of this? The most corrupt politician in America is Donald Trump. No one comes close to him.
I guess from your note you donтАЩt call that corruption,..
How did that get normalized in your mind?
The second highest receiver of AIPAC in Congress, I guess I should be impressed, huh?
As I asked above, where is your proof? Also, may I add, what were any funds received used for? If they were campaign contributions, that is perfectly legal. AIPAC is US based. Any other uses, you will have to document.
What is legal today and what is correct and right are two different things,.

Let me know what you think after you watch this
Now was that so hard? I will look at it and make my decision. Actually, I would need more than one point of contact, but if it looks like there is anything in it, I will explore further.
So what do you say now?
