MAGA Senator who tried to deliver fake electors to Pence. He would just smile and nod and DO NOTHING! We need a better response than lawsuits and calling to a volunteer.
There is! Tomorrow at 5 pm, get to DC for the treasury protest. Every American citizen needs to call congress and let them know were are watching. NOBODY calls congress to out them on notice, except for a few activists on a regular basis. You cannot have that attitude or belief, that’s how authoritarianism wins. Are you going to allow them to win?
Sadly, not feasible for me to get to DC but I will call in. I am not against calling or writing , but when Ron Johnson is one of your Senators, it’s been fruitless so far. But yes, have to try.
I understand, I can’t get to DC either; I’m in NY and in grad school. You call every single day, several times a day. They need to know they work for the people and are officially on notice. We are in this together 💐
You have to be a thorn in their sides and be ok doing so. America is losing in this world. We are a third world country. Other countries are decades ahead of the game. We have to fight the fascism and oppression.
I just used them to call my 2 senators and my rep. It was super easy and I was able to get a "human" in 2 out of the 3 calls. I called their DC offices. I encourage everyone to do this. 5 Calls made it a bit easier with a "suggested" script.
I'm 71 with cancer we are in control Catherine. Let them know I'm in California and in a wheelchair. I may not be able to march but I can roll. Call your family friends and neighbor's tell them what they can do. Call everyday 100 times if you have to. This is our time to make our nation great not some butthead.
That is right but don't make it a march just once make it once a month push his trash back on him. Make it peaceful just like Martian did in the 60s. It is time us older folks show the younger ones how it is done.
I'm calling too! But completely agree, here in god awful Tennessee we have Marsha Blackburn and Bill Hagerty (UGH) but I WILL call! I also have gotten on a first-name basis with my rep's office in DC, Steve Cohen, and they've been really good, even calling me back with more information about whatever's been happening. I want to protest, but for now have to wait until something happens in Memphis. We're doing this together though, from whatever place we are!
Kimela I feel your pain, I am in TX with Cornyn & Cruz - BLECH - I call them every single week and sometimes 2-3X a week but will be calling again today about Muskrat.
I can go ahead and contact Barraso, Loomis and Hageman but it's certainly not like they're going to care. Any state who would oust Liz Cheney over attempting to save Democracy is way too far down the rabbit hole.
Stop and think about it! If you were in office who would you be more afraid of? The man with money or the millions calling and complaining. My bet is on WE THE PEOPLE
I have Grassley and Ernst. Grassley is senile and rabidly behind Trump. We already saw how easily Ernst folded. I still write but get back form letters full of bs thanking me for being a faithful follower and asking for donations. Hell will freeze before I give either of them a penny.
When I read Ron's "Today in Politics" and he mentions a specific Senator, I reach out to them and either thank them for letting their voice be heard, or I ask why they aren't doing more to stop the destruction of our country. I've probably emailed 5 Senators outside of my state. Not many but at least I feel like I'm doing something to help.
Nor is it for me but call not just one time but several times a day. Flood their phones with messages that we have had enough WE THE PEOPLE IS WHAT MY CONSTITUTION SAYS what about yours?
March on your state capital. Let's fight with peace love for one another. February 5 on the 5th of every month let's keep marching until we tear down the strong holds.
Thank you I’m Disabled and so is My Husband who’s a 100% disabled Veteran, But he can walk and Push me in a Wheelchair. I will be there, do you have a Certain meeting place in mind?
I call regularly And peiole I call not just my own Senators Murohy Blumenthal Congressman Hines U camm Thune Other GOP told aides Tell zur boss I cant vote fir the challenger in 2026 but u sure can volunteer and contribute Have a nice day
Every Meidas Mighty who writes here should also write to them (email), in your own words. Your words are powerful, so take your time and choose them carefully. It is also a record.
I wrote a message on Sen. Rick Scott's site last night, expressing my outrage over Musk's taking over Treasury. I told him history will be watching, along with us voters. We need to let them know our strong opposition. If we don't speak loudly now, they'll think we're fine with whatever they do or we're not paying attention.
I tried calling my 2 Democratic Senators from Michigan today and both of their recordings were barely audible. Somethings wrong with the connection to them. It's all broken up. Has Musk found a way to disrupt the cell connection???
Hi Sylvia-me again. I just found out the mailbox of the Senators I called is full and they are "experiencing an extremely high volume of calls which is probably why I had the bad connection. Wanted to let you know. So happy everyone is calling!
You call congress when it opens and politely ask them what the fuck is going on. Just like that. You put them on the spot about the COUP happening!

We are opposite ends of the spectrum. I am 73 and in Wisconsin. But you are right and I will call and at least bother him.
You have to be a thorn in their sides and be ok doing so. America is losing in this world. We are a third world country. Other countries are decades ahead of the game. We have to fight the fascism and oppression.
Thank you and your wisdom is beyond many of your peers. My parents were both in the Army in WWII, thus I realize the threat.
Check out the website 5 Calls if you need help getting the numbers, background on the issues or talking points https://5calls.org/issue/elon-musk-opm-gsa-takeover/
I use Resistbot….easiest way I have ever found!
I use Resist to and the calls CWCW suggests. 5 Calls looks great, too! Could be on the phone all day! Thank you for the information.
Yes, I have resistbot as well. Not really sure how to use it
I just used them to call my 2 senators and my rep. It was super easy and I was able to get a "human" in 2 out of the 3 calls. I called their DC offices. I encourage everyone to do this. 5 Calls made it a bit easier with a "suggested" script.
Is this on resistbot? I just downloaded it.
thank you. super helpful
Thank you Lizbeth ! Happy Monday with every tidbit of quiet pleasure you can grab and luxuriate with !! 🎶💕
I'm 71 with cancer we are in control Catherine. Let them know I'm in California and in a wheelchair. I may not be able to march but I can roll. Call your family friends and neighbor's tell them what they can do. Call everyday 100 times if you have to. This is our time to make our nation great not some butthead.
My understanding is that there will be a rally in all 50 states at the capitals at the same time if that helps anyone.
That is right but don't make it a march just once make it once a month push his trash back on him. Make it peaceful just like Martian did in the 60s. It is time us older folks show the younger ones how it is done.
When is that rally??? What are the days and times???
Mainstream media is not reporting the protests......
MTN needs to be on the streets ASAP and start recordiing these actions.......gotta do this fast.
Cell phone video must be everywhere!!! Put it on MTN now.
This is where the coalition of pro-democracy sites needs to be working together..........
The time of waffling has long passed.
I have not heard this.
Well you have now! Let's not let him destroy our country any longer stand up and be heard.
Thank you. I go to HCR first thing every morning to try and keep my sanity for the day. I am so grateful for her messages.
She is really helping me to understand everything that is happening and also helps keep me sane! What a treasure!
Neither have I, but how do I find this out?
It's not letting me share the poster but it's Weds the 5th at your state capital at noon. It's called the 50 protests 50 States 1 Day
Thank you.
You don't know anything 45. I stumbled on it by accident but got fired up about it and I'm more fired up this morning
Google 50501. This is happening in all 50 states capitals. If you can’t be there, there are things you CAN do!

Same here 😪😡 Tennessee 🤮🤮🤬

You better believe it! Even though I'm a democrat Liz can't be ignored. She's a REAL U.S. CITIZEN! I love her. Too bad SHE wasn't running for prez!
I have Grassley and Ernst. Grassley is senile and rabidly behind Trump. We already saw how easily Ernst folded. I still write but get back form letters full of bs thanking me for being a faithful follower and asking for donations. Hell will freeze before I give either of them a penny.
You need to Tell him if he wants to stay in Office He better do something or you will Rally People against him.
Start calling! No one said it would be easy
I return to sender every single one. I don't bother opening them after the 1st 3 or 4 times of seeing it's just BS.
You can call other senators not just your states there is a phone number for each senator online
When I read Ron's "Today in Politics" and he mentions a specific Senator, I reach out to them and either thank them for letting their voice be heard, or I ask why they aren't doing more to stop the destruction of our country. I've probably emailed 5 Senators outside of my state. Not many but at least I feel like I'm doing something to help.
ALL of my representatives and senators are RW extremists assholes.....they are ALL LOVING this shit!!!
Please Believe that your Threats Matter tell them that you are going to Rally people against them to Remove them from Office if they Ignore our Laws
I'm in the same boat in Missouri...Josh Hawley and Eric Schmitt
Oh, yes...Ron Johnson is a horrible human being. I'll never forget him saying on TV "I don't like feeding other people's kids." :-(
Nor is it for me but call not just one time but several times a day. Flood their phones with messages that we have had enough WE THE PEOPLE IS WHAT MY CONSTITUTION SAYS what about yours?
Call empowered with the truth and a demand for justice for you and your family and friends. You are an American citizen who deserves respect.
I live in Alabama and they definitely don’t care😭 Very few blue hats here and I’m terrified.
Hi Wisconsin! Isn’t Ron Johnson hard to deal with?? 🧀
Showing up is the way!
March on your state capital. Let's fight with peace love for one another. February 5 on the 5th of every month let's keep marching until we tear down the strong holds.
Thank you I’m Disabled and so is My Husband who’s a 100% disabled Veteran, But he can walk and Push me in a Wheelchair. I will be there, do you have a Certain meeting place in mind?

"Insurrection act"
I’ve got Lindsey Graham, Tim Scott, and Nancy Mace ~ I will be making their life just as difficult as they are making mine 😡
Wow, poor you! Good for you! They are making lives miserable and it will take all of us to nip that shit in the bud. Thank you!
How are you going to do that? Do you have some suggestions others might use that would actually be effective?
Protest. Riot.
Peaceful protests have worked best historically
Like stopping the Vietnam "War", Civil Rights, Women's Rights... not all were peaceful, but they woke up the government and motivated change.
By the time they get back, it’ll be too late. Musk and his prepubescents will have all the data copied by then.
Between the Treasury heist and USAID being shut down, a Senator call won’t help.
Great idea! I've been emailing them each week, but Musk in our bank accounts deserves many calls!
Call 202-224-3121 and tell your senator to VOTE NO ON RUSS VOUGHT and to stand up and say no to Elon!!!
Every Meidas Mighty who writes here should also write to them (email), in your own words. Your words are powerful, so take your time and choose them carefully. It is also a record.
Same as calling!! 202-224-3121 is all the senators number. Call and tell your senator to VOTE NO ON RUSS VOUGHT!!
I hear they've stopped taking calls.
I wrote a message on Sen. Rick Scott's site last night, expressing my outrage over Musk's taking over Treasury. I told him history will be watching, along with us voters. We need to let them know our strong opposition. If we don't speak loudly now, they'll think we're fine with whatever they do or we're not paying attention.
Use resist bot to send him a hand-delivered note or email
It was the voters who put this traitor back in the White House although Musk rigged the election!! Where did over 11M ballots go!!!!!
I’d do that for sure if I knew what resist bot was!
I tried calling my 2 Democratic Senators from Michigan today and both of their recordings were barely audible. Somethings wrong with the connection to them. It's all broken up. Has Musk found a way to disrupt the cell connection???
Many of us have had that experience.
Hi Sylvia-me again. I just found out the mailbox of the Senators I called is full and they are "experiencing an extremely high volume of calls which is probably why I had the bad connection. Wanted to let you know. So happy everyone is calling!
I've never considered myself a conspiracy theorist but I'd like to know what the hells going on with that? Hope it clears up promptly.
