Absolutely stunning and very concerning. Why is no one stopping this*?????
*This 100% happened, because I read three news articles about it. Iβm too tired to search for them, so feel free to vet this yourself.
None of us can be sure what will βwork.β You try multiple things and find your way in. Read some histories of the Civil Rights Movement by those who participated. They were never βsureβ of what would work. Some campaigns fizzled out. But persistence, creativity, determination, and focus were key.

The most surreal and maddening feature of the campaign was that everyone agreed that high prices were the main issue but the guy explicitly, consistently running on a platform of raising everyoneβs prices won voters most concerned about high prices.
We hammered this time and time again and yet.
THE ASK This week, between Monday and the vote on Vought, we're asking people from all over the country to plan a visit to Senate State Offices to demand Democrats fight and to hold Republicans accountable for their complicity. DEMOCRATS MUST USE EVERY PROCEDURAL TOOL TO SHUT DOWN TRUMP'S AGENDA Yes, we need Democrats to vote no on Vought's nomination, but no is not enough. Democrats have the power to grind Senate business to a halt and force Republicans to feel the political cost of backing Trump's extremist agenda. Here's how: 1. Deny a Quorum: If Republicans don't have 51 votes in the chamber, Democrats can walk out and shut down Senate business entirely. 2. Block Unanimous Consent: Object to every procedural shortcut, forcing Republicans to take the longest possible route for every step of the confirmation process. 3. Max Out Debate Time: Use all 30 hours of debate on Vought to expose Project 2025, Musk's Treasury takeover, and the funding freeze. 4. Delay and Disrupt: Force roll-call votes, quorum calls, and procedural delays to slow everything down. 5. Blanket Opposition: Democrats cannot continue to vote for Trump's other nominees, helping to install more MAGA loyalists into powerful positions in the federal government while this power grab continues. No Business as Usual: This is a constitutional crisis. Democrats must abandon the old rules and fight with everything they have. Bottom line: Senate Democrats must block, delay, and obstruct every step of this process-no cooperation, no easy votes, no fast-tracking Trump's takeover. To learn more about how Senate Democrats can shut down Trump's agenda with procedural hardball, check out our explainer here.
Indivisible is urging people to visit their senators' local offices between now and Thursday to demand that they use every toolβincluding denying a quorum and blocking unanimous consentβto fight the confirmation of Project 2025 architect Russell Vought for head of OMB docs.google.com/document/d/1...

It feels to me like there are too many rules about people fighting fascism. Like you canβt be on meta, or talk about Israel, but also self care - but not like that. Can we just be on the side thatβs not driving the county off a cliff?
