Former Austinite, now hunkered down on the eastern side of the Willamette Valley, #oregon. Faves are #dogs, #audiobooks, #crochet, #music, #politics. Retired, and so old I remember the good old days of being terrified by Ronald Reagan becoming president.

Heard about this one today. I know youโre both holding town halls, but wonder if those couldnโt wait until the Musk/Trump crime cartel and coup has been stopped.

Errrr, not feeling it, what with the Musk/Trump crime cartel and coup raging. Wish you folks on the hill were as alarmed as us citizens are.

The scale & impact of our constitutional crisis is so severe that you & your colleagues should be abusing parliamentary procedure to hold the floor in the House & the Senate until the coup ends. Get angry, get loud, break some rules. Repubs do it all the time, make them cry
