They will have earned a bipartisan voice. And being no longer steered by corporate and billionaire donors thanks to the campaign finance reforms in #ForThePeopleAct2, these CC founders can establish a different kind of conservatism > honorable without hate and division.

They can be stars of GOP 2.0

As #ConstitutionalConservatives they can demand that same change of mindset of their GOP reps. Their voices carry more weight than ours among reps who've heard only blind support from them before.

They can be the last straws that inspire defectors to become #POPstars, legendary even in the minority

We’re equal victims across the boards. And by being single-issue #PolarOppositePatriots we can prove that our patriotism can be stronger than the differences between us

Suggest that they should rebrand as #ConstitutionalConservatives, differentiating from today's GOP on principles they grew up with

A major strategy within the #TrumpMuskMillerProject2025Cabal is to be outrageous and cruel with a #ProSTRIFE agenda that inflicts needless economic and physical distress.

They force us to fight, going nose to nose as MAGA tries to defend the indefensible.

But instead let's go wallet to wallet.

As unnatural as it might feel, we must put our philosophical differences on the back burner and recognize disgruntled Republicans as #PolarOppositePatriots.

This is, after all, a 99% v 1% battle. They’ll see that taking billionaire money out of politics too via #ForThePeopleAct2 will address this.

Let's spread this dissatisfaction, a 17% drop in Trump's approval, to his enablers. Dozens of House Repubs need to know that their careers are doomed by Don's #OverreachRampage.

There is only way to remain in Congress past Jan 2027:

They must declare as independent, caucusing with Dems.

Thanks @lincolnproject.us for sharing the good news. There's momentum here that could help end the madness ahead of schedule, leaving us a far shallower hole to dig ourselves out of ultimately.

Please follow this thread for phraseology and signage ideas to deploy next Saturday, #Oct18, #NoKingsDay2

Let that sink in a moment. Feels like the best in us, doesn’t it?

Then please make this phraseology part of our future alliance.

They can #FlipTheHouseFall2025AndBeHeroesForever. They can unleash a #BlueHouse that will go all Freddy Krueger on the #ClownCarCabinet.

Impeachments and resignations will fly like confetti at the start of the tickertape parade to celebrate the unwinding of #TrumpProject2025 #RepubloFascism.

They may think they've curbed our speech, but the #WokeRevolt will be heard by the tens of millions on #NoKingsDay 2, #Oct18.

And let's make dozens of House Republicans understand that the Trump #OverreachRampage will make them unelectable. So why not declare as independent, caucusing with Dems?

Johnson is running out of excuses. It's time to just take the gravel out of his hand.

All we need are three #PolarOppositePatriots, three House Republicans to declare as independent and caucusing with Dems.

They can #FlipTheHouseFall2025AndBeHeroesForever then we can impeach the #ClownCarCabinet.

They can
#FlipTheHouseFall2025AndBeHeroesForever not DJT lapdogs. And rather than being likely victims in 2026 for Trump's #OverreachRampage, their careers can be extended.

Perhaps they can rebrand as #ConstitutionalConservatives. That way they can differentiate themselves from the old guard.

And YOU make that option more tantalizing by helping to bring about the first phase of #ProjectCarrot:

Push DNC Chair Martin to vow not to support or fund a Dem against any of these new independents. They'll face no GOP primary, and no tough Dem in the general.

We have to wonder how much shame it will take for House Repubs to finally bail on Trump because every day he makes their reelection less likely.

Rep Pocan, please remind these legislators that they can be celebrated for ending this madness if they declare as independent, caucusing with Dems.

We are so lucky that we have not yet descended into a #VanceThielPresidency.

We have to realize that we're lucky that Trump and his #ClownCarCabinet are too inept to execute the Project 2025 replacement of democracy with #RepublicFascism efficiently.

We need to call this exactly what it is: a #RepubloFascistAgenda meant to hollow out our government. This is the #TrumpMuskMillerProject2025Cabal strategy of inflicting needless economic and physical harm throughout working class America to weaken our resolve.

But the #WokeRevolt will prevail.

And the entire working class should realize that they are without exception victims of the #TrumpProject2025Cabal and their #ProSTRIFE agenda inflicting needless economic and physical hardships on all of us.

We must stand together despite our political differences as #PolarOppositePatriots

This is what I call #OrangePrivilege. It's the assumption that the power you've been given can be wielded without honor or responsibility.

i.e. > you can get away with anything because who's going to stop you?

But it's not surprising that so many have fallen for this Swiss cheese version of Christianity that was crafted by #BillionaireThinkTanks and single-issue evangelicals three decades ago.

Notice the convenient holes where The Golden Rule and "Judge not, lest ye be judged" used to go?

Thank you #TeamTalarico! You don't even have to be a Christian to understand the value and power of the Christian faith honorably deployed for the benefit of us all.

Yes! Please add this phraseology as support of this concept. The honor that should go hand in hand with faith demands the true followers should be #ConsistentChristians.

This demands that you don't turn away from the poor, the sick, or the stranger. Ignoring that duty is the height of hypocrisy.

Yes, we have more friends than we know because former Trump voters are connecting the dots right and left. All their lockstep support ultimately got them less than nothing.

Like us they are merely victims of the #TrumpProject2025 #ProSTRIFE agenda.
