Specifically, how do we pressure 'up' on the spineless Dems in Congress who caved on the gov't shutdown in exchange for promises from people who have never delivered on a promise in their lives?

And a handful of Democrats just caved for effing NOTHING. They're such losers. I despise the Democratic so called leaders. Schumer must go. Jeffries must go. They are literally ruining the party and . America.

Seems like we’ve been yelling into the void since the Dems don’t seem to be listening.

I hope dems from within the party who understand the moment are able to apply pressure to these 8 that caved. Well, except Fetterman he’s a lost cause but the rest of them. They can still change their vote, and they must. Otherwise, you are looking at a total breakdown of the party.

No kings and the last election was huge power and momentum for the opposition. The dems just squandered it. So disappointing

Pete would be just as useless in the Senate as the eight dems who stabbed us in the back.

Yes. As an Independent, I may not vote for Republicans but I don't see what the Dems are offering either. We need fighters. They won't do it. I know people who are going to have to give up their healthcare coverage because the new rates are unaffordable.

Pete, what drove many independents to the polls this time was policy anger.
If the Democrats show they're strong enough to make beneficial and protective change for them, they'll support. But by caving in, those voters will sit out the midterms because no one is effectively fighting to help them.

Democrats aren’t getting a dime from me going forward, generally speaking. I am pissed and done. There are a handful I still have faith and hope in, but none of this general fund bullshit.

It was policy.

Erika Kirk has openly bragged that she is more far-right than Charlie was. She’s led Turning Point USA’s fascist trad wife conference for years and her speeches are filled with the same hateful venom as her husband. Really sick shit to boost this woman’s profile when TPUSA should rot into obscurity.

Yup. I said this earlier today, but it was only a guess. Thanks for confirming it. It is no coincidence that of the 8 who came forward to do this, none of them are running in 2026. But they ran cover for some who are.

They will never release the Epstein files. It doesn't matter what norms or procedures or rules are in place. It will never happen officially.
The only way it happens is for another party to disclose them. But that opens up the claims for AI/fake videos, etc. It's over.
