It’s nice to see the senate opposition functioning.

Edit: 18 hours of holding the senate floor, giving voice to the american people. Lots of tears as american suffering is read out loud for the congressional record. Testiment from Americans across the country. This is the voice of the people. Please click the link, share and watch. The media needs to know we care about the opposition more than we care about trump rambling on a plane about fort knox.

    There’s 10-20 other Dem senators there helping him by taking questions, giving speeches and allowing him to get bathroom breaks.

    And they’re doing the bare minimum. They should’ve been on rotational shifts from one week in, and this especially should’ve been going on when they signed away all their power with the budget approvals a few weeks ago.

    I promise I am not attacking you personally, let’s just not mistake this as the Democratic party fighting, this is one man fighting an uphill battle with the bare level of help.

      He’s litterally calling to hit the streets and fight? What exactly do you want the senate minority to do? Especially after the minority leader sold them down the river.

        Why are they asking us to risk getting thrown in an ice internment camp when they are the ones who standing by in DC abiding by legalities that no longer exist?

          I’ve got some extra firearms if you need one to defend yourself. Im pretty sure ice isn’t gonna come arrest me and the retired old ladies protesting in front of the capital, but it would make good news for the cause. Idk i refuse to live in fear. I refuse to live like a impotent fool. Go do something besides discourage people from being productive.
