If only this would actually CHANGE THE OUTCOME

He has stated that he is doing this to give the American people a chance to still use their voices. He is doing this because the house tried to make a decision while we all slept.

Even if we don’t win, this act was nothing short of noble. He and the dems seem to be the only ones that actually care about people’s rights right now

Thank you for your positive attitude. Especially when the doom and gloom squad are loud and wrong.

Yes, you are making a difference by sharing your upbeat voice.

Cheers. Linda

The Republicans like to do shit in the middle of the night. They are greedy cruel fucks!

According to the data analysis by the Election Truth Alliance, it's possible that none of this should be happening. They've found anomalies that are statistically improbable (almost actually impossible) to have occurred naturally with regular historical voting patterns [which indicates a high likelihood of interference in the data].

Ah, such as Democratic potions of states having zero votes for Kamala in the election results?

I heard a thing or two about that👀

Those are small fries in comparison to what the ETA is showing. They have a Substack. Go look at their charts. And then watch the interviews that they've been on because they explain the data they're finding and what it eludes to.

So when do we give up?

He was holding the line to allow us time to see what they were doing in the middle of the night. They originally didn't have the votes and started making backroom deals. We still don't know what they were wheeling and dealing behind closed doors.

It worked with Murkowski in the Senate, did she really, really think they wouldn't do the same in the House? MAGA Moses Mike sold his soul quite some time ago. And for the record, Murkowski knew better, it's what MAGAts do. Yeah girl, you're a MAGAt. History has you marked down.

Buying votes?

Essentially. Promises that their states wont be affected by certain things or potentially gaining financial advantage for supporting the bill

Lisa Murkoswki is an example sadly

You’re so right. Sadly, the only voice many Republicans listen to right now is Trump and MAGA and not a majority of the American people. They couldn’t care less about us.

Agreed. Even if the dems feel defeated in a red house and senate, I admire how hard they have fought this bill. They are the ONLY reminder of what this nation was supposed to represent which is WE THE PEOPLE.

Please remember he also was one of the 128 Dems voting NOT to impeach. Only 79 Dems said yes and he wasn’t one of them. There is no reason for it. Even if it wasn’t going to go anywhere why the freak would u vote WITH Trump?

A gargantuan effort from Hakeem Jeffries!

Thank you Hakeem for speaking up for the American people against the sociopathic Republican ‘Big Ugly Bill‘. This BS Bill is a criminal Bill meant to steal from poor and give to rich. This is a disgrace and anyone who votes for it is not an American but complicit with the mob boss.

I think Republican Senate and House members should be removed from office for their sabotage of America. Who's with me?

If you did NOT vote for Kamala Harris you are fully responsible for everything that Trump MAGA GOP dictatorial regime is doing!

I get so infuriated at Trump voters who have buyer’s remorse after they vote. Like, we told you and you didn’t listen, and now you have no one to blame but yourself.

That's why I wear this "Don't blame me, I voted for her" t-shirt everywhere I go 👇

I can't wrap my head around how people can be so afraid of one man that it makes them stab their constituents in the back. They know these cuts are going to be devastating to millions of people but they don't care because they are not directly affected. I honestly don't know how they sleep at night. They're a bunch of cowards who deserve to lose their jobs. Most of them should be retired anyway.

Yes, why are they SO AFRAID of demented Chump? Is he a Russian asset with backup? Was he part of what happened to the Iowa Democrats who were shot & murdered? We'll never know since the gunman killed himself.

Cathy Delia's avatar

He is definitely a Russian asset. No doubt about that one. The demented felon also has blood on his hands regarding the Congress members being shot and killed in Minnesota. I'm pretty sure the gunman was MAGA.

I’ve wondered the same thing. How can they be so afraid of an orange rapist?

Well, let's see. There's cyberthreats from Russia, even Israel, for corporate entities who don't "behave." And the threats to individual politicians are too numerous to name.

I agree wholeheartedly with you Cathy. I just don’t get it. And they all have higher education and supposed to smart people. I believe a lot of it has to do with having kompromat against many of them. 🤔

Well, Hakeem Jeffries is trying to save the people. But unfortunately because the Democrats do not have control of the House nor the Senate we are all royally fucked. Because these spineless idiotic ass licking assholes will eventually all cave and say yes. Happy mother fucking "independence" day everyone! 😠😤😡

You’ll have to excuse my negative attitude, but I truly believe all this is doing is delaying the vote. Where were all these Democrats in January when we all knew this was going to happen 🤷🏻‍♀️

I love that they are engaging now, but it’s too little, too late in my opinion. Heartbreaking 💔

Don’t get me wrong….. there’s still plenty of fight left in me and I won’t stop. I’m just discouraged, knowing that this is just a delay tactic, and the Republicans are very unlikely to change their votes.
