They’re definitely letting the government shut down. Republicans couldn’t care less.

No votes.
Where is the unified Democrat strategy??? @democrats.org the silence from the so-called leaders is deafening
I have
Tough talk in August will turn to capitulation in September. They'll shut down the gov't for one day, call it a "victory", then give Trump everything he wants. We've seen it before.
Didn't the DEM leadership vote to pass Drumf's last budget bill, with absolutely no asks. I'm not buying the tough DEM act, they cave and are completely useless. REP don't even view them as worthy of negotiation, and now I understand why. We need a viable 3rd party
Oh, Liz is fired-up. "By golly!" Gotta love Elizabeth Warren.
Heathcare should be available for every American
ARREST TRUMP NOW ! ARREST THE SUPREME COURT NOW! ARREST THE ENTIRE REPUBLICAN PARTY IN THE HOUSE & SENATE NOW!! THEY HAVE PROVEN BEYOND ANY DOUBT TO BE TREASONOIUS TO THE CONSTITUTION & THE PEOPLE!! THIS IS WHAT MUST BE DONE NOW ! CALL YOUR REP, TELL THEM IT'S TIME TO GET THE MILITARY INVOLVED !!
This is exactly the only way to stop the downfall of America. And then start taking away all their wealth...including the billionaires who enable this fascist fuck...like Musk and Zuckerberg, Cook, Murdoch etc.
@warren.senate.gov stick to this. burn this fucking country down. THEY'RE the ones in power, THEY have the votes. do EVERYTHING to hold their nuts over an open fire. or shut all this shit down just like they threaten to do anyways. if this nation must suffer for people to get a clue, SO BE IT.
Das ist ein bisschen viel auf einmal, oder? Heathcare für alle, aber auch die Maskenpolizei loswerden, den gestohlenen Geldhahn zudrehen und die Tarife senken. Wie soll das alles zusammenpassen?
We need this we need more more more of this ..every day if needed @governor.ca.gov @kamalaharris.com @douglasemhoff.bsky.social @raskin.house.gov @aoc.bsky.social @tedlieu.bsky.social @whitehouse.senate.gov @crockett.house.gov @padilla.senate.gov @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social @govpritzker.illinois.
EXCEPT that Johnson usually avoids the difficult work. He may send Congress home for the Christmas holiday before Oct. 1, right?
Cue all of the progressives complaining about Warren potentially voting with Republicans to keep the govt open in 3, 2, 1…
All she had to do was go after Biden and she would have won 2020, but no she wanted VP.
I say shut it down
It’s not a good move politically. Dems will be blamed for the shutdown and that means a lot of people will stop getting vital services.
Oh no! I don’t give a rats hiney about what looks good politically! Shut it all down!!! The entire country halts for as long as it takes to restore democracy and get the three branches to separate again. This is a five alarm fire and if we don’t put it out asap, we’re all fucked.
It’s cute that you think shutting the govt down will accomplish all of that. It absolutely won’t.
wrong
If you say so. 🤷♂️
I accept your apology
That’s what you think that was?
We're way beyond epistemology, baby
Exactly what point are you trying to make? Just come out and say it instead of dropping these vague replies.
You're wrong that a shutdown would automatically be a bad move and that only Dems would get blame. But if Dems don't message in advance about why it's necessary, they'll force themselves to surrender, which… will be a bad move. Maga understands you build the political reality you want
But arguing this is pointless, since people will believe what they want to believe, and that too will become self-reinforcement, making itself true. In short—I accept your apology
Restore health care, yes, but also get the masked goons off the street, the 🟠💩needs to return the money he's stolen, and do something about the silly tariffs
No budget, ICE can't spend money.
Just that? How about reversing the tax cuts for the rich and actually tax them? Then all that was cut can be paid for.
Getting rid of the ICE Gestapo
That too idd.
What about all the other bad things they do.
Plus, Dems should be clear they won’t hold with ppl who don’t follow the law by respecting the law by following the rules judges impose.
It was a wonderful time!
@warren.senate.gov can’t even get alt text on her own Bluesky account for Disabled People. I have no confidence she can help anyone when she doesn’t even have her own staff follow the ADA on her own government account.
Perhaps you should volunteer to help.
Hi @everythingisjake.bsky.social, thank you for your feedback about your belief that disabled people don’t deserve basic human rights until we volunteer to give labor to the government. I appreciate you volunteering as an example of your bigotry and hatred of disabled people.
It might surprise you bigoted abliest @everythingisjake.bsky.social, that human beings don’t need to volunteer for basic human rights protected under the law, even when we are as you might call us “useless eaters” with your Nazi beliefs that disabled people must work to earn our human rights.
You have no idea my views are. If you are too busy to volunteer, that's cool.
I just checked out your views. They're the views of a quisling bootlicker who want Democrats to be slightly less bigoted fascists than the Republicans. Fuck you and everything you stand for, domestic enemy.
Does or does not Ms warren represent all people in ger state? Is she trying to represent all people in the US? Do they include those who typically need alt text that basic social engagement teams provide? Does she have a social engagement team? My god your bar for basic internet behavior is low.
Thank you! I also like to point out that Alt text is a 26 year old standard for disabled people to access online content. It’s over a quarter of a century old. It’s in no way new.
Seated government officials don’t make “mistakes” when their social media staff can’t follow 26 year old standards enforced by law.
Thank you for helping my understand this.
What the hell is wrong with you? You should be ashamed of yourself. Either this was a joke in the worst taste, or you actually just said that a disabled person should take responsibility for accommodations for disabled people; either way, this is monstrously unsympathetic.
Yes... I've heard! I had no idea that ALT Text was such an important thing and a part of the ADA framework - and has been for a long time. My unsympathetic response was not out of cruelty, but ignorance. My apologies to those I have offended.
There’s no by gollies in hardball
I hope Chuck knows the plan this time since he jumped right on the Trump Train last time
Yes! Please, Dems! Hold strong.
Hold their feet to the fire for Dem votes. Literally. #persist #EpsteinDidntKillHimself #resist
She is great.
Dear Democrats, Play hardball everywhere. Regards Millions of Americans who value democracy
Yeah. F restoring Medicare cuts. Let’s propose an entirely new system. I want a country where an ER visit won’t put me in bankruptcy. F restoring their cuts. Let’s think way bigger.
Stop yacking and start acting!
Shutting down the government would do two things 1.stop a whole bunch of horrible shit from happening 2.free up millions of potential protesters
"Oh gee golly gosh! Y'all better stop those human rights violations and war crimes, or we will make you spend a whole week getting each of our soft-belly votes one-by-one!"
Lol yes the Republicans will need a few democrats to vote for the bill, but I guarantee Warren or any outlet "progressive" will not be who they target. Plenty of centrist dems to peel off when needed
They can count on Fetterman and Schumer
Congressional and Senate Dems make threats all the timel (remember Chuck wrote a 'very strong letter'); I have yet to see them follow through in these fascists times. 😔
And a lot more than that.
They need to take away the new ICE funding too
You’ll fold. No one in Congress has a spine.
Defund ICE!
Fuck that, shut the fucking government down, no more fucking money to support a Fascist Dictator.
Oh yer gonna barter w the arsonist? Jfc, federal dems don't seem to understand what's gg on.
Lol. We're past the point where they're letting any of that stop them.
I'm not a billionaire but that seems like a better investment than grass
If you want the trust of the American people back then by golly forgive me if im withholding it until September.
They have no intention of passing a budget.
And @schiff.senate.gov will be sure to vote with them.
BY GOLLY gotta use that more
I absolutely love Senator Warren!
I respect the inclination to fight AND I still don’t forget how she shivved Bernie in the back, called him a misogynist and stayed in the race after Buttigieg and Klobuchar dropped out.
The idea that ANY Democrat might support Trump and the Republicans in September should be unthinkable. If the US was a proper democracy the question now being asked would be how many "good" Republicans might break ranks. And its not just about healthcare. The push to autocracy must be reversed.
This sounds exactly like the duopoly in 'Australia'. We made the republic style extinct in May. Hoping to do the same with the democrat style next election. They just endlessly back each other
Not sure the “by golly” phrase catches the youth vote.
Shut it down.
Yep. Way past time to show the billionaires, nazis and drug addled, deranged, socially bankrupt tech broligarchs the door.
Don't worry, some Dems will bow down and vote with the GOP without getting anything, because they think if they play nice, it will be good for them down the road. That's one thing the GOP has over the Dems. Unity. Dems can't unite for the greater good to win & then address the other problems.
Senator Warren tell them if they want your vote they need to impeach the Asshole.
Hey @schumer.senate.gov you can resign now. @warren.senate.gov is meeting the moment better than you are. QUIT NOW. The corpse of Harry Reid could do a better job at leader than what you're doing.
Don't support any legislation the regime tries to pass if you are the resistance otherwise you are a collaborator. The only excuse is if you get universal Healthcare and the Gestapo disbanded
The answer should be no!!
Any Democrat who votes for this bill needs to go. They are part of the problem, not the solution.
@warren.senate.gov there's isn't a government anymore to keep open. don't vote to do so. time for the scorched earth approach to rebuild democracy.
Thinking small. How about they get rid of ICE.
Yeah, that would free up *checks notes* 75 Billion dollars.
...& when the Rs budget doesn't pass, they will blame the Democrats...
#Project2026 A program to leverage Blue State majorities to reclaim the House & Senate in 2026. . Counter gerrymandering . Blue State biz direct with countries . Restrict business with Red States . Boycott travel to Red States . Tax advantages to move Blue . Brain Drain TO Blue States
#Project2026 Blue states are economically and politically powerful enough to dominate Red States and Republican sycophants. Use tax advantage magnets to suck the economies of Red States dry !!
Hey Red States! Want help to rebuild because FEMA won’t? Vote Blue and we’ll rebuild for you. If you want that money, come and get it by supporting #Project2026. Forget Federal tax dollars… Blue states will buy your votes directly… Play our way and win, or our economy’s will crush you!
No fucking dem votes for ANYTHING they want, period.
Not a SINGLE Democrat better vote to support ANYTHING maga Republicans try to push through...not a SINGLE ONE!
There isn't anything the GOP would put forth to vote on to help the majority of us, so what the f is the 🐍 talking about.
DAMMIT WARREN, STOP CAVING IN!
‘By golly’ . Warren a servant of Wall Street acting like a 1950’s populist. Who feeds them their corny faux lines of protest?
Cut the ICE/DOD budget too!!
Our premiums for 2026 will be $30,000 for two age 60 75% increase
Stop working with these Nazis and shut it all down. Call their bluff. No negotiating. No budget approval under any circumstances. It’s not just healthcare, it’s democracy. Shut it the F down!!!!!
Shut it all down!!!!!
@warren.senate.gov And get the military off of American streets.
Chuck Schumer, I mean Cuck Boomer, will make sure MAGA has the 8 dem votes they need to pass that budget and not shut down government Main stream Democratic leadership is made up of a bunch of ineffective, inept, choads
Cuck Boomer 🤭💀
sorry but that's not asking for nearly enough
Shut it down. They don’t give anything shut it down and make sure you’re out there blaming this on the GOP and exactly why.
Vote every last conservative out - at every level, city, county and state!
Never trust a MAGA REPUBLICAN. No deals! They have no honor, and cruelty is their pledge.
@warren.senate.gov tip: DO NOT VOTE FOR ANYTHING REPUBLICANS PUT FORWARD. NOTHING! LET THEM SINK IN THEIR OWN SHIT. That’s what we want.
EXACTLY!
As long as Trump can not spend anything he wants what does it matter what you vote for?
Shut the government down. Restore healthcare, ok. How about end the fascist takeover of the country? Any vote to fund this government is collaboration with fascists
NO! No support for anything the rethuglicans want! They’ll keep trying to pass more of their authoritarian agenda. So just NO! Shut it all down and the red states will suffer the most.
For the EPSTEINTH time! Loudly and repeatedly every single day. Do not let Epsteins' name fall out of the amnesia and distraction cycle. Epstein Epstein Epstein Epstein Epstein Epstein Epstein
We have federal troops in cities and you deploy ‘golly?’ Yea…that’s tellin’ ‘em.
Why is she laying the predicate now, publicly??? DO NOT NEGOTIATE IN THE MEDIA. Holy crap. This is so dumb.
Bless. You know they won’t. Dems, stop acting like this is 1992 and Rs are maybe, possibly going to have a conscience. 2025 Rs are kill or be killed. Stop expecting them to do anything to help anyone.
Exactly!! They will LIE! Just like their serpent ‘leader’.🐍☠️ They’ll *promise* and then rescind. That’s how they do it. The serpent denied knowing about P-25, they promised not to touch Medicaid, Medicare, and SS… but they will.😡
Shut the whole government down until Dems restore some of the insanity MAGA has unleashed
Why keep a corrupt gov’t afloat? If everything they’ve passed leads to a collapse, why not let their actions create the expected result? Why aid in their rescue when you know they’ll still claim that the near-disaster was the Dems fault?
Any dem that votes with the republicans needs to go
Apparently she doesn't realize that Republicans control both chambers of Congress. And budget bills only need a simple majority from what I recall. So they literally could get this done without any Democratic votes.
