Would anyone be upset if you saw some fist fights break out on the House floor? No, it wouldn't solve the problems...but it would Goddamn sure send a clear message to the citizens of this country how pissed off our leadership is...and how tired of the bullshit run-around they're getting.
Gotta fight escalation with escalation sometimes. And let's be real. They fucking had it coming.
I would mind. We are better than that.
Right they’re so mad they’re going to *checks notes* Rubber stamp all Trumps nominees, vote yes on his mass deportations, pass his budget while getting absolutely nothing in return throwing away our only leverage over trump. Dems are either the dumbest strategists ever or willing trump accomplices
The Repugnants, en masse, staying silent and refusing debate! Deliberate abuse of their duty in the House!
I would love to see them bring some Taiwan Parliament fire... www.youtube.com/shorts/OTPBM...
Hell, I would be happy to see some Dems throw a few shoes! I have some I am willing to donate to the cause!
When’s Schummer gonna toss his loafer at the GOP 😂
Bwahahaha
Congressional Fight Club would actually be less crazy than the current crazy.
Pretty sure MTG is carrying & I would not put it past her to escalate into a whole new level “and the. potus backed her up & let the shooting slide” 😱😬☠️
*and then
She is definitely packing heat but you know some of those scardy little timid Democrats got guns. I’m not sure they know to take the safety off but I bet they are packing.
Mebbe so but are we ready for congressional shootouts? 😬🫨
🤷🏻♀️Something has to happen.
It’s never a dull moment when a Nazi is punched
Certainly wouldn't be the first time.
There is going to be violence sooner or later, there is going to be blood. The question is when and how?
I’d be happy to watch Cory Booker kick Markwayne Mullen’s ass.
Fuck yeah
I’ll buy a front row seat.
I don't know, his wrists might be tired after signing off on all those weapons to Israel.
I was gonna add a link because I remember this happened in Taiwan recently. But daayam! Which clip?!?! Get it!
But can we be sure that @OccupyDemocrats.bsky.social are going to get appropriately angry enough to show their anger in more violent ways- not their usual way of expressing their frustration by “when they go low we go high”
at least it would be something
I don't want unproductive (& embarrassing) fist fights by Congressional septuagenarians. We aren't South Korea or Turkey... yet. What I *want* is more Bookers, Greens, Raskins, Crocketts and AOCs using their voice & power to command the stage, drive the debate, and start Good Trouble.
... and SANDERS' as well. I'm far from being a Bernie Bro, but he is leading more than... Schumer ...other Senators
I want to see McConnell get knocked out, as well as MGT and the speaker. Oh I almost forgot Jim Jordan and Sen Kennedy.
Thing is they aren’t pissed. They are mildly inconvenienced. Primary them and we might see pissed.,
Sadly, I think the most likely fistfight will be between Josh Hawley and whichever member of Congress is angriest about his insider trading bill. I’m thinking Tuberville but MTG wouldn’t surprise me, and either of them would kick his ass.
I’d like to see some passion and life out of the damn Democrats. Bunch of f*cking pearl-clutching wimps.
Instead of Purge Day we need Waffle House Day on the House floor
Nobody stood with Al when the goons came calling.
I don’t how they can stand to be in the room with these nuts. Now they won’t participate in debates. Infantile but dangerous.
Not a bit. Kind of surprised it hasn’t already happened.
Nope
My money is on Jasmine Crockett
💯%
I’ll take Jasmine and AOC even money against any of those spineless eunuchs in the GOP
I'd love to see Marge get bitch slapped hard.
Then Bobo too.
As long as they live stream it 🍿
I wish it would happen.
yes!
Might be hard to get Republicans out from under the tables they are hiding under.
Elbows up!
Might solve a few things. A lot of these folks have never been punched in the mouth, and it shows.
The Brits do it. Looks like good television.
GET RAUNCHY!
I think it should be a daily routine. Before the opening of each day's session...full scale melee!
I wish our leadership were actually pissed off, or a fraction concerned as the rest of us are. A few are, but they are not united.
I would love to see it. And the republicans would deserve all they get.
Word.
Well, they should make sure that the Republicans they attack don't have canes... (See Preston Brooks v. Charles Sumner)...
Punch a corporate Dem!
Bizarre fact: the front benches of the British House of Commons are deliberately spaced so many feet apart to prevent members attacking each other with swords. I think we should rescind that law and let the best person win. 😉
I guess it would depend on how the fights went. I can see MTG attacking someone half her size and that would make me furious, though rejoicing to my core if they decked her.
every time i see marjorie taylor sporkfoot, I want to smack her in the face with a shovel
The visual made my day... 🤣
There is precedent: history.house.gov/Historical-H...
We don’t need more crazy. We have enough of the lunatic president and his minions using mafia like tactics on who ever disagrees with them.
No assaults, please. While it would be epic to watch like a Rocky movie takedown, it would lead to arrest, censure and expulsion to any Dem involved. We can’t afford to lose those voices and votes.
We need Sumner and Brooks, but the right direction.
It also emphasizes the fact that what is happening ISN’T NORMAL!! Some people are being told not to overreact, things will be okay. Don’t cause a panic over nothing. The lack of leadership is demoralizing and is hurting the resistance.
At least stop voting for their damn appointees!!!! 🤬🤬🤬 What the hell ?
Yep. I keep saying we need more elbows thrown. The congressional gentleman with the cane at the "SOTU" was a good start.
Need to be bashing each other with chairs like it's WWF.
This is dumb. What we need are Congresspeople and Senators in the streets and going to where people are being victimized. That is how need to see their representation of our rage expressed.
I’d rather see that than hear Schumer talk about sending a very stern letter. Heck, maybe one day they could all show up packing heat. I’m not suggesting violence. Just saying, maybe remind the GOP that the right to bear arms is for everyone. The GOP loves armed mobs at the Capitol, right?
That is interesting….
Problem. HEGSETH. HE IS THE GRAND POOBAH.
As I'm busily looking up how to reach the joint chiefs
Fisticuffs is so much better than strongly worded letters.
It’s always a good day to punch a Nazi
Generate funds to pay for REAL issues by making the fights pay-per-view with betting.
Whatever it takes to get our country back, I'm all for it.
I don’t like the idea of fist fights but I would like to see more Democrats with cojones as big as Jasmine Crocket’s and Corey Booker’s!
Maybe some bitch slaps. Can we bring back the MTV cartoon fights?
Schumer wouldn’t fight. His contribution would be more stern letters.
The fact it hasn't yet tells you all you need to know about Dems. I seriously doubt, if the roles were reversed and Democrats were actively shredding the Constitution, dismantling government and siphoning off its wealth, that Republicans would sit calmly and watch.
I would love to see Jasmine Crockett clock MTG.
All day long. Would pay to see that💙
She’d get Crocked out.
🤣
I would never ask representative Crockett to have to chase …to run that far …to waste time on that MTG bitch.. MTG is a poser🖕
As our grandma used to say - Snatch her bald headed!!!!
Pay per view steel cage match for the next voting session. No refs allowed.
It literally feels like they’re in there playing grab ass and laughing and point at each other saying “ok now it’s your turn to lead”. “Ha ha ok, now it’s your turn to lead”. This is a rigged system and it’s discouraging us from participating in it.
If I had 5 minutes alone in a room with “fill-in-the-blank” weak beta GOP male or female-that includes steroid junkie hegseth, they would leave that room on their knees. These patsies don’t scare me one iota. The women are creepier bc they bite & scratch to make up for intellectual weakness. Still..
What I wouldn't give to see someone clock a couple of these aholes.
I want to see something out of the Democrats. Someone needs to punch prissy Mike Johnson in his nose at a minimum. Maybe AOC?
You’d break his glasses and he’d run away for the teacher
Yep!
If she kicked him in the cookies, I’d buy the PPV.
Al Green should wail on MAGA Mike with his cane.
I’d like to see the House look more like the UK Parliament 😆
My money is on Eric Swalwell
Yup.
If they actually represented us that would have already happened. We need to start being more aware of who we are electing. Not just because they are not a Republican.
Personally, I would pay to see Jasmine Crockett beat the living shit out of Marjorie Taylor Greene. $$$
I've said it before, Celebrity Death Match IRL
We should bring out Preston Brooks' cane, right about now, as a standard we should be rallying behind, tbh. 🤷
Brings me back to when Gaetz almost got the crap kicked out of him, sooo close, missed opportunity for that scumbag. 😈👊
A righteous caning, perhaps?
Let’s go!!!!
Leaving the two party system sends a clearer message. bsky.app/profile/nurs...
I’d actually pay cash money to see that.
I’d actually pay cash to punch one of the Neo Nazis if I didn’t get sent to CECOT afterwards.
For sure. Me too.
I would pay good money to see Jasmine Crockett jerk a knot in MTG's ass.
idk what this is but it sounds very gross :[
Not sure this is where the United States of America should go… www.youtube.com/watch?v=fx8q...
magats are traitors to the constitution anyway....
Yeah, I really wouldn’t mind it. (I cover politics and social issues, focusing on fighting fascism and raising awareness about key injustices. Please follow me if interested!)
Lets see it go down since so many gop carry on house floor weapons are allowed of course
I’ll donate money to the first one to throw ands…
It would be entertaining,but it's tough to start a fight with some one who won't even talk to you. The new GOP strategy is to ignore the Dems and just pass everything the 🍊💩🤡 wants without debate in silence. Which would piss me the fuck off if I was on one of those committees.
I have a feeling tho that some of the most faux tough GOPers would get their asses handed to them.
Like “Gym” Jordan…😂😂😂🤡
We used to be a country connecticuthistory.org/roger-griswo...
It would help if the democrats win that battle and run the assault on America out
I'm pretty sure Linda McMahon can spin a venue in the oval office for a Royal Rumble match up. Hulk Hogan and his cronies can coach them for a splendid cage match
And Kid Rock can play something to set the mood.. 😄
Start a hockey game in the house on July 1 in honour of Canada Day.. Someone may get an elbow or high stick.. . It's just all in the game. 😄
I want to see some venom level Parliament action, get pissed and mean it, kick a damned chair over, go Bob Knight FFS!!!!
I wouldn't clutch my pearls if it happened... Frankly, I'm surprised we're not there already, especially when MTG has the floor.
me when she's speaking...
Perfect.
Can't stand her
Normally I refrain from disparaging people for their appearance, but in her case I will do it anyway, the club-footed fool
She is beyond deserving any form of grace. Let it rip is my thinking.
I thought that the first time I saw her...looks and acts like a Neanderthal.
It's just insane how much she resembles one.
H. N. Had bigger brains than us. Look at fetal alcohol syndrome.
Trump is on the fetal alcohol syndrome disorder spectrum.
trump is mostly a narcissistic personality disorder.
Narcissistic personality disorder does not preclude FASD. His symptoms are classic.
I don’t think this is an “if” I think there is a good chance it’s just a “when” Things haven’t even started to become bad yet, wait till shortages kick in, tempers run hot, and we get close to needing a funding bill by the EOFY It’s only just starting to get interesting, in a really sad way
Or rapping
Seems to be a pattern in the South Korean parliament. Why not in the USA. I can just envision Hawley and Cruz receiving a well deserved pounding...actually the entire GOP Senators.
Fun fact- there have been brawls in congress. I recall a beating with a cane in the 1800’s
Every Democrat should beat up a MAGAt
I'd like to see a few Democrats start carrying canes -- and using them.
If any of those opposed to the fascist regime need a goon to watch their back.... I'm available, motivated and prepared to do my part to destroy the Nazi Trumpanzees. My Congressman can attest that I'm capable and crazy enough to help...
Trump would make Capitol Police charge them with terrorism
Our leadership is pissed off? What'd I miss I haven't heard from Jeffries in months Sat on the Capitol steps and not a single meaningful utterance Schumer? HAHAHAHAHAHAH WE are pissed off. They're collecting a check
Like to see any one of them donating their paychecks to charities supporting the folks who are going to be devastated by this REPUBLICAN made disaster. Not gonna happen.
First up, Mike Johnson, kapow!
👍‼️
Certainly wouldn’t be the first time
I think a few slaps with a fish to the face media2.giphy.com/media/jX708W...
Isn’t that parliamentary rules?
I'd like to see some MAGA republicans learn it isn't the MAGA cult they should fear.
Sounds like a recipe for a whole lot of broken hips...
I’m going with AOC beating the living daylights out of the plumber guy posing as a congressman… but that’s just me.
Maybe the veterans can whip some Repubs into shape on June 6th. I'd hold their beers.
I don't think anyone has the cahoonas to do it. If only I was there .....
I’m willing to participate on a day take a friend to work day.
I would not be upset.
They were throwing smoke bombs in the Serbian parliament. Why not?
They need to do like UK Parliament has done I've been asking what they mean by their repeated RHETORIC without saying HOW??? None ever answer. Can't stomach 'em on stupid podcasts either. Ex Robert Reich is pukey They sound like T at his rallies? People want to fight like they're at a concert?
Given his background and relatively young age vs his peers, I think @booker.senate.gov could do some serious damage to the GOP majority in the senate
This would mean that the Democrats would need to retire some of the aged meat sacks that "serve" in government under the Democratic Party banner.
I would be upset to see playground bullying, bar fight drunks tactics in the House. Mockery, growing peaceful public demonstrations and fighters like JB, AOC & the courts are better at this point. (schumer sucks & needs replaced) Sabot & underground resistance still work.
It would be fun to see some kicked into reality.
How about just getting F’ing upset at their abstinence cruelty and criminality!?
“obstinance” Damn autocorrect got me again.
Well I mean considering that they abstain from actually getting off their asses and doing something... Abstinence fits as well.
At this point I can affirm that NOW a January 6th is not only needed but badly necessary...not like the last time those clowns went based on a lie, now this is real and dangerous, I am just waiting to see when will majority of Americans will take matters in their own hands.
its not time for the politicians to get violent, its time for the citizenry to get deadly. head shots, and lots and lots of them, elected officials and red hated neighbors, i would say a few thousand would get their attention. lots of ammo, find good cover and shoot, often. no waiting on politicians
It would be evidence of some passion, at least. The Dems are sleepwalking through their responsibilities to their constituents and country. What will it take to light a fire under their butts?
Who among us wouldn’t revel in the sight of MTG getting hoofed in the gunt?
I'd pay to see it, tbh.
Bro!!!!!!!! Makes me wish I was a senator for a day just to engage with her and BoBert!
It would just be sad watch Chuck Schumer trying to hit other Democratic senators though... -.-
😄
Only if I can join in. I’m local 😄.
I would love to see somebody kick the shit out of Marjorie Taylor Green. It would be extremely funny if it was Bernie Sanders who did it
We have to be strategic here: if D’s get booted out of chambers, the SAVE Act passes. People now know it’ll disenfranchise M’s of voters, but did you realize it’ll shut down elections entirely? There’s no way elections officials can do what they’re asking. Don’t let the easy win defeat the big one.
I would love to see a fist fight on the floor of the house or the Senate. But Dems are not going to be fighting back.
Well, that’s the usual defeatist lying bullshit.
I have some very specific ideas on how I would like that to go.
It would be unseemly. OTOH, I would *pay* to see Jasmine Crockett bitch slap Comer, Mace, or MTG into next week.
Wouldn't be any worse than the childish nonsense posted by the White House and the FOTUS daily
It is a tradition. . .
no I wouldn't because the Dems would get expelled and the Republicans would be hero's...no not a good plan
I’d pay to see Crockett punch Greenes teeth out!!!
I'd pay for your ticket & mine!
I’d pick up the tab for all three us and buy you both a drink later.
Nothing like octogenarians swinging at one another
It would be fucking platinum
Or show up on May 14 for a counter protest demonstration to tell Trump that we are not North Korea. He is not the king.
Only problem is it takes two people to make a fist fight, and where are you going to get a Democrat to do that? Although we could probably get AOC and Jasmine to kick some ass. Jasmine vs MTG. Now that would be pay-per-view!
Anything short of a fistfight is lip service.
Nah. Taking it down to their level makes us as bad as they are. I want my elected officials to fight back hard and smart, but it can’t get physical.
I would pay good money to see Jasmine Crockett punch MTG right in the face!
I’d love to see it! But you’re talking about people who don’t live in the same world as us. They can’t even wipe without an assistant. Guaranteed 90% of politicians can’t even take a punch.
I’d be happy if feckless Dems could get their act together, choose new leaders. Look who we have: in the House, Jeffries and Clark who say they don’t know what to do, and in the Senate a Merrick Garland type who writes “strongly worded letters” to fascists.
This is what happens when we elect (too) old people to office.
Please, let it happen! I'll take Booker, Crocket and AOC against the entire MAGA House.
Shit’s going to snap once the tariff tax hits red states and EVERYONE reminds them how fucking stupid and deserving of the tax they are 😎💀
That would actually be nice to see...some of those loudmouth wussies need a good throat, nose, eye, jaw, gut...whatever...punch.
I would so like to snatch a handful MTG's hair myself.
🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
It wouldn't be the first time either. There's definitely solid Founding Fathers era precedent for 'em.
Not nearly enough commitment or courage- but I understand the printers are melting down from many strongly worded memos
I think a general strike would be more succinct ...?
Caning already has historical precedent. I've been calling for it for at least eight years.
A few well placed haymakers place soundly on Jordan, Gibbs, Roy and that banjo playing speak in tongues hick from Louisiana that goes by the name of Clay Higgins. I wish someone would put a lump on his forehead so big a calf would suck on it. Sorry I am censoring myself a little
NO- not advocating fist fights on the senate floors. But what I am REALLY clear about is that news continues to refer the GOP representatives as being “afraid of their base”! I’m not afraid of the base 🖕bring it on motherfuckers. I’m sick and tired of sitting back or hearing “your” 2Nd🖕. I’m done.
Amen to that. We all want to punch one of them.
I’d rather they bring back the duel!
Page from the British parliament ☺️. I’d love it.
Exactly.
We desperately need this energy in our House! youtu.be/25AUCNZKEnY?...
I'd like to see Jasmine or AOC get a hold of Marjorie's ass, all you would see is blond hair flying...
Id love to see this
Take care not to provide any reason to cancel/postpone/delay mid terms. Meanwhile, remember the precedents being set now that can boomerang back on MAGA.
I would commend anybody who raises hell. This complacency and idea that we can “across the aisle” is bullshit. These are fascists - The anti-Americans.
It would mean they are ACTUALLY WORKING on something...anything
From Malaysia www.youtube.com/watch?v=GJTW...
Should I run for a seat? I have zero issues with KO’ing these Republican bitches.
Pick the biggest bastard in there and cold cock that son of a bitch gop.
I'm down for it.
They destroyed panic buttons, planted pipe bombs, helped organize an insurrection, & helped a coup. I’m more than okay seeing a few of them get any consequences at all.
I'm with you!
👆👆👆
address it by establishing a national workers’ union—‘UNITED’—modeled after Poland’s Solidarność of the 1980s. Open to all, built around the message of Bernie and AOC, and next quickly re-organized into a powerful, union-driven, and silenced majority voter-supported Third Party.
Not me
👍🏾 And why don’t Dems start vocally supporting the GOP’s firearms in Congress idea? They wanted the mags torn out, Dems should get on board with that. Start making them more afraid of Dems than they are of Trump and his followers.
