@booker.senate.gov and I just tried to force a vote to allow the prosecutor who blew the whistle on Emil Bove to appear before the Judiciary Committee. Republicans ignored the rules – and rammed Bove through. All that matters to them is power and appeasing their Dear Leader.
You mean the one half of the Epstein tag team pedophile duo?
💪🤬
The regime is picking up pace. youtu.be/XT0wpT_62OM
The #fearleader. He’s afraid and wants people to fear him.
Question for you - while lauding Booker here, why did none of you stay in the room to support him? Walking out gave the MAGAs just what they wanted - a vote without opposition. You should have all stayed in the room and continued the argument. @booker.senate.gov is the only one with any guts.

178 days of dysfunction. It is likely the 3rd District, Court of Appeals, includes PA, DE, NJ & US Virgin Islands, will have to tolerate the lifetime appointment of this Guy. The damage a Court of Appeals can do can last way longer than any administration. Just look at SCOTUS decisions for proof.
America is toast. The stupid voters who put the tyrant criminal moron in power should go to hell. Anyway drastic stuff has to happen.
Do much more to stop the Nazi takeover. Posting the predictable outcome on social media after the fact is not nearly enough.
Please listen to Obama. He went too easy on Dems the other day.
When will the gloves come off? Most of us are losing faith that paid Dems in Congress will rise to the occasion and do their jobs.
Bless you, Adam Schiff. Truth matters. Right matters.
if you all get power back in 2026, I swear to god you guys better fight fire with fire and pull this same shit. stop taking the high road and writing stupid letters. ENOUGH.
If they didn't have a quorum thanks to the Dems leaving the floor, (thank you for that!!) how can the vote be legal?
It's upside-down. Everything illegal is now legal under the Felon.
Need to keep this in mind. I never thought we'd ever need an upside- down frown! I was wrong. 🙃
It's Unfathomable how ReTHUGS continue to support their SICK ASS Cult Leader!... Time to do whatever it takes to Repel these Dishonest Fascists!... We are a Lawless Country! Their own Constituents do NOT support them any longer!... Do whatever needs to be done to 🛑 Bove @schiff.senate.gov ...💪💪💪
We know they don't care about the laws. You're the ones who keep telling us to be bipartisan while we keep telling you they're stabbing you in the back. You confirmed Trump's appointees this week!
This is where democracy ends if people don’t stand up and fight for democracy. I will never vote Republican again. And I wonder whether if we will get to vote ever again.
It is over. they cannot be shamed. it will take a civil war to stop them.
Well, Sen.Schiff, you sound so surprised. Are all Dems clutching their pearls? I now understand the term 'snowflake'. It is meant for YOU ALL, not the people. Makes sense now from witnessing the last 6 months. POV- same 6 mths but Bidens Prez. MAGA would have already impeached,arrested, and jailed.
There’s no Zelensky in the Democratic Party - they’ve got no one for 2028 either - they need to run a Zelensky & all they have are supplicators
remember the things they're doing and do the same thing. KARMA IS A BITCH!
You do realize, sir, that we have a completely dysfunctional & corrupt gov't. We can march w/witty signs & shout & shake our fists but in the end, they're going to do whatever they want with impunity. Where does that leave the rest of us? What choice do we have short of taking it to the streets?
And you know what I mean by taking it to the streets. It's not peaceful.
So do something about it
GOP does not work for the people #Midterms2026
Power…. For what? They don’t have a clue, do they?
And all that matters to y'all is sternly worded letters posted on social media. Thanks for keeping us informed on our slide into authoritarianism. Your vapid narration has been oh so helpful.
And all you have are strongly worded letters and posts!
So how ‘bout Democrats start breaking the rules?
What I don’t understand is why MAGA is so afraid of him, and why you (Democrats) aren’t doing/can’t do anything to hinder him. I hate that I feel that the only thing that might save our country are successful mid-terms, and I’m not sure I can trust those odds.
You did have a lovely time with your buddy nuttyyahoo the War Criminal though. Right? A nice time chatting, did you enjoy the stories of innocent women, men and CHILDREN being murdered? Did you mention the US citizen just murdered by israeli "settlers" (terrorists)? Anything to say about that? ---
Is it time to pull a Tuberville block, Senator Schiff?
*their dear daddy
Who the hell over see’s? Wtf
Who thought the fascist take-over of the US would be this fast & easy 😳
Senator Murphy
Adeel Mangi was purposely shoved to the side because of your Zionist handlers and now Trump gets another rubber stamp. You cocksuckers are worthless. I'm truly surprised that for the midterms that Republicans are only +15 favored it feels way too low with how spineless cowards democrats are
Huh maybe ya'll should have shut this shit down instead of rubber stamping Cloture when you worthless democrats had the opportunity
Brad Parscale had dinner at my ex wife's house during the 2016 campaign and she signed a Non Disclosure Agreement with Trump. Around the same time that Adam Schiff and Nancy Pelosi came to my house. Milo Jeffrey Monroe , Tennessee. Censorship
This is how dictatorships are. I'm sorry but this is the new normal for America, unless Republicans wake up to what they're losing
It's disgusting!
We're doing our part by calling and yelling at these assholes! Now YOU ALL better start breaking rules! Fight back for our country and screw whatever investor you have, they're corrupt too!!
Right? I doubt that walking out had any effect
They've been ignoring rules. For years. Jesus, when are you guys going to get it together. You are completely unprepared for this.
Remember when your performative BS wasn’t enough to stop fascism? Well - it still isnt
@booker.senate.gov - The Trump Administration aided & abetted by #SCOTUS, Republican Congress & Senate are attempting & unlawful hostile takeover of the country. They’ve gone too far to leave peacefully. Bove is the lates example of grotesque but partisan hack installed in positions of power.
This is not going to end well. When you’ve lost the backstop of an impartial judiciary you’ve left justice in the hands of the people. If this abuse of the political, constitution & justice system continues the guns & militia will end up in the streets. Be forewarned.
This is no longer a legal Government. If a Commitee isn't abiding by their OWN rules of Conduct and Procedures... it is illegal. Booker is 100% justified in demanded adherence to the Rules.
The tyrannical fascist GOP tearing down Democracy
With the help of establishment dems. It's not even transparent and the dems don't give a fuck.
You can’t vote out fascism once they have put themselves in power
Weak. The powerless GOP did so much more than you while Obama and Biden were in office. Holding up confirmations for MONTHS. And you sit there whining. Do better.
Congress needs to attend a training session in which it is explained that they do not work for the president, they work for the people. They really don’t seem to understand their jobs.
Ya'll need to start physically blocking them, South Korea style.
He never will. New blood is needed.
New Jersey. Enough said.
Why do you keep going along? Refuse to accept their appointment. Find ways to block it DO SOMETHING
Well rather than walking out of the Senate like the Democrats did in the Judiciary, how about doing what the late Rep. John Lewis did on 6/21/2016. He led a sit-in for 26 hours to protest the lack of gun safety legislation. www.nytimes.com/2016/06/23/u...
Laws and rules are for us working shlubs. Ask Merrick Garland to help you. He knows how to deal with corruption! With the kiddiest of gloves! Wtf do you want me to do, Mr. Schiff? I can't even get medicare for all and taxed billionaires out of my own allies. Why whine to me?
Well Duh 🙄 Bove will be on the Extreme Court in no time.
When can we expect a strongly worded letter from Chuck Schumer?
zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz Sick of your performative politicking. Blah, blah, blah.
What’s he supposed to do. He’s not in the majority. America went down because morons put this crap in there.
Here's what all Democrats who are not in power are supposed to do: GO AND GET THE VOTES. That's what any party does when they are in the minority. They meet, make deals, threaten -- whatever they can do -- to strong arm the other side. These clowns just sing, dance and do antics. LAME.
You go and get the votes -- you don't sit on your hands and wait. www.npr.org/2009/08/26/1...
Ted had GOPers who believed in the Constitution. MAGA are tyrants. Trumps election is voter error.
No excuses. These Dems aren’t even trying. Stop covering for those in the Halls of Power. Demand more from this lame and lazy lot.
🥳
The same corrupt industrialists pay the Democrats & Republicans. They pay the Republicans to bully us & they pay the Democrats to get bullied.
So true
Have public hearings outside the Capitol and invite these witnesses. Georgetown’s Gaston Hall would be a good site.
I’m tired of the excuses. Do something.
The republicans are no longer legitimate. We the People must jam the phones and show up at local offices. We are citizens. We have inalienable rights.
Well, next time you are in power, make sure you respond in kind. That's the only thing they understand. They don't care about your tweets.
Lawlessness is embodied now in Republican Congress...elected officials that are supposed to be serving their constituents, not the regime. Reprehensible . Thank you for speaking out and continued resistance in the most eloquent way.
Death to repug party.
sounds rather like you when you supported the bitcoin billionaires bailout fund legislation...... $100bn of taxpayer money into bitcoin bros pockets hang your head in shame
Fuck maga
Then the whistleblower should depose themself to the public and media and every other available avenue.
If the Republicans are not going to follow rules, then they shouldn’t be accorded “rule following” themselves. Refuse to acknowledge their decision on Bove.
Today’s daily message of failure by Democrats to stop the fascists from taking over. There’s no Zelensky in the Democratic Party, nobody to lead the fight against fascism here. Just sad sacks like Adam Schiff telling us how they let Republicans bully them.
You're right but why are you continuing to help them by voting to move Trump's nominees forward?
What is the Senate Select Committee on ethics doing about the rules breaking?
What is there to do? When they break the rules and strong-arm everything they want? That's not government!
Bove fits the bill as someone who couldn’t pass muster with Leonard Leo, Bill Barr in the first term as a judicial nominee. State University of New York/Albany and Georgetown Law grad has no prior judicial experience and is not noted as an appellate litigator washingtonmonthly.com/2025/07/14/e...
You can't get Nazis to follow the rules. They are unironically calling themselves Nazis on TV.
Great. You also found time to get your photograph taken with a war criminal.
These inhuman excremental ghouls are 100% pure fucking garbage and a malignant, swiftly metastasizing tumor firmly lodged in the cold empty space where the heart of this dying nation once lived.
Would love to hear you discuss this, Senator. open.substack.com/pub/thiswill...
Stop showing up at all. Go home. Epstein will take it from here.
AND WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO FUCKING DO ABOUT IT?!?!
Booker will vote to confirm Bove just like he voted to confirm Kushner.
Republicans will be begging for votes, people in hell beg for ice water too.
Totally unacceptable behavior by the Republican chair of the committee. Anyone who has evidence of someone who is not fit to be appointed to a position should be able to be heard. Grassley needs to go.
then maybe you should also be ignoring the rules
Excellent suggestion!
Keep fighting!
‼️😡
How’s that reaching across the aisle thing paying off for you now?
So this is illegitimate and you need to hold your colleagues to the flames. There are no rules anymore Schiff. Time to start acting like it. Your colleagues across the aisle are rats and it’s time to start admitting what the end game is here for them.
. It was, is and always will be: a disgusting cult ! Every Republican is like a brain-dead MAGA now !! 💠 🫣 💠
Shutdown the New Yorker, the orange Pedo File is crying and upset.
You seem to be a big fan of Trump's other appointees. www.govtrack.us/congress/vot...
I want democrats to remember this if you ever get the majority again. I want to see the maga criminals sent to jail, tax cuts for the rich stopped, and ICE abolished. Enough of playing nice b/c we are playing with fire right now and our future generations are doomed if we don’t fight like hell.
And what are you going to do about?
Dear Dems, If you want my vote you MUST have policy to: ✔️Find and return EVERY person who was disappeared ✔️Return funding to NIH, CDC, HUD NOAA, Medicaid ✔️Shut down DOGE ✔️Close down ALL concentration camps in every state that took the money to build them
Maybe NOW you dummies will STOP voting for his other nominees?
Keep fighting. We appreciate you.
Okay, but what now? GET MAD AND STOP THIS. Check the energy from your supporters and match it! No more sermons. No more courtesy. Republicans are trying to destroy this country. You either comment on it, like this post, or you FIGHT.
Hey Schiff, do takr another photo with mass murdering Bibi, worthless fuck.
Dictator. Dear Dictator. #DumpyDictator
that's what cult members do. Trump is Jim Jones
Whatever stunt Tuberville pulled to block generals maybe can be used to block everyone esp Bove & the like. Someone read the rule book for any tool to disrupt. If one is nominated by this admin, assume they’re uniquely unqualified & dangerous to our Republic.
Schiff is the slimiest grifter this side of the Mississippi, and on the other side too.
Unfortunately, they are all on board with taking #America to the Darkside of humanity 😕 All we can do is keep on fighting against them and their illogical and perverted behavior. Yes, I do mean PERVERTED.
If it's against the rules, then someone needs to stop them.
IMPEACH!!! EXPOSE EVERYTHING AND PEOPLE WILL AGREE!!
Grassley is in the Epstein files.
Thank you for the walkout, Senator. It gets noticed and it matters.
Did it stop the forewording of the nomination? This was meangless theater. They should have gone up to Grassley mic and demanded that they be acknowledged. But nope they chose to scampet away like rats and you think it means something
You do not understand how any of this works, and you should speak less and listen more until you understand better.
Yeah, quick question, is listening working?? Have the Republicans stopped entreching fascism in our country because we're listening? No it hasn't. The ONLY way to stop a fucking nazi is to PUNCH THEM IN THE GOD DAMMED FACE
Yeah, well I'd say that it's long past time that we stop acting like ANYTHING going on in this regime is normal. If you have nothing to offer other than " you don't get it" maybe you should shut your fucking pie hole.
Perhaps you should forgo the vote and interview them own?
Republicans are working extremely hard to destroy America. They’re showing nothing that is for the American people. It seems that if democrats take control of the House so much damage will have happened by republicans. Republicans are fascist. Bottom line.
Does this mean that his appointment is illegal and he can be removed once we reestablish the rule of law?
YOU HAVE TO BREAK THE RULES. THEY DO. Get creative.
stop voting for his nominees entirely you idiot
So they ignored the rules..What are you going to do about it other than post on BlueSky…HOLD THEM ACCOUNTABLE
That’s Him!!! 👉
They did just that.
The Dear Leader who is just a plain idiot. Incompetent in all aspects. It's such a disgrace.
Now you have time to hand Bibi over to the ICC. Let's see if you really value justice.
I watched ya'll walk out earlier. I was proud to be a Democrat.
It's frightening.
The GOP operates in a world where nothing matters but what Dear Leader wants. It’s frightening.
Just go kiss the people who wants it!
Sen. Schiff you realize these Republicans (The Gelded Party) owe their lives to this fool.
t’s terrifying how loyalty to one man outweighs loyalty to truth justice or the Constitution. This isn’t conservatism it’s submission
🍊 continues to ruin out judicial branch in ways that will be difficult to undo. How can one person get away with all of this 💩?! The GOP needs to grow a pair and take its party back. They’re nothing more than a fascist regime now.
Then stop voting to approve Trump‘s appointees! You keep talking about fighting back, but your actions show that you are complicit in destroying the judicial system and the bureaucracy of democracy.
Technically it seems like a Republican STAFFER made that call?
Thank you, Senator Schiff and Senator Booker
Yes, and you let them. Maybe you should put a help ad in Craigslist: I'm sure someone's seen your spine.
Please remember that, because the process was corrupt, he should be impeached once the majority changes hands. What will you do to ensure this happens?
So what is the PLAN?
This Republican Party is filled with absolutely disgusting traitors to democracy
Mitch McConnell can stop anything with or without the majority but Democrats don't do anything?!?!
🎯
Speaking of appeasing Dear Leader, who's that voting with Republicans to fast-track another regime nominee? www.senate.gov/legislative/...
Republicans approved RFK Jr, Billy Long, Patel, Ed Martin, etc...why should Bove surprise anyone. These are smart men and women, they know these are VERY BAD choices, but choose loyalty to trump over their elector, their oath of office. Disgusting.
well, yes. The GOP is a mob org now
Why are you saying that in here? Jesus Christ! Do you people do ANYTHING for us? Why are you here? This should be your press conference EVERY FKN DAY!!!
Cool. Quit voting for any of their nominees then
These "Republicans" will live on Lucifer's block when their time comes.🔥
No...they'll just die and pay no price.
In reality, yes.
Since thoughts and prayers work SO well... I'm going to send thoughts and prayers that it's not LONG and SLOW and AGONIZING for them AND all their loved ones.
For them, I stop short of involving the non-participants.
You are a better man than me. I add them in because that's about the only thing that they care about, and anyone that stands up for them is a POS.
Seems like we have lost all pretense of democracy at this point. The corruption is nearly complete.
Yes, there are no moderate Republicans either eh? A national disgrace, Emil has no place in government, at any level imo.

Why do we need any of them any longer if they're just rubber stamps?
How does it feel?
Get used to disappointment. You've been rejected by the American people.
File an ethics complaint with the ABA against his law license .. There’s a reason 92% of Americas 1.3 millions lawyers didn’t vote for Bondis brother for pres..
The ABA has no authority over attorney ethics. Ethics complaints are filed with the state bar associations, or other entities that handle attorney discipline, in states and other jurisdictions in states in which he is admitted to practice.
So NJBA?
Every single MAGANazi Scumpublican traitor needs to be VOTED OUT. Every single one.
I was watching. Thanks to @booker.senate.gov for trying to maintain protocol in the committee. He was correct to try to insist that his point of order should have been at least ruled upon, even if eventually denied. It was astonishing to see Grassley turn his back and proceed with the vote.
I sincerely hope that the junior senator from California, Adam Schiff, and his colleagues develop the courage to lead instead of resorting to constant yelling on social media and television.
No. More. Excuses. (Remember the fall)
criminals running the government and the GOP is fine with it.
Hold your own hearings and get news coverage!
You all must convene, consult with an attorney, and obstruct any means necessary! Once he fills the benches with his judicial nominees, you might never witness a fair election again.
Senator Booker should realize that he cant appeal to the good graces of Republicans since they dont have any
Thx for your gallant efforts. The GOP has no morals & no soul. They would sell their mothers for the right price.
And to hell with being a deliberative body!
GOP nothing but sycophantic COWARDS
No the Democrats are the cowards
As soon as you realize they don’t play be the rules you’ll be able to fight back harder.
This is a better move than voting to approve his last nominee. When will you learn that "being collegial" and voting for ANY of their nominees is pathetic & enabling?
You Senator, as well as Sen. Booker and a few of your colleagues have shown courage, while the majority of democrats sit on their hands and whine while the Trump GOP engages in an historical take down of our democracy.
They're too busy defending a Pedophile President to take time for proper decorum in confirmation hearings.
If they ignored their own rules , then it’s not legally binding…. Is it? The system must change. Term limits , no more life time . Judges should come up through the system , with new post , new term. Ethics Committee of former Judges. Legally blinding. And term limits. A review of top down
What happened in committee this morning is seriously concerning. The Rs have drawn a new line in the sand that they’re not going to allow anyone other than a R speak. Which effectively means only R voters have representation in the senate. This is not a democracy.
This is disgusting and terribly sad. Such a vacant man to be appointed to an important job he has no business being near.
Now you're getting it! They have abdicated their humanity.
Republicants don't care about rules or laws, or deficits, except when it profits them personally.
Keep resisting trump Thank you for your patriotic service Sen Schiff
Seems like he deserves to be disbarred, but would that stop his nomination?
*sigh* and a really repugnant cockroach will now be a judge who has already served notice that his answer to any lawsuits brought before him is "fuck you".
And acting true to form; e.g. Mitch McConnell holding up SCOTUS nominee - Garland - during Obama's last year. Repugs continue to get away with not following the rules with impunity like their Dear Leader...
Every day more shit.
Glad to see you take a few minutes away from voting to confirm Trump's nominees, Adam. Bravo.
Maybe stop voting for his other nominees bro
Like Schumer voting for Alito. How did that turn out?
Thank you both for stand up and against the Repubthugs.
Y'all should've confirmed Adeel Mangi when you had the chance.
Stop posting and fucking get mad and do something now!! If you do not! You should just become a republican because you’re towing their fucking line!! God dammit fucking do something!!!!🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬
I imagine you’ll write a strongly worded email now 🙄
The old, obviously burn-up, Grassley must resign.
You needed to do more to stop it. You and other Senators have abdicated their responsibilities. Don't care what you had to do to stop it, use all the powers of your office and all your authorities, filibuster, refuse to provide unanimous consent forever, this nomination needed to be stopped.
