An overwhelming majority, nearly 70%, did not vote to stop him though.

Apathy always wins, and I'm sick of it.

filed under: sad but true

Any local civic buildings would do as well. Think the local mayor's office or the local court buildings. We need to overwhelm them from everywhere.

Need 66 votes to stop him

Yes!! Exactly! Let’s hear it!

hey @georgetakei.bsky.social , just wanted to share this interesting Substack post with any followers who might have student loan debt:

I don't trust democrats anymore

Hell yes Mr Takei

Always so bold when they aren’t running for re-election. www.smith.senate.gov/u-s-senator-...

It’s a yes for Chuck. Ugh

I'm calling for the elimination of Traitor trump and the Muskrat.

Liberals are going to have to get over their 'ick' of guns right soon...

Just because we don’t make them our entire personality, doesn’t mean we don’t have them. In rural Michigan, guns and the ability to use them well, is in our DNA. I never want to…but if I have to….

It's cute that you think liberals don't own guns.

I like the way you talk like this.

Go far enough to the left, you get your guns back.

I was trained as a teen to use firearms by an FBI counterterrorism team when my family was named in a terrorist threat. My husband is a former rural Sheriff’s Deputy turned DOJ police instructor. There is no ick when it comes to guns in our home. The Second Amendment exists for a reason.

'Liberals' and other responsible citizens don't necessarily have an 'ick' of guns. An 'ick' of gun culture; 'ick' of ammosexuals' love of the 2A over life; 'ick' of a lack of enforcement of existing gun laws and the resistance to common-sense public safety laws, yes. Liberals are gun owners, too.

Hell no! Hell no!!

This Fascist Pig is an idiot.

It really would be nice if more dems actually had spines and cared about anything other than their “electability”

If the felon can revive zombie laws, we the people can revive zombie departments.

Tell the doddering Chuck Schumer that he is not the man for the job. He wants to actually fund the dismantling of our democracy. Guess his "strongly worded" letter was a failure. He is enabling an insurrectionist fascist MAGA Republican coup.

I prefer my bravery from someone who isn’t retiring.

The American public have metaphorically signed an executive order dismantling DOGE! 🧌🧌

Be careful of Schumer. He might just vote with the other side

Somehow I think they'll find just the right amount of Democrats to get it done 🫤

Wouldn’t it just be lovely if folks refused to have these conversations on Twitter? I mean why do we need to have discussion there? Both Musk and Trump are desperate for attention. If thier personal media were enough, they’d be content to stay there . Force the dialogue here.

Bummed she is retiring. She is definitely the better fighter between my two senators

No one can stop Trump and his henchmen from dismantling the US Government. In 2028, the best ticket to repair the damage, IMO, is Secretary Pete Buttigieg & Rep Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. In either order. The Torch must be passed to a new generation.

But will there be 8 Dems who think it is better to work with Trump to only dismantle 80% of the Department?

AOC almost wrecked the fucking country. We need considered, careful action. We are in a landmine and each device, if set off, can wreck the country. It is time to be beyond anger. It is time to General Strike.

Schumer caved to donny and an unvetted billionaire has access to everyone's personal info...but, AOC almost wrecked the country. Sure.

Exactly how is Schumer refusing to give Trump complete control of the budget, caving to him? AOC is the one that tried to give him complete control of the budget for an indefinite period of time. Schumer kept the budget in congress, and the CR WAY better than just cancelling SSI checks like AOC want

PS: Does this sound like an L for trump, to you? www.foxnews.com/politics/big...

LMAO word of advice--don't play poker. There was a 3rd resolution being crafted that didn't give the farm away on the 1st go-round (as the so-called "clean resolution" did for the GOP). Schumer literally "folded" right off w/o calling the GOP's bluff (as they did the last time, and the GOP caved)

Thank you, Senator

HELL NO

Sprinkle in some “Who the hell do you think you are? The King of England?” for me, please.

I’m not sure if we could count on @schumer.senate.gov

He was the dumbest student at Wharton School of Business according to a professor who had him as a student. He still is an ignorant dumb ass

Department of Education has been a shit show since it was begun by President Carter. The U.S. education system went from the best in the world to the worst.

The rest of the country of normal Americans is saying "Hell NO!"

Only believe it when we see it How many times have phoney Republicans faked rage and disgust only to vote for his actions Show me i am from

How about "Hell No. FU" 😀

I wonder if Schumer will cave again.

Because he likes his followers uneducated. Smart people think & that’s a danger to him.

The SECED needs to be impeached and fired. She should never have been approved. She is the one taking action according to the wishes of the Moron in Chief.

My guess, the bastards will defund it or reduce it till ineffective.

🤬

Well, Schumer, Fetterman , and Durbin will probably vote yes...from the Manchin, Synema bloc of the party .

We have that much confidence in @schumer.senate.gov to keep it together? Keep the Democrats unified? I have my doubts.

To all the idiots working full time supporting this imbecile, who the heck do they think will be babysitting their children if public schools start closing? We know you’re being forced back into the office, so what, are you bringing the kids to work every day now? This is fascist and scary as hell.

There was plenty of Twitter and BlueSky talk like this before the non shut down. Let's see how the votes go.

Trump should sign an executive order for the elimination of Trump.

Hell no and I stopped twitX i feel better and i uninstalled Krome(gooble) and i lost the ability to talk to my phone to ask a question i could type in the box Tnks

Hell to the f*ck NO!

We're calling for an elimination of oligarchs and corrupt politicians. Permanently!

He appears to be enacting his orders regardless of what either senate or judiciary prefer. By the time these challenges gain any momentum amongst democrats, those bodies will have had their power disassembled for good.

That’s my Senator

.....but what about @schumer.senate.gov and @fetterman.senate.gov? They'll rally their ignorant cronies and give them the 60.

Thank you Senator Tina Smith

His "orders" and "edicts" are just posturing and bluster and don't mean shit...he can't singlehandedly do ANY of what he's trying to do. Maine's Governor has his number. He's an empty suit...his diaper is full but the suit: empty. Trump had GOT to go...NOW! Those who bow need to be disposed of too.

Where was that energy for USAID?

Except he can move most of its mandate to other departments and kill it quietly

@schumer.senate.gov is brainstorming another lie as to why he needs to support Trump. @democrats.org why hasn’t he resigned yet by the way?

Sadly, Shumer, Fetterman, and at least 8 others will go along with it. They always do.

Schumer is going to cost the Dems the 2026 election. Just like Biden did 2024. Have Dems not seen their 29% polling? Pretty pathetic

Enjoy!! bsky.app/profile/anna...

F*CK TR*MP All We Need Is “U”

Sadly it sounds like President Muskkk can reduce it to just the Sec of Education.

I've heard it since the 1980's that republicans need to grow a conscience and democrats need to grow a spine... It applies more today than ever before.

@chuckschumer.com

Remember last time we had a hell no?

I couldn’t fit all of this glory into one screenshot but I read today a loud HELL NO and I’m here for it!

It’ll be reinstated completely with the next administration and the so called billions they’ve saved will be overshadowed by the trillions to restore it fully

www.fiftyfifty.one

thirdact.org/act/handsoff/

Trump dismantled USAID without Congressional approval & he'll do the same with the Dept of Ed. He'll shred it & place a small remnant under Health & Human Services just like he did with USAID, which now has a remnant under the State Dept.

If only more "Hell no!" energy existed before the 5th November last year...

Thank you Tina.

Proud to call her my Senator!

I don’t believe it.. they say one thing then bend the knee

Reminder: three really important special elections are just over a week away. Susan Crawford for Wisconsin Supreme Court supports fair voting laws. Gay Valimont and Josh Weil in Florida are running for US House. If they manage to flip their red districts, it would give Democrats the House majority.

He Needs 60 Senate Votes To End Any Department, As Those Departments Were Created By Congress And Signed Into Law... His Unconstitutional Attacks On Our Government Agencies Are Considered SABOTAGE/TREASONOUS, As 7 Of Those Departments Are Protected By National Security Provisions.

Heil no!

Yeah, but with Chuckie the Spineless Wonder as minority leader in the Senate, we can expect the Department of Education to be closed down by Wednesday.

He did what now?

Didn’t he already farm the loans to the Small Business Admin and the special needs programs to HHS?

Oh hell no.

HELL NO! HELL NO! HELL NO! HELL NO! HELL NO! HELL NO! HELL NO! HELL NO! HELL NO! HELL NO! HELL NO! HELL NO! HELL NO! HELL NO! HELL NO! HELL NO! HELL NO! HELL NO! HELL NO! HELL NO! HELL NO! HELL NO! HELL NO! HELL NO! HELL NO! HELL NO! HELL NO! HELL NO! HELL NO! HELL NO! HELL NO! HELL NO! HELL NO! HEL

Well Frumpo is dumb as fack. He had his daddy get him into Wharton on legacy bunkus.

Where's Chuck? @chuckschumer.com

Bigger question is how operable is the DOE without enough staff?

Yeah, but Schumer will just go along with it

But will a lawsuit do anything? I think they will just ignore it.

Pretty confident that Schumer will again say there is no good choice… then will go along with it.

Doesn’t seem to be doing much. Unless courts can do something or Republicans push back. It’s game over!!! They will have destroyed so much, it won’t matter if the dept exists. They are causing chaos and making the depts just worthless and impossible to do their jobs.

Don't worry, Fuck Schumer will cave and take the establishment Dems with him.

He will do anyways.

Chuck and the other 9 who voted for the CR might differ

Tie Chuck Schumer to a chair and gag him.

They said “hell no” to the CR and they found 10 cowards to cave! They will again! Moderate dems have no spine!

😡🤬

We love Tina. And respect for willingness to pass the torch to the next generation. 🙂

Trump needs a national emergency to eliminate the need for Congress to validating his Kinglike decrees. So far he has failed to cause one with Mexico, Canada, Greenland (EU) etc. No emergency no everlasting power He's now destroying the gov to cause a civil war so he's in power forever Your law

Slow down now! That's not scheduled until after the golf season ends. Can't expect him to interrupt golf games to do that.

He'll wait until the Masters is over then. Got it

#BELIKETINA !!!

And they just don't give a #$#$#$ about the kids they'll hurt. Kids are nothing more than stage props and photo ops to Trumpie and Muskie and crew.

Quid est quod olet?

need more spinal replacement surgery in government.....

FUCK this guy all the way into outerspace OFF.🏴‍☠️

Sad how they only get a spine when they decide to leave Congress

It's the same plan as repeal and replace. Dismantle and displace? Nothing useful or helpful or good. Just bullshit.

So proud of the Minnesotans who are taking a stand and yelling, “Hell no!” Tina Smith is in a great position. She’s not going for reelection, so she can say whatever the f&ck she wants to say. Thank you, Tina, for your efforts! 💙💕💙💕💙

The first of many, ending when Congress is abolished!

Chuck Schumer: "Well... I was going to talk with Ted Cruz in the gym about it to see what he thinks..."

Minnesota representing! (Again.)

You know Schumer is a yes.

Hell no

No, you don't need 60 votes. You only need to break the law faster than the courts work. Elon already has all US citizens data , which he got illegally.

Trump has completely forgotten that there is a balance of power. He is proving that his “dictator for a day” was an under estimate.

Don't worry, Chuck will find enough Dems to vote yes. Appeasement always works, right?

Cyanide pills work great too

I'd settle for the ground opening up and him being dragged into hell.

I held a seance(sp?) and talked to the devil. He said he's done taking our trash and we have to deal with it.

I'd settle for a truth tantrum toilet topple after his tiny ticker times out. 🤷

That would just be soooo appropriate for him.

💯

Do we want Vance running the shit show? I think that’s an even worse option followed by Rubio. There’s a no win situation there.

Felon47 is still going to try and do it. He disobeyed court orders, he is fighting with judges & he is not defending the Constitution as he swore when he was inaugurated. I guess they didn't have a Trump Bible either as he didn't swear on one. And Americans still are OK with all of this?

He doesn't care about the courts. It's time for massive and persisting protests.

Republicans apparently just need to wait until the next CR...

Well we know Schumer and Fetterman will certainly cave let's see about the other weak Democrats

America needs MORE people to stand you and say HELL NO. I guess it’s time to start calling again.

It doesn't matter if it's been disassembled or not if it's been reduced to a non-functioning shell of itself. Democrats have still not realize that business as usual will not do the trick in these circumstances.

Democrats want to fight? Start with removing Schumer as Minority Leader. Everything is hollow unless you remove the Leader of the Capitulators.
