Van Hollen and Booker showing how representatives in government should be working for their constituents. I hope their aim is to be as annoying as possible until something good comes of it, but I worry Bukele will just arrest them and further erode the numbers we have in Congress.
I just need you to think about this. The republican establishment got a bunch of illiterate morons who don’t care about their kids… to invade and take over schoolboards across the country. In a grass root movement. They completely upended educational systems across the country. Fueled by fake news and just enough political guidance to pull it off. I can point to a million things the republicans did in the last 12 years as an opposition party. Dems 0. What the fuck the republicans wrote a whole play book on this shit and no ones going to use it? Why are we not flooding state elections with money and candidates? Why are we not pushing ballot issues in 50 states? Why are we not focusing on election reform in districts, court cases anything. Everything.
I am very aware. I don’t think these are mutually exclusive strategies forward. So focusing on drastic reform in the Dems needs to happen alongside immediately resisting actions from the new admin. I wish it were another way, because inevitably your efforts are diluted. But time is of the essence in this situation, unfortunately.
Well here’s another republican trick. They used tax payer money to ship illegal immigrants to marthas vineyard, NYC, they basically flooded cities with immigrants for LOLS. Why can’t we spend some money and flood DC with voters? Just throw a big old party in DC and obstruct everything. Time is of the essence. No one has time to fly to el salvador. Every second our leadership is not leading people against fascism, is wasted. People don’t know what to do, they need to be guided, they need to be supported. They don’t need feel good news articles that say “IM HELPING”
