Summary
Democrats are ramping up opposition to Trump and Musk’s brazen assault on the federal government, which critics see as a constitutional crisis.
Protests erupted after Musk’s DOGE accessed taxpayer data, prompting Democratic lawmakers to pledge stronger resistance.
Senate Democrats staged an all-night protest against budget chief Russell Vought, while some senators vowed to block Trump’s nominees. Hakeem Jeffries introduced legislation to curb DOGE, as activists push for McConnell-style obstruction.
Nationwide protests and lawsuits signal a revived anti-Trump resistance.
Growing grassroots engagement and local officials taking steps to counter Trump’s agenda reflect intensifying opposition.
This would’ve been useful six months ago, but ok.
Hah…hahahah…hahahhahhahah…HAHHAHHAHAHHAAA!!!
Bringing the full force of their over boiled noodle spines into action!
Maybe this is lost in translation, but as a Canadian, the second biggest party in power IS the opposition … And you guys only have 2 parties?
So like… What?
What’s their idea of “more aggressive”?
Oh really? I’m sure a strongly written letter will get them this time. Maybe a limp slap on the wrist?
Nice that they finally noticed that they are now opposition and finally have to do something.
They’re not doing something. They’ve just decided that something should be done somehow someday.
going to
???
We’re going to be the opposition
Love the future tense here. If you already WERE the opposition, we wouldn’t be in this fucking mess. Also, democrats say they’re “going to” do a lot of shit they never had any intention of ever doing and just make up some goddamned excuse.
Until they actually do something, they’re enthusiastically complicit.
No hurry. Rome is just burning. Take your time. Don’t forget to consider how your actions will impact your investments first, however. That’s what’s most important after all. We want you guys to be completely comfortable. No worries, we’ll take the bullets while you figure things out and come up with a plan of action.
C.O.D.E. (Civilians of Democracy and Ethics) is the counter action to DOGE. We cannot let this stand. Spread the word. Protest. Call lawmakers.
Is there a website or something?
ill believe it when i see it. theyre still promoting the oldest people possible to positions, ignoring the working class and pretending they have to ‘work together’.
Democrats promote by seniority, because they’re the fundraisers. Meaning, those are the easiest politicians to buy
They also give donors confidence, since they have the longest records of accomplishing nothing worthwhile.
We’re going to be the opposition.
Think I can hold my breath until the opposition actually starts?
the fact that marco rubio was confirmed unanimously when y’all need to be hindering literally everything donnie dickhead does…
But what about the rules and decorum?
Someone has to add an air of legitimacy to the Cryptofascist takeover of America, who better than the same enlightened centrists that ushered it in?
I bet they will be as good at being “the opposition” as they were at defending Roe v Wade, or being “the resistance.”
These people had like 50 years to codify it, and did not. They knew all along what the strategy was and they did nothing. They did nothing when Clinton reduced benefits and did his whole thing.
