Plus we need to see how elected Rs react to millions of people who protested on #April5th, plus the #Republican loss for #Wisconsin Supreme Court, plus the backslide of 2 R+30 #USHouse districts in #Florida to R+10... These people will only stay loyal to #Trump if he's a guaranteed winner.
@mav.wtf this sort of thing (from before today's #HandsOff protests worldwide) shows the cracks in the facade. Their 218 member majority cannot tolerate handle more than ~4 people to vote against #USHouse #Republican bills, and the #USSenate is already not a reliable Republican bloc.

Senate Republicans safely huff and puff about separation of powers, knowing that the House Republicans will do nothing.
There is a #Dem member of the parliament who has been holding a speech in the #USHouse for, like, 19 hours as a filibuster. And so far so good. But it can do so because the very modern rules of the chamber allow you to speak as long as 'you can stand'

@joshweil.bsky.social is running for #Florida District 6 in the #USHouse, which will chip away at #Republican control & make it harder for #PresidentMusk to implement the #MAGA #Project2025 agenda. Live in #Flagler, #Putnam, #Lake, #Marion, #StJohns, or #Volusia county? You can help! #vote #FL6
Seems we have the lowest representation of House members to population in the world, among nations who say they are democratic.
A discussion by Elie Mystal on Fresh Air took ne down this rabbit hole---I had no idea, and I wonder of many people do?

US citizens: call your Representative and demand impeachment. The Trump Justice Department just threatened to cease payment of Social Security.
Let's see the MAGA Republicans defend that. Get it on the floor of the House and let them say he should be retained in office.

I'm gonna try this again because it's important.
If you have people in Florida, please talk to them about the US House Special Election on April 1st. Both Gay Valimont and Josh Weil are decent candidates that would help tip Congress toward decency.
The U.S. House of Representatives voted Thursday to censure Houston Congressman Al Green for disrupting President Donald Trump's address to a joint session of Congress on Tuesday in Washington.
as a rule I don't ever donate to #Republican politicians, but I'm pendant going to kick some $$ to anyone who primaries #BarryLoudermilk next year. He voted with nearly all #USHouse Republicans to cut #Medicaid and probably #VA spending drastically. All to give more tax cuts to the wealthy...

@winnabledemraces.bsky.social how do you feel about @gayforcongress.bsky.social and @joshweil.bsky.social on April 1st down in #Florida? Given the pretty crazy flips we've seen recently, the tiny margin in the #USHouse, and the distaste for #MAGA, I would say it's worth taking a shot... #FL1 #FL6
is it time to talk about #RecallElections for every #MAGA sycophant that's subject to #recall?
apparently it's unclear if members of #USCongress can be recalled (probably requires #SCOTUS review).
but if we can get rid of 1 or 2 #Republican #USHouse members, the #Democrats can take control.
Laws governing recall
“House Budget Committee Chair Jodey Arrington (R-TX) released his spending and tax blueprint Wednesday morning – the initial step in kicking off the reconciliation process,” Punchbowl News reports.
“Arrington is already taking withering criticism from members of his own panel and the broader House Republican Conference.”
