Can anybody give these old-ass Democrats protest lessons? They're acting like they're still living in pre-2015 politics when the GOP gave a shit and wasn't deranged.
A member gets up and starts shouting: All get up and shout with him.
Don't walk out: MAKE them carry you all out, not shutting up the entire time. I'm serious, go limp, be dead weight.
Putin's Puppet says a provable lie: Everyone chant "LIE" in unison for a solid minute instead of holding pitiful little signs in front of a man who can't read above a 3rd grade level.
Have someone who knows ASL sitting with you, interpreting everything in full view.
If you're gonna hold signs, make them BIG like you're actually trying to do something. Have them in multiple languages.
Make other signs that say clever or cutting things that will make him rage for days. "DOESN'T OLD TRUMP LOOK TIRED?" or "PUPPET PRESIDENT" or "EVERYONE IS FACT-CHECKING THIS SPEECH TRUMP DIDN'T WRITE" or "THE EMPEROR HAS NO CLOTHES" or his current tanking approval rating next to a laughing emoji.
Make a stink every day in congress, throw as many bills as you can on the floor even if they go nowhere, look like you're trying.
Have someone, idk maybe someone you actually want to boost for President in 3 gd years, be your voice of opposition in the media, loudly complaining and telling the facts, every single day. Let the people know you're there!
How hard is this? There's probably better suggestions than mine if they actually hired seasoned protestors or behaviorists/psychologists or even the biggest teenage troll they can find on a messageboard.
The Emperor Has No Clothes. So fucking act like it.
Oh no. MAGA is mad that the NYT shared the names of DOGE staffers. Don’t share this! Would be a shame
Saw some of this on BlueSky, but in case anyone needs it: CDC recommended immunization schedules, Wayback Machine-archived from 2024.
Birth to 6 Years Old
7 to 18 Years Old
Adulthood
Don't rely on Internet Archive either, download these as PDFs (you can do that from the "print" link on the archived page).
If you're a parent, tell your doctor that you want these vaccines on this schedule for your child, even if/when the CDC changes their recommendations.
If you're an adult, or soon to be, and believe you may have missed any of these vaccines as a child, talk to your doctor about accessing your vaccination record and getting caught up. Many (most?) states also have an online vaccination record lookup.
Man, almost like Gavin Newsom is full of shit and fully made up that 80% of Americans are agaisnt due process and used that as a way to try to push the party further to the right, because he's proven over the past few months he is a right-winger.
He pulled the same shit with trans rights, saying it's an "80/20" issue against, when in reality it was only 80/20 when you exclusively poll not just Republicans, but Republicans who have never met a trans person (for Republicans who have, about 35% support trans rights which is still alarmingly low)
It's all bullshit. We need to stop listening to people with some of the worst instincts and intentions in the party.

See photos from the nationwide protests against Trump
For the third time in a month, tens of thousands of protesters took to the streets, government buildings and the White House in a nationwide rally against the Trump administration.
Driving the news: Thursday's May Day protests fall on International Workers' Day and are calling attention to policies that affect working people, including threats to Social Security and union protections.
By the numbers: About 250,000 people had mobilized by midday on Thursday in more than 1,100 cities, by organizers' count. That's more than double what organizers expected earlier in the week.
