❗ 👉 "The time for playing nice is over. The time for strategic cooperation has passed. The time for proving our commitment to bipartisanship is dead. When your opponent declares total war, you don't respond by helping them pass their transportation bill.

What would real resistance look like? Start with the obvious: Vote no. Vote no on everything." @Daojoan

"The time for playing nice is over. The time for strategic cooperation has passed. The time for proving our commitment to bipartisanship is dead. When your opponent declares total war, you don't respond by helping them pass their transportation bill. What would real resistance look like? Start with the obvious: Vote no. Vote no on everything. Vote no on good bills. Vote no on bad bills. Vote no on bills you helped write. Vote no on bills you support. When someone announces their intention to burn down your house, you don't help them organize their matches because you like how they've arranged them. No more attendance at performative hearings. No more lending legitimacy to sham investigations. No more careful amendments to bills designed to destroy democracy. No more pretending that this is just another round of normal political competition. No more self-congratulatory speeches about reaching across the aisle to people who want to saw the aisle in half."

It's Scorched Earth Time

This is a battle for the survival of American democracy itself. And you don't win that battle by helping your opponents load their weapons.

In other words grind the chamber to a halt. If Musk and Trump are trying to burn us down, deny rhem access to gasoline and matches.

If that isn't enough, remind the GOP that if we burn, they burn with us! If they force a civil war it will wreck the economy. Evem unopposed mass deportation is probably enough to burn down the economy at its agricultural base. That will cause many of their fortunes to sprout wings and fly away.
