shunned by your people. You will never get another penny in campaign money. You will never get another vote. You will never hold political office again.
To vote for funding is to defile the memory and graves of Nicole Good and Alex Pretti.
God damn it Democrats, grow a spine. It's time to stand against these Nazis. The only right answer is NO!

And be cruel to the Reds about what you think of traitors to the Constitution if they vote yes. Remind them the Regime will end some day.

(37,710 posts)Republican in a social setting in late 2023. At that point he'd been out of office since he lost in 2018.
He literally winced when the Mayor told him my name. I harangue and harassed that msn.

(54,689 posts)I've called all GOP senators and many GOP congresscritters for 10 years and I am always able to get through to a staffer or if the mailbox is full you can leave a message, which I always do.

(54,689 posts)For the congresscritters I use their local office numbers. Also, my goal is to call the GOP reps since my city, county and state are blue. I think that trying to get them to believe I am actually one of their evil MAGA voters is my greatest acting achievement. I should get an Oscar.
I got a great idea in 2017 at an "impeach tRump" rally. To look like I really am a MAGA constituent I need real addresses in their local districts and states just in case they ask. I don't want a long conversation, I want to state my opinion passionately and end the call ASAP! That way they don't have time for too many questions. I also have a short 1 paragraph "speech" which I practice first. The cool woman who gave me a great idea said she used Zillow for local addresses in all the districts in the USA. It takes about 5 minutes per call and it works!!!! I go to the specific MAGA's district and look up "Zillow, homes for sale, etc". I get a local address, just in case they ask, and it works.
I don't worry about the MAGA staffers asking about the area code of my phone since people keep the same phone number when they move so an area code isn't an issue these days.
MY problem is that I get too caught up in the "roll" I'm playing as a pissed off constituent and I actually start to cry sometimes. I think this may be a benefit in the long run since it shows them how I am very upset and a passionate constituent regarding their awful rep's political stance.
