One economically illiterate President is forcing a totally thoughtless trade war onto the entire world, pushing our country into a recession while increasing taxes on everyone.
Congress needs to take the matches away from the President who is setting fire to the economy.
May 7, 2025 16:37Take the matches away? More like take the office of the president away from him.
And can we also take away the power from stupid people to vote?
So join
@ossoff.bsky.social in publicly supporting the House’s efforts to impeach Trump. For whatever reason, the Democratic leadership (in particular Pete Aguilar) seem to be whipping against
@shrithanedar.bsky.social ‘s articles.
If a senator in purple Georgia can do it, I don’t see why a senator from deep-blue Washington can’t.
Yep. So where is the GOP when they need to step up & actually put country first????
Yeah girl, we know shit is fucked. We need real action, not lip service like social media videos that only left-leaning people watch.
What are you and your party colleagues doing about this president? I have the impression that everyone is letting him do it. The constitution, the checks and balances, the laws - all unimportant.
💯 Yes to this. How can we help?
The GOP in Congress won‘t take the matches away from the
#RepublicanFelon. He just does the job the GOP wants him to do. Hold the GOP responsible for that.
I know what his end game is: to watch the world burn. But how could the whole GOP want this? It boggles the mind.😬
The word economically is functionally useless in that sentence because you can just say he's illiterate and it applies to everything, including economics!
Go get 'em Patty!
Congress needs to impeach the monster! Yesterday!
No tariffs! And all of you need to make sure your GOP colleagues feel like traitors they are to their oaths and constituents!
Stop giving unanimous consent, and people might believe you mean the things you say. When you keep rubber stamping the worst people for the most important positions, you look unserious.
Waiting …….
Well Congress could have, but all but 3 Republicans capitulated to Trump and they kept the tarrifs. I hope all the voters remember who did this to us when our shelves are empty.
And why?
Acceleration plan re: capitalist leadership shift to China⬇️
Tank economy
End safety net
Promote monopolies/factories
Outlaw unions/dissent
Buy elections
Nullify judiciary, lawyers
Centralize armed surveillance/police/military
🟰desperate, cheap, compliant labor for foreign-owned US factories
My only hope is that GOP's love of capitalism overrides their fear or indifference of authoritarianism and they work with Dems to STOP this madness.
they elected an evil, spoiled child
It's not congress, it's REPUBLICANS. Please get a minority leader that can actually fight back effectively. You are sounding the alarm but without action, we are just watching everything burn. A real Senate leader would have actual strategy.
Well, isn't that your job? Strike a few at your end and see what happens.
You must. And you must act NOW. Go around Leader Schumer if he's holding things up. Put together coalitions. Speak out CONSTANTLY.
I get that the media loves chasing the idiocy. But turn to media-savvy members and get out front of this now. Please.
Do something
Congress has proven they aren't going to do shit but talk. You think he is just going to give you the matches? Is there an actual plan?
Could you be more dishonest in you portrayal of you political opponent?
The Democrat party members are disgusting.
Donald Trump is crazy. He’s shutting America off from everybody except Russia…talking about America taking Canada???Donald Trump and MAGA may lose a few states!
Red Pen them all
Illiterate describes you perfectly.
You clearly don't read your "email" you don't respond here and you keep failing to redress grievances of ongoing failures to provide accommodations by others. Yet you do the exact same thing.
Why? Illiterate.
Um, aren't you part of Congress?
Take it back
Thank you!
Yes! Keep beating this drum. The GOP, each and every one of them must own every ounce of this insanity.
Thank you, Please don’t let Trump sell off our public lands either
apnews.com/article/publ...
House Republicans push to sell hundreds of thousands of acres of public lands in the West
House Republicans have added a provision to their sweeping tax cut package that would authorize the sale of hundreds of thousands of acres of public lands in Nevada and Utah.
You need to do something real and now because we're going to pick up guns sooner than you think. And no one wants that.
Sooo ... get off your butts and DO SOMETHING!!!
Bless you Sen. Murray! What the world needs now is more truth telling!
They should. The question is will they. Do they have enough backbone.

Trump is basically '[fill the blank] illiterate' about everything.
Then why did you vote to confirm ANY of his nominees? Why are ANY democrats voting to confirm ANY of his nominees?
You're the OPPOSITION PARTY. Do some goddamned OPPOSING.
It’s past time.
Ms. Murray l appreciate your undaunted fight for us! It's like the President & the Republicans are at war with It's own citizens! I say Why? I know he is working for the rich but we the middle class & poor are the majority in America! The endgame does nothing but create a sad & less safe America!🇺🇸
Amen!
We are already in a recession and if they don't stop this by second quarter we are going to be in the worst Great Depression in our history
You have to understand, he really is an uneducated, uncouth, and irredeemable moron
Another hour on community care hold for a VA colonoscopy ..
probably die first.
He shouldn't have the matches in the first place. Congress is the branch that has the power to set tariffs, not the executive branch.
Senator Murray,
Please pressure Senator Schumer to step down. He is way too passive for this moment and I fear it is intentional. His legacy is at stake.
Sincerely,
A working class American who deserves real representation

Well congress what are you waiting for
Please please please do not say "Congress must act".
That's removing responsibility from the Republicans.
You must always say:
"The Republicans who control Congress".
Work your hardest, pls.

Frank words. Now we need action. Dem Senate and House leadership must lead —surely you have some relationships across the aisle.
@murray.senate.gov @jayapal.house.gov @raskin.house.gov @repjasmine.bsky.socialYou’re Congress
Does this mean you’re going to “take the matches away?”
