I really can’t blame him, you bad people were going to ask non fox approved softball questions and there was information some of you were going to say mean words and mean words can hurt.last week alone 2 congressmen did not get a minute of sleep. The mean words were running over and over

The legacy media only focuses on AOC and Bernie because “horse race” of elections. It’s why Bernie walked out of an ABC News interview because they wanted to talk about AOC running for Senate years from now! Not oligarchy. Not substance what we face. News media makes our populace dumber.

This gaslighting POS is my congressman. I showed up for this event a half hour before it started and got turned away because the crowd already exceeded capacity.

They’re using Lindsay Graham as inspiration. Or Mitch McConnell. Those fukkers just can’t lose, no matter what they do (or don’t) for constituents.

And they keep electing them! Why? Because they think Dems are worse? Gerrymandering has got to go!

I want to point out again that these empty chair town halls are taking place around the country. The anger in red districts & the collective number of participants is huge yet the media (and a lot of Bluesky accounts ) are focused on Bernie and AOC.
Why?
Gov Pritzker, Walz etc are virtually ignored?
16/35
tonysomo.bsky.social
BTW this is how the media “manufactures” news and pulls influencers along.
There is growing frustration and anger with Trump not a clamor to pitch & make Bernie a candidate again.
But you wouldn’t know it.

Jesus, NC! Rep Dave Brat, formerly of VA07 was still holding town halls in ‘17. A couple. But he got tired of “women in his grill” and stopped them, so we voted him out in ‘18. Wake the fukk up!
24/35
crystalsoul42.bsky.social
Why does he get voted in? Have they learned yet? Let’s wait and see before I get sappy with sympathy, shall we? I’m glad to see people coming out sharing their disappointment right now, but votes say more.

It’s never been about efficiency. It’s tearing down the US strength, security, economy, health and education for the benefit of the tinpot war criminal and allow the uberrich to pick up assets cheap
