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.

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?

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.

There's a reason why Bernie/AOC/Walz is getting the love they're getting
I gotta stop and give them credit....this is waaaaayyyy better time to push themselves than back in '16. They helped usher in the first trump term by causing a lot of unnecessary division. Fresh off a tough election loss I'd say this is the best time for a newer voice. I'll be watching them to see how they build up steam.

We would be a swing state if we weren't gerrymandered to hell, but we even voted in favor of that this time 🤦🏻‍♀️

Gerrymandering does not factor into Presidential or Senatorial elections. It has been a clean sweep for a long time now.

Maybe, in addition to inviting senators and congress members, we should invite local media, and have seats reserved with their names on them, so we can distribute photos and video showing who did and didn't show up.

That’s an excellent idea.

The Democrats must be insanely rich to pay so many thousands of paid actors at each of these events! And I’m sure it’s impossible for there to be one republican in the house, I’m sure they barred them from entering!

Lexington KY empty chair twin hall for Andy Barr. This was about 1/2 hour before the event. When the event started, the theater was at full capacity at 900 people. Bipartisan event and the Republicans are pissed.

Wow! Senators, all of you, you’d better start reading the tea leaves, these are not “paid protestors”, these are very angry, scared, involved Americans. It’s our country, our government and we want it back.

Republicans REFUSED to do
anything about Nixon until the
S&P fell off by 50%!
The Trump Slump took off 10%
thus far, but life comes on fast🤣
That can change.
50%~that’s how fukking stubborn
Republicans are.

Senate hearings on Watergate—headed by the real life Foghorn Cleghorn—went on for 14 months before Nixon resigned.

And he didn't resign until 13 months after the bombshell testimony of John "cancer on the presidency" Dean.

We're in for a long and bumpy ride...

Unless we flip the House, April 1.

Maybe social media will speed up his resignation. Americans had to wait for newspapers & news. Now we can get it 24/7.

🇺 takethehouse.bsky.social
joking aside, though, I hope you are 💯 right.

but since I lived through those hearings, I can tell you: every single person in the United States was watching it. It was awesome television.

Perhaps that's where they got the idea for reality television.

Living is Ohio is the definition of a shyt show. We have Dumb & Dumber in the senate, our governor is an evil little muppet, and now Vivek’s used car salesman act is all over the place as he ramps up his run to replace the muppet.

That was literally Trumps entire campaign and current platform. Worked great for him.

Wyoming is a ruby red state. Nothing is going to happen.
A lot of them will just stay home and only the fanatics will show up to keep the state red.

If democrats were a competent party they'd be injecting millions into small races all around the country. As much as I hate Republicans, they understand the long game FAR better than democrats. They bought up local news agencies, funded local candidates whether it was sheriff, school board, whatever elected position that existed they were there with cash and support.

Over time you can see electoral maps and its just a sea of red. Democrats have been taken over by hustlers looking to just get a cushy job and make nice speeches every now and then but then proceed to do the bare minimum because they actually like being able to say "hey it's either me or the crazy republican" that messaging has some effect on black people but it doesn't work on whites who represent the majority in this country.

They don't care if things go back to the jim crow days. How does that hurt them? Saying that Republicans are regressive and trying to scare voters into going out to vote for them is like telling a smoker that smoking increases their risk of cancer. They do not care. Now if you tell them how much money they spend on cigarettes every year and what they could be buying instead of that, then maybe they'll consider cutting down.
