“SHUT DOWN THE SENATE. SHUT DOWN THE SENATE….”
This happened last night. Demands from the American people for the Government to shut down all proceedings of these (unqualified) nominees to STOP THE COUP D’ELON.

W/respect for Connolly, the successful push to have him & not @aoc.bsky.social the Ranking Member on Oversight was a strong signal that 'they' simply don't get it.
When it comes to Senate Dems, Unanimous Consent votes are a searing indictment about failure to fight:

No one think it is magic, on its own, but one quorum call is phoning it in.
No UC — on anything
Constant quorum calls
Taking the floor for filibusters
Sand in the gears becoming concrete to #ShutDownTheSenate

Exclusive | Democratic Senator Says He Will Stall Trump Nominees Until USAID Is Back

Long b4 Ds settle on tactics (how to stage press conferences, what kind of things to post on social media) their leaders, starting with Schumer & Jeffries, need to change their mindset about what it means to be in opposition.
