Weekend edition of Dems, Dems, and more Dems! [1]

['This Content Is Not Subject To Review Daily Kos Staff Prior To Publication.']

Date: 2025-03-09

I’ll be doing these diaries every few days. My goal is for people to see a variety of Democrats speaking up and out about this administration. I’ve seen too many people on other social media sites, as well as here, saying “more Democrats” need to speak up. As someone who follows A LOT of them on social media, I can assure you they are responding.

I’ve included members of Congress, as well as state elected officials.

I hope to show a variety of Democrats from across the states, and offices. I also encourage you to follow them as well, including those who aren’t your members, and others who fly under the radar.

x Kaine: "You can talk about sending education back to the states. Yeah, that's where we were before Brown v. Board of Education. The states got to decide, and the states made a hell of a lot of decisions that were really awful."

x Reading the CR bill text now. Republicans are zeroing out the Toxic Exposures Fund (to care for veterans exposed to burn pits, Agent Orange, and other toxic substances) on October 1.



They cut $23 billion from their own bill they passed last year.



You can’t make this stuff up. — Rosa DeLauro (@rosadelauro) March 8, 2025

x While Musk gets $8 million a day from the government, he's making cuts that experts say will make the Social Security payment system "collapse."



Seniors should not miss their check while billionaires can get tax breaks and kickbacks.



Save Social Security. Fire Elon Musk. — Congressman Greg Casar (@RepCasar) March 8, 2025

x BREAKING: we’re suing President Trump and the Trump Administration for recklessly firing tens of thousands of federal workers, including thousands of our veterans.



It's wrong, illegal, and bad for our state and our country—that’s why we’re headed to court to try and stop them. pic.twitter.com/NsZRgTioNy — Governor Tony Evers (@GovEvers) March 7, 2025

x Rep. Jake Auchincloss:



“So, the question is—who’s buying Trump? The Kremlin, by buying the Trump crypto coin.”



Bingo.

x This Repub CR, that they claim will keep the government open, is a perfect example of why you must read bills.



Inside the text, you’ll find cuts everywhere, and so much money taken from vets you wouldn’t believe it. These guys are frauds.



Nice try! Hard NO! Throw it in the 🗑️ — Isaiah Martin (@isaiahrmartin) March 8, 2025

x House Republicans voted for a budget that could take away school lunch from 30 million kids. pic.twitter.com/gb6kmQPTAD — The Democrats (@TheDemocrats) March 9, 2025

x Trump wants to FIRE 80,000 VA employees so he can give millionaires and billionaires about $70,000 off their taxes.



To be clear, he is firing the nurses and caseworkers who care for our veterans and gifting their salaries to the wealthiest people in the country. — Senator Ruben Gallego (@SenRubenGallego) March 8, 2025

x If you thought Donald Trump and Elon Musk weren't going to go after your Social Security – you thought wrong. They already are.



Here's what's happening: pic.twitter.com/np4p4zzdpf — Adam Schiff (@SenAdamSchiff) March 8, 2025

x Agriculture orgs are having to remove language like "diverse crops" because of Trump's war on diversity.



And don't get me started on Trump's BS stance that people of color and women caused the tragic Potomac plane crash.



Diversity isn't the problem, racism and sexism are. pic.twitter.com/1B1DJNzPvP — Senator Mazie Hirono (@maziehirono) March 9, 2025

x There was a powerful sense of solidarity during today's Town Hall at Our Lady of the Lake as we heard from veterans, students, seniors, & others who are worried about the future but ready to stand up for San Antonio, Texas and America.



Thank you to the 1,000+ people who joined… pic.twitter.com/2Edy9E3L0x — Joaquin Castro (@JoaquinCastrotx) March 9, 2025

I’m closing with this solid burn in response to a republican MOC from Oklahoma.
