We won the House and the Senate last night, but Trump still has a Congress that covers for him until the new one is sworn in. These four letters make sure he doesn’t grab anything, and that the new majority knows what we expect from day one.

What the Dems and all of us need to do is restore our balance of powers first and foremost. And Get big money out of politics. End monopolies.

Jennifer Schertz's avatar

I sent all 4!!! Although I am in Fort Bend County, TX, and don't think my reps will actually DO anything -- but it's always worth flooding their inbox with the letters so they know EXACTLY where their constiuents stand on these issues.

THANK YOU!!

The most interesting thing for me yesterday, while running 2 precincts, was how well-behaved all the voters were. In the previous few elections the local magas were uniformly belligerent and in-one's-face. Not yesterday. We had record voter attendance and everybody was polite and kind. Plus we had a few first-time voters - 2 18-year-olds, and 1 40-ish Latino gentleman. All were applauded and congratulated. It was a long, but ultimately rewarding day. And we sure are happy about the results! Now the real work begins. #BlueWave #DontbeComplacent

I am glad you had that experience but here in Amherst, NY and surrounding areas, you could definitely tell the Republicans from the Democrats. The Republicans were stone faced and did not say please or thank you. And the Republican official who worked with me first thought that it was going to be a slow day - it wasn't and he was expecting Blakeman and other Republicans to win - they didn't.

What a night. What a new day. Hope restored.

I have never been more optimistic about the power of this democracy. Never more excited about the opportunity to reshape the political order for good.

You made history. We did this. Thank you for everyone who stood with us through these dark 2 years. We wouldn't, and couldn't, do it without you.

You two were fabulous last night - funny, informative and it was fun watching how stunned you were (we ALL were) as results rolled in! Incredible. Thank you!!

Renee Goodman's avatar

Sam, thank you for a fun night last night as well! I asked Scott if he could do a Zoom meeting for our community to celebrate out BLUE win? You think it’s possible???

I was with Scott’s podcast on that fateful election eve 2024 where we lost the presidency, the house and the senate. Thank you Scott for all the heavy lifting you’ve done!

We the people have VOTED!!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

We didn’t give Trump and inch, but some Dem leadership certainly did. We aren’t going to tolerate ANY of that now. We will bend them. We aren’t going back to the 1990s. We’re going to change this country for good.

Sister Stan's avatar

Yes. We the people MUST hold them Accountable!!! I KNOW Scott and his team will help lead that charge. Thanks to all for helping me to keep hope alive!!

I think these morons would be happy in the forties. Their brains never evolved.

Kim Nesvig's avatar

Now would be the time for Republican members of congress to find something resembling a spine. They can rid themselves of Trump by joining with the Democrats to remove him from office.

Sister Stan's avatar

And we the people need to get billionaire $$$$ OUT of politics. WE showed them last night what really matters!!!

Pam Edgeworth's avatar

I'd be thrilled if they could simply start working together with the Dems to solve a lot of the problems brought forth over the past two years.

Ms Jonington's avatar

I am so happy! And so grateful for everyone here who helped make it happen.

Honestly I don’t know how I would have survived the last two years without the dworkin report. Thank you, Scott and Sam, and everyone here who comments and shares—you made this great. And you made history.

Subpoenas. Investigations. Impeachments. Oh my!

Subpoenas. Investigations. Impeachments. Oh my!.....

Renee Goodman's avatar

Sandy, but most importantly helping millions of people in the US getting their life back: losing their jobs, food and gas affordability, housing issues, health insurance, Medicaid, etc!!!

Sandy Rosenthal's avatar

Just to be sure, I am 100% in favor of Subpoenas. Investigations. Impeachments!

It was a sweep and now it’s time to throw the trash out

There is so much work to be done. We can’t let down the pressure between now and January.

Reckoning - We Almost Lost Our Country

My thoughts:

1. Americans woke up and exercised their constitutional rights. Democracy is alive! We had to dave ourselves. Let’s keep it growing.

2. At 13, trump’s parents sent him to military school due to behavioral problems. Those behaviors never changed. Voters sent him to the boneyard with his bone spurs intact.

3. Vacation is over! Congress is going to be working for their money this next term!

4. Kudos and thanks to independent media, substack, Meidas Touch Network, YouTube, for bringing us real news and investigative journalism. We could not have done this without you! The truth is buried at FOX.

5. Thanks to all of our allies for continuing to support US citizens, all while being abused by a MAGA president, MAGA congress, and MAGA billionaires. Your support kept us going. Thanks to Ukraine, Canada, Mexico, Denmark, Greenland, Estonia, Sweden, Norway, Netherlands, Switzerland, Australia, England, Scotland, Wales, the entire EU and so many more. Thank you.

6. There is much to do, and we WILL get it done.

Thank you, from me (California) to you.

Voters didn’t just speak. 🗣️ We roared! 💥

Now it’s time to make sure the Democrats use the power voters gave them. Hold R’s accountable.

Renee Goodman's avatar

Theodora, perfectly said!!!

I was watching MSNOW. Went to bed at 1a after Blue won House and Senate. I whooped, clapped, laughed, and threw my fists up and shouted, YES!!!!!! LOVE IT!!!🌊🗳💙

So exhausted but so happy. While still work to do I hope we can look forward to two years of less chaos, less anxiety, more healing of rifts, more accountability and definitely more policies to support everyday working people.
