Alda @macfeegle.bsky.social · 15/03/2025Every senator up in 2026 except those who are not running for office again ended up voting no. That's no accident. They will pretend they didn't want this result. But they didn't object to unanimous consent. They are just as guilty. Start joining local dems, lay groundwork for primarying them 000
Alda @macfeegle.bsky.social · 15/03/2025Important to note that this makes every single dem senator complicit. Any one of them could have objected to unanimous consent and stalled things, at least a little. So even those who voted no should be primaried. They allowed this to happen as much as those who voted yes. 000
