Trump Watch January 23 2017

Day 353:

With friends like these…

Democrats vote with republicans to continue running the government 3 weeks at a time…I mean sure the hostage takers gave up CHIP funding for 6 years…but what will they demand in a couple weeks? Jesus our government is dysfunctional.

Every democrat that constantly votes with republicans (I’m looking at your Joe Manchin, Heidi Heitkamp and others!), needs to be primaried by a true progressive.  I know every republican is bought and paid for by the Big Money Interests, and now we know about half the democrats are as well.

If we don’t start electing people that will work for us, and not private big money interests, this experimental democracy is over, and we will have a true oligarchy, and from the looks of who is currently in power a nasty fascist one at that.

Tools of change:

Feel like this is all a bunch of bullshit? Want to do something about it?

Calling your government representative:

Call your Senator
Call your House Rep (Or use this spreadsheet)
Call your Governor
Call your Attorney General
Or try this website
Fax Congress here (free!)

You can also use 5Calls.org if you are having a hard time figuring out what to say.

Tell them in no uncertain terms that you want them to fight to stop Trump from doing these things. Tell them you will be watching them closely on how they vote, and will hold them accountable during the next election if they cave to Trump. You can also call other states congress people and threaten to donate to their opponent if they don’t do what you want.

Phone Bank for Progressive Candidates:

Call the White House:

202-456-1111

Call the “White House”:

Use this website to call one of Trump’s many properties he has not put into a blind trust yet, and let them know how you feel (be polite, they are workers just like us, but be firm).

Do a little Slacktivism:

Send Some Text Messages for progressive causes (I know it says textforbernie, but its for a range of progressive candidates) Or you can have your texts turned into faxes by the ResistBot

Go to a town hall and talk to your congress person in person:

Check when the next town hall is here

Monitor your congressperson:

Keep track of how your senator is voting on cabinet picks here, so you can call them up and give them hell if they vote for any of these worthless fuckers.

See how your elected representatives are voting for or against Trump.

Elections!

Also be sure to keep track if you live in a district with an upcoming flip-able seat (flip to the left that is)

See if you have a special election in your area!
