In reply to the discussion: Pelosi not pulling any punches [View all]ehrnst
(32,640 posts)46. Last time a sit in was organized on the floor of congress
it was credited to a Senator who showed up later for a photo op.
And if Pelosi did that, the mocking she would get would make the shiving of Kamala Harris look tame by comparison.
amirite?
And if they are so effective, why aren't progressive Senators organizing some sit-ins of their own?
Bad knees? Busy schedule?

From where do you get that? Have you watched the "corp owned and controlled" MSM recently?

Yes, it's nit picky. What are you looking for, a sit-in in some office somewhere?

"A pulled punch"? What do you want her to do, what would YOU say if you were a Congressperson?

Thank you! Note that this is the OPPOSITE of those who falsely claim "Democrats do nothing".
