It is up to us to hold our elected or selected representatives accountable to us. Do you have the phone and contact info of your Rep and Senator in your phone yet? Have you looked up their previous voting record and know whether they've been voting Conservative or not? What committees are they on? Follow the committee and especially who chairs the committee. Are your Reps on social media? Great place to give them your opinion publicly but remember the email goes on the record so do BOTH. Educate yourself on the issues and interact with them. You just may be the one telling them something they didn't know. Take your role as Boss seriously. Set goals for them like you would an employee then hold them to those goals. Imagine if millions of us did this daily/weekly!!

I could thank my Dem rep for not voting for McCarthy. Maybe suggest they switch their vote to Jordan or Donalds while Im at it lol.
We ARE the Oversight. Form a local committee committed to keeping your Reps on their toes.
My new congressman already hates me.
Is using existing blighted scaffolding to build the future a wise call to action?
This isn't about building the future it's about tearing out the rot first. Exposing it to sunlight and scrubbing, scouring it. There is plenty for everyone to be doing. If this action doesn't float YOUR boat then you do you - just do SOMETHING besides criticize others.
Tell that to your senator! Ask him his net worth while you're at it. It's important to not underestimate the deep state. Lobbying congress without $$$ as if they represent you... it's ignorant. I love you, but it's ignorant. https://qposts.online/?q=only+way&s=keyword
Ha! My Senator was Portman, think I don't know THAT? You are preaching to the choir. Vance was selected, he will be Portman 2.0. The Senate is on vacation now so not bothering with him at the moment. I was one of hopefully hundreds who wrote to Portman telling him he'd never be re-elected. He quit early so maybe he listened? I worked on the campaign for a citizen candidate to replace Portman. The state GOP blocked every outsider and didn't allow them through the Primary. I KNOW what we are up against and how bad it is. But that doesn't change OUR duty as citizens.
You just defined insanity.
No, I defined Citizenship in a Republic. What you are refusing to do is insanity.
Not here to argue efficacy of wheeling and dealing with corrupt blight, only to point it out. You think it works, I think it doesn't and that military is literally the only option to oust a belligerent occupier. What you have is Stockholm Syndrome. You've identified with your usurper so much so, that you believe negotiation still exists. It doesn't. Good day.
I did not say it works. I make no such promises. I DO say it is our DUTY as citizens to show up and speak up. I never mentioned negotiation OR compromise. You are looking for some easy payoff. Welcome to Life, what you want doesn't exist. Only work exists so work towards what you believe in and don't wait around complaining for someone else to save you. Good day.
Vance has already been bought and paid for.
That pos will be seeking the best deals he can for himself, there is zero chance he will even be remotely conservative.
So you just sit behind your keyboard and complain and doom and moan and be comfy.
