Another hippie here... My daughter found a photo from the 1st women's march, and got it framed for me...this grandma had a sign that said: " I can't believe we STILL have to protest this SH*T!"😂
What did you protest for in the 1960's....stopping the Vietnam War and making sure all Americans were treated equally regardless of the color of their skin? Now the Dems are the party of warmongering and discriminating against white men.
WE don't have to only contact our own representatives. The more repubes that get contacted, the more they're apt to realize the people are behind them and that we, the people, are who they work for, and NOT the orange poo.
No they didn't! Omg. That is peak fuckery! I had a feeling when I watched the first 10-15 minutes of MJ day after election! They were very demure, very mindful! How putrid of them!
I just left a message as well. The phone number even had a prompt instructing the caller with the simple message to leave of requesting that are representative vote no, and even repeated the name of the bill several times making it incredibly easy, and then it connected me automatically with the voicemail of my representative where I left a message.

@@hammill444 if we keep it up unrelentingly, yes. The more people that participate, and the more often they participate, the better the chances. Worst case, the nazis just ignore democracy and reveal themselves to even the densest of the trump-humpers.
If you go to the link inside Indivisible to see how your rep voted last time, you can click on their name and directly get their office's number, too. I'm not criticizing, just pointing this out for people under you who are being critical.
I'm calling some that aren't mine too, but pretending I'm in their district. I look up their zips ahead of time and block my call, which they might be able to see through anyway (so be aware), and refusing to give my name. The more calls they get, the more empowered they'll feel to vote for the people and not one criminal. When people realize we have the power and not the other way around, and act accordingly, we win. Otherwise, we lose. They are at their most vulnerable now, so how are you going to act? You can grow a spine, or bend over and take it.
@@Wanderinggypsy68 I used to think that but called anyway. I used to call this one die-hard, right-wing nut job all the time, and always felt hopeless doing so. Then one time I called and was told with absolute certainty that he would NOT vote the way I wanted him to, but then he caved and ended up voting the way I wanted to. Don't ask us to give up before it's even started. When the people realize we have the power, is when the elected officials will feel empowered to act in our favor instead of against us.
I don't see why we can't call more than just our own representatives. Those in districts that barely voted for them would be especially vulnerable to swaying.

@@s.j.5850 I just watched a video where a guy who breaks computer systems said there was a marked increase of "bullet votes" in swing states. Those are mail in ballots, where they ONLY voted for Trump, and no other candidate on the ballot. He has blown the whistle in several older elections, when there were massive discrepancies. He said the number of these single vote ballots is alarming. There needs to be a hand recount.
She's getting one here in Pennsylvania thanks to a close Senate race. Let's see what that turns up. We're one of the states that got hit with the bomb threats during the election. If something's not right here, it could trigger a national recount 😉
Called my rep. Thanks for calling attention to this, PG. Politicians have gone insane due to the Israel Gaza situation. They think anti-semitism is the biggest problem but actually Fascism and disinformation are our biggest problems.
No on HR9495, unaffiliated should not mean uninvolved. Patriotism is staying involved with your local, state and federal representstives on both sides of the aisle. Check up on what they do and what they say. All the time not just now
In her book, "How to Stand Up to a Dictator," Nobel Prize-winning journalist Maria Ressa calls it "democracy's death by a thousand cuts." The more cuts we block, the less we bleed. Don't forget to pay attention to how they attempt to change your state and local laws as well.
I just posted about her interview with A li Vel chi. It's here on Y T ( *_'Hold the Line'_** : Nobel laureate says Americans should learn from the Philippines experience*_ ) Enlightening and terrifying.
Not an American so can't call my representative. Gave the video a like to boost it. These videos are the way to get thing done! Direct to voter actions - regardless of party!!!

Time to get back up. I didn't hear no bell... We've got the 2026 and 2028 elections coming up. For 2028, we need a Bernie-esque left populist candidate to run for president.
@shangrilaladeda Unfortunately it's not. First, the Trump campaign ran ads saying Trump forever, showing just Trump every 4 years until infinity. Second, Trump himself has said many times, publicly, that if he's elected (and he was) "you'll never need to vote again, this will be your last election." He's also publicly said "I may do a third and a fourth term, the people like me so much." He's rapidly aiming for unchecked and authoritarian executive power. He's following dictators' playbook. It's entirely feasible that he will either suspend elections entirely to stay in power, or pass a measure to eliminate term limits to stay in power, or work with MAGA Repubs to rig the system so our elections will be like Putin's (simply for show and rigged so no one else can win), or simply napalm the Constitution, as he has also publicly stated as a goal.

Biden has set those wheels in motion. America may very well soon be scorched earth. We'll have YOU to thank for fighting Trump.
I've been subscribed to Marc Ellias' Democracy Docket and since the election have joined the ACLU. The latter emailed me this morning about the very bill which Leigh is talking about, and I signed the letter. I'll be sending my own emails and calling my representatives in Congress. I've realized that trolling the trolls is not gonna cut it. We've got to take action!
And I bet they could careless what you said or how many people call. I think it's funny people still actually believe they have a voice in government. We have not had one in the 68 years I have been alive

Thank you for sharing this info! I shared it on my social media. Followed the link inside the Indivisible document to see that my representative voted nay on this piece of trash. I called her to thank her for her previous vote and encourage her to hold firm if this comes back round. It only took a couple of minutes.

Moral support from Canada!! Come out strong at the gate!!!
Not an american but commenting for support
Positive vibes from New Hampshire, remember to be kind to each other and yourself during these trying times.
Please continue to send these call to action. We need to know what to do.
Agreed! I want to take action but sometimes it's hard to know where to start.
What to do?
What to do is stop listening to hysterical Karen's like this nut job in this video...thats a great place to start, then turn off msnbc cnn , I promise your life will improve dramatically
@@AussieCat111 Take action? The country already did. The action has been taken. It’s over now. You get on with your life and continue to pay attention and learn. THAT is what you do. You push yourself to know the law, understand and educate yourself. THAT is what you do.
@@Lovintruckinusago kiss the ring maga…
@@AnneMorrison-s6g You would be better served by opening your eyes to reality. A dictatorship is about to take hold. And presently, we have no tools nor any mechanism by which to resist against it. Those are just the facts.
My representatives in the House and Senate are all deep blue, so are already on board with this!
We still need to flood Congress with calls...they keep track of the volume.
I live in a blue county in a blue state. I will still call my congressman tomorrow. I have to do something.
Mine are too! But I call them ANYWAY! I have had congress on my contact list for 8 yrs... 😉
Not true for all blue states.. apparently Adam Schiff (CA) voted for it.. so blue state voters, please make the call
I double-checked on the list and my representative voted correctly. It's still good for them to hear that you've got their back -- I called to thank her and encourage her to stand firm. ❤
Thank you
Will share this and take my action tomorrow
Done, Leigh! Email sent to my congresswoman. Thanks for making us aware of this.
How did you find their email?
Should be blasting Harris’ social media accounts about requesting a recount!
^^ election denial = insurrection
💯
Why,just to annoy? We lost. Now organize to prevent the worst.
No! You need to unite. You need to put differences aside!! Save your democracy, or you lose your voice completely. Pick your battles. Save your country first; battles and finger pointing later!!
@@Jim-bh7gs ; Bingo!
Done. Thank you as always, Leigh!
Thanks for the reminder .. HR-9495 .. got it!
Thank you Leigh! We are the resistance!
Thank you so much! Everyone has been telling us to resist and that we have to stand up for ourselves but you are the FIRST to give me something real and tangible that I can realistically do to help! I don't know how any of this crap works! I've never stood up to a corrupt government before..... Until now! Thank you thank you thank you! I'm boutta put these mofos on speed dial! 😂
That's where they've been for me for the last 8 yrs!!!😂
Welcome!! We need you!
You're Rockin' It, Politics Girl! Love your "Voice"! Thank you for showing us a way to action! Subscribed & liked!🗽
I will not lay down no matter how many people I alienate. Bring it on!
we have to actively resist. democracy requires action and act we shall
Time to get back up. I didn't hear no bell... We've got the 2026 and 2028 elections coming up. For 2028, we need a Bernie-esque left populist candidate to run for president.
And when Trump suspends elections…
@@Gabriel49718 Don't obey in advance. We cannot make it easy for them to roll over us.
@@Gabriel49718that’s a lie
@shangrilaladeda Unfortunately it's not. First, the Trump campaign ran ads saying Trump forever, showing just Trump every 4 years until infinity. Second, Trump himself has said many times, publicly, that if he's elected (and he was) "you'll never need to vote again, this will be your last election." He's also publicly said "I may do a third and a fourth term, the people like me so much."
He's rapidly aiming for unchecked and authoritarian executive power. He's following dictators' playbook. It's entirely feasible that he will either suspend elections entirely to stay in power, or pass a measure to eliminate term limits to stay in power, or work with MAGA Repubs to rig the system so our elections will be like Putin's (simply for show and rigged so no one else can win), or simply napalm the Constitution, as he has also publicly stated as a goal.
@ you’re a idiot believing everything you see
Let the Resistance Begin!
Fight as hard as you can to stop Trump from stopping a now certain nuclear war.
Putin has already declared he WILL launch NUCLEAR weapons.
The US started this war.
the US funded this war.
The US gives Ukraine all the weapons.
The US just gave Zalensky permission to use US made long range missiles into Russia.
Take a wild guess at where Putin's nukes might be aimed.
Keep fighting Trump and Gabbard, the ONLY two people trying to STOP this.
Thanks, just called. Also, for everyone with a Dem U.S. Rep, *check* how they voted before. If your rep is Republican, they voted for the bill unless their name is Thomas Massey.
Where do you check how they voted on this bill?
True... we are getting tired.
Give up & you automatically LOSE. PUMP IT UP & GET BACK IN THE GAME!!!
Absolutely. Will do it tomorrow morning.
@@Rich-xq8df I had the same response last night. Left my message this morning. We Can make a difference.
Resistance is about fighting back, so I get the term, and we will. But we need to act like the Opposition, which is to act operationally, and organize, which is what Leah is saying here.
I've called. Thank you for keeping us informed
I don't want to give up! I'm ready to GO!!!!!!!!
Ready to call my representatives thank you for the guidance
Resistance, obstruct, protect….. call your senator and ask they vote against it!!
Hawley is A jerk! I’ll call but he’s a 🤬!

It has to pass HR before gets to senate, right?
Well, your representative, but yes.
After hearing your call, I searched phone #'s of my House rep to voice my No Vote for HR 9495. Also added to my contacts #'s for senators for future calls. Thank you for the info and nudge💯💙
I will definitely call to stop HR-9495
done, tho I don't have any hope that calls and petitions have any effect on our reps
You don't know that until you give it a try. Step up for our democracy!!!
@@s.j.5850you just have to wear them down!
OMFG, my rep sponsored this bill! No, I did NOT vote for her! I have got to move out of this ridiculous red county.
Still call. They need to know you're watching and displeased.
You should join the 4b movement!
My rep is Michelle Fischbach, ergo I have no rep in congress. Thank god Amy Klobachar is my Senator.
Call her anyway to let her know you don't agree with the bill & you will notify friends & family about it.
VIVA LA RESISTANCE!
put us in coach! 💙
Lol
Thankfully, my Rep is voting NO. #RESIST 🇺🇸
I just called Tracy Mann of Ks. Left him a message.
And the attacks on decency & community from MAGA commences.
Nothing has commenced. Just random partisan prognostications.
As compared to the NUCLEAR attacks Politics Girl is promoting.
Fight as hard as you can to stop Trump from stopping a now certain nuclear war.
Putin has already declared he WILL launch NUCLEAR weapons.
The US started this war.
the US funded this war.
The US gives Ukraine all the weapons.
The US just gave Zalensky permission to use US made long range missiles into Russia. YOUR president Biden did this.
Take a wild guess at where Putin's nukes might be aimed.
Keep fighting Trump and Gabbard, the ONLY two people trying to STOP this.
Nuclear war is somehow preferred over MAGA comments.
If you are HELL bent on making America die, do nothing. Biden has set those wheels in motion.
America may very well soon be scorched earth.
We'll have YOU to thank for fighting Trump.
we GOT this 💙
I’ve called people from NJ, PA, and Maryland today.
✨✨💙✨✨LET'S GO!
Thanks Politics Girl for all of your hard work and not giving up!! 💙💙💙 I’ll spread the word 💪🏽📲 🇺🇸
Thank you political girl for all that you're doing to save our democracy and our rights and freedoms, we are the resistance 🇺🇸👍💙...!
H9495 No now 🇺🇸
Hi Leigh ! I just contacted my local government representative. Voted *NO" !!! 👍👍👍
Excellent, well said, Ma"am
I've been subscribed to Marc Ellias' Democracy Docket and since the election have joined the ACLU. The latter emailed me this morning about the very bill which Leigh is talking about, and I signed the letter. I'll be sending my own emails and calling my representatives in Congress. I've realized that trolling the trolls is not gonna cut it. We've got to take action!
I called my representative. Thank you for the information. Many times we want to be proactive but we just don’t know how to so! This is helpful.
And I bet they could careless what you said or how many people call. I think it's funny people still actually believe they have a voice in government. We have not had one in the 68 years I have been alive
@ I hear you and understand your frustration. Apathy and inertia is not who I am.
I just did this and signed up too! Thanks for alerting me to this terrible bill 💯
Heard about this earlier and was like, whaaaatttt? I JUST finally got approved for PCA hours for one of my daughters. Well, there goes that source of income. 🤦♀️
Get a job, stop relying on government you’re part of the problem without even knowing how anything works or just live without money
Made my call! We need daily action alerts!
lets do this !!!!!!!!!! yes IM tired to but we need to stop this crazy !!!
This should be run as an ad on every video. Thank you for sharing actionable steps that empower, without furthering despair and hopelessness
I left a message, then shared your video with three more people. Thank you!!!!! It feels good to join the new resistance
Thank you for sharing this info! I shared it on my social media. Followed the link inside the Indivisible document to see that my representative voted nay on this piece of trash. I called her to thank her for her previous vote and encourage her to hold firm if this comes back round. It only took a couple of minutes.
Need to speak up to put judges in place can't leave the seats vacant
We need to call for an investigation of the presidential vote to!
No actually we do not. If the Harris campaign is satisfied then so should you. Conspiracy theory nonsense has to stop.
The work is never over. Keep marching forward!
Thank you for providing a detailed path to get our voices heard
Thank you for the information.
I'M WITH YOU!!!! ✊
Gal, my house rep is Scott Perry. 😂 His office workers will laugh me off the phone. 😂
Thank you. Please continue to post more of these short format, simply worded, actionable steps. It’s going to be crucial going forward. 🙏
Thank you!
