Titled "An Urgent Conversation with the American People," the livestreamed discussion comes ahead of Congress' return to session on Monday.

A statement released by both officials' offices said in part, "Republican leaders have made clear their intention to use the coming weeks to advance a reckless budget scheme to President Trump's desk that seeks to gut Medicaid, food assistance and basic needs programs that help people, all to give tax breaks to billionaires. Given what's at stake, these could be some of the most consequential weeks for seniors, kids and families in generations."

According to the statement, Rep. Jeffries and Sen. Booker plan to speak to shared American values and the nation's religious and moral underpinnings, and how the budget bill opposes these beliefs. They also plan to affirm to Americans watching the livestream that their voices matter, especially in this moment in time.

So let me get this straight. Someone says

Waits until the guillotine is half way through the neck

Bro pls bro we have to stop this bro

clearly blaming the past inaction of the Democratic Party for the state of affairs today, and you chime in with:

I hope you have the day you voted for

And go on to double down that you are blaming this person for fascism. And all of this is you not sewing discord or blaming the left? You know who I hate worse than sycophants? Sycophants who constantly lie to rile people up. I don't care or believe who you voted for. You behaving like this only serves fascism.

This is exactly what they did to me and it's very apparent that they're not capable of meaningful discourse beyond childish heel digging.

Honestly, you leave Reddit to get away from this paper thin sports-team politics nonsense and yet here we are feeding the parrots.

It's depressing.

I definitely was hoping Lemmy would be better than reddit for this but it's the same neoliberals bullshitting that was rampant there. It's exhausting.
