I seriously doubt they're concerned about possibly being down 4 points in a 2026 election.
Yeah, the hyperbole on Twitter is wild.
However, nice chess move by Cooper running for senator. I’ll definitely be out there is 2026.
Al Green will be known as Al Green in the future. In 1000 years we will sing songs about him.
Skeletor is the richest man in Congress. How did it make his money?
I prefer him called Fire Marshalldell Bill because he blows things while interfering in people's lives.
Congress needs to take away his Executive order powers. He is about to start a world War and destroy this country's natural resources!
This dude is so stupid, he has the word "me" stenciled on his mirror.
Who know's how much truth there's in this?
But I don't think anyone would be surprised beyond the heavy pro-right twitter influence prior to the election that Elon and his Doge crew had their Cracker(Bad Hackers for the unintitated) in the election systems.
They won't ever be able to prove it.
Supercoon is in the building!
Brain On Ice letting you know he's a bitch nigga by replying to a post denigrating a Black Woman twice.
I believe those numbers...Roy Cooper is extremely popular in NC.
Hopefully it spreads for other seats
He made his money as part of the largest Medicare fraud in history.

Layoffs Surged In February To Highest Level Since 2020—Led By DOGE Firings
More than a third (about 62,000) of the cuts were in federal government positions. Employers announced close to 222,000 job cuts in 2025’s first two months, the worst two-month start to a year for layoffs since 2009, during the Great Recession. Andrew Challenger, the firm’s senior vice president, named DOGE actions, canceled government contracts, trade war fears and private bankruptcies as the primary reasons for the layoff surge.

How the fuck does this happen? Dems can't even close ranks in solidarity on backing their own? Fucked up messaging, lack of action by leadership even if only symbolic in nature, no true direction on a path forward to rally their base. They need to get their shit together as a whole quickly.
PATHETIC!!@Big Tex
The Democratic party is a steaming pile of shit
10 Democrats join with Republicans to censure Rep. Al Green for Trump speech protest
Ten Democrats joined with House Republicans on Thursday to censure Rep. Al Green for his protest during President Donald Trump’s address to Congress this week — a formal condemnation of the Texas Democrat’s actions.
The vote highlights divisions within the Democratic Party over how some members protested the president’s Tuesday night remarks. Locked out of power in Washington, Democrats are searching to find a compelling, unified message to counter Trump and the new administration – a struggle playing out not only on Capitol Hill but across the country.
Divergent tactics were on full display during the president’s speech to Congress, with some Democrats holding signs, walking out of the address or boycotting it altogether, while others took a more muted approach.
House Democratic leadership had urged members not to mount high-profile protests and to show restraint during the address, cautioning such actions could be seized upon by the GOP.
Censure amounts to a significant rebuke of a member of Congress, though it does not carry an explicit penalty beyond a public admonition of a lawmaker and is not as severe as expulsion. Censure, which was once considered rare in the House chamber, has been used more frequently in recent years.
Democrats previously failed to kill the effort. On Thursday, the 10 Democrats who voted with Republicans to censure Green were: Ami Bera of California, Ed Case of Hawaii, Jim Costa of California, Laura Gillen of New York, Jim Himes of Connecticut, Chrissy Houlahan of Pennsylvania, Marcy Kaptur of Ohio, Jared Moskowitz of Florida, Marie Gluesenkamp Perez of Washington and Tom Suozzi of New York.
Three of the Democrats – Kaptur, Suozzi and Gluesenkamp Perez – represent districts that Trump won in November.
Green, 77, disrupted Trump’s address to a joint session of Congress Tuesday night, prompting House Speaker Mike Johnson to remove the Democratic lawmaker from the chamber. Green on Wednesday told reporters he’d “suffer the consequences” of his protest and that he would do it all again.
Johnson earlier Thursday criticized Green’s behavior during the speech as “shameful and egregious,” saying it “disgraced the institution of Congress.”
“He deliberately violated House rules, and an expeditious vote of censure is an appropriate remedy. Any Democrat who is concerned about regaining the trust and respect of the American people should join House Republicans in this effort,” Johnson said in a morning post on X.

CNN’s Aileen Graef and Morgan Rimmer contributed.
Mike Fitzpatrick in PA01 voted for censure. Maybe those 10 voters live in a terrible district. Why didn’t any of the CA GOP caucus stand with Al? You can’t imply voters will punish the GOP in 2026 and get upset that democratic candidates don’t believe you.
