We should also point out to recalcitrant Democrats that they can be primaried too. If they're so insecure in their positions that they are afraid to publicly stand up to the MAGAt coup the threat might work and they probably shouldn't be there anyway.

Does yelling at Democratic politicians accomplish anything?

I don't view reminding them that they are accountable to their voters as "yelling at them". IMO we definitely shouldn't be posting about Democrats being useless, etc. as that is self defeating, but I think Dave is on the right track.

Unfortunately, I am currently represented by a GOP Congress critter and 2 GOP senators! I will be adding my Democratic state representative and my Democratic Governor and State AG to my call list.

I don't think he is yelling, he is simply stating a fact. Take Senator Fetterman as an example. With his trip to Mar-a-Lago and his support for dismantling the legal system by voting for Pam Bondi he has shown he might very well be the next Joe Manchin . So he should be told i n no uncertain terms that if he doesn't stand up for democratic values he will not be nominated to run for Senator again.

I don't yell, just speak calmly and try to point out some realities they may not have recognized yet.
