Hello,

I am so disappointed and angry to witness, Vichy-Democratic leadership failing to resist authoritarian shifts, thereby betraying foundational democratic principles. Chuck Schumer and his caucus are voting for many of the Trump nominees, who are currently responsible for the federal funding freeze and gutting the Treasury (over 15 Dems voted yes). A private citizen, Elon Musk with ties with Russia and China, now has access and control over $6T and sensitive American data. In Germany, the CDU/CSU collaborated with the AfD, lost credibility, and shrunk their electoral success. Germans are marching as we speak against any collaboration and the rise of AfD

Given these concerns, I am calling for the current Democratic leadership to step down, and be replaced with Leaders that actively oppose authoritarianism and uphold democratic values. The public, electorate, and political pundits have no confidence in Chuck Schumer, Durbin, Klobuchar, Whip Clark, and Aguilar.

Some headlines: Democrats vote to confirm Treasury nominee by Roll Call Chuck Schumer is pushed to lead and oppose Trump by NYT (Seriously???) Democrats are sleeping by FT Chuck Schumer tells democrats to wait fighting Trump by Semafor (the federal funding freeze for Headstart is not a big deal? The USAID shutdown? Immigrants being put in Gitmo?)

In the midst of all of this, I am receiving fundraising emails from Dems (disrespectful), and Kamala Harris is MIA (her voice matters more than ever). Nancy Pelosi engineered Gerry Connolly's win over the AOC. This seems to me Jefferies and Clark are leaders in name only. Meanwhile, Markey and Warren scoffed at the idea of the young generation of Dems rising.

The next midterms won’t be a story of a blue wave but how establishment and old Dems are kicked out just like the establishment GOP did by the Tea Party in 2010. Politico, NYT, and WaPo have gotten off-record comments about how the party is directionless, the leaders are paralyzed on what to do, divided on messaging and actions to take. The party’s favorability is at 31%. Minorities and black women who have given decades of tears and sweat to this party will suffer the most because of the feckless and weak leadership. See Primary every Democrat by the New Republic.

The asks Old and tired must step away and cede the fight to the next generation Form a shadow cabinet to keep tabs on various heads of institutions/departments Obstruct GOP legislation and or get significant concessions Blue states must find loopholes to claw back their contributions to the federal government and red states. Sue the US if you have to Gather a lethal legal team for activists and non-profits to criminally sue Musk and the other private citizens accessing/stealing our hard-earned money and data. Engage the Supreme Court over Trump's unconstitutional overreach
Communicate in REAL time how Project 2025 is being implemented Familiarize the public with the faces/names of Silicon Valley and cabinet billionaires harming Americans Reenroll the party heavyweights to mobilize and re-energize the base and Americans via independent media Kamala MUST come back and be central to the opposition. She did it fabulously during the debate Pete Buttigieg, Barack Obama, Hilary Clinton, Pritzker, Shapiro, Walz, Crockett, AOC, Garcia, Swawell, Bashear, Murphy, and Schatz are terrific

It’s a grave moment when Progressives to Reagan-style Republicans are dumbfounded and angry at the Democrats' idleness. Vichy Congress Leaders must resign their position. It’s not their god-given right, not an entitlement by seniority to be a Leader.
