Boom.

Rep. Eric Swalwell

Can everyone all at once tell
@SusanSarandon
to sit this one out? She’s caused enough trouble. Us real progressives will take it from here.

Susan Sarandon
@SusanSarandon
🙄
A lot of good that did in 2020.

Dems are going to use this to fundraise and get you to vote for them again despite sitting on their hands for the last two years. Instead of actually standing for anything, their only strategy is scaring you into voting blue.

[cate94]

1. She has proved

Herself to be a fucking idiot.

[Dave says]

2. I agree

[Cha]

3. Thank YOu, Cate!💙

💙💛

[agingdem]

12. Sarandon is an aging actress...

she hasn't lost her looks so much as she's lost her fucking mind...and I will say this..Sarandon, a malignant Hillary-hating wannabe socialist and Mel Gibson, a Trump-saluting virulent anti-semite, are different sides of the same coin...and the reigning queen and king of Shit For Brains...

[Cha]

51. +1!! TY!

💙💛

[aurora the great]

65. Thank you

The largest laugh I had all day. Thank you for that I know, I know its not funny. But I desperately needed this one, so, thankyou!

[Dorian Gray]

53. I agree she should sit this out

she's an idiot, and she's digging in to an unwinnable argument.

Things are worse now because Hillary didn't win. That's a fact.

And no matter what she points out about Tim Kaine or anything else, things will always be worse now bc Hillary didn't win.

[Cha]

75. Thank You!

💙💛

[applegrove]

4. Has she no regrets about 2016? One would have thought she might have

learnt something from backing an independent.

[Cha]

8. She didn't .. she's not sorry.. only in the

sense that she's pathetic.

💙💛

[inthewind21]

60. Better question

Did the people who listened to her and voted based on what she said have any regrets?

[OAITW r.2.0]

5. Useful Idiot.

Too bad, Intelligent with no political IQ.

[Lunabell]

6. She's useless.

Makes a few stupid statements every once in a while, then crawls back into her hiding place. Bernie Bro on estrogen.

[AlexSFCA]

7. She is a good actress but incredibly dumb, to the point I can't even hold it against her

[sheshe2]

9. Who?

[Cha]

20. Someone who likes to RF Democracy..

That's all I know.

Mahalo, she💙

💙💛

[MontanaMama]

10. The Twitter thread is ghastly.

Lots of support for Sarandon….I’m sure some are bots but it is still unsettling to witness the cognitive dissonance.

[maryellen99]

15. I wouldn't be surprised if she voted for trump both times nt

[Cha]

17. It's a Gaslit Cult.. they love the Gaslight..

They had a big bloody hand in enabling trump & Fascism into the WH. 💙

Thank Goodness for those who call out this Stupid RF Shit. Thank YOu, Rep Swalwell!

Aloha, MontanaMama!

💙💛

[MontanaMama]

21. Yea! The G in GOP

stands for Gaslight, right?

Aloha Cha!

[Cha]

31. That's right.. Now it Does! TY!

Mahalo! 💙 :

💙💛

[wnylib]

41. Gaslighting Old Perps

[AZSkiffyGeek]

19. Taking time out from complaining that Nina Turner was robbed nt

[Cha]

22. Aww.. The Voters Wanted Rep Shontel Brown..

Reelected.. They wanted the Dem

💙💛

[Cha]

46. Starting the RF early to set

up NT's run for POTUS when she can't even win a House seat?

💙💛

[spooky3]

11. I get furious about the lack of civics and arithmetic skills in

comments like hers.

Someone needs to hand her a list of all the bills passed in Pelosi’s Congress. Then explain we must have at least 51 votes in the Senate on a few bills (and we often can’t count on two of those votes), and 60 votes in most of them, which we have no hope of getting due to Republican obstructionism. 60-47 is 13 more seats that must go to Democrats. That is why Swalwell says to Vote Blue.

Honestly, she and like minded people are willfully stupid.

[betsuni]

37. The belief that righteous "fighting" spirit magically conquers all.

That if Democrats can't things done it's not because they don't have the votes, because they don't want to: don't fight, stand for nothing, don't stop Republicans, both sides.

Like reality show competition contestants thinking they deserve to win because they are more passionate and determined than anyone else. But that's not how things work.

When emotion beats thinking.

In 2022, still thinking both sides are the same!

[spooky3]

39. +1

[sheshe2]

90. This

[Cha]

69. She does Not care one whiff, Spooky..

Her goal is to burn down the Dem party so she can be Queen of the RFs.

Mahao💙

💙💛

[spooky3]

70. Yeah, that's happening soon.

Cha!

[Cha]

71. lol

💙💛

[DanieRains]

13. Susan If You Didn't Vote For Or Support Hillary

You helped TFG win.

Go back under your gilded rock.

I am one post away from losing my account so I won't say more.

[Cha]

73. TY.. I feel the same, DanieRains

💙💛

[leftstreet]

14. Why would he call attention to her statements?

I don't get that

[Celerity]

24. agreed, she is a troll and trolls only thrive when fed

[herding cats]

36. Even considering her massive following and their outreach?

I respect you and much you say, but I'm not sure you're correct here.

This was a framework for many of us in 2016 and it backfired on us spectacularly.

Should we or should we not call these people out on their obvious attempts to undermine us? I'm inclined to say we should.

[Celerity]

40. I admit I did not see that she had went after him first (I did not click on the tweet), so I retract

[herding cats]

47. Fair enough. I'd already seen it and knew beforehand.

Yes, she was the provocateur. She instigated, he rebutted. It's not as if he follows her and sought the interaction out. That would be weird, I agree.

That's how social media works and we need to do as he did. Chop it off and be frank. No pulled punches and say what needs to be said without any extra drama.

[Cha]

48. Mahalo Cat.. I didn't even know she

was stupid enough to question Rep Eric Swalwell with her Gaslit Lies.

💙💛

[herding cats]

34. Old rules no longer apply.

It's a much bigger world and anyone with enough followers has a voice. He did the right thing here She needs to be cut off at the knees now before she gains traction with her bullshit. Now we fight these people where they stand (post) and that's how we beat them.

You can't ignore the elephant in the room, and social media is a massive room with a huge ass elephant trying to stomp the shit out of us.

[Cha]

49. Amen & Hallelujah! 🤷‍♂️💙

💙💛

[herding cats]

56. Hi, Cha!

Good to see you!

[Cha]

62. You, too.. and doing your thing! TY!💙

💙💛

[herding cats]

74. I know you know I love you, right?

My dear friend, you make me feel relevant. ❤️

[Cha]

76. That's because.. you

Are!💙 Love to you, Cat🤷‍♂️💕😊

💙💛

[herding cats]

82. I'm like gnat...

Just when you think it's safe to open that bottle of wine... I show up.

[Cha]

83. Lol! And Everyone's Glad

You do!🍀🐬🎈🍷🌻🍯🌺🎊🎉

[brer cat]

52. Exactly, herding cats.

Good to see you.

[herding cats]

57. Good to see you, too!

[Scrivener7]

78. YES!!!

[sheshe2]

91. Great post.

[herding cats]

94. Hey, hi!

How are you? How's your life going?

I think of you all the time and I dearly hope you're well and happy. My love to you, kind woman ❤️

No need to reply. Just know you're in my heart and thoughts. ❤️

[Bev54]

16. This is exactly why I am not on twitter, I could not hold back on this.

[herding cats]

79. If you're there or not wars are being waged and people are fighting them.

A caveat: I hate social media. It's not my groove. Yet every time I get a notification from Twitter the obvious Russian bot I alerted on was banned, I feel vindicated. I made I tiny-tiny bit of difference that day.

In the grand scheme I'm not doing anything worth noticing, but if I take out 20 a month I feel good. I know it's a finite thing, and soon I'll have zero power there. But, right this moment, I do and I weld it as much as I can.

We're all different and we do what we can where we can. We're all valuable in different ways. ❤️

[Bev54]

80. It must be a bit like your name, herding cats! lol

[herding cats]

81. Most definitely.

It was by design in my choosing.

Thank you! You made me smile tonight! I love it when someone gets me. ❤️

[BigmanPigman]

18. Does anyone still listen to her ignorant BS?

Susan, just shut the fuck up you blithering idiot.

[wryter2000]

26. I can't even watch her movies.

At least Jill Stein isn't in my face.

[BigmanPigman]

28. Me too! I make sure to miss them when they are rerun on TV.

I can't get past her politcal BS.

[Cha]

67. I can't even stand to see her smug

self-righteous, RF face.. she has blood on her hands.

💙💛

[Cha]

50. Apparently she has a huge

following of suckers who eat up her lies about our Dem Party.:

💙💛

[Baked Potato]

23. She is very out of touch with reality and is allowing

herself to be used.

Her cheap shots and ignorant scoldings of Democrats are an indication she believes we are all too stupid to not know how Congress really functions.

[wryter2000]

25. She's utterly shameless

And totally lacking in self-awareness. She has that in common with Republicans.

[TheBlackAdder]

85. Her political trolling is the ONLY way she gets recognition. Kind of reminds me of this. . .

Dickie Roberts: Former Child Star
Dickie Roberts (Nicholas Schwerin) is a very young actor who shot to fame on a 1970s television sitcom called The Glimmer Gang with his spoonerism catchphrase "This is Nucking Futs!". His career subsequently halted in the years following the show's cancellation.

Unable to find another acting gig due to his eccentric habits, a now older Dickie (David Spade) has been reduced to parking cars at a Morton's restaurant and appearing on Celebrity Boxing, where he suffers a humiliating first-round defeat to Emmanuel Lewis. In the public eye and to his girlfriend Cyndi (Alyssa Milano), who leaves him on the roadside after a car problem, Dickie is a washed-up loser.

[herding cats]

27. I'm with Rep Swalwell here 100%

Sarandon is a part of the problem, not the solution. There's no easy out and sadly a lot of people who follow her are just flat out lazy and want a unicorn to come stick it's magical horn in the reflecting pond and make everything rainbows and butterflies in DC. No work, no reality involved in their mythical solutions. Someone elected should fix it for them right fucking now because that's what they want done. They can't equate actions with consequences.

[Cha]

30. Yeah, too lazy to look up the facts of

who are on the Front Lines Fighting Against Fascism.. too Lazy to even care.

News Flash for them.. Sarandon is Not their Fucking Unicorn.

Apologies to Unicorns Everywhere!

Mahalo & Aloha, Cat💙

💙💛

[dchill]

29. Less Than Zero.

[iemanja]

32. What a steaming piece of shit she is

[LetMyPeopleVote]

33. Here's Sarandon dis-ing the Dems and doing her best not criticize Trump before the 2018 primaries.

Typical gadfly purist.

[betsuni]

38. K&R

[Cha]

44. Mahalo, betsuni!

💙💛

[ffr]

43. I hope this is the last Susan Saradon tween I waste my life reading.

I'm done with her and her surrendering and demonizing kind. Fuck her!

TY, Cha!

[Cha]

45. I read Rep Swalwell's excellent reply first.

and I forced myself to read her tweet because I was thinking about posting.. then when I read hers.. I knew I Had to post it!

Her RF Stupidity needs to be Exposed Far and Wide.

YW, frr.. btw it was my 276,000 post.. .. I like that!

You're Welcome, frr!💙

💙💛

[FreepFryer]

54. It must be really stressful for these folks to no longer have Russia Today to rely on (Nt)

[honest.abe]

55. Such profound ignorance.

[Cha]

68. It's call3d Gaslighting for RF..

💙💛

[calimary]

58. Um, Susan, REPUBLICANS are the ones "scaring you into voting blue."

The GOP worldview and wannabe dominance of women and the GOP’s hard-on for a stranglehold on power - THAT’S what’s gonna be “scaring you into voting blue.”

[JCMach1]

59. This must be the rw troll farm marketing msg for the day

I have seen the same idea in several places... Sarandon has become a RW tool

[Cha]

72. Thanks for your post, JCMach

💙💛

[mcar]

61. "She's caused enough trouble."

Well said, Congressman.

[Cha]

63. I was just thinking about that..

that's putting it mildly but Rep Eric Swalwell get his point across.. and not "good trouble".. Fascism in the WH "Trouble"!

Thank You, mcar!💙
💙💛

[ismnotwasm]

64. Jesus she's such an asshole.

Think I’ll go watch Rocky Horror Picture Show and remember better feelings toward her.

[Cha]

66. Someone on this thread said

these were the RW talking points going around.

I Don't even like looking at her picture after all this shit she's caused our Democracy.



💙💛

[Scrivener7]

77. Good God! She is so DUMB, it hurts.

[Cha]

87. What are you talking about?! Rep Swalwell

knows Exactly What he's saying..

Susan Fucking Sarandon is a Gaslit Liar who RF Democracy..

And, she engaged him first.. he's replying.. so the one who should be "Embarrassed" if she weren't such a sociopath is Sarandon.

[Cha]

89. Sarandon is a Big Blowhard Rat Fucker..

💙💛

[Nixie]

92. Gaslit liar blowhard ratfucker is exactly right, Cha!

And to anyone else who wants to call lies about my party bullying…deal with it! Lies, smears and false narratives are NOT tolerated anymore. You will be put out on front street so too bad. No more!

Great thread, Cha! Swalwell is right in calling out the manipulative messaging!

[Cha]

93. And, Sarandon started it by tweeting

him first with her Gaslit Lies.. herding cats reported it in a post above.. So Rep Swalwell was calling out her Lies.

Mahalo, Nixie!

💙💛
