Commander Fox headcanon:

Is very expressive. Nobody notices because he goes to deal with business like 99% of the time with his helmet on, until that one time every clone's gear had to get spot-checked and he had to go to a meeting as security detail without it. The senator who was giving the presentation was shocked by the face he made. Safe to say, Fox was not amused nor interested at said speech. He looked very interested during Senator Chuchi's one, though.

Trump is super mad about basically everything right now and is now telling Senators they can't go on vacation until his bill passes. (Which I don't think he has the right to do, but it's a sign of his blustering toddler despot energy right now). Republican Senators are complicit and/or little scared babies so none of them are telling him to fuck off like a grown ass adult should when spoken to like that.

Most of them do not like this bill but they are cowards. NONETHELESS. Keep calling them. Every day. Especially the ones up for re-election next year, and especially in tight races.

And just throw shit out and see what works. Joni Ernst now has a Dem veteran running against her specifically because she's so awful and he is very popular already. Nathan Sage? I think. Mention him.

Susan Collins is VERY aware of the several strong Dem challengers popping up now to challenge her. She keeps sort of waffling (on brand for her) about maybe not running next year.

Thom Tillis is so, so, so aware of how much those Medicaid cuts are going to devastate his state of North Carolina. Push that fucking button. (He printed out little handouts about it to hand out in the Senate as if the other Republican Senators care about his state or him.)

Rand Paul says he won't vote on it. Encourage that. Even if his reasons are not about compassion.

Lisa Murkowski claims to be a scared little bunny. And she might be. She opposes the cuts but might vote for them anyway (scared little bunny). Press her not to.

Ron Johnson claims it doesn't have a chance of passing but keep calling him anyway.

Stuff like that. Mike Lee is probably going to vote yes on the whole bill, but he was harassed into walking back his support for the sale of public lands (for now). (Though it helps that the Senate Parliamentarian threw it out first, I believe.)

Also mention that the House Republicans are begging the Senate the toss out or change certain provisions because they now regret voting for it (but want the Senate to do their jobs for them. Weak ass bitches.)

You could also potentially mention how LOW Trump's numbers are on every single issue. His hold is tenuous. If they wanted to, they could break it and be heroes. (I mean not really but depending on the person, flattery works.)

Oh. And some people have started calling it The Murder Bill.

You do not need to live in a Senator's state to call that senator, though they will likely listen more to someone who is and who makes that clear. But what you want to do is point to actions you are preparing to take if they vote yes. Such as supporting another candidate with actual action and money. They are hoping people will forget by next year but oh no, Americans are paying attention now and we are organizing.

Trump might primary them but... he's gonna primary some of them anyway. And even if he does, the people are also gonna move votes away from them.

I've also been asking if they want this to be their legacy, voting for the murder bill that is going to devastate America for generations. Especially with the older Senators. lol We know how to edit wikipedia. They don't.
