Key word being "every nominee". He's still been against most of them
And has now been using more of their ability to delay nominations (though they cannot fully block without Republicans support)

Related note: There are some good vegan eggs out there to give a try!
If you want something that cooks and bakes like eggs there's stuff you can by like Just Egg
For baking there's a million things you can use that are pretty cheap. For instance, Aquafaba is the leftover water from cooking chickpeas or the water in the can if you buy it canned. Acts like egg whites and can be used as a binder for baking
Going to repost my comment from another crosspost of this:
They have already pledged to do similar?
First, I have made clear to House Republican leadership that any effort to steal taxpayer money from the American people, end Medicaid as we know it or defund programs important to everyday Americans, as contemplated by the illegal White House Office of Management and Budget order, must be choked off in the upcoming government funding bill, if not sooner.
And note that the dems only have power on this if republicans fight each other like last time. Reconciliation means it only requires a strict majority on spending bills (but can only be used a couple of times per year)

However, Trump doesn't generally seem to care about how much someone has helped him in the past if one minor slight shows up. If Musk can't help him at this very instance, he'd be open to throwing him under the bus. He abandons people fast
Added that to the title now
Then don't make it easy for them. Make them have to take the time to revoke everything rather than just letting them go on to the next person
Resistance doesn't mean winning every fight, but to delay, delay, delay everywhere you can. The more time they have to spend putting up with you is less time they can spend messing with other people who can fight back during that whole time
Do note that elections are run at the state level - including for federal office. There are still state & local attorney generals to pursue cases, though obviously would be better to keep the federal government doing investigations too
This is also to say to make sure to vote in those local and statewide races. They are a critical path of resistance. They are still happening, and they are still winnable. Some states have elections this year, with a few states even having a couple regional / local elections this Tuesday
A week ago, Dems pull off an upset win in a deep red state senate seat in Iowa. Don't assume your district is guaranteed to go any way
Fetterman is inconsistent. He sometimes votes the right way. Other times doesn't. There's still issues he can be pressured on
Remind him that you'd support a primary challange to him
Some dems have recently pledged to block unanimous consent for nominations, but I haven't heard about quorum calls
Call your senators and tell them that to do that if either/both are dems! They've been starting to put up a lot more of a fight recently after more and more people have been calling
If either/both are Republicans, call them and tell them to vote no for the nominees
Call them and keep up the pressure then. They have been getting a flood of calls these past few days and notably have started to really up thier action in turn
There are tons of lawsuit going on right now about that too. They tend to all get much less press than the actions he's taking
One lawsuit was even filed about DOGE one minite into his second term
Here's a lawsuit tracker
