"House Democrats stand united for a four-week funding extension that stops harmful cuts, keeps government open, and allows Congress to reach a bipartisan funding agreement. I am ready to vote today, tomorrow or Friday to pass a four-week extension," a social media post made by dozens of Democratic lawmakers read on Thursday.
"You can see the ridiculous political puppet show for what it really is," Elon Musk, who is leading cost-cutting efforts at the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), wrote in a post on X in response to the identical posts shared by EndWokeness. "They are just actors reading a script."
"This is the 2025 version of 'Live by the promise of the hashtag,'" Republican commentator Matt Whitlock said. "Dems are so tacky."
Joe Concha, a Fox News contributor, deemed Democrats the "cut-and-paste party."
Dingell told Fox News Digital why Democrats decided to make the same social media post.
"House Democrats shared the same message because we are all unified and ready to keep the government open in a way that serves the American people," the congresswoman said in a statement.
"Democrats' synchronized puppet show is embarrassing and doomed to fail," NRCC spokesperson Ben Petersen told Fox News Digital. "Vulnerable House Democrats abandoned their spines and marched like lemmings off a cliff voting for a government shutdown."
The message comes as part of a new trend by Democratic lawmakers to post coordinated content to social media.
Fox News Digital reached out to the House Democratic Caucus for comment.
The synchronized "S--- That Ain't True" mashup saw at least 22 Democratic Senators repeating the same statement in unison. "Since day one of Donald Trump's presidency, prices are up, not down. Inflation is getting worse, not better. Prices of groceries, gas, housing, rent, eggs - they're all getting more expensive. Meanwhile, Donald Trump has done nothing to lower costs for you," the Democrats, including senators Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., and Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., said in the video.
Jeremy Hunt, a media fellow at the Hudson Institute, recently told Fox News that Democrats are "lost at sea" with their messaging.
