There’s still time to call senators. Let me explain. Sorry not sorry about the cat. He’s also really upset about this deal.

Listen Kaine, Hassan, King, Cortez-Masto, Durbin, Shaheen, Rosen, and Fetterman. You're NOT gonna take away my 2025 election joy. We voted in that election for folks to FIGHT for us. That doesn't include YOU. YOU are what we voted AGAINST last Tuesday. So I'm gonna hang on to that.

My God, what a horrible, pitiful, defeatist, tone deaf, and just plain…WRONG thing to say. Retire now @SenAngusKing if that’s how you feel. Retire now and put someone else in your place who will stand up to the fascist in the White House.

Time for change in some high places in the Democratic Party if we are to meet the greater challenges of the moment in this country. My latest. www.thedailybeast.com/why-these-vi...

Hey Dems, what was the point? Really…what was the point? Me, last night on MSNBC. Have a watch.👇 www.msnbc.com/msnbc/watch/...

The university of Michigan released its consumer confidence index. US consumer confidence is at the lowest level since 1951. Trump tanked the economy in his first term! Is he’s doing it to us again?

5 yrs ago, he committed crimes trying to overthrow an American election. Last night, he pardoned all those who helped him try to overthrow the election. He’s an enemy of this country. He’s trying to erase Jan 6th. Don’t let him. Today’s show.👇 podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t...

In the most predictable development ever, Mike Johnson is not committing to hold a House vote on ACA subsidies

From coast to coast, Democrats scored huge blowout wins against Trump and the GOP this week. What does this mean for next year's midterms — and has Trump's failure to tackle affordability doomed him for good? Let's break it all down. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=azIm_JPnd9M

Fighting against Trump isn’t enough. It's time for Democrats to show America what they're fighting FOR — and embrace the fresh, new voices leading the way. This week was a good start. Here's what else they need to do. https://youtu.be/Uzc57eD3cWI?si=fLGGWBf468q4aacc

Democrats were overwhelmingly united on their shutdown demands. Americans understood that Trump and Republicans were to blame. Voters made it known last Tuesday that they'll elect leaders who stand up to Trump. Democrats held the cards — and folded for no reason.

Centrist Democrats in the Senate folded on the shutdown, throwing away their leverage in exchange for worthless GOP promises. When will they learn that there is no center between a government of oligarchs and a government of the people? https://youtu.be/EQzG_TrhyrY?si=LBXGJad9NjGyBGBo

Many Americans are hurting right now because of the shutdown, but caving to Republicans won’t end the hurt. Trump and his lapdogs continue to assert that they alone have the power to slash whatever programs they don’t like. Deals with this regime are meaningless.

Trump has pardoned Rudy Giuliani and other allies that worked to overturn the 2020 election. This isn’t the first time Trump has doled out pardons to his supporters. Watch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NflcWXdV-B0

The headlines missed it. The pundits missed it. But the pattern was right there in the vote: Small blocs run Washington.👇 www.jackhopkinsnow.com

Today is the 250th birthday of the Marine Corps. Parris Island Class of 1986.

The Senate “deal” reached yesterday isn’t a win. It’s a loss for millions of Americans who spent 40 days in limbo and now face higher health care costs and less support. We deserve a deal that helps us, not leaves us behind.

Twenty-nine sailors drowned when the Edmund Fitzgerald went down in the Great Lakes' icy waters on Nov. 10, 1975. The ship was immortalized in a surprise hit 1976 folk ballad by Gordon Lightfoot.

VAN SUSTEREN: Is the Republican healthcare solution going to go into effect at midnight on Dec. 31? Because people are gonna get sticker shock MIKE JOHNSON: We have November and December to work on it

Exactly right. Why should we respect a president who doesn’t respect the constitution he swore an oath to uphold?

Trump calls Erika Kirk over for a kiss.

NEW: Looks like Thune got around the unanimous consent problem, and the senate could vote TONIGHT on the FINAL shutdown deal, meaning the House would open Wednesday to take it up. Tell me if I'm reading this wrong...

She has to kiss his ass like this to save her job after the Sandwich Guy trial debacle. bsky.app/profile/atru...

The silver lining to the surrender by 8 Dems is that the House GOP must return to vote on it. Johnson must swear in Grijalva, and the discharge petition on the Epstein files must force a full floor vote. Stay tuned.

Since January, Trump's Treasury has quietly gutted enforcement of the corporate alternative minimum tax — a huge boon for big business and wealthy investors. Meanwhile, he's led an all-out assault on Medicaid, SNAP, and other programs that help the poor. Reverse Robin Hood.

Notebooks. Lots of notebooks. 🙄

🚨BREAKING: In a win for Wisconsin voters, a state judge vacated a ruling that would have forced election officials to conduct mass citizenship checks — a move voting rights advocates warned could have wrongly purged some citizens from the rolls. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

After voting to give billionaires tax breaks and making health care more expensive, Derrick Van Orden has refused to hold a town hall to talk to the voters he works for in a face-to-face conversation. So, I'm heading to Wisconsin to help give the people he's supposed to represent a voice.

The President wouldn't last five minutes as an air traffic controller, and after everything they've been through - and the way this administration has treated them from Day One - he has no business shitting on them now.

Speaker Johnson has literally said he's "not promising anyone anything." For once, I believe him.

From street marches to court battles to the ballot box - we’ve challenged the power of this exceptionally unpopular president. The lesson from each success we've had is that we need to ramp the political pressure up, always up, not back down, now more than ever.

Dems. Snatching defeat from the jaws of victory

The GOP bragged they’d never negotiate — that they didn’t need Democrats. Then they shut down the government, threw parties at Mar-a-Lago, and kept Congress on vacation while Americans missed paychecks. Polls were turning on them. open.substack.com/pub/adamkinz...

Even if the Senate voted to extend ACA subsidies, the GOP-controlled House is unlikely to allow a vote on them. And there's of course no guarantee that Trump would even go along with a deal. The cruel irony is that this will end up hurting Republican states the most.

Elon Musk’s bizarre $1 trillion pay package and Zohran Mamdani’s unlikely win together suggest that the unique form of harsh capitalism now practiced in America may be coming to an end. Some thoughts... https://robertreich.substack.com/p/musk-and-mamdani-the-end-of-harsh

As we kill each other Trump is using the moment to clear his most dangerous allies.

COLLINS: When Trump says grocery prices are down, what numbers is he basing that off given it's not true? HASSETT: Inflation is down C: But grocery prices are up H: Not everything. Egg prices are down. Why haven't you covered egg prices? C: We certainly have. But grocery prices are up about 1.4%

RFK Jr: "President Trump is revising the dietary guidelines which is gonna dramatically change the food culture in this country."

Republicans had predicted that Democrats would cave on the government shutdown as soon as the election was over because they were only keeping the standoff going to motivate their base.

Trump pardons Giuliani and other allies for trying to overturn the 2020 election. Since he can only grant clemency for federal crimes, the pardons will not protect them from state charges. @aliwatkins73.bsky.social @ashleyahn88.bsky.social @glennthrush.bsky.social www.nytimes.com/2025/11/10/u...

When it comes to affordability, "Trump risks being in a similar position as his predecessor, defending his record by pointing to statistics that don’t capture a troubling reality that many Americans are feeling," writes @ericalgj.bsky.social www.nytimes.com/2025/11/10/u...

When caregiving for a loved one, making self-care a priority can feel impossible. For your own wellbeing and that of the person you love, it is a practical necessity and a key to endurance. #Alzheimers #dementia #mentalhealth #quote
