Everyone is saying it. Literally everyone

The caucus meeting was just to orchestrate who would fall on the sword but not be up for a vote in 2026.

Guaranteeing a vote on extending the tax credits is not guaranteeing the tax credits. Snatching defeat from the jaws of victory. Did Tuesday night even happen?

rand paul is currently being a pain in the ass (laudatory) www.politico.com/live-updates...

oh man, so many things I needed to do tonight but been totally distracted by hating the Democratic party with every fiber of my being…

Apparently, it is negotiable!

Looks great! (Too bad for to be in NYC this week, but not next.) But I thought we learned today that this is now the way to promote things?

THAT IS ALREADY A LAW. TRUMP IS THE PRESIDENT WHO SIGNED THAT LAW. YOU ARE A FUCKING NEWS REPORTER

Sanders: That is a totally meaningless gesture. You can get 100 votes here and it won't mean anything because the House is not going to take it up.

BREAKING: BERNIE SANDERS: “If this resolution passes tonight, we are on our way to throwing 15 million Americans off of Medicaid and the affordable care act.”

Come to this event next week to learn about the transformative potential of municipal power!! because let’s be honest, right now NYC politics are the only politics that don’t make you want to vomit and/or die

BROOKLYN WE ARE GOING TO CHUCKS! Join us across from 9 PPW at 8:30 *tonight* Bring pots and pans, let’s make some noise about Chuck folding (again). Not another #SchumerSurrender @indivisible.org @riseandresist.bsky.social @50501newyork.bsky.social @handsoffnyc.bsky.social

Every fucking time there is a glimmer of hope that Democrats aren't the stupidest pack of lemmings ever to hold office, this hope is immediately dashed by Democrats being the stupidest pack of lemmings ever to hold office.

so disgusted and demoralized. whether it’s because they were cowards or because they didn’t truly oppose what the GOP is doing, the consequences are going to be absolutely devastating.

“I think it’s a terrible mistake,” Sen. Elizabeth Warren says of the deal. “People want us to stand and fight for health care, and that's what I believe.” (via Igor Bobic, HuffPo) x.com/igorbobic/st...

if everyone who is angry is dismissed as hopelessly naive, what the fuck are we even doing?

I mean Trump is being vilified over the SNAP thing, people are starting to find out what healthcare costs will skyrocket to, and the Dems just overwhelming won last Tuesday on affordability, if they can’t hold the line here there is legitimately no lone they could hold

If they cave, this will literally all have been their fault It is so unbelievably self-defeating even for them

Millions of Democratic voters on Tuesday: Fight these guys. Fight them. Senate Democrats: We heard you loud and clear and we will give in

seriously, how are they SO FUCKING BAD AT THIS?!?

more and more people are saying...

Shutting down the government is a big deal. People have been hurt in big ways as a result of the decision. To have that suffering be for nothing—to re-open the government without actually having protected people’s health insurance and economic well-being—is unconscionable.

i don't think democratic voters should have to spend this much time whipping democratic elected officials.

lol, Congressman Casten I was unfamiliar with your game

Senate Democrats voting to dismantle the ACA to avoid any problems with their Thanksgiving travel is tragically on brand.

I’m no great fan of the ACA. I believe we should guarantee health care as a human right through a single-payer Medicare for All system. But — at minimum — we cannot allow Republicans to destroy our already-broken system by doubling insurance premiums for 20 million Americans.

🚨 call script below! Schumer: 202-224-6542 Gillibrand: 202-224-4451 bsky.app/profile/matt...

downside: I may have more to do in the next 5 days than any 5 days I can remember upside: I only have to survive for 5 days

Call your senators. NOW.

you can't leave a message at the NY office, but you can at the Washington office (the number provided below)

Did ChatGPT tell the Democratic Party to kill itself??

Sounds like the squishes in the senate caucus are ready to pull the plug with no ACA changes. This is real. If you want to register your opinion you shld call yr senator in the next hour. They not only want to reopen w/nothing. They want cover from their colleagues who still want to hold out.

Trump enthusiastically cutting SNAP and people seeing their healthcare premiums skyrocket means he will be blamed. For the love of god @schumer.senate.gov & @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social hold the line. If you cave now, you caused a bunch of needless suffering and helped absolutely no one.

✅ transformative vision for the city ✅ elect a democratic-socialist mayor 🔲 learn more abt the levers of municipal power If you're a NYer missing that last piece, join us Nov 19 at CUNY Law for an event with @sandynurse.bsky.social & @ngusdorf.bsky.social lpeproject.org/events/local...

Does suddenly having a real progressive mayor make you wish you knew a little more about how city gov actually works?? You're in luck! Join us Nov 19th as we talk to @sandynurse.bsky.social & @ngusdorf.bsky.social abt the levers of local power!!! lpeproject.org/events/local...

i will repeat: this is psychological torture for SNAP recipients.

Israel is charging 20 years prison sentence for a 15 yr old US citizen throwing stones when no one was hurt or even hit. If any country other than Israel were doing this our politicians would be up in arms.

I don’t think that the liberal justice s can save us, that is not a commentary on them as human beings, but a structural critique of our system

will the audience in Iowa understand why my slides look like this? probably not, but I am writing at talk at 9:30 on a Saturday night and so I feel like amusing myself has got to take top priority

with a Mamdani Admin on the horizon, been learning a ton of local policy stuff and I have inadvertently become a person who offers “fun facts” about how municipal government/power works and recommends local policy podcasts at parties 🤓

Law Profs teaching First Amendment: I have put together a FREE, recently updated, and easy to use casebook for use in free speech classes. If you are interested in using such a casebook, send me an email or DM and I would be happy to share!

A must-read by @ngusdorf.bsky.social on how implementing Mamdani's agenda will "require a high degree of fiscal sobriety, paired with the recognition that these challenges are actually manageable — so long as we can collectively overcome our fear of taxes" jacobin.com/2025/11/mamd...
