it's really insane how much the senate hates their jobs and their life

"We voted with Republicans to pass a funding bill that gave us nothing otherwise they would have eliminated the filibuster and passed a funding bill that gave us nothing" jesus christ man

it's so funny how deeply hurt the podsave/obama universe people are by not being accepted here while bill kristol and george conway posts do numbers

massively inflating revenue and shorting expenses and still hemorrhaging money lmao

I gotta say House Democrats releasing a shit ton of JE emails that have nothing to do with Trump, but absolutely burn a ton of the worst guys you know is fucking based

Seth Moulton is a bitch, but unlike a lot of Dems he at least has some self-awareness about where the political winds are blowing and is moving his sails

If we had a supreme court that cared about the law, I would add this chart combined with coffee tariff relief coming as evidence that the entire national security argument is legal horseshit

Libs got mad dog in the divorce www.mediaite.com/media/sports...

The Trump stuff is obvious and doesn't come as a surprise, but woof, Michael Wolff should be crucified

love to see ol don wriggle his way out of this one

no

Fetterman switching parties makes it much more likely for Dems to hold the seat given there won't be a primary against an "incumbent" and he's for SURE getting primaried from the right as a Republican may actually go out more embarrassing than Sinema who at least quit

It's so funny how they rode to victory on the backs of treatlers and then immediately believed they could just tell them the economy was awesome despite everything being markedly worse than the conditions they won with

Whatever you feel about foreign policy towards Israel, hearing "devoted to Israel" from an American politician is fucking weird.

I'd rather have Newsom and I fucking hate Newsom.

A lot of politics people on this website correctly peg the regime and the GOP for what they are but also keep this delusion going where politics of pre-2024 should just continue without any reconciliation between the two. Total cognitive dissonance born from fear.

Democrats cannot keep continuing to tell people they want to work with Republicans to pass legislation to benefit America and run against the party for being lawless and authoritarian Like you can't. You just can't.

Preferably I would like for them to decline to be a participant in giving legitimacy to a lawless regime if you're the minority party and you can't do anything thems the breaks, but bipartisanship with a party that has essentially killed the Republic isn't a coherent argument

don't worry you don't need to get your sports commentary from ESPN, you can choose from any number of independent pundits who are all sponsored by either draftkings or fanduel

my boomer relatives on veterans day, a tradition unlike anyother

Good to know everything in America is going so well the President has the time to call into Pat McAfee's show

Complete and total ban on the word "fighting" unless you literally cane someone on the senate floor

The libs are tearing Marc Elias a new asshole for defending Schumer, the vibes have shifted I repeat the vibes have shifted

I think an interesting question that should be posed to Democrats is: "Is there anything he could do that would make you shut down the government indefinitely?" Violating SCOTUS? Ripping up Posse Comitatus? Federal abortion ban?

Right, it's not an easy decision but if you are serious about combatting the descent into autocracy but don't want people to feel the material pain of resistance to it, that's just permission to be in the " well the trains run on time" mindset

this is a senior sec eng role description lmao

Literally nobody is going to care if the explanation is "James Bond isn't his legal name you morons. Anyone can be James Bond".

Yeah the spin that the great win was RIF reversal(which was their fault) and a vote on the ACA subsidies is just horseshit. Just say you bluffed and they called it

Calling Noah Smith an economist is like calling Joe McCarthy a former judge

the 40 year house majority run for Dems is just absolutely wild will never see anything like that again, probably nothing more than 4 for a majority

That's the tell they all approved

Trump is going to have to pardon an unbelievable amount of people

The hemp industry is absolutely massive in a lot of non-legal MJ GOP states. I don't think it will move the needle with federal politics unless Rand goes Indy or something, but it's going to upend state level politics in places like Florida and Texas

It's infuriating how Dems keep losing to this man but hilarious that he absolutely refuses to let them hold their Ls for any amount of time

16 Democrats are for closing the hemp loophole? Good lord we are cooooooked

I've felt like I've heard him enough recently to have noticed the slurring or has this been really recent? Because man that's bad

Honestly the Democrats who think this is politics as usual deserve to watch their former colleagues get frog marched to jail by the DOJ for the crime of mean tweets

I'm not sure how some people claim to take the existential threat of this regime seriously but also argue that the opposition must not come with any material downsides.

There needs to be sacrificial lamb. If Schumer really doesn't have much power as the leader than it shouldn't matter if he goes so long as the replacement can fundraise. Easiest way to message that the caucus wasn't in on this is firing the man in charge, even if it wasn't his fault.

Senate Dems: "While our soul hurts our conscious is clean knowing that we were able to mitigate harm" Rand Paul: "Planes can drop on the Capitol building I don't give a fuck, don't touch my hemp"

My biggest gripe with the folders right now is if you didn't have it in you to go the distance you should have never shut down the government. I get the choice they made as it was truly a trolly problem, but that problem existed because of your choices. They called your bluff and you need to go

Oh man Republicans being responsible for nuking hemp derived cbd/thc products nationwide may turn Texas blue

LMAO

If the GOP is blocking healthcare then why did you cave for a healthcare vote you know won't pass? Like all this does is reinforce the fact that if you were never prepared to go the distance, you should have never shut down the government. You should have just passed the clean CR!

Oh my god that destroys your entire argument about the pain of furloughs and SNAP cuts!!!!! You had to cave because people are hurting but you wanted ACA subsidies to expire as leverage play for 2026? FUUUUUUUUCKKKKKK

I get the logic of "starving children overrule healthcare insurance cost spikes" but what happens when they're held hostage for a national abortion ban? Contraception ban? The return of DOMA?

REVEILLE REVEILLE REVEILLE

Congrats to the eight Democrats who gave this regime a huge win over the weekend. Here’s your reward. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/10/u...

rah

I mean maybe you can make this argument about Americans but they didn't give a fuck about Gaza, which is a not so insignificant reason they're facing the trolly problem with snap and aca subsidies
