Lost in coverage of the Democratic capitulation on the #shutdown and the extension of #ACA credits is the fact that Democrats seem also early on to have also folded on demands for undoing the huge GOP cuts to Medicaid. So really a total surrender on health care.

A TRILLION dollar bonus for Elon Musk??! If you split a trillion dollars evenly among AFA members, every member would get $500,000. And Tesla wants to give it to ONE MAN? Hell no. The good news is, we can stop him from ever getting it. #NoTrillionaires! actionnetwork.org/event_campai...

Leaders of all Blue states should follow the example of NJ Gov-elect Sherrill in blasting the proposed government-shutdown surrender put forward by craven Dem senators.

Not an overstatement to say this horrific #deal kills any hope of Dems retaking Congress next year. It’s a total middle finger to all who’ve tried to make that happen. Trump Administration Live Updates: Senate Moves to Vote as Democratic Defectors Relent on Shutdown www.nytimes.com/live/2025/11...

Congratulations Mississippi Democrats for your great victories and your hard work! You are an inspiration.

Since Donald Trump is both ignorant and a liar, it’s hard to know if he actually thinks all socialists are by definition communists.

As of this moment, still no statement from King Donald about the death of Dick Cheney. Silence is probably as far as the Hater-in-Chief comes to praising someone who failed to show deference to him.

Great essay by #Colin Woodward that clearly articulates a key dividing line in our cultural wars, as well as the real danger of allowing the JD Vance vision of America to take hold. Opponents of JD Vance’s Story of America Need to Speak Up www.nytimes.com/2025/11/03/o...

It's time "Trump Derangement Syndrome" is redefined to describe Republicans so deranged by their adoration of Trump that they are incapable of ever, ever finding fault with him.

“The people want what is good, but they do not always see it.” -Jean-Jacques Rousseau, as quoted in Ruth Scurr’s “Fatal Purity.” Seems relevant for today.

Whether it's Staten Island Republicans screaming racist epithets at Zohran Mamdani or Manhattan Democrats bringing up Andrew Cuomo's history of sexual harassment and nursing home deaths, both sides have pushed the boundaries of civil political discourse.

Imagine if then President Biden jetted off to Asia in the midst of a government shutdown. Republicans would have howled like jackals and the press would have proclaimed it an enormous political blunder.

Can you have a democracy when the leader of the country does not believe it?

If Trump thinks his #ballroom is a legitimate project, why would he fund it with private dollars? Isn’t that an acknowledgment that there is no public benefit?

So well said.

Since Trump failed to get regulatory approvals before demolishing the #East Wing, would that make it easier for a future law-abiding (i.e Democratic) president to simply demolish his stupid ballroom as an illegal structure?

I am not a proselytizer, but in the case of the World Series I feel we should all root for the Canadian team (apologies to Dodger fans).

I get that they want to suck up to King Trump and care nothing about democracy, but did the leaders of Apple, META, Google, etc. truly have zero compunction about supporting his destruction of the #East Wing and the asinine ballroom plan? Like really WTAF is the matter with these people?

Ultra-selfish, arrogant, greedy, gutless, unprincipled, amoral, fascist enablers, just out and out slime. Hard to come up with words that convey the depths of depravity of these mega-monolith tech companies. Thank you, The Hill, for your great reporting.

The replacement of the #East Wing with an ugly ballroom is a perfect metaphor of the Trump presidency not just because it’s illegal and reckless, but because it’s being launched with zero public input or engagement. L’etat c’est moi. The White House Wrecking Ball www.nytimes.com/2025/10/22/u...

Why does everyone keep calling it “The Epstein Ballroom?” Please stop repeating “The Epstein Ballroom” because it is not called “The Epstein Ballroom!” Don’t tell the news that it’s called “The Epstein Ballroom” and please don’t repost this!!!!!

Democrats need a young candidate for President because it’s going to take at least two terms to undo the disaster of the #Trump presidency. I mean we will need the equivalent of the Marshall Plan to repair the damage wrought by these luddites.

I think we will need a nationwide exorcism to wash out our brains of Trump toxin if and when this madness ends.

Love this idea. Thank you, Tonga.

Are #ICE agents working without pay during the Trump shutdown?

Basically President Trump has declared war on #fishermen and women. First he blows up boats in #Venezuela, then Colombia. Will he be blowing up Greenland, Danish, and Canadian boats?

One thing that seems missing in the coverage and commentary on Trump's assault on democracy is the total absence of any effort by the Trump administration to seek public input or buy-in for any of all the things they are doing. I mean they don't even go through the motions of building consensus.
