Going Live now. Join me to vent/share frustrations over Centrist Dems CAVING for a MAGA inshallah that will never happen and throwing Americans under the bus for the airline industry. thelefthook.substack.com No paywalls. All are welcome, even hater.

Never forget who sold us out: Hassan King Cortez-Masto Shaheen Kaine Fetterman Durbin Rosen

I don’t care if Schumer voted no. If he’s unable to wrangle the caucus, he’s not an effective leader. I’ll continue to push for the caucus to elect a new one.

Thanks to @mostmuscle.bsky.social www.opensecrets.org/orgs/america...

Remember when some of us said the Democratic leadership would take all the wrong lessons from the blue tsunami and squander all the goodwill? Here you go.

thank you for calling out @schumer.senate.gov and his absolute COWARDICE and INABILITY to keep democrats from doing the right & ONLY thing tonight we mobilized, fund raised, canvassed, protested...all for WHAT?

Democrats won't create the lasting change or tap into the rage of the majority with Schumer and Jeffries in the lead. Centrists won't get it done, no matter how the establishment wills it. The country has radically shifted. The last 10 years is your evidence.

80% of Democratic voters want a new leader in the Senate. Does that matter at all to Democratic senators?

Democrats who cave to fascist republicans and normalize their chaos, crimes, corruption and immoral agendas aren’t Democrats, they are cowardly traitors who need to be fired from office.

A reminder - last March, republicans promised to restore $1.1B in funding to DC in exchange for funding the government, and Mike Johnson never took it up in the House.

going for a run. too pissed off right now utterly shameful what we're seeing right now 💢💢💢

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

talk about disenfranchising your own voters i think the majority of us on here have all been working in some capacity to elect democrats believing they would represent us what's happening right now is a capitulation to not only the republicans but corporate interests truly...f*&k is all i can say

Bernie Sanders: "What this Senate is about to do is make a horrific situation even worse. So let's be clear what this vote is about. If this vote succeeds, over 20 million Americans are gonna see at least a doubling in their premiums in the ACA."

There will be hell to pay for Democrats supporting this.

Republicans are going to laugh at Democrats and do nothing on healthcare. They will continue helping Trump fulfill Project 2025. Dems learn nothing.

Schumer put the nail in his own coffin and the Democratic Leadership. It's done. Just a matter of time. Ditto Centrists. They have misread the moment and the rage of the people. Trump and MAGA will continue playing them because they know they are weak.

and way to try and do this vote on a sunday...hoping most americans won't be paying attention nah! dems will remember the 10 senators who are betraying us - ESP right after a positive week of wins for democrats pretty pissed off right now having to see this happen

💯 he knew he had the 10 votes to get this passed, and he could then vote NO to limit the 'damage' coming his way sorry SCHUMER, the outrage against your bullsh*t isn't going to stop

I didn’t fight this hard to get to get on the right side of the messaging during this shutdown just to have Democrats capitulate.. If Schumer thought he was unpopular before, he hasn’t seen shit yet..

Sanders trying to delay the vote

An agreement to agree to do a later vote is NOT an enforceable contract so what in the actual hell are Americans getting out of this deal??

I've looked at all the details of this deal to end the shutdown reached by a small group of Senate Democrats. I've talked to a number of friends on the Hill to see if there's anything I'm missing. Sadly, I am not. This is a shit deal. It's a betrayal. It's cowardice.

If Schumer is voting no, then who put this deal together?

Was the thought process going into this that Dem voters would be satisfied with an appearance of resistance? That we would say, well, you guys tried really hard & we give you an A for effort? Because my opinion is that performative drama is the MAGA brand, it should not be ours.

They are probably going to have to read it pretty loud.

The Democrats who caved just taught Republicans that using mass starvation as a weapon works.

Democrats have to stop bailing out Republicans from facing the consequences of their own policies. And yeah, that means they have to stop sparing voters from experiencing what GOP government truly means. Every time Dems step in, it only emboldens the GOP & they make it even worse the next time.

How long will we be hijacked by centrists, cowards and Chuck Schumer?

one thing about this ESPN blackout on youtube TV...disney is overplaying their hand i cancelled ESPN UNLIMITED after disney #FA 'ed with jimmy kimmel - but i have ZERO desire to watch ◌ pat mcafee ◌ stephen a smith both spew idiotic opinions for clickbait 🧵 www.theverge.com/news/817403/...

Hold the line.

too bad it was only 2 minutes...they should've booed him until he left on his own

remember this 🍊 a*&hole is trying to force the #NFL & #commanders to agree to name the stadium after HIM PEDOPHILE ARENA i mean, i guess if he wants to continue seeing images of him getting booed every game weekend...go f*&king ahead sick of this LYING SACK OF SH*T

Sen Dems: OK, we'll vote to open the government if all promise to give us a vote on health-care in the future. Sen Repubs: (to each other "omg this is like taking candy from a baby") Yes deal!!! Sen Dems: You guys promise? We are trusting you Sen Repubs: Would we ever lie to you 😉

DO NOT CAVE!

Trump getting booed at the Commanders game

Chuck fucked US.

Schumer and the Dems are about to teach Trump the lesson that they’ll cave whenever he abuses power to sufficiently hurt people.

Democrats can't defeat Trump-MAGA authoritarianism without an agenda that stands squarely on the side of working people. We need a pro-worker, pro-democracy, anti-establishment movement that will take on oligarchy like never before. It starts with the party rejecting Big Money.

an important interview from @jimacosta.bsky.social with @carolleonnig.bsky.social & @byaaroncdavis.bsky.social the book goes into detail around the many steps that merrick garland took during the various investigations into 🍊 🧵 youtu.be/AVgwMO1fnVM

KAROlyin' wouldn't know what the TRUTH is if it hit in her on the head calling BBC 'fake news' is beyond parody makes me sick that americans have to see her face on TV LYING with INSANE STUPIDITY layered on top of it a grotesque & incompetent human being 🤮 www.theguardian.com/media/2025/n...

good. continue to call out bad behavior yes the #dodgers won no, i didn't watch and gave up my tickets as a former lifelong fan the team's bullsh*t NEAR silence over #ICE when a majority of the fanbase is latino have no doubt they will go to the WH again 💢💢💢 www.theguardian.com/sport/2025/n...

1,000 flights cancelled just yesterday b/c of 🍊's GOVT SHUTDOWN at a time so many of us are excited to head into thanksgiving, some of us will have to cancel plans as airlines will likely raise prices to make up for their shortfall this is 💯 on 🍊 www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

2 months of the consumer price index data not being compiled and reported you can be SURE 🍊 would have ordered the report to be published if the data was good & favorable to him instead, he will continue to LIE about the economy and hurts american lives

we're in an AI tech bubble right now...investors clearly getting spooked when revenues don't follow the hype $800B alone last week in valuation lost for the top tech companies 🍊 takes credit when the stock market goes 🆙, so we can surely blame him when it goes ⬇️ www.ft.com/content/8c6e...

look, i don't know why 🍊 would want to name the #NFL washington commanders' stadium after him but...i mean...if he really wants it ⚠️ PEDOPHILE ARENA ⚠️ at least it'll be the truth and a reminder that he's blocking the release of the #Epstein files www.theguardian.com/sport/2025/n...

remember that CRUELTY is a FEATURE for this administration m@ga chose their giddiness to be openly RAC!ST when they voted for 🍊 the rest of us who were sane, knew this was coming as was written in #Project2025 and now m@ga claim "this isn't what they voted for" nah, this IS what you voted for ⚠️

with ALL of the corruption 🍊 continues to engage in combined with the govt shutdown: ◌ kristi noem spending $200MM on 2 private jets ◌ kash patel using the FBI private jet to see his girlfriend are things that don't even create even a small BLIP on the corruption radar 💢💢💢
