i think this is key. taking the deal would amount to taking the blame. it would turn a clear political victory into an unambiguous defeat.

These 8 Senators sold us out to Trump: Hassan King Cortez-Masto Shaheen Kaine Fetterman Durbin Rosen Understand This Fact: Chuck Schumer is behind this. None of these 8 are up for reelection in 2026. Schumer asked them vote yes—they agreed. He's such a coward that he folded and won't even own it.

What's in the deal to end the government shutdown? The agreement doesn't include a firm commitment from Republicans to support Democrats' key demand: extending expiring health care subsidies. Read in USA TODAY: apple.news/AIMNF_79fR2m...

Dems should be all over THIS, not caving on a shutdown and healthcare premiums on which the publicly currently clearly blame Trump and the GOP for.

Dems backed Trump into a corner where he’s advocating for starving Americans and hemorrhaging support. If they vote to let him off the hook in exchange for nothing it’s a cataclysmic failure. I know people are in pain but insulating Republicans from political consequences is not the answer.

Remember: it's not the Democrat's fault Republicans are evil.

An ordinary resolution by a majority of Senate Democrats can replace the Senate Minority Leader (link is for majority leader but it’s the same process). If 24 Senators (counting independents to get to 47) tell Schumer he’s out if he lets the caucus cave, I doubt they cave today.

Not a good sign if the DOJ Office of Civil Rights was too fucked up for this guy “Michael Gates served 10 months in the Trump Administration as a deputy assistant attorney general in the DOJ’s Civil Rights Division.” laist.com/brief/news/h...

1️⃣ Conservatives in Maine put a measure on ballot that'd have introduced many restrictions on mail voting, + imposed voter ID. It'd have greatly affected older Mainers, & voters with disabilities. It'd have been implemented by the midterms. Voters rejected it 64%/36%. boltsmag.org/five-ways-20...

2️⃣ In one of Colorado’s largest school districts, in Douglas County, the conservative school board has sided with anti-LGBTQ+ politicians and undermined a state health survey. Conservatives lost all 4 seats on the ballot on Tuesday, and lost their majority. www.cpr.org/2025/11/05/c...

3️⃣ Some of Pennsylvania's most politically swing-y counties were electing their chief executives on Tuesday. Dems flipped the office in Erie County, ousting a GOP incumbent by 25%, and defended Lehigh & Northampton by similar margins. Also, Dems also flipped county board of red-leaning Luzerne.

4️⃣ You may have heard Pennsylvania Dems kept their 3 supreme court seats. This means they keep their 5-2 majority. But don't sleep on this, too: Results all but shuts the door on the GOP getting a majority on this court before 2029. GOP really wanted it ahead of 2028: boltsmag.org/pennsylvania...

5️⃣ JD Vance's half-brother, Cory Bowman, was crushed in his challenge Cincinnati's Democratic mayor Aftab Pureval. His loss was unsurprising in this blue-leaning city. But he lost 78% to 22%: That's the biggest margin in a mayoral race in Cincy since it started electing mayors directly in 2001.

7️⃣ Georgia Democrats flipped the two seats on the ballot for the Public Service Commission, the utility commission crucial for electricity rates and climate policy. These are Georgia Dems' first statewide victories for any non-federal office since 2006. And they won both seats by 24%.
