From street marches to court battles to the ballot box - we’ve challenged the power of this exceptionally unpopular president. The lesson from each success we've had is that we need to ramp the political pressure up, always up, not back down, now more than ever.

UPDATE ON MY HEALTH: I have not recovered from my Covid and mono flare. I'm still in a Lupus flare. I saw my primary doctor last week & had a full physical (14 vials of blood). My body is weak and I have to sort what I expend my energy on. I will NEVER GIVE UP. Please keep fighting & don't give up.🙏

MSNBC reported Schumer's office felt that the longer that shutdown went on, the more likely it was that people would start to blame the Dems. My kingdom for Democrats that don't govern out of fear. I've said it before and I'll say it again: The American people are far braver than their reps.

No. Go away.

Dear @murray.senate.gov 👇 this should matter to you.

I’ve said this b4, but here’s a little inside baseball from a former Republican: Back in my GOP days, we Republicans would privately laugh at how Democrats would never go to the mat to win. We always knew Democrats wouldn’t fight to the death politically. Last night proved Republicans right again.

@schumer.senate.gov 👇

Eight centrist Democratic senators just voted to reopen the government in exchange for a promise of a Senate vote on ACA subsidies. That’s not a deal—it’s surrender. They’ve given up real leverage for a handshake agreement that might never happen./🧵

It’s a frightening reminder we cannot rely on many elected officials to stick up for the non-elites, for the working class, they will not stand up for the poor. We need to primary them if they lack the ability, stomach, and drive to fight for the people they represent.

My God, what a horrible, pitiful, defeatist, tone deaf, and just plain…WRONG thing to say. Retire now @SenAngusKing if that’s how you feel. Retire now and put someone else in your place who will stand up to the fascist in the White House.

Millions of Americans Take to the streets for NO KINGS YOU FIGHT SO HARD TO STOP THE HORRENDOUS TRUMP OLIGARCHY & THE COWARDICE of Republican Congressional Representation But what do they do They're unified for evil DEMOCRAT LEADERSHIP in the SENATE CAVED WEAK WE ARE DISGUSTED ENOUGH

No, no, no. Senate Democrats secured the concepts of a plan for a handshake for a promise to hold a vote they will lose.

Chuck Schumer Helps Pull Democrats Back From Brink Of Courage

When we elect a Representative, we are handing our collective voice to one we believe will lead us forward. While #MGPisGOP neglects speaking out against fascism taking over our democracy to dismantle our Gov, constituents in #WA03 are being hurt. We must replace @gluesenkampperez.house.gov in '26.

After everything, Senate Democrats still haven’t figured out that surrendering to Trump Republicans will end badly? Unbelievable.

All we need for the actual cloture vote is one single Democrat to change their vote, do not give up now and be so proud of the work we did today! 2/2

Do you ever feel like just ummm bitch slapping With a shit eating grin He says "good evening " tee hee...you Caved No Deal. Wipe that grin off your face PATHETIC Senator Tim Kaine

Tonight was a very bad night.

THIS! WE WERE BETRAYED.😢💔

GET READY TO LOSE THE PRIMARY WHEN YOU'RE UP FOR RE-ELECTION

Anjelika is one pissed off dog. She and I are very sad about the betrayal of ACA subsidies and the suffering of government workers and 42 million Americans on SNAP!

The answer Sen, Shaheen is that since America elected the Black man to be president, the official position of the Republican Party is “not to work together with Democrats to address the problems that are facing this country.”

@kaine.senate.gov Please listen to Bernie Sanders.

Sanders: Let’s be clear… If this vote succeeds, over 20 million Americans are going to see at least a doubling in their premiums… if resolution is passed tonight, we are on a path way to throw 15 million Americans off of medicaid and the affordable care act, 15 million.

With all this BS happening about health insurance.... What if NONE OF US gave any of the health insurance companies a penny next year. None of us renew our plans. No one. What would they do? They would have no revenue. They would need to shut down. Medicare for All time!

Fun facts: Chuck Schumer didn't negotiate this deal. Chuck Schumer isn't voting for this deal. Chuck Schumer isn't running for leadership next Congress. Watch how many people shift their talking points.

8 Democrats capitulated, in exchange for NOTHING! You’d think we had just LOST the election on Tuesday, rather than winning a landslide! Spineless cowards! Here they are: Cortez Masto Durbin Fetterman Hassan Kaine King Rosen Shaheen

The Senate deal to end the shutdown includes a promise from Sen. John Thune to hold a Dec. vote on extending ACA premium subsidies before they expire and Democrats get to write the bill that’s voted on. I don’t trust promises and there’s no guarantee the extension bill passes.

Dem Senator Ruben Gallego is a no on the CR: “I have been clear on this from the beginning: I will not turn my back on the 24 million Americans who will see their premiums more than double if we don’t extend these tax credits.”

Seriously, this was a smart deal for the coward caucus in @democrats.senate.gov to make because they're about to make more lifelong enemies than they've ever had before.

Or maybe Senate Democrats are aware of how pissed off voters will be? This alleged deal guarantees a BILLION dollars in spending for security and police at the Capitol, and then a pinky promise to hold a vote on ACA subsidies that will surely lose. Not sure a billion will even be enough but OK.

Dear @schumer.senate.gov 👇 You couldn't even get this done.

let me just say Harry Reid would NEVER have allowed this

DO NOT CAVE!

This isn’t very hard, folks.

Shaheen is retiring. Hassan, 67, is the other Senator from NH. King, 81, from Maine, is an independent who usually caucuses with Dems. So, three Senators, two of which are so old as to be/should be retiring, from the whitest states in the country are defying the House...for what exactly?

@gluesenkampperez.house.gov what say you? This Congresswoman 👇is going to fight with me. Hold the damn line. ❤️🇺🇲💙

@schumer.senate.gov I know for a FACT now that I will lose my healthcare if you trust Republicans. And you know it. You will have failed me, completely. @murray.senate.gov

Hey, @shaheen.senate.gov this is the guy you want to protect? I'm going to lose my healthcare. I'm willing to do that. But you're a complete and total failure for choosing trump over my healthcare.

Government is shut down. Chaos in airports. 42 million going hungry. 24 million face skyrocketing healthcare costs. Economy in turmoil. And the president of the United States is in the Fox broadcast booth calling plays for a football game.

With our big election win last week, and Trump's clear political and physical decline, Dems should be more ambitious now, and fight even harder, for the country and the American people. Voters saw us fighting for them & we were rewarded across the country 👇 www.hopiumchronicles.com/p/trumps-gov...

Trump and Hegseth booed mercilessly for 2 minutes straight tonight by Washington Commanders fans.

NOW IS THE TIME TO CONTACT CONGRESS! NO CAVING! CONTACT THEM NOW HERE: actionnetwork.org/letters/tell...

Thank you to whoever leaked the fact that some Dems considered caving. That is not an option. We all want the government open but we need ACA subsidies officially extended. Pen to paper. Nothing less. Period.

Hold the line.

At your own risk, @schumer.senate.gov @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social @kenmartin.bsky.social. Y'all are about to screw up. Big time!!

NO. DAMN. DEAL. Trust the fascist looting pedos to send us our dues…like they’re sending SNAP? NO. DEAL.

@murray.senate.gov @schumer.senate.gov @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social if you fail now, you may lose me forever. Do not cave.

@hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social @schumer.senate.gov If you cave don't come to me looking for validation. You will not get it.

@murray.senate.gov PLEASE, I beg you, please listen to me. Please @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social listen to me. Hold the line. If I'm going to lose my healthcare, anyway, please don't cave now.
