Earth to Democrats: Do NOT compromise on your shutdown demand. robertreich.substack.com/p/earth-to-d...

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.

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.

She should not be getting any special treatment after what she did to those girls!! But she is protecting a large groups of them one sitting at the top and she is waiting for her pardon.. For her silence www.rawstory.com/ghisliane-ma...

Sanders: That is a totally meaningless gesture. You can get 100 votes here and it won't mean anything because the House is not going to take it up.

Tonight’s Senate vote on the federal government shutdown should have been a time for strength. Instead we saw capitulation and a betrayal of working Americans. The American people need more from their leaders.

I got back to my office after the vote last night and recorded this. There's no way to sugarcoat what happened. And my fear is that Trump gets stronger, not weaker, because of this acquiescence. I'm angry - like you. But I choose to keep fighting.

Tonight was a very bad night.

even if you step back from ideology and look at it in sheer material terms, the *massive* military armament of the Iraq and Afghanistan wars was then brought home to American streets via "surplus" cops used to have a badge and a gun, now they look and move like Blackwater mercs

Newsom: Just a few hours ago, Trump posted on Truth Social saying he’s looking into criminal investigations because he’s already alleging that this election is rigged. He knows he’s going to lose. This is the Election Rigging Response Act because he also knows he’s going to lose the 2026 midterms.

this mf is on Fox damn near every day now

Hey @jaketapper.bsky.social, I'm no expert on cognitive illnesses, but it feels a bit detached from reality for a sitting POTUS to forget that he was in power during an attack on the U.S. Capitol, doesn't it? Do you know anyone in journalism with experience covering dementia-like symptoms?

Pritzker: "You just heard a tidal wave of lies from the VP. It's a bit shocking. And you heard over & over him just making things up. There's a reason why the judge here in federal court said that they admin lacks credibility and why even the Nobel committee chair said the admin lacks integrity."

Sens. Schumer, Merkley, Murray, and Peters are calling for the resignation of OMB Director Russell Vought. "By impounding billions of dollars … and aggressively pursuing the illegal use of pocket rescissions, Vought has done everything in his power to gut the federal government piece by piece."

Save the date: On Oct. 8, Reps. Ro Khanna, Thomas Massie, and Marjorie Taylor Greene will hold a press conference — joined by survivors of Jeffrey Epstein's abuse — to discuss the discharge petition to force a vote on Khanna and Massie's bill, the Epstein Files Transparency Act.

Now they're throwing shit out of the second story window of the White House. WHAT THE FUCK IS HAPPENING?

Honestly, the hour-long run and march of people shouting “Free DC” up 14th Street today is the energy I needed this morning. I love you, DC.

An upcoming news conference with victims of Jeffrey Epstein could be “explosive,” one of the congressmen pushing for full release of the files on Epstein predicts. Democratic Rep. Ro Khanna said the victims’ accounts will force lawmakers to vote on a bill requiring DOJ to release its files.

I don’t believe Rudy Giuliani was helping a “domestic violence victim” before his car crash. Not for one second.

OPINION: 'Which is it?': Nicolle Wallace calls out Republican hypocrisy on Epstein scandal @nicollewallace.bsky.social and panel discuss Republicans' contradictory statements about the Jeffrey Epstein scandal as the House Oversight Committee says it will get documents from the DOJ on Friday.

U.S. District Judge Richard Berman just called out the Trump DOJ and denied its request to unseal grand jury materials in the Epstein case. "The government's 100,000 pages of Epstein files and materials dwarf the 70 odd pages of Epstein grand jury materials."

I’m sure somebody already said this but: the latest season of HACKS is about the top-rated host in late night ending their show bc they made a joke about a powerful man and network execs decided to make an example of the show.
