stupidest thing republicans did was defund SNAP. white MAGA towns may not have anyone Black or Queer, but they sure as hell know someone they love on SNAP. now it looks like it was the Democrats fault all along. they placed the gun in blue hands and literally shot themselves in the face with it.

Folks, a pill to swallow: if current Democrats will cave to your healthcare, they will cave to your voting rights. If they will cave to you not getting paid for 40 days, they will cave to LGBTQ+ marriage. If they cave to stalling our airplanes, they will cave to destroying our National Parks.

Please put the Working Families Party in your mouth. They did wonders with Mamdani’s campaign. We saw how quickly his rise to collective awareness was in less than six months. We can do that too, people. Everywhere. We hold the power. Screw Establishment Dems. Their time is over. It’s our turn now.

It was harder getting endorsements for Zohran Mamdani from Democrats than them caving to Republicans to mutually strip us of healthcare

this is like watching the king of the north and daenerys targaryen and any other resistance leader bend the knee to joffrey at kings landing WTAF 😤

Fucking done with bitches over 70 ruining every fucking thing that has even made life slightly sustainable the past twenty years

Reporter: What do you say to your colleagues who say this isn't a fight, this is a capitulation? Shaheen: We have a guaranteed vote by a guaranteed date… Reporter: There is no guarantee that this will become law. Shaheen: There was never a guarantee that it would be become law.

The caucus meeting was just to orchestrate who would fall on the sword but not be up for a vote in 2026.

Honestly primary every Dem senator then? None of them deserve this power.

We can't give up now. ❄️

John Fetterman’s memoir comes out on Tuesday, so if the phone calls don’t work you can always tell him how you feel while he’s on book tour.

We tried to show them after the last surrender. There's no sense in trying to convince them anymore. Primaries are the only path to a fighting opposition party now.

MAGA took over Republicans, so Democratic Socialists taking over Establishment Democrats — BET

We need to realize most of our well known politicians — red or blue — are truly one color only: shady as F*CK.

Our Senate is compromised. Including Establishment Democrats who are all Republicans in sheep’s clothing. They serve not us, but their true masters: billionaires. Next step: we re-group. We have to survive ONE YEAR with healthcare that is about to bankrupt us blind. What does that mean? (1/3)

We need the names of the eight. They all have to go. And Schumer, too.

so much suffering and sacrifice only to to agree to terms that will beget more suffering and sacrifice.

No health care, no deal.

I guess regular working class people are supposed to sympathize with the people who cave the second they might have to work weekends

Virginia, you CAN send an email. I just emailed @kaine.senate.gov. Make your voices heard tonight. Tell them to hold the line and not cave! www.senate.gov/states/VA/in...

How much is your ACA premium going up because Chuck Schumer (and the traitor Dems he's hiding behind) is a fucking coward? Tell me in the replies.

Useful if you, like me, find Congressional procedure mind-numbing, and yet. I guess we have to learn this stuff, now

One of the talking points I keep seeing from Democrats is that part of the deal is that it will "ensure federal workers receive back pay" but that's the existing law! That's not something you've won in negotiations. That's just the letter of the law. You don't get to claim that as a win.

all these "I'm voting no! statements" from senators are empty bullshit to me unless they are calling for new leadership and shunning each coward caver and swearing to make their life half the living hell they just put their constituents through for no reason

Markey & Pritzker weigh in…

Can't wait for tomorrow's fundraising email from the Democratic Party.

Should be pretty clear that without House commitment on a vote on ACA extensions, it is purely symbolic as part of the Senate deal

I thought I couldn't be more over this weak pathetic out of touch man. I was wrong.

Primary them all. Mercilessly. Relentlessly. They've got to go.

he’s right though!! the house won’t pass it, they won’t even reconvene!!

My family has been without half our income for 40 days. It has been.. very hard. We are willing to feel that pain so people can have health care next year, or to undo these illegal recissions. We are not willing to have been put through this for NOTHING.

If you are a politician, party official, organizer, or major supporter, and you have any thoughts or insight on Democrats caving and saving Republicans from the government shutdown, text me on Signal premthakker.35 Your anonymity can be protected

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.

Abolish the Senate. It's antidemocratic, anti-Black, and classist. It exists solely because the racist founders thought the House of Representatives was TOO democratic and because the southern slavers demanded a house of Congress where they'd have outsized influence. Get rid of it.

Democratic leadership saw people getting excited and encouraged by the elections last Tuesday and said "that's QUITE enough of that!"

Schumer's curse has always been that he is an average politician who believes himself to be a strategic genius.

What would it take to depose Chuck Schumer as Senate minority leader this week? Really? Come on. Someone in the Democratic caucus has the spine to do what he won’t.

There’s a reason Mamdani voted for himself under the Working Families Party. You’re seeing that reason why NOW. From now on, it’s @workingfamilies.org forward. May the old Democrat ways die.

I really look forward to the day when Americans stop homogenizing Native people and see us as different people from different families, cultures, and tribes. The Seneca in New York are 2,000 miles from the Diné in New Mexico. This is like comparing the people of Portugal to the people of Denmark.

Can we pleeease impeach him before he dies?

Schumer is just Andrew Cuomo with scoliosis

Hey folks Yall know how much I love Blue Prince, Turns out one of their playtesters is in need of a kidney Read more here: www.yahoo.com/news/article...

folks, we gotta start shattering the single family household structure and expectation STAT to survive. go back to generational and/or multi-family house living. we need our communities. offer that extra empty room to a friend.

hey, we can’t do this anymore. we are weeks from complete collapse. please brace for impact ❤️‍🩹

So it turns out... the US air travel system was incredibly, deeply dependent on federal funding to just run day-to-day all this time, to the benefit of private airline shareholders, when everyone thinks that state-run trains are leeching off the government. Weird!

If all the money is gone, then we stop and agree on new methods of trade. We CANNOT believe in the U.S. dollar anymore if it means suffering for millions and only gives value to the rich. Trade. Barter. Create local currency. Defy.

it should be legal to hunt property developers and landlords for sport

okay. he’s now mayor. time to get critical. when he said “New York will remain a city of immigrants: a city built by immigrants, powered by immigrants and, as of tonight, led by an immigrant” that slapped. but. i wish he mentioned it was also built on stolen land. or that NYC was built by Natives.

This really hasn’t gotten enough attention this week. @wired.com #ICE www.wired.com/story/fbi-wa...
