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

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

7 Dem Senators who are retiring and one who is going to run as a Republican. Every deal in DC is either about getting the voters what we need or getting the legislators what they want. Clearly we didn't get anything but screwed - so the question becomes: WHAT DID THEY GET? 15 pieces of silver?

Tonight was a very bad night.

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.

What voter in their right mind would trust a Democratic senator that trusts the word of Mike Johnson or Donald Trump?

You want normal governance? Then stop feeding the chaos machine. Standing firm is the grown-up move. And if that makes a few senators uncomfortable good. Maybe they’ll finally feel a fraction of the pain their cowardice inflicts on everyone else.

This is really good to see: Miki Sherrill just put out a statement sharply criticizing the Senate Dems' pending cave in the government shutdown, ripping it as "malpractice" and a betrayal of the people who are "counting on us to fight for them." Sherrill knows what drove her victory. Wake up, Dems.

Thank you Bobbi Bittker and @americanbar.org for the nice write up! www.americanbar.org/content/dam/...

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 94th day out of the last 106. 12 days of work in 106 days. With full pay and benefits. The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown. It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

So the Epstein vote isn't the only reason Mike Johnson should fear Rep. Yassamin Ansari. More of this, please.

NEWS: A federal judge in Rhode Island has released her written order demanding the Trump admin use emergency funds to pay SNAP food benefits. The court gave the gov until Nov 4 to ensure payments are made and says if the contingency fund runs out, they must continue to fund SNAP via other means.

Obama: They never miss a chance to scapegoat minorities and D.E.I. For every problem under the sun. You got a flat tire? D.E.I.. Wife mad at you? D.E.I..

Obama: As for the president, he has been focused on critical issues like paving over the rose garden so folks don't get mud on their shoes and gold plating the Oval Office and building a ballroom… If you can't visit a doctor, don't worry. He will save you a dance.

Not too sure MAGA Mike is going to like this new national ad buy from the DCCC

States from North Carolina to New Jersey are doing everything they can to keep SNAP funded, but Trump is determined to let Americans go hungry.

Our new health insurance premium feels more like a shakedown‼️ Thank you, @politicsgirl.bsky.social , for sharing your story. You’re right—there are millions like you. Our new premium is over $3K/month for a family of three. Could we scrape it together? Maybe. Should we have to? No. 1/2

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 85th day out of the last 97. 12 days of work in over 3 months. With full pay and benefits. The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown. It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

I don't know who needs to hear this, but if you have friends struggling through the shutdown, consider inviting them over for a family dinner this week. Make too much. Insist they take leftovers home. Some folks can't say they need help out loud but will appreciate the kindness.

Whenever people complain about the number of folks relying on food stamps, it is worth reminding them that SNAP is, by too large of a degree, a subsidy for corporations that refuse to pay a living wage and their political allies who reject public policy prescriptions to reduce income inequality.

Someone want to tell Mikey here that 86% of all SNAP benefits go to households that include a child, an elderly person, or a person with disabilities? Or that almost 40% of SNAP recipients are children? And that Whites account for 37% of SNAP recipients?

Tell bezos to suck it!

The poor aren't free riders. The billionaires are.

Republicans WANT this shutdown , Democrats hold the line do not fold .

Donald Trump is telling his DOJ to prosecute people involved in defeating him in 2020. He will claim the 2025 California referendum was fraudulent. He is going to try to impose voter ID and ban mail-in and early voting for 2026. I will do everything I can in the courtroom and in public to stop him.

It is disgusting to me how many people think screaming “get a job” is the solution as though there aren’t millions of people working who still can’t afford to eat. That’s a systemic failure ffs.

💯⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️ I agree and if for some reason laws would prohibit the registration portion they should still do it

Yes!

The legislature has had months to fully fund Medicaid in North Carolina. If they can come back to manipulate election maps for partisan gain, why can’t they come back to work to secure your health care?

I am signing Senate Bill 449 to keep our state running. But this mini budget is just simply not enough, the legislature needs to pass a full budget now. That is what North Carolinians deserve.

Speaker Hall just said there likely won’t be any more recorded votes in the NC House this year. Translation: Republicans are clocking out without passing a budget (their core responsibility). ..but they found time to rig maps for the 7th time.
