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.

RELEASE THE EPSTEIN EPSTEIN EPSTEIN EPSTEIN EPSTEIN EPSTEIN EPSTEIN EPSTEIN FILES !

I don’t care if Schumer voted no. If he’s unable to wrangle the caucus, he’s not an effective leader. I’ll continue to push for the caucus to elect a new one.

Tonight was a very bad night.

Corruption

Bernie Sanders: "What this Senate is about to do is make a horrific situation even worse. So let's be clear what this vote is about. If this vote succeeds, over 20 million Americans are gonna see at least a doubling in their premiums in the ACA."

This is so insane. #MedicareForAllNOW

New: The Supreme Court DENIES Kim Davis' request to overturn Obergefell, the marriage equality decision. No noted dissents. www.supremecourt.gov/orders/court...

Bring on the Progressives. Boot out the establishment. I am so sick of them.

“.. As the raids have continued, consumers have started to question whether the company’s silence makes it an accomplice to the sweeps rather than merely the backdrop. .. A backlash is coming for the company.” @bloomberg.com $HD www.bloomberg.com/opinion/arti...

In a functional party system, this kind of capitulation in the face of authoritarianism could mean the end of the Democratic Party. In our system, it could mean the end of the two party system. Neither party can represent the pro-democracy majority. It's time for something new.

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.

This we need New Democrats in congress

Here's a partial list of folks associated with pedophile, Epstein. 🤷🤬🤢

OPINION by @stevebenen.com: “GOP leaders, in the White House and on Capitol Hill, assumed that just enough Senate Democrats would cave under pressure. Those assumptions proved true.” READ MORE: www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddo...

Get out there yall and support this candidate no matter where you live! Aftyn Behn will flip TN-7 with our support!

REPOST! The next big fight is TN-7, which went for Trump by 21. Aftyn Behn, progressive firebrand and current Tn Rep. Statistically tied w/ MAGA moron Matt Van Epps. 3 weeks til Dec. 2. This would twist the knife in Republicans’ blowout defeats. Indivisible Tennessee is on it. Make her a STAR!

#GrumpyPolitics On Mondays, we call our Senators. First, this is a straightforward article to tell you where we stand. 1/ abcnews.go.com/Politics/dem...

“If you look at affordability, which [Democrats] campaigned on, they lied,” Trump said. The numbers show he and his administration are the ones lying about rising costs. Story: www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person. The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person. People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives. And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

Tim Kaine will go down as one of the most worthless politicians in history.

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

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.

POLITICO: “.. Among those who received the ‘full, complete and unconditional’ pardons were Rudy Giuliani .. Mark Meadows, .. John Eastman and Kenneth Chesebro, .. Boris Epshteyn .. and Sidney Powell ..” @politico.com @kyledcheney.bsky.social www.politico.com/news/2025/11...

I guarantee the reason these fucking worthless pieces of shit caved is because they're being personally inconvenienced by the air travel delays.

if they were going to cave anyway they should’ve done it a week ago to spare SNAP recipients the agony.

Introducing GF to Voyager

A Republican promise. LOL. The speaker is a snake. Thune is a MAGA toady. Who’s stupid enough to give in on healthcare now based upon on a promise from either of those two to do something later? Swear in Grijalve. Now. Then discuss a potential compromise.

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.

The president posts batshit insane, self-contradictory, harmful crap online daily, and the media is incentivized to not cover it like a scandal. When all this is over we’ve got to restructure media/reporting/journalism entirely.

"Ghislaine Maxwell is a monster... the victims that I have talked to, those that have survived Jeffrey Epstein, are horrified at the treatment that Ghislaine Maxwell is now getting." @robertgarcia.bsky.social reacts to reports of former Epstein associate Ghislaine Maxwell's cushy prison conditions.

Caving on a deal that doesn’t fix health care is, and always has been, a giant betrayal of the American people. Hold the line. Save health care. I’m a NO on anything that doesn’t extend ACA subsidies.

DO NOT CAVE!

If I were @schumer.senate.gov, I would not agree to help Republicans fund this regime on the "promise" of an ACA vote at a later date. It didn't work the last time when they promised to fund DC. It won't work this time either. The House won't touch it.

This video deserves more attention: An Army General explains the Trump regime’s inhumane arrests and deportations in Louisiana. youtube.com/watch?v=6IdO...

Trump's squad sneaks billions in tax perks to elite corps like crypto giants and foreign investors, gutting Biden's minimum tax via shadowy IRS tweaks that balloon the deficit. #TaxTheRich

Ending the ACA ends -coverage for pre-existing conditions -coverage for women’s health -premium subsidies -coverage for chronic conditions And much much more. Who wants their fate to rest in the hands of profit driven insurance companies?

The hypocrisy is Sheer Madness

Newsom: "It's not about rule of law anymore. It's rule of Don. He's choosing which court decisions he agrees with. He's quite literally running an extortion racket. He's doing it with some of the most powerful corporate leaders. What does everything have in common? Tariffs. They're about leverage"
