I am old enough to remember when elected officials were people of character that were held to the highest ethical standards. Now the billionaires fund GOP lickspittles who take their money and then do their bidding instead of representing their constituents. Overturn Citizens United

One of the biggest takeaways from the Epstein file release today was that Jeffrey Epstein in 2018 and early 2019 was telling people he had dirt on Trump which could destroy Trump. That is very likely why the Trump DOJ charged Jeffrey Epstein in July 2019 and then "suicided" him.

I feel like I'm taking crazy pills: the emails from Landon Thomas has his New York Times signature block...he was employed by NY Times at the time. He was communicating directly with Epstein about Trump, and was given incriminating information about Trump. It's been in NYT's possession since 2015

🚨 The shutdown isn’t over. The Senate vote was a procedural step, not a deal. Nothing is reopening. Nothing is fixed. Eight Democrats helped move an old GOP bill while families go unpaid and SNAP stays frozen.

Democrats reveal whistleblower details of Ghislaine Maxwell prison ‘luxuries’
In a letter to the president, House Democrats say Maxwell’s treatment as she prepares a clemency request makes the convicted sex offender look like a “guest at a Trump hotel.”

He is 100% correct! Except, there may not be “substantial” damage to the Dem brand, but irreparable damage. It took a lot to get people feeling hopeful again, after 2024. But the No Kings and Hands Off protests energized millions. The shutdown has brought center Rs and independents to the fight too
Chris Murphy: "There will be pretty substantial damage to a Dem brand that has been rehabilitated if on the heels of an election in which the people told us to keep fighting, we immediately stop... if we surrender without having gotten anything, I worry it'll be hard to get them back up off the mat"

Dem Senators want to negotiate for a "promise".
In addition to calls, you can send these Senators a text via www.pleasegrowaspine.org.
After 11/4, we're in a position of POWER and have LEVERAGE!
No negotiating. Either Republicans agree to extend ACA credits or get to own the famine that follows.
