This Seattle mayoral race is going to be so close and when the lefty wins, it’s also going to be a big “fuck you” to the corporate boot lickers who are trying to say that there isn’t a push for socialist policy. Bruce Harrell is a democrat who will lose to a socialist. Why is that? #seattle

Eight Senate Democratic Caucus members broke ranks Sunday and voted to advance a deal to reopen the government.
There are few obvious threads connecting the group who broke the partisan impasse this time.

Medicare for all sounds like a great idea to me. We're the richest country in the world. There's no reason we shouldn't have healthcare for everyone. The ultra-wealthy need to be taxed accordingly.

Yup, and the damage isn’t so much in the story as in the proof of weakness. Trump now knows he has new torture tools to make Dems do what he wants. It’s why at least one of the 7 capitulators oughta be run out of office now, mid session. Get that number down to 6. www.offmessage.net/p/16-thought...

JFC. Does @schumer.senate.gov not get that by caving, Democrats make it *harder,* not easier, to make the ACA subsidies expiring stick politically to Trump/GOP? This effort to shame Republicans in this context risks signaling to low-info voters that Rs are standing on conviction and Dems aren't.

This is what a bunch of Democrats in the Senate just voted for:
"The provision, tucked into a measure to fund the legislative branch, appears to immediately allow for eight GOP senators to sue over their phone records being seized in the course of the investigation by Jack Smith ... into the riot at the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021." www.nytimes.com/2025/11/10/u...
Spending Bill Would Pave Way for Senators to Sue Over Phone Searches
Republicans have voiced outrage that Jack Smith looked at G.O.P. lawmakers’ phone records surrounding the Jan. 6 attack. Legislation to reopen the government would allow them to sue for $500,000 each.

I have to hand it to Democrats. I'm one of the feds working and not getting paid and they manage to make reopening the government feel worse than the alternative.
Like, why did I miss 2.5 paychecks to end up right back where we were before the shutdown started?

Not a political consultant but I’m not sure “standing up to trump doesn’t work” is the best midterm message, even if if accurately represents senate dems position. Not much point in putting you in power then bsky.app/profile/atru...
