This begins the epic thread of dealing with the wine my father left me. This will probably take me days / weeks.
All wine was stored in in his house in So Cal, either the garage or the non-A/C living room. One bottle stored over the wall oven. 😳

Trump getting elected a few weeks AFTER the Access Hollywood tape dropped was to America’s culture of sexual violence what Sandy Hook was for gun violence—a clear sign that tens of millions of “conservatives” were totally fine with it.
i mean c’mon. the president’s best friend was the most notorious pedo in the country’s history who ran a massive child trafficking ring. every bit of circumstantial evidence we have says that trump was a participant. if this were a criminal trial we’d have enough evidence to compel a plea deal.

Considering the current consequences this is so disappointing. I get it was off cycle here - just two referendums for me - but ugh.
About one in three registered voters participated in their local elections throughout Oregon last week. That’s according to preliminary election results from the Oregon Secretary of State’s office.

People need to pressure the Surrender Caucus 8, Schumer. And your own Senators even if they voted no - this is undermining us all.
To be clear, this deal still needs to go through a debate and amendment process and more 60-vote thresholds to pass the Senate, and then it must pass the House. There's still room for constituent pressure.

If I understand this thread (which is about timing for reopening govt) there's another cloture requiring 60 votes to move forward?
People need to light the phone lines for the Surrender Caucus on fire between now and that vote.

Assume it passes, because it’s only 50 votes. File cloture on final passage. That requires a session day intervening, so final cloture vote on final passage would be Thursday. 60 votes for this.
If that passes, another 30 hours of debate happens. Takes us to Friday for final passage in the Senate.

Senate: 1 - 3 reps per state, rank for population, gdp, & strategic needs (eg resource, border, etc).

Unfortunately many folks (incl Jewish folks) fell for administration's lies about "fighting antisemitism" under guise of free speech and support for Israel.
Cue rude awakening.

The Senate GOPedos figured out a procedural way around the filibuster with their parliamentarian side-step on the budget bill. I wouldn't credit them at all. They've shown zero other signs that they're considering downside protection.
one other very notable thing that's happened is that Republicans in the Senate have responded to his repeated exhortations to nuke the filibuster by totally ignoring him
unlike some other things we've seen, this is absolutely not the behavior of people who think Dems will never hold power again
