As I said last month, the party that pushes for a shutdown never gets what they want.
-In 2013, Cruz tried to defund Obamacare via shutdown, didn't work
-In 2018, Dems did for DREAMers, it failed
-Trump shut the government down for his border wall. it failed

Israel will tell us with a straight face that it's a leader in green energy while doing ecocide to Gaza and emitting more than 100 countries. As COP30 begins let's remember that military emissions aren't even calculated. #cop30

Fighting against Trump isn’t enough. It's time for Democrats to show America what they're fighting FOR — and embrace the fresh, new voices leading the way. This week was a good start. Here's what else they need to do. https://youtu.be/Uzc57eD3cWI?si=fLGGWBf468q4aacc

I’ve come to believe that we need to gather considerable forces and a campaign to demand the removal of face masks by ICE, Border Patrol, FBI and police.
It is a practice in conflict with the principles of transparency & accountability that are central to the concept of democracy.

Video on social media shows an immigration agent pulling a gun in Little Village and holding it to the side — which is not an appropriate or safe way to hold a gun. (Among other issues.)

I will not support a deal that does nothing to make health care more affordable.
We are in a health care emergency. A simple one-year extension of these tax credits would cost less than Donald Trump’s $40 billion bailout for Argentina.
A vote for this bill is a mistake.

A congress and senate where power is accrued by seniority in a system without term limits or retirement age limits insures an endlessly entrenched old and in the way gerontocracy that blocks democratic renewal and change that reflects the will of the electorate.

Republicans were overwhelmingly getting blamed for the shutdown.
There was no reason for the Democrats to cave to Trump on healthcare, except for the fact that they are wholly owned and operated by the health insurance lobby.

Casual reminder that the myth of “pulling yourself up by your bootstraps” is a cruel hoax designed to convince poor people from all walks of life that the injustices they face are a result of their own actions, rather than an oppressive system rigged against them.
