Jeff Bezos paid $50 million for a wedding. He just got a $16 billion tax break. He just laid off 60,000 people.

And you're furious about a kid getting a free school lunch?

Lutnick is the current Secretary of Commerce and Epstein sent this email three months before he died.
Epstein mocked Trump for “leaving his nose print on the glass” while watching young women, wrote that Trump knew about illicit activity tied to Mar-a-Lago, and visited “many times,” and noted Trump’s planned visit to his neighbor Howard Lutnick’s house.

Averages out to $166,172 per person for 674 people.

+ all the money spent on salaries/overtime for those LEO who were breaking the L!

Taxpayer money at work!

Nothing illustrates the arseholery of the IOC and the British Press more than the use of the image of a not-Trans woman to illustrate a story about trans women being banned (because there are no current trans women competing at this level)

seems to me that those democrats inclined not to fight perceive themselves as living through a somewhat ordinary cycle of presidential overreach and backlash and not something much more significant and dangerous

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

MSNBC reported Schumer's office felt that the longer that shutdown went on, the more likely it was that people would start to blame the Dems.

My kingdom for Democrats that don't govern out of fear. I've said it before and I'll say it again: The American people are far braver than their reps.

agreeing to make a terrible deal while your main opponent is quite literally being boo'd on live tv by an entire stadium of people is the kind of political instinct you'd normally only find in a 3 week old dead goldfish

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.
If the Dems blink after all of this, for a deal that all but ensures no ACA subsidies in 2026 anyway, then what was the purpose of letting the shutdown go for 40 days in the first place?

We tried to show them after the last surrender. There's no sense in trying to convince them anymore. Primaries are the only path to a fighting opposition party now.

the shutdown deal vote count affords democrats an opportunity to look like progressive fighters when the outcome was pre-ordained (and electeds probably know that)
Interesting that NY gov Kathy Hochul felt compelled to put out a statement against Dems' deal to end the shutdown

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.

The fact that none of the 8 Dems are up for re-election in 2026 is a pretty good sign @schumer.senate.gov engineered the surrender

To tip the balance of power in the NYS Assembly from neoliberal Center to progressive Left, we must win ~7 more primaries.

IMO, our best pick-up opportunity within NYC this cycle lies in AD-54, where @cct4nyc.bsky.social is running to replace Dilan.

Thank you, Brooklyn! You helped us beat our day one fundraising goal in less than 24 hours. Together, we raised over $26,000 in donations free of fossil fuel, real estate, pro-genocide, and corporate money.
