Murphy on the shutdown cave: "Trump was showing signs of cracking. What did he do Wednesday? He called all Republicans to the WH & said, 'end the filibuster.' They basically told him no. His only play would have been to come to Ds to cut a deal, but we were so impatient we didn't even get there."

How about instead of selling "bearista" cups, Starbucks bargains a fair contract with its unionized baristas? No contract. No coffee. Don't cross the picket line. Solidarity with @sbworkersunited.org ✊
Starbucks' outrageous CEO-to-worker pay gap might make you spit out your morning coffee. And we're supposed to believe Starbucks can't afford to bargain a fair contract with its unionized workers?

Trump says, “no one cares about veterans more than me.”
But his playbook says something else:
📌 Strip disability pay from veterans
📌 Cut 30,000+ VA jobs that help disabled vets
The Project 2025 agenda:
Gut the government, gut veterans, and funnel the money to Trump’s billionaire friends.

the thing that strikes me about this — again, besides it being false — is the venom and disrespect for the people who come here to work and build better lives. they aren’t “servants.”

For years, but especially for the past year, Democrats have been in thrall to the idea that they need to chase an imagined median voter, and adopt that voter’s positions. Mamdani’s victory shows another way: hold principles, and persuade people to share them.

The Democratic party appears listless and unprincipled, unwilling to fight because they do not believe in anything. Zohran Mamdani is the opposite of this

After yesterday’s surrender, we’re launching the largest Democratic primary program that we’ve ever run.
We will not back any Senate primary candidate unless they call for Schumer to step down as Minority Leader.
If you’re as pissed as we are, join this campaign to rebuild the Democratic Party. 👇
