I was really hoping to hear angry people vent their fury about the Senate cave-in on @nicollewallace.bsky.social's show. I really need that. Hope it's upcoming.

Hard to see @schumer.senate.gov being able to stay in leadership after this or in the senate, he was not the man for this moment

I'm cheering @julieroginsky.bsky.social right now, saying she is furious about the Senate's "unconscionable" cave-in and that it's time for @schumer.senate.gov to go. She calls herself an establishment Democrat but says she is more aligned now with @sanders.senate.gov. Ditto here.

HE'S NOT EVEN UP FOR ELECTIONS FOR FIVE YEARS. NOW IS THE TIME TO TOSS IT ALL TO THE WIND
I can only hope that Kaine has bedhead because he lost sleep fucking over millions of uninsured Americans. He caved because he wants the votes of federal workers in Virginia. He lost the last shred of respect I still held for him.

cause there are no Dem senators "mad as hell"
until i see statements from Dem senators calling for Schumer to step down, i will believe that this was coordinated effort. the 8 traitors were chosen to be the fully guys. the rest of the caucus went along with it.

On Morning Joe, Joe & co. are telling us to calm down and "take the win" by losing. They've booked three of the turncoat senators. How about booking any of the many who are mad as hell?

Yeah. Remove Schumer as minority leader, and start removing committee assignments.
What this says is: We could have done this 40 days ago, not put you all through that hell, and have left you in a different hell.

People on SNAP are starving and people on ACA who cannot afford insurance will suffer and die but what keeps coming up on Morning Joe? Air travel. First-world problems always trump -- pun intended -- poor people's problems.

The Turncoat 8 aren't the only culpable parties here. Chuck and all those who hid behind them are part of a conspiracy to cave. Every senator needs to stand up and loudly condemn this deal; if you don't. you should be primaried. Stand up and be counted.

As important: Status BBC in the US
[In the US, where it recently notched up monthly viewing figures of 77m, it is now the second most trusted news source—just behind the Weather Channel.]
It’s become the channel with a status for fact (double) check, seen as possibly least/unbiased, 9 months ago.

What if I told you that none of the other Senate Dems are actually mad? If they were actually mad they could have not granted unanimous consent and slowed last night's vote.
A few were tasked with pretending otherwise last night but, Senate Dems support this "deal" and support Donald Trump.
