I don’t know if the historians will be perplexed. Evangelicals are like every other religious fundamentalist group, they are easy to control with fear of the infidels.

Agree.
Sen Hassan, asked what will happen if Republicans don't carry out the deal, "Well, shame on them."
This is not what people were mobilizing for on Oct 18.

We’re not going to “fix the Democrats’ brand” by doing TikToks or launching pods. The brand is a direct reflection of our elected officials. If we want to purge our weak branding, we have to purge the weak Dems. I’m looking forward to a robust primary cycle and new Democrats who know how to fight.

PSA: Apparently, the Trump admin has clarified the rules of faith. You can pray, but your prayers must exclude the safety of immigrants if you're standing outside an ICE facility.
Divine intervention is apparently subject to zoning laws.

80% of Democratic voters want a new leader in the Senate.
Does that matter at all to Democratic senators?

Democrats who cave to fascist republicans and normalize their chaos, crimes, corruption and immoral agendas aren’t Democrats, they are cowardly traitors who need to be fired from office.

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

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.

After everything, Senate Democrats still haven’t figured out that surrendering to Trump Republicans will end badly? Unbelievable.

Our only hope for restoring democracy in our two party system is to elect Democrats, but sadly they keep proving it is only a small hope.

These people can’t read the room. They just killed the election victory. They are morons and liars.
Reporter: What do you say to your colleagues who say this isn't a fight, this is a capitulation?
Shaheen: We have a guaranteed vote by a guaranteed date…
Reporter: There is no guarantee that this will become law.
Shaheen: There was never a guarantee that it would be become law.

Listening to these 8 Dem Senators explain their vote convinces me that they are either idiots or liars. Either is plausible.

This isn't normal government operations. The Republicans are and always will be breaking government!

Here’s the list of the eight Democrats who caved:
⚫️ Catherine Cortez Masto
⚫️ Dick Durbin
⚫️ John Fetterman
⚫️ Maggie Hassan
⚫️ Tim Kaine
⚫️ Angus King
⚫️ Jackie Rosen
⚫️ Jeanne Shaheen
Their excuses don’t hold water. They betrayed all Americans who were counting on them to stand firm and keep fighting.

yeah everyone who’s in my mentions telling me schumer’s against this needs to understand what’s really going on. this is his caucus. he literally has one job — and he’s failing.
Schumer: "I must vote no. I can not, in good faith, support this CR. ... Make no mistake about it, the American people know who is inflicting this pain on them."
He stops short of urging his colleagues to vote "no."
