Is the shutdown over? Not yet.
Tonight’s vote was only step 1 of 5.
There’s still another 60-vote hurdle, amendments, AND then the House.
Pressure matters right now—especially on Kaine, Rosen, Hassan, Shaheen.
Stay loud.

It’s NOT over!

Eliza does a phenomenal job explaining the upcoming process and the actions we can all take to pressure the 7 Dems + King to change their vote

Listen and then take action⤵️

As I said last night on MSNBC as the news broke that eight Senate Democrats were joining the GOP: This must be the end for Chuck Schumer as Senate Democratic leader.

Now that's a GREAT idea for those who want to contact their own Senators who didn't vote the betrayal.

Pushing for Schumer's ouster would certainly add to communicating the anger and betrayal we all feel!
And if the rest actually disagree with them then I suggest that they call for Schumers ouster as leader to be replaced by someone that CAN be a leader.
November 10, 2025 at 3:47 PM
Here is the message I'm leaving them:

Because of your vote yesterday to betray the American people, I will never again vote for you nor ever again give you one single penny. You are a traitor to the American people you claim to represent.

🤬
These damn Democrats have no backbone! Damn shame... should have held out a little longer. They get "NOTHING!" For giving in.

What “concessions” did Democrats get for their cave? Not nothing. But by treating these things as “concessions,” Democrats are ultimately rewarding Trump for his bare-knuckle shutdown tactics.

Dems Reward the Hostage-Taker
Perhaps ending the shutdown was the responsible thing to do. But by caving, Democrats risk legitimizing Trump’s maximum-pain shutdown tactics.

So China has finally decided to let the orange traitor know just what a stupid buffoon fool he is.

I'd love this if it was just about the orange felon, but not for how disastrous it is for America.
🚨⚖️📚Decoupling escalates: China bans U.S. AI chips in state data centers, channeling spend to Huawei/Cambricon and clustering local GPUs to scale. Cheaper power and vast renewables tilt the energy war. De-dollarization quickens as RMB trade grows; gold now tops Treasuries. DC debt & MBS risks loom.

I would never have believed that he is this stupid. The orange traitor will never sign a bill, and he knows that very well.

I guess the orange felon is not the only TRAITOR to the American people. A sad day for the country when senators betray their constituents and rip their healthcare away.

Higher ad rates for scammers??????????

Are you serious??

Grifting from the grifters must be big business.
DELETE FACEBOOK AND INSTAGRAM.

I'm always glad to find out that lots of people are still helping Ukraine! In the middle of our own fight for freedom and democracy, we might forget that Ukrainians are fighting for theirs as well.

For us it's voting, for them it's guns and missiles and sometimes dying for it.

Slava Ukraini!

Our fundraiser for 25 basic tech kits is finished!

Thanks to your help, we've raised $33,010. As we delivered some of the kits to our heroes during the fundraiser, drone pilots from the Da Vinci Wolves and the 80th Brigade already received Starlinks, generators, and EcoFlows.

For over 9 years now, I've been watching the morning headlines for a front page obituary. And all the times I've said that, not once has anyone asked whose.
Just STFU DonOld, obviously you have no clue when your own country no longer wants you. I’d be happy if the next thing I hear in the news about you is your obituary.

While we are fighting for our own freedom and democracy, please keep in mind that Ukrainians are fighting for theirs, too.

Only they have to do it with guns and missiles, and sometimes they have to die for it.

Please do whatever you can to support people like these all over the world!
