In response to this claim that the "strategy didn't work."

The people were on our side. We were building momentum to help save our democracy. We could have won - the premium increase notices were just starting.

And giving in now will embolden him. Things will likely get worse.

Every single last Democrat I know is pissed. And I know a lot of Democrats.

If you think the people throwing Great Gatsby-esque parties for themselves, while millions were denied their food assistance, are all of a sudden going to grow a conscience and save affordable healthcare, you clearly have not been paying attention.

Bring on the Progressives. Boot out the establishment.

I am so sick of them.

I think Senate folders are significantly underestimating how fucking angry Democratic voters are at them

If the Senate Dems fold, they will only prove out what we already knew:

Our Democratic leadership is old, tired and weak. They need to go. We can take care of that.

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.

I love how these weak Dems are praising that they voted to get federal workers who were fired, re-hired with back pay, and that SNAP will be funded.

This is not a deal — it's an empty promise.

Trump and his Republican Congress are making healthcare more expensive for the middle class and ending it for working families.

Time for Democrats to stand tall for affordable healthcare. www.politico.com/news/2025/11...

Sanders: That is a totally meaningless gesture. You can get 100 votes here and it won't mean anything because the House is not going to take it up.

An agreement to agree to do a later vote is NOT an enforceable contract so what in the actual hell are Americans getting out of this deal??

Dems backed Trump into a corner where he’s advocating for starving Americans and hemorrhaging support. If they vote to let him off the hook in exchange for nothing it’s a cataclysmic failure. I know people are in pain but insulating Republicans from political consequences is not the answer.

Newsom: "It's not about rule of law anymore. It's rule of Don. He's choosing which court decisions he agrees with. He's quite literally running an extortion racket. He's doing it with some of the most powerful corporate leaders. What does everything have in common? Tariffs. They're about leverage"

Socialism is what they called public power.

Socialism is what they called social security.

Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.

Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people.

Excessive force. PERIOD!

They called them “violent mobs,” but the violence came from the guys with badges and body armor.

I listened to several younger Democrats running for office in Iowa last weekend, and I’m telling you, Iowa and other states in the heartland have had enough.

2026 is going to be hard on Republicans, which is why they are going to try to limit voting. Pay attention.

Dear National Democrats,

You see how progressive politics can win in the cities. Now come back to rural America and help us take over the country.
