Use it up, wear it out. Make it do or do without. It is still going to get worse. she/her. Janeway is my captain. Solidarity is power. Defeatism only serves the enemy.

I am so angry right now I can't see straight. I got up to deal with a glucose low and it looks like Schumer has once again snatched defeat out of the jaws of victory. Tim Kaine I don't know what I expect from you. You got to go. You both got to go. Only Progressive Democrat votes from now on.

Tonight’s Senate vote on the federal government shutdown should have been a time for strength.
Instead we saw capitulation and a betrayal of working Americans.
The American people need more from their leaders.

It’s times like these when I remember that 59% of Americans read at a 6th grade level or below and that there is a reason for that which goes beyond education.

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.

So @schumer.senate.gov really thinks we don’t understand that he orchestrated this by getting senators not up for re-election to vote yes?

Well, the good news is that with the airlines spinning up again, it will be easier for more of us to converge on DC.

Bernie Sanders: "What this Senate is about to do is make a horrific situation even worse. So let's be clear what this vote is about. If this vote succeeds, over 20 million Americans are gonna see at least a doubling in their premiums in the ACA."

People were donating to food banks in communities across the country. Many SNAP recipients who were struggling felt the momentum. They too need healthcare & many didn't want us to cave. 7M of us didn't march to cave. We didn't win every election last week to cave. Shame on the cavers. Vote them out.

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.

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

The pragmatic take I’m too bummed to embrace just yet but believe is the way.
“It demonstrated that Dems can go to the mat when the public is behind them and not pay a political price. It dramatically damaged Donald Trump. It cued up the central arguments of the 2026 campaign …

Unfortunately, not all of us will be around to see the day when this regime collapses and justice is restored.
It’s a sad fact that we have to somehow understand and accept.
These are the people we must always remember and fight the good fight for. The people who won’t get to see justice served.

In 1972, a cat commando unit was sent to prison by a military court for a crime they didn't commit. These kittens promptly escaped from a maximum security stockade to the Los Angeles underground. Today, still wanted by the government they survive as soldiers of fortune @[email protected]

I don’t care if Schumer voted no. If he’s unable to wrangle the caucus, he’s not an effective leader. I’ll continue to push for the caucus to elect a new one.
