They already had this, when they passed axing ACA credits. There's no ambiguity that Republicans did that and you can attack them for it. The marginal advantage of having another vote for messaging purposes is, at best, extremely thin, and even negative if it lets some Rs cast a meaningless yes vote

I’ve worked with ushering SORN documents through and also making sure we complied cause the thing I never wanted to do was piss off an archivist. Honestly, they’re the nicest people so I’d have to really f-it up and ugh, no thank you. Great people to work with.

Maybe he should just take a billion out of his pocket and make sure they don’t lose their fucking houses or get to feed their families.

Something something senators, something something class solidarity.

Yeah, things senators don’t have, solidarity with those of us who they see as clearly beneath them. Looking at you Kaine and Fetterman. Oh hell, all of the leadership in the senate

People literally stayed home and didn’t vote because they pissed off the Dem base but instead of holding GOP voters accountable folks keep saying those who stayed home are at fault. Cause the consequences for pissing off dem voters is what we have now and it is very very bad.

This deal to reopen the government is fucking disgraceful.

Tens of millions will lose their healthcare. Trump will be emboldened.

This is exactly what’s wrong with Democratic Party leadership and why we need more people in Congress who will actually hold the line.

So at the beginning of Nov Congress would have been paid, unless they specifically had their pay check held.

I would argue they should donate it because they haven’t worked.

Maybe a good question for reporters to catalog?

When prices rise because *demand* is hot, wages usually follow. When prices rise because tariffs raise costs -- a *supply* shock -- there’s no reason paychecks catch up. That’s why tariff inflation hurts a whole heckuva lot more. It's a permanent reduction in living standards.

Also, if you think Walmart and Kroger and Albertsons are not pressuring Dem senators to cave so they can get their sweet sweet $8 billion in SNAP $$$/every month, think again.

Typhoon FUNG-WONG is heading to the Philippines as the equivalent of a major Atlantic hurricane.
What’s really stands out is its immense eye. At one point today its eye spanned ~70 miles - about the distance from Tampa to Orlando. Picture an eye like that spanning the state!… 1/

β€˜How is this possible?’: a new film looks inside the appalling abuses of the Alabama prison system In the year’s most shocking documentary, The Alabama Solution, prisoners share astonishing footage in a plea for help

And now, if you read the devastating piece about what Venezuelan deportees endured at the El Salvador torture prison, read what incarcerated U.S. citizens endure in Alabama prisons.

State prisons in the U.S. that are massive systems of human rights violations.

I want you to understand what it is like to live in Chicago during this time.

Every day my phone buzzes. It is a neighborhood group: four people were kidnapped at the corner drugstore. A friend a mile away sends a Slack message: she was at the scene when masked men assaulted and abducted two people on the street. A plumber working on my pipes is distraught, and I find out that two of his employees were kidnapped that morning. A week later it happens again.

An email arrives. Agents with guns have chased a teacher into the school where she works. They did not have a warrant. They dragged her away, ignoring her and her colleagues’ pleas to show proof of her documentation. That evening I stand a few feet from the parents of Rayito de Sol and listen to them describe, with anguish, how good Ms. Diana was to their children. What it is like to have strangers with guns traumatize your kids. For a teacher to hide a three-year-old child for fear they might be killed. How their relatives will no longer leave the house. I hear the pain and fury in their voices, and I wonder who will be next.

Understand what it is to pray in Chicago.

The man is sleeping during press conferences and meetings. He is going to the hospital and not divulging what's happening. He is continuing to post in unhinged ways. He's 1000% UNFIT to work anywhere. Who would hire an 80 year old man who was displaying this kind of behavior for ANY job at all?
