Dump Schumer.

Standing up to a tyrant - who is willing to impose pain as leverage to compel loyalty or acquiescence - is hard. You can convince yourself that yielding stops the pain and brings you back to "normal".

But there is no "normal". Submission emboldens the tyrant. The threat grows.

These eight senators are pathetic

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.

Never forget who sold us out:

Hassan
King
Cortez-Masto
Shaheen
Kaine
Fetterman
Durbin
Rosen

This "deal" is a sell-out. Didn't you hear what voters said last Tuesday? If you want to kill Dem base enthusiasm, you could not have done a better job.

Sick at heart about sell-out by enough Senate Dems to end shutdown with a defeat. Didn't they see the voters's mood last Tuesday? Unconscionable and deflating. #demscave #shutdown

I am amazed by the people who don't think this is going to further radicalize the left. Talk about not reading the room at all.

i think this is key. taking the deal would amount to taking the blame. it would turn a clear political victory into an unambiguous defeat.

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.

Democrats have to stop bailing out Republicans from facing the consequences of their own policies. And yeah, that means they have to stop sparing voters from experiencing what GOP government truly means.

Every time Dems step in, it only emboldens the GOP & they make it even worse the next time.

Dow is an embarrassment to SLO County and disgraceful as a DA. He needs to go.

SLO County DA shares posts linking New York’s first Muslim mayor to 9/11 attacks When asked why he shared the posts, Dan Dow called Zohran Mamdani “an un-American socialist who wants to trample on the values and freedoms that millions of Americans have fought and died for.”

SLO County DA unmasks himself again as a bigoted right wing Christian nationalist. He has got to go. www.sanluisobispo.com/news/local/a...

Oh, FFS.

Really looking forward to the Speaker of the House claiming to be unaware of the election results.

Morro Bay is nice this time of year.

We've got you 👍

Protect marine national monuments from destruction | GUEST COMMENTARY The Trump administration is working to open some of America’s protected natural treasures to industrial fishing and oil drilling, writes Lauren Wenzel.

The Trump administration wants to open protected marine areas to destructive commercial activities—prioritizing short-term profits over our ocean health and the survival of endangered species like sea turtles.

The GOP’s top think tank just defended an open Nazi Reasonable people can disagree about whether Hitler was good, says the Heritage Foundation.

Kevin Roberts' defense of Nick Fuentes is a watershed moment: the right has officially declared open, unabashed Hitlerism to be an acceptable position in their coalition

Too many Americans either didn’t care or didn’t believe. Hopefully they do now.👇

Bonus primary points to which ever Democrat promises to demolish whatever fucking monstrosity ballroom Trump builds

Shame UCLA’s leadership HARD. And make plain every day that signing this instrument of capitulation is a career destroyer.

Those $376 Million Obama renovations people like Jesse Watters are using to defend Trump?

One problem — They were approved by Congress after a BUSH administration report said they were necessary: www.snopes.com/news/2025/10...

The Trump Administration Is Prepping to Sell off Alaska's Arctic to Oil and Gas Companies In a series of recent moves, the administration is opening most of the vast and precious Arctic ecosystem to drilling.

Today, Trump's DOI opened the entire 1.56 million acres of the Coastal Plain of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge to oil and gas leasing.

But the administration's agenda for the Arctic doesn't end here. It aims to maximize drilling across the entire region.

I shouldn't be shocked by anything, but I'm shocked that nobody has figured out a way to put a stop to this.

Looks like Jan. 6 - White House edition

the president has destroyed the east wing of the white house without so much as a word of input from anyone else to build a royal ballroom paid for with bribes

Take away the Voting Rights Act and Jim Crow comes roaring back.

This has always been why Chief Justice John Roberts wants to take away the Voting Rights Act

Is he just gonna steal $230 million dollars from us?
