Tapper: Angus King said standing up to Donald Trump didn't work.

Sanders: Maybe Angus didn't notice the elections on Tuesday. I thought that they worked pretty well.

None of the Dem Senators (or Democratic-caucusing) who voted yes on the CR are worried about reelection:

• Dick Durbin – IL – Retiring 2026

• Catherine Cortez Masto – NV – Up 2028

• Jacky Rosen – NV – Up 2030

• John Fetterman – PA – Up 2028

• Maggie Hassan – NH – Up 2028

1/2

“Hopefully the Republicans may hear us” may be the dumbest sentence I’ve heard uttered since her colleague from Maine said Trump “learned his lesson” after his first impeachment.

"Early on this year, a lot of people made promises. 'I will do anything I can to stop Trump,' or 'We have to fight back with everything we’ve got.' I took those promises seriously, but I guess some of my colleagues [like @shaheen.senate.gov & @hassan.senate.gov] didn’t." -@gallego.senate.gov

"They voted to advance a funding resolution that yielded nothing on the ACA tax credits, reinforcing a pattern of weakness by Democrats that leaves millions vulnerable."

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.

@hassan.senate.gov and @shaheen.senate.gov undermined what little power the Democrats had... for virtually nothing. An empty promise is not a deal. #nhpolitics #incompetence

I was elected 6 weeks ago. Speaker Mike Johnson refuses to swear me in. Speaker Mike Johnson refuses to swear me into office, an unprecedented and starkly undemocratic position that sets a very dangerous precedent.

If the Anti-Christ were real, and if the Anti-Christ appeared, I would wager that he or she would not know they were the Anti-Christ, but would likely think they were a billionaire named Peter Thiel.

Pls send a message to this effect to your reps & senators:

Trump's behavior has hit a new low with the razing of the East Wing of the White House, and that's only one dozens of horrific recent moves. IMPEACH THIS PRESIDENT. Please: Do what you must to build consensus and then take action. #IMPEACH
