At best, Chuck Schumer can’t control his caucus.

At worse, Chuck Schumer thinks we’re idiots who can’t see through his cowardice and complicity.

Respectfully, it’s not “centrists vs progressives.” That’s the old way of thinking. It’s “institutionalists/establishment” vs “populists/fighters.”

Ezra Levin on Bluesky: “Important to understand this. There's a reasonable chance that your Dem Senator who voted against it and is acting mad now was in on the play. It's the same reason why they scheduled the surrender for AFTER the election this week. They didn't want people pissed at Dems right before an election.”

This isn’t just about the eight Senate Democrats who surrendered. 👇

People, please don’t forget that the holiday season is fast approaching us; and, the Democrats who voted against extending the ACA subsidies are more concerned about profits than people and their healthcare.

Some Christians don’t realize that Jesus Christ had more problems with religious leaders and tax collectors than anyone in the Bible. They were thieves and hypocrites. Most mega Churches are pastored by pulpit pimps who are businessmen/women who only become pious on Sunday morning.

1) Fuck these Senators.
2) This measure now swings over to the House, if memory serves. Will Shitler’s Hand Puppet call the House back in? He MUST swear in Adelita Grijalva!
3) The 218th signature to #ReleaseTheEpsteinFiles will show us just how badly Lil’Mikey wants to reopen the Govt.

My husband planned to retire in December. I'm not eligible for Medicare until Aug so I planned to get an Obamacare policy. I found one in Oct that was $800/month. Now it's $2000/month.

So now my husband isn't going to retire. I hate Trump & GOP so much.

New in PN: Marjorie Taylor Greene flees Trump's sinking ship

"Whatever her motivation, it's clear MTG believes it's to her advantage to defy Trump in ways it was not before. Trump once seemed invincible; now being associated with him seems like a one-way ticket to electoral Siberia."

I have always rinsed my chicken in cold water prior to cooking it. I rinse all meat prior to cooking it and it never made me sick. My mother rinsed all meat and chicken prior to cooking them — she died from natural causes at the age of 92.

#GVerse WHAT HAVE WE LEARNED DURING THE SHUTDOWN:

America now knows the Republicans fought tooth and nail against paying out the SNAP benefits. We watched the Gilded Ballroom being defended by the moron that threatened to punish states that paid SNAP.
