I have to hand it to them, it's an incredible bit to publicly lose a game of chicken, admit that's what happened, and then spend the next day lecturing everyone about courage and tenacity

This hidden provision is so crooked and selfish, it doesn't even apply to US Representatives. Just US Senators.

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.

This isn't "internal recriminations." It's voters expressing overwhelming opposition to what the people they elected to represent them are doing, and anyone--either in journalism or politics--who characterizes it as infighting is either not seeing and hearing what's right in front of them or lying.

So inflation and cost of living has been going up every month since this administration took over…this administration that promised it would all come down on day 1?

Now it’s because of the previous administration?

The one that had nothing to do with tariffing the entire planet?

Makes sense.

One CEO called the idea a “disgusting insult” and “economic genocide against the Gen Z generation.” 👀

FAA Bans Most Private Jets At 12 Major Airports—But Some Say It Doesn’t Go Far Enough Hundreds of American millionaires say the FAA should have grounded private jets before cutting flights for commercial airliners.

Voters want a Democratic Party that fights back against the forces that have rigged the system and made their lives more difficult.

A party that comforts the afflicted and afflicts the comfortable —not a party that buckles and capitulates.

When will party leadership learn this lesson?

In the most predictable development ever, Mike Johnson is not committing to hold a House vote on ACA subsidies

These senators who voted away access to healthcare for tens of millions of Americans really have the audacity to self righteously posture & pretend that they didn't just bow to the administration who has proven that they do not care if Americans starve or die from lack of healthcare access.

Pardoning your co-conspirators to own the libs!

Most of their charges are state charges, so this doesn’t actually help them. It’s gross, but it doesn’t really move the needle.

Post from Pete Buttigieg that reads: It's a bad deal. Everyday life - making it better and more affordable - must always be our bottom line. For months, I’ve been hearing from people bracing for their health insurance bills to skyrocket - so much that some will lose coverage altogether. Some say they simply haven't even opened their letter yet, dreading the bad news. Any deal that fails to address this directly is a bad deal.

JEFFRIES: “.. We can't let a handful of random Senators take us off track."

Michael Bennet: I really am a Bolshevik. I believe we should provide universal healthcare to all Americans as a right. There is no reason not to do it in the richest country in the world, especially if we can do it at half of the cost of care we are providing now.

From street marches to court battles to the ballot box - we’ve challenged the power of this exceptionally unpopular president.

The lesson from each success we've had is that we need to ramp the political pressure up, always up, not back down, now more than ever.

Phang: These firings were illegal in the first fucking place.

It’s like the Republicans are supposed to think that they’ve now done something right by not doing what is illegal in the first place.

A whistleblower tells House Judiciary Democrats that convicted sex offender Ghislaine Maxwell is in the process of seeking a commutation of her 20-year prison sentence from Donald Trump. tinyurl.com/582addcc

Many Americans are hurting right now because of the shutdown, but caving to Republicans won’t end the hurt.

Trump and his lapdogs continue to assert that they alone have the power to slash whatever programs they don’t like.

Deals with this regime are meaningless.

I received this email about Democrats caving to end the shutdown from one of the SNAP recipients I spoke to:

I got back to my office after the vote last night and recorded this. There's no way to sugarcoat what happened. And my fear is that Trump gets stronger, not weaker, because of this acquiescence. I'm angry - like you. But I choose to keep fighting.

RFK Jr: "President Trump is revising the dietary guidelines which is gonna dramatically change the food culture in this country."

🚨This 16 year old was living a normal life until this administration took over the country. ICE is the enemy of humanity, decency, integrity, and all that used to represent this country. Meanwhile, Trump is building a private army, one that will be more ruthless and violent. 1/2

What a great long-term recruiting pitch: come do this high-stress job, you may have to work for free at some point — and if you try to feed your family with a side gig, you’ll be punished. 🤡

Come on! We know members of the Senate are “free agents,” but the fact is Schumer didn’t hold his caucus together & isn’t doing his job as Leader

We’re supposed to believe it’s a coincidence that none of the Dems who voted yes on the CR have anything to lose in 2026?

@schumer.senate.gov STEP DOWN!

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.

Piece by Piece, FCC Dismantles Its Prison and Jail Phone Call Price Caps With its November 6 order, the FCC continues to steadily default on essentially every major provision of its historic regulations from 2024.

Speaker Johnson has literally said he's "not promising anyone anything."

For once, I believe him.

There’s still time to call senators. Let me explain. Sorry not sorry about the cat. He’s also really upset about this deal.
