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.

People were donating to food banks in communities across the country. Many SNAP recipients who were struggling felt the momentum. They too need healthcare & many didn't want us to cave. 7M of us didn't march to cave. We didn't win every election last week to cave. Shame on the cavers. Vote them out.

Sprained my ankle at the gym today, which confirms my long-held belief that exercise is dangerous and naps are safe.

Welp, since the Dems caved, there’s no excuse for the House to be out of session. Time to swear in Grijalva and vote to release the Epstein files. Or is there some way the Dems will intentionally fuck that up to?

Pay attention to what Democratic candidates are saying right now. Find and support the fighters. Having a spine must be a litmus test issue in 2026 and beyond.

We just won on Tuesday…

This is so insane. #MedicareForAllNOW

agreeing to make a terrible deal while your main opponent is quite literally being boo'd on live tv by an entire stadium of people is the kind of political instinct you'd normally only find in a 3 week old dead goldfish

We are being led by absolute cowards

This is a bad deal, and the old way of doing things is clearly not working.

We need new leaders in the Senate.

So we have all but a blue tsunami and then within days we cower?

Wow.

My family has been without half our income for 40 days. It has been.. very hard.

We are willing to feel that pain so people can have health care next year, or to undo these illegal recissions.

We are not willing to have been put through this for NOTHING.

Senators on the brink of retirement who lived full, wealthy lives and never feared the loss of their own healthcare voting for their constituents to die from their inability to afford the same is treasonous

The majority of Americans are good. We have heart. We have compassion. When we see others struggle, we want to lend a hand.

For too long, we’ve been divided and pitted against each other by those who crave obscene wealth and power.

Let’s change that. One election at a time.

Australia has so much solar that it's offering everyone free electricity Australia's extensive solar power penetration makes so much energy that the government wants to offer free electricity at peak hours.

Australia has so much electricity from solar power that it is going to start offering free electricity to everyone for at least three hours during the day as the wholesale price of power goes negative

Not a single adoption inquiry yet for Baby Sneffels & Baby Ferrata 😿🙀

It’s so unusual 🤔 Guessing high supply/low demand:
* Shelters are overflowing right now
* People are hunkering down & saying “not now”
* Maybe folks just aren’t aware how adorably perfect this bonded pair is?!? 😻

Daily Reminder: Social Security is OUR money!

You think we weren’t prepared for the last pandemic ….

Sixty years ago today, Medicare and Medicaid were signed into law - securing health care for millions and saving countless lives. As GOP politicians try to tear them down, it's up to us to protect and expand these programs for Americans who rely on them today and for future generations.

Crickets ❤️Love to hear them chirp. It reminds me of staying over at my grandma’s with the window open at night when I was young.
