These eight senators are pathetic

“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.

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.

Senate reaches deal on ending the shutdown Democrats are coalescing around a bipartisan agreement to fund the government.

This is not a deal — it's an empty promise.

Trump and his Republican Congress are making healthcare more expensive for the middle class and ending it for working families.

Time for Democrats to stand tall for affordable healthcare. www.politico.com/news/2025/11...

Tonight was a very bad night.

Schumer’s resume:

- gets outfoxed by McConnell during two Trump impeachments

- consistently fails to whip the vote when it matters

- folds like a cheap lawn chair under pressure

- thumbs his nose at new progressive candidates

It’s like we brought reading glasses to a gun fight.

This is why we wanted you to fight for it....because they won't let a vote happen.

But sure dude just cave and lose all the momentum the elections just gave the rest of the country against maga.

Now, the nation has to go through this same argument all over again in Jan/Feb 2026 when the CR expires

Forgive me if I’m late to the party… but hear me out.

Letterkenny and Broken Lizard crossover.

Meme shows Trump standing facing away from a moment of need. Behind him a group of people have to rushed to help someone.

No, please. Don't strain yourself. We'll do it. 🙄

If I had to lock myself in, I’d say 6-3 against tariffs but with a clear way for Trump to try them again but he has to call them “license fees.”

But I’m not confident in that prediction because Roberts and ACB are squirrels

This Republican shutdown is the longest government shutdown in our nation's history.

And Republicans would rather keep it shut down than ensure affordable health care.

It is so shameful.

Your stop replies are much nicer than mine.

Instead of asking the Speaker of the House if he has a view on <critical separation-of-powers QOTD>, maybe reporters should start asking him if he reads any newspapers or otherwise informs himself on those matters to which we might think the Speaker of the House ought to be paying attention?

Nearly 8 in 10 Americans agree that spending by wealthy donors and corporations in our elections gives rise to corruption — including majorities of Republican and independent voters.

Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.

We must overturn Citizens United.

Elon Musk Really Doesn't Get 'The Lord of the Rings' Musk has recently used Tolkien references to push anti-immigration messaging, as has the Department of Homeland security. They've got it all backwards.

Actual Tolkien nerd @johnsemley3000.bsky.social went deep on how poorly Elon Musk, MAGA, and other right-wing tech bros understand the Lord of the Rings. And can we all just admire this art by @anjalinair.bsky.social: www.wired.com/story/elon-m...

Elie Mystal on why the GOP needs the illusion of a Trump third term

One fact to add: SNAP benefits have been maintained in every previous shutdown. This is a choice they have made, not an inevitability.

AFGE should be ashamed of themselves. Who the fuck do they think will stand up for them if not the Dems? I’m a fed and am so glad I’m not part of that rinky-dink shit balloon.

Sounds like it’s the GOP that’s playing politics with people’s livelihoods. Hold the line, Dems.

Here’s the original clip of Ronald Reagan from April 25, 1987, where he delivered a complete and total rebuke against tariffs. Trump's calling Reagan’s words here “FAKE” and “fraudulent.” They’re 100% real. And the original clip is actually far worse for Trump, as much is left out of the ad:

This mother fucker was so scared of being prayed for he fucking pissed himself. Again…A man praying for him made him piss his fucking PANTS!!!!

Trump Said to Demand Justice Dept. Pay Him $230 Million for Past Cases

NEW: Trump is going to steal $230M in taxpayer dollars by having his DOJ pay him a settlement for his legal trouble. Watch. www.nytimes.com/2025/10/21/u...

Dems, I bet of you, STOP VOTING FOR TRUMP JUDGES JESUS FUCKING CHRIST

Villa Vita, New Hope, PA

He was so butthurt by millions protesting his authoritarian regime, he posted an AI clip of him in a fighter jet dumping crap on people exercising their constitutional rights.

It’s the kind of reaction you would expect from a mentally unhinged lunatic or a petulant child.

Not a President.

This is what solidarity looks like. Together, we will win.

The world joined us and said, “No Kings.”

Met some guys at #NoKings NYC who are definitely not immigrants, so Stephen Miller should be happy.
