Just wondering. Is there a lip reader who can supply information as to what Epstein and Trump were saying to each other in that famous clip of the years ago party where the two are pointing and laughing?

What will you bet that they have been scrubbed to meaninglessness ("national security") or that a Republican who signed will flip?

The fix is in.

Ghislaine Maxwell, transferred to a club med prison after Trump's lawyer met with her (and she likely spilled what she knows about Trump), is now being waited on "hand and foot" by guards and is getting her commutation application ready with help from the warden.

Airlines’ Favorite Democrats Just Voted To End The Shutdown The Senate Dems who voted to end the shutdown without extending ACA subsidies took in a third of airlines’ PAC-driven election spending last year.

Told ya. There it is.

I don’t care whether a politician identifies as “moderate,” “conservative,” “progressive,” or anything. What I care about is whether they faithfully represent citizens rather than donors. And if they don’t up to make health care affordable for all, they aren’t doing that.

this is literally never not accurate

I want some fucking answers about how eight Senate Democrats agreed to put our money in the pockets of coup-plotting Senate Republicans.

Schumer may have voted no but people are tired of the DC dance.

✅ The 8 senators admit they kept him in the loop
✅ The 8 senators that voted yes are not up for reelection
✅ His No. 2 voted yes

We need a new politics with new faces for working people.

There's an entire unified house caucus who's against the senate dems "deal"
To place a blanket blame on all dems is kinda irresponsible. Meanwhile dems in the senate have done done this twice to the house dems.

Murphy

Can’t win if you don’t fight. Get a new leader.

One of the main impediments is Dem leadership + the betrayal of ALL of us this week by the Dem Senate scheme re the shutdown. This ISN'T infighting its genuine and justified outrage at what Dem Sen caucus has done. WE don't need to unify. Dem legislators need to unify around what Americans want.

The Dem party WILL NOT WIN in November if they don't make key changes. Should not be dismissed as infighting. We all feel betrayed because we're betrayed +playing the "unity card" wont work when Dem Senators pull a scheme like this. Its not just 8- it goes deeper +many wont buy it now or in Nov.

I'll get back to "party unity" as soon as the Senate Minority Leader tells us if he voted for the Democratic party nominee for mayor of his city.

I'm tired of party unity only ever running one way.

Please consider not using a term like "centrist" for those Cavers. It suggests that any alternative positions are extreme. The 8 are NOT reflecting the majority sentiment. Calling them centrist shifts the Overton window right. (He who controls the definition of centrist controls the yardstick.)

Hey, @schumer.senate.gov!

Americans gave you a clear assignment last Tuesday, and you didn’t understand it.

Now, we are giving you another one: Step down and allow a Democrat with a spine to unite your caucus for the good of all Americans.

Remember what you told Biden? Now, tell it to yourself.

FURIOUS at the 8 Democrats who are caving to Trump & MAGA? FLOOD THEM WITH CALLS. It’s not over till it’s over, if one of them flips, this catastrophic surrender will not take place.

Hit the phones! Go to PleaseGrowASpine.org to amplify on social media!!

And, if you can, show up at their offices.

Quite something. I stuck my neck out for you Sen Thune- is a Dem strategy all of a sudden???

Schumer should've been gone a year ago. Every time he's on TV, Dems scream "Be done with you!" This will only accelerate that. #ChuckSchumer #DemocraticParty #Politics #PoliticalCommentary #Election2024 #Reels Chuck Schumer Should Go - Analyzing the Political Moment

I'm a SNAP recipient... for the last month I was tightening my belt, doing my best to eat cheaper and eating less so I'd have a little left over to help get me through when payments were cut. It was all for nothing. Fuck the dems who supported this.

@schumer.senate.gov must go. Period.

Democracy is dying and he gives up to a dictator.

Bye.

There will be another 60 vote Friday* on the garbage shutdown deal. If we can convince just one Senator from the 52 republicans and 8 Dems that voted yes to flip, we could still stop this. Please jump on the phone today, call them, and share this widely.

*If all goes by the regular schedule

They aren't "moderate"
Moderate suggests reasonable and fair and implies that any contrary position must be an extreme of one kind or another.

How absolutely pathetic, your voters expected you to hold the line for their basic healthcare & food benefits. This was just surrender.

Every Senate Dem that joined Republicans to pass this sold the American people out & we should make sure they have no future in public office.

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.

🚨🚨Hey folks apparently we still have a chance to stop this deal but we need to get one of these 8 to flip their votes: Durbin, Rosen, Cortez Masto, King, Kaine, Fetterman, Shaheen, Hassan. If one of them is yours, please get on the phone right now and tell them to reverse their vote. 202-224-3121🚨🚨

A reminder - last March, republicans promised to restore $1.1B in funding to DC in exchange for funding the government, and Mike Johnson never took it up in the House.
