Senators look at Trump's shameless corruption and say "give us some of that"

Absolutely correct

It is not enough to purge these Dem traitors from the party.

We must pursue them to make enjoying their bribes sheer misery.

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.

She contradicts her first statement.

She has a guarantee then there was never a guarantee.

@shaheen.senate.gov votes for Trump's agenda more than any senator except @hassan.senate.gov & @fetterman.senate.gov She strategically misses votes to enable GOP legislation passage.

Want a party that actually fights back? Run for office. We’ll help you. runforwhat.net

They know, they just don't care. @shaheen.senate.gov @hassan.senate.gov @schumer.senate.gov @booker.senate.gov @gallego.senate.gov @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social delivered votes to the GOP for Laken Riley, ICE disappearing people, and civil rights violations.

Purge the GOP-aligned faction of Dems in Congress, like @shaheen.senate.gov @hassan.senate.gov @peters.senate.gov @gallego.senate.gov @booker.senate.gov @schumer.senate.gov

Had it not been for their support, we wouldn't have ICE assaulting people or concentration camps.

Senators like @hassan.senate.gov @shaheen.senate.gov @peters.senate.gov are doing the exact same thing they've done all year: get payoffs for pro-Trump voting.

We must purge the GOP contingency of Congress Dems like @booker.senate.gov @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social @schumer.senate.gov

Get rid of the pro-GOP faction of Democrats.

Go check how often @shaheen.senate.gov and @hassan.senate.gov voted for Trump nominees or GOP legislation. They're two of the worst offenders. Let's not forget @peters.senate.gov aka Mr. Fill My Pockets who did the same thing.

It was at this moment that Ali's corner man Chuck Schumer threw in the towel.

@schumer.senate.gov is biggest Democrat liability. Chuck doesn't lead for the USA. His loyalty is to a foreign country.

Tim Mellon bribing Trump & the GOP.

They only care about child molesters.

continues to be hard to say why the White House is taking such a beating for the shutdown when they keep announcing new voluntary actions they say explicitly are meant to increase pain to pressure Dems and then lots of bad things happen and people get sad.

No.

Last night, the Trump Administration sent a letter suggesting Wisconsin should return our FoodShare payments.

My response ⬇️

I want you to understand what it is like to live in Chicago during this time. Every day my phone buzzes. It is a neighborhood group: four people were kidnapped at the corner drugstore. A friend a mile away sends a Slack message: she was at the scene when masked men assaulted and abducted two people on the street. A plumber working on my pipes is distraught, and I find out that two of his employees were kidnapped that morning. A week later it happens again. An email arrives. Agents with guns have chased a teacher into the school where she works. They did not have a warrant. They dragged her away, ignoring her and her colleagues’ pleas to show proof of her documentation. That evening I stand a few feet from the parents of Rayito de Sol and listen to them describe, with anguish, how good Ms. Diana was to their children. What it is like to have strangers with guns traumatize your kids. For a teacher to hide a three-year-old child for fear they might be killed. How their relatives will no longer leave the house. I hear the pain and fury in their voices, and I wonder who will be next. Understand what it is to pray in Chicago.

@hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social could easily instruct House Reps to follow suit. The pressure from publicity alone would be worth it.

All Democrats should copy this.

Total agreement. The @nytimes.com stenography pool relies upon the tired "anonymous source" gambit for reporting.

Morally wrong.

The Gospel of Professional Christian Mike Johnson:

They need to demand the House go to work.

Thr GOP work 20 days in five months and are collecting a paycheck.

They are starving veterans and killing unions Trump and the Republican Doormat Congress have decided withholding food from children, disabled, the elderly, and veterans is a winning strategy. They are wrong.

White male privilege? Tom is "color blind" and does not believe he has privilege.

@jamestalarico.bsky.social is a hot topic among my highly conservative TX friends and family. For them, the G in God comes before the GOP, and Talarico resonates with them.
