This deal to reopen the government is fucking disgraceful.

Tens of millions will lose their healthcare. Trump will be emboldened.

This is exactly what’s wrong with Democratic Party leadership and why we need more people in Congress who will actually hold the line.

Rhodes: Trump should “call us up as a militia, order us all to come together in our counties under his command, which gives you complete legal sanction to do what you're doing”

Oh, now it all suddenly becomes clear.

The President wouldn't last five minutes as an air traffic controller, and after everything they've been through - and the way this administration has treated them from Day One - he has no business shitting on them now.

80% of Democratic voters want a new leader in the Senate.

Does that matter at all to Democratic senators?

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

Maybe we need a new rally sign:

NO KINGS

and

NO QUISLINGS

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.

The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.

People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives.

And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

New: Sens. King, Shaheen, Hassan led negotiations on a deal that will have enough Democratic support to pass in the Senate, I'm told. This is the package: - CR thru Jan 30 - A vote on a ACA bill by a December, on a DEM bill - Minibus WHICH INCLUDES reversal of shutdown RIFs and back pay and protections against them happening in the future PLUS SNAP is funded through the fiscal year 26

Dems have spent the past two months saying they're fighting to address the crisis of spiking healthcare costs and now they're caving for a deal that does nothing to address healthcare costs ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

The Democrats who bent the knee to MAGAts will not be forgotten or be reelected, if the MAGAts haven't killed us all by that time.

This is straight bullshit.
THEY GOT NOTHING! AFTER ALL THIS! NOTHING!
WTF is wrong with these Dems?

Reporter: What do you say to your colleagues who say this isn't a fight, this is a capitulation?

Shaheen: We have a guaranteed vote by a guaranteed date…

Reporter: There is no guarantee that this will become law.

Shaheen: There was never a guarantee that it would be become law.

BREAKING: We go now live to the U.S. Senate where Democrats have decided to believe Republicans will honor their promise to vote for an #ACA extension in December.
