Hey, yo, if your Reps or Senators are on social media posting about Veterans Day and all that TYFYS bullshit but they did things like vote against the PACT Act or vote to decrease the VA’s budget, you should be calling them out publicly. Don’t let them get away with that shit.

Wanton murder is a deal-breaker for some democracies.
Who knew?

Abramoff also assisted Andrade in generating media attention for AML Bitcoin by hiring foreign advisors to set up meetings for Andrade with foreign government and private sector contacts, including in Panama, London, continental Europe, and San Francisco. Andrade and Abramoff misleadingly characterized the meetings as promising business opportunities with partners imminently interested in exploring or partnering with AML Bitcoin. In truth, these potential partners—such as the Port of San Francisco, the Panama Maritime Authority, and the Panama Canal—had no interest in using or working with AML Bitcoin. Abramoff also worked with Andrade to generate media attention for AML Bitcoin by falsely stating that the NFL and NBC had reviewed and rejected AML Bitcoin’s Super Bowl advertisement for being too controversial when neither entity had actually rejected the advertisement. Abramoff and Andrade perpetuated this false Super Bowl rejection campaign to drive attention and investment to the AML Bitcoin project. Separately, in 2017, Abramoff engaged in lobbying efforts in Washington, D.C. in connection with the marijuana industry. Abramoff did not register as a lobbyist, despite knowing that he was required to do so, and he took affirmative steps to not register as a lobbyist.

In proof we're all getting old, Jack Abramoff is getting sentenced again, this time for kind of crypto-related fraud that has become fashionable in certain DC quarters.

Both sides rec probation, in part bc of age (66) which seems young for crypto fraud.

Not if we had Medicare for all.

ACA subsidies are cheaper ($350B/10 yrs) than the ‘subsidy’ to corrupt corporations for employer-sponsored insurance (ESI), “the third largest expenditure in the sprawling federal tax code” & “estimated at $5.9 TRILLION over the next decade“ that benefits “upper-middle and high-income households..”

Rick Scott Demands More Cuts to Medicaid, Which His Company Allegedly Scammed Scott says his proposal to slash $313 billion more from Medicaid in Trump’s Big Beautiful Bill will protect the program “for those who truly need it.”

But of course. www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

Jeffrey Epstein co-conspirator Ghislaine Maxwell plans to seek commutation from Trump, whistleblower says The whistleblower came forward with the information to Democrats on the House Judiciary Committee.

Should be a huge news story. Again, why is Maxwell getting special treatment? Why is she in a minimum security camp? How come Trump didnt rule out a pardon?

Where are the Epstein Files?

What a great few weeks it’s been for people once pardoned by Trump.

The harmful economic policies of Trump and Republicans are crushing the American people.

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.

@democrats.org are dead to me, f’cking caving cowards.
@demsocialists.bsky.social or @workingfamilies.org are the only people I will support, until @schumer.senate.gov resigns because he is such a f’cking pathetic POS, just like the 8 scumbags who gave up everything for nothing🖕🏽

How naive are some of these people? FFS, Republicans aren't coming to the table. Never.

Let’s help TN flip this seat! @aftynbehn.bsky.social

Van Epps ignores families struggling with rising healthcare costs & shuttered hospitals. Aftyn Behn is focused on fairness & family. She stands for solutions that protect farmers, supports working families& keeps communities strong. Don’t let billionaires decide Tennessee’s future

Tonight was a very bad night.

This is not what they actually say. This is what they used to say, in the long ago before times when Shaheen learned to do politics. There is no kumbaya median voter anymore. The question you get knocking doors is not "why can't you all just work together?" it's "why didn't / will you fight harder?

You SUCK, f’ck ‘bipartisanship’🤮with unAmerican fascist filth republiscum. Mealy-mouthed Dems always fail us.
You ‘moderates’ with schumer’s blessing are why millions stayed home last year.
You NEVER really do fight for us, but enjoy your parties with your rich donors and republiscum ‘colleagues’🖕🏽

You gotta wonder why Democrats thought it necessary to cave at nearly midnight on a Sunday of a holiday weekend. Because the optics are shit.

Primary your local Democratic senator

This is really good to see: Miki Sherrill just put out a statement sharply criticizing the Senate Dems' pending cave in the government shutdown, ripping it as "malpractice" and a betrayal of the people who are "counting on us to fight for them." Sherrill knows what drove her victory. Wake up, Dems.

Resign!
Resign, so we can replace you with a real fighter who doesn't cave to fascist Republiscum every time.
Resign, you can go to the creepy parties with your scum-sucking wall St mafia donors.
Resign, so @governor.ny.gov can replace you NOW!
@zohrankmamdani.bsky.social is much better than you!

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...

I had a great chat with the ladies of @ivehaditpodcast.bsky.social about my race for Congress. It’s time we take back the House from the Republican Doormat leadership. #TeamWellman @wellmanformo.bsky.social youtu.be/ply2-fkiSIE?...

Trump is a pestilence upon America and a cancer within his own party. 😳👇

The only republiscum health care plan is…hurry up and die!
