So, why did you give into that cruelty. Nothing you just did tonight decreases or changes their cruelty. It strengthened it.

@rosen.senate.gov what you should have done is gotten moderate republicans ( although there have not been any for 8 years) to move to the democratic side and show some spine. Instead, you gave in. Shame on you

@rosen.senate.gov you should not have agreed to a ridiculous short-term continuing resolution that gives nothing back. Short-term gain for long-term pain for our country. You got nothing for giving up your party. For weakening our country. For strengthening the fascists.

@shaheen.senate.gov you are retiring and had nothing to lose. Instead, you’ve given into the fascist republican party destroying our country. Your give in vote weakens our country and only strengthens the fascists. More people want you to be united in strength. You divided us

@cortezmasto.senate.gov opening the govt by giving into the fascist republican party does not help. Your piddling short term gain with a measly couple months continuing resolution will result in a long term harm to our country. Democrats always give in to our detriment. Shame on you

@fetterman.senate.gov its not an allegiance to party. Its allegiance to our country and democracy and constitution and your actions and vote tonight weaken the guards of our country. You have strengthened those intent on destroying our country. Shame on you, again.

@fetterman.senate.gov you’re wrong to align with the Republicans. You are wrong to give into them and the short term gain of doing so will increase the longterm pain of doing so. You are not protecting America or Americans by this give away. Republicans are dishonest. You hurt us more giving in.

@shaheen.senate.gov you should not vote with republicans. Your actions will not help the vulnerable people you think you are helping. Short-term gain for longer term pain is the result of your foolhardy vote. Make them come to the f’ing table and don’t give the fight away. SHAME ON YOU

@senatorhassan.govpeeps.us do nOt give in to Republicans. We will lose longterm for your foolish short-term gain. No one you think you are protecting will be protected by your foolhardiness in giving into republicans. Shame on you

@peters.senate.gov shame on you fir giving in to the Republicans.

@kaine.senate.gov dont give in to the republicans. Short-term gain for a long term loss. I am disappointed

All i can say is FUCK YOU to all the Democrats who are giving into the Republicans. You should lose you seats in your next election. This shit down is the fault of the Republicans. You should not give in. Yes, pple are hurting but what you are doing hurts us all more in the longrun. Don’t cave!

Democrats must press on! Do not give in. Hold steady. Hold together.

Keep steady Democrats. Do not open until there is a form commitment on healthcare costs.

Incase anyone is unsure- the government shutdown is the result of Republican failure to negotiate with Dems. If they can’t pass the bill alone ( and they cant) they must negotiate with dems. Until then, keep it shut.

I know its hard, but the Dems can’t cave on the shutdown. The Republicans will never negotiate the ACA subsidies if the dems agree to a clean continuing resolution.

I find it funny when right-wingers boohoo the language and words of “ left-wingers” (i.e. someone who does not agree 100% with them) but feel entitled to spew their own hateful, evil, vile lies and comments about anything or body “liberal.”

companies now owned in part by TRUMP? The Office of the President? The US GOVERNMENT?
1. 10% equity stake in Intel, $INTL
2. 15% equity stake in MP Materials, $MP
3. 10% equity stake in Lithium Americas, $LAC
4. 10% equity stake in Trilogy Metals, $TMC
5. A “golden share” in US Steel Corporation

US is moving towards a tyrannical kleptocracy with the office of the president having a golden share in US steel, 10% share of Trilogy Metals (mining in alaska)and 10% in intel. Who’s next?

Our country went haywire when the courts accepted corporations as and with the same rights as people. If one attempts to limit activity to individuals they can be held to have “unjustifiably distinguished” between natural persons and corporations. But people are real. Corporations are an abstract.

Abortion pollution???? Give me a break!

Now the GOP wants to invade women’s privacy by checking their wastewater for mifepristone.

The quickest way for the Nobel Prize Committee to undercut the significance and prestige of its peace prize would be to award it to Donald Trump. I’d lay odds, if Trump is not named, the Arab-Israeli conflict renews and the cease-fire ends. If not and it lasts, MAYBE a consideration next time.

😭

Let noone be fooled or misled. The US Government shut-down and subsequent permanent “furlough” of employees not involved in funded government programs that do not “align” with the trump agenda and the subsequent stealing of those program operating funds is 100% due to trump and Republican acts.

Pennsylvania is the only state in the nation without a budget. Once again, it is the republicans holding our children, schools and seniors hostage to their radical ideology. Not willing to let a Dem gov spend money bcs they want the surplus for tax cuts and themselves. That’s the crime.

If the government shuts down, so be it. It already has not been working for the last 10 years. The Republicans have broken the norms of democratic statesmanship for the last 10-12 years, moving us from immature tantrumic behavior into authoritarianism.

If “hate speech” is not protected speech, per Pam Biondi, then most Maga republicans should be prosecuted.

For Trump, MAGA, and ultra-conservatives, freedoms— speech, religion, access to guns— are not for All Americans. The freedoms of America, of the constitution, are not for Democrats, or brown people or liberals or progressives or comedians. They are only for them. PEOPLE WAKE THE FUCK UP

I never heard of Charlie Kirk before he was killed. But, of everything i ever have heard about him since, he is not a savior or an angel or even a very nice person. He spouted hate and lies, division and violence.
