screenshot of text from Adam Serwer in The Atlantic: "The secret fear of the morally depraved is that virtue is actually common, and that they're the ones who are alone. In Minnesota, all of the ideological cornerstones of MAGA have been proved false at once. Minnesotans, not the armed thugs of ICE and the Border Patrol, are brave. Minnesotans have shown that their community is socially cohesive - because of its diversity and not in spite of it. Minnesotans have found and loved one another in a world atomized by social media, where empty men have tried to fill their lonely soul with lies about their own inherent superiority. Minnesotans have preserved everything worthwhile about "Western civilization," while armed brutes try to tear it down by force."

Done! Thanks for sharing.

I used the app to cancel and it dawned on me I never got confirmation - had to chat with them directly via the web but that worked.

Cancelled as soon as I saw your post. Thanks!

Tonight was a very bad night.

Hard to see @schumer.senate.gov being able to stay in leadership after this or in the senate, he was not the man for this moment

Every single Dem that caved and agreed to this deal needs to be primaried and voted out. They are cowards who wasted the last month for a half baked promise vote a month from now.

Dem base that gave them a blue tsunami: DON'T CAVE

Majority of Dem elected officials: DON'T CAVE

The majority of Americans blame the GOP for the shutdown and higher costs...

8 Dem Centrists (and you better believe Schumer knows what's up): Nah, We'll cave.

I guarantee you calls came from donors.

Senator Schumer is no longer effective and should be replaced. If you can’t lead the fight to stop healthcare premiums from skyrocketing for Americans, what will you fight for?

Remember when some of us said the Democratic leadership would take all the wrong lessons from the blue tsunami and squander all the goodwill?

Here you go.

So @schumer.senate.gov really thinks we don’t understand that he orchestrated this by getting senators not up for re-election to vote yes?

NEW from @votersoftomorrow.org:

“Either through complicity or incompetence, Chuck Schumer once again proved he cannot provide the type of leadership that young Americans demand. It is clear he must step down as caucus leader.”

Senate Democrats Just Made a Huge Mistake The shutdown was hurting Trump. Ending it helps him.

"Democrats could have held the line on the shutdown, and spent weeks watching Trump’s approval ratings fall," writes @jonathanbchait.bsky.social
Instead, he argues, they're making a mistake by giving in:

This is a bad deal, and the old way of doing things is clearly not working.

We need new leaders in the Senate.

Incredible betrayal of those responsible for the huge wins this past week. The strategy of hiding the no votes behind those that are either retiring or not up for reelection is almost worse. Either you have lost control of the senate or you coordinated this result - until you're out - I'm out! ✌️

We are so fucked as a country and I am gutted tonight. There is no real resistance to the right. The left being passive is being in agreement. Strategically picking which members vote no so there isn't an immediate consequence for those yes votes makes it so all democrats will deservedly pay.

Subscribed! Thanks for the tip.
