Et tu @velshi.com? Please don't have Chris Matthews on any more. He was awful when he was forced to resign and he's still awful. I turned the TV off this morning while he was on

Just now catching up with the Epstein stuff, crazy!

Wow

Jeffrey Epstein to Lawrence Summers (both of whom are very bad people):

“i have met some very bad people , none as bad as trump. not one decent cell in his body. so yes- dangerous”

I was refreshing constantly for a while 🤣

It's looking good!

If you’ve got a Senate Democrat who is not calling for new leadership, they’re part of the problem.

We should no longer trust Senate Dems who decline to come out against the leadership that led us here. Until proven otherwise, we should assume they were in on the game to fool their own supporters.

Indeed! I'm on vacation but I put a reminder on my phone to check election results tonight. It's looking good, hope it keeps going in her direction

Yay!

Dem Senators, you need to shun and shame the Traitorous 8 (otherwise it just shows that they are taking the fall for the caucus as a whole), and you need to get rid of weak and feckless Chuck Schumer as leader

Since the Democrats worked extra hard to hide who actually supported this, I think the No Kings/Resistance position should be to primary every Democrat unless they publicly call for Schumer's ouster this week

Either they go into total rebellion mode, which they won't, or the people will

I know it shouldn't matter, but it feels especially bad and wrong that 4 of the 8 Dem senators (half!) voting for this mess are women. Feels like even more of a betrayal coming from women, who should know better!

Nevada has to go too, both their Senators voted for this along with the 2 from NH!

This looks awfully intentional.

So... is peacefully overthrowing the government a thing? Because I really don't see voting our way out of this.

Exactly! Which is why I think they are all worthless feckless cowards

Never giving another PENNY to those feckless cowards. If they couldn't keep their caucus together they are all WORTHLESS. No more work to elect them either, I am DONE

Anyway a great way to radicalize people is for them to realize that you just abandoned their chance at being able to access and afford health care because you didn’t like waiting in line at the airport.

DURBIN IS A LIAR!!!

Shutting down the government is a big deal. People have been hurt in big ways as a result of the decision. To have that suffering be for nothing—to re-open the government without actually having protected people’s health insurance and economic well-being—is unconscionable.

Yep! No more money, no more work to get Dems elected because WHAT IS THE FUCKING POINT if you're just going to fold to the Repubs anyway?

This whole "promise of a vote" thing is a complete LIE and the Dems who are going along with this KNOW that. The only way the ACA subsidies pass the 60 vote threshold in the Senate is if it's part of the deal to reopen the government. It is a completely cynical and dishonest ploy by these Dems

I am incandescent with fury

A "promise" of a vote which will fail due to the filibuster gets Dems NOTHING
What was this whole thing for, then? How can they justify this?

These rumors of Senate Dems getting ready to cave are *pissing me off*! I just called @murray.senate.gov and left a strong voicemail, don't cave on ACA. The "promise" of a vote is total bullshit (and i apologized but I did use that word in my voicemail)

Just saw new numbers as of 6 pm tonight, turnout is up to about 52%. The Urbanist has the details, tons of ballots dropped off yesterday and not counted yet (can't figure out how to tag on Bluesky)

Disappointed in the initial results of the Seattle mayoral race, let's hope Katie can catch up and overtake Harrell. Very happy that Davison and Nelson are losing!!

Ha they just showed it!

Very glad I'm not invested in the outcome of *this* 15 inning game the way I was at the Mariners/Tigers game! That was super stressful, this is just more baseball 🤣

🤣🤣🤣
