What a monumental Idiot we have for a President.

He's losing it more and more as each day goes by and nobody that counts is saying anything about it.

Earners of distrust. Deserving of your scorn.

Big Republican Lie in 2024: "The policies of the Trump administration will NOT be based on Project 2025."

Big Republican Lie in 2025: "If you join us to end your only leverage over us, the shutdown, we *promise* [wink, wink] to bring ACA subsidies up for a vote."

Mike Johnson Shows the Dems’ Shutdown Deal Is Already Backfiring The House speaker has repeatedly indicated this would be the case, and yet eight senators still caved.

The silver lining to the surrender by 8 Dems is that the House GOP must return to vote on it. Johnson must swear in Grijalva, and the discharge petition on the Epstein files must force a full floor vote. Stay tuned.

People just paid $30 for a glass bear from Starbucks…

"Outrage and betrayal"
AOC on House Dem.

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)_/¯

In the most predictable development ever, Mike Johnson is not committing to hold a House vote on ACA subsidies

I'd like for someone in the dem caucus to tell us which senators were real no votes and which ones voted no because they were allowed to.

BERNIE: “This senate is about to make a horrific situation even worse… health insurance premiums will double/triple/quadruple… some will pay 50% of their income… 15 million will lose insurance… 50,000 will die unnecessarily…”

This is pure cruelty and an assault on a peaceful family with a toddler. ICE apparently fired a pepper-spray bullet into a car, that poor one-year old girl is crying her eyes out. This is an unacceptable behavior from agents who should be sued for that.

Voters Ousted This Pennsylvania Sheriff After He Signed Up to Collaborate With ICE - Bolts A populous, swing county replaced its GOP sheriff on Tuesday after months of controversy over his joining ICE’s 287(g) program. The Democratic winner promises he’ll end the contract.

NEW: Dems easily flipped the sheriff's office in Pennsylvania's Bucks County, a big swing county in the Philly suburbs.

So? The incumbent GOP sheriff had contracted with ICE. His Dem challenger promised to end the contract.

Now he wants other swing-state Dems to look at his victory as a lesson:

Please don’t think this beltway game of having retiring Dem senators vote yes while everyone else votes no is going to shield leadership from the end result. We see what is happening and can’t be fooled by those games.

There’s still time to call senators. Let me explain. Sorry not sorry about the cat. He’s also really upset about this deal.

In response to this claim that the "strategy didn't work."

The people were on our side. We were building momentum to help save our democracy. We could have won - the premium increase notices were just starting.

And giving in now will embolden him. Things will likely get worse.

It should be that simple.

Sanders: Let’s be clear… If this vote succeeds, over 20 million Americans are going to see at least a doubling in their premiums… if resolution is passed tonight, we are on a path way to throw 15 million Americans off of medicaid and the affordable care act, 15 million.

BREAKING: The Supreme Court denied an attempt to challenge Obergefell v. Hodges, the case affirming marriage equality nationwide.

Our freedom to marry remains the law of the land.

cause there are no Dem senators "mad as hell"

until i see statements from Dem senators calling for Schumer to step down, i will believe that this was coordinated effort. the 8 traitors were chosen to be the fully guys. the rest of the caucus went along with it.

The 8 Senate Dems who caved on affordable healthcare:

Fetterman-PA (reelection in 28)
Cortez Masto-NV (reelection in 28)
Hassan-NH (reelection in 28)
Rosen-NV (reelection in 30)
Kaine-VA (reelection in 30)
King-ME (reelection in 30)
Durbin-IL (retiring)
Shaheen-NH (retiring)

Bernie Sanders: "What this Senate is about to do is make a horrific situation even worse. So let's be clear what this vote is about. If this vote succeeds, over 20 million Americans are gonna see at least a doubling in their premiums in the ACA."

Time to swear in Adelita Grijalva, let her cast the final vote to release the Epstein files!

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

We need new leaders in the Senate.

Sanders: That is a totally meaningless gesture. You can get 100 votes here and it won't mean anything because the House is not going to take it up.
