Enjoying my exodus to bluer skies. Especially enjoying talking about football, baseball, books, art, gardening and cooking with a mindful dose of politics, philosophy and religion (ie everything you shouldn’t talk to family about, especially mine lol)

What a failure of imagination and leadership.

Congress just dropped a so-called “minibus” deal to end the 40-day shutdown but it’s a surrender disguised as progress.
It funds veterans and agriculture but abandons the 20 million Americans who rely on ACA subsidies for health care.
A Band-Aid won’t fix a bleeding nation.

Senate Republicans are daring Democrats to cave. Don’t. Rosen, Baldwin, Kelly, Ossoff, Peters, Durbin, Hassan, Shaheen, King, Fetterman—hold the line. Don’t sell out working families for a headline. Demand a full reopening and real relief. Don’t cave
Trump: “Grocery prices are way down.”
Fact check:
Yeah, despite the rumblings from other reporters this still feels like another bit of Axios wishcasting.
What's for certain is that any Democrat who votes to cave now and betray the base in exchange for nothing at all will live to regret it.
I'm hearing the same thing. Dems are nearing a surrender. I'm shocked. Largest protest in history + best election night in years + polling showing we're kicking their ass in public opinion. And now Dems may cave.
It ain't over til it's over, so please do call if you've got a Dem senator.
Sounds like the squishes in the senate caucus are ready to pull the plug with no ACA changes. This is real. If you want to register your opinion you shld call yr senator in the next hour. They not only want to reopen w/nothing. They want cover from their colleagues who still want to hold out.

Every single word of this Mamdani speech is fucking fire.
Politicians should probably get on Bluesky to get better in touch with the American electorate.

Spanberger wins men 18-29 by 14%, Sherrill by 10%, and Mamdani by a stunning 40%.
The factional grifters will hate this, but the Mamdani-Spanberger-Sherrill axis actually suggests the outlines of a broad, emerging Dem coalition organized around both anti-Trump *and* affordability politics, not a party bitterly divided against itself.

he won on the back of a pro-migrant, pro-trans, pro-working class campaign. and also: Dem pundits are full of shit
Congratulations to all the Democratic candidates who won tonight. It’s a reminder that when we come together around strong, forward-looking leaders who care about the issues that matter, we can win. We’ve still got plenty of work to do, but the future looks a little bit brighter.

People fucking hate this guy. They fucking hate ICE. They fucking hate how much power he has. He is at 63% overall disapproval to 37% approval. That's lower than their poll after January 6th. And this poll was done before he started intentionally starving people. I wish our media would reflect this.

Legit, for the past couple of years Teen Vogue has been one of the very few remaining major titles to publish political commentary that clearly addressed the American cultural descent into madness. Invaluable for young readers, filing a gulf. No wonder it’s being squashed
