That's why we were so angry yesterday.
Because this was obvious to the rest of us.
Itβs time for new leadership

Hold the line. A promise from this administration is stepping on a rake.
Listening to these pathetic rationalizations from King, Hassan, Shaheen, whoever else they have queued up.
Disappointed that they're not having windup speech by Sen. Neville Chamberlain.
I've been reading the 3 approps bills + JES and looking for the CR text. A very-short short term CR + full year authorization for leg branch (+MilCon + VA) is not terrible ONLY IF it includes pushing back on WH encroachment on congress's power of the purse. Otherwise, it's for naught.

About to publish something on the airplane mess. But this too is ON THE REPUBS. It is not a reason to cave. Dems, it is a time to keep standing up.
In a chaotic kidnapping raid yesterday, ICE in Chicagoβs Little Village neighborhood shot a chemical munition into a familyβs moving car. The shrapnel from the pepper ball/spray hit a baby. (11/8/2025)

This is, unsurprisingly, nonsensical. Is he suggesting eliminating health insurance and giving people a few thousand dollars instead? And then when they get a cancer diagnosis they just go bankrupt?
He is so unserious. That's why we are shut down and Americans know it.
For Trump: Seafood towers at Mar-A-Lago
For Americans: Bread lines
The elimination of USAID was an unforgivable moral atrocity that should haunt Trump, Elon Musk and Marco Rubio for the rest of their days and beyond

He should be a warning sign to the GOP today but too many of them are in the cult.
This is an excellent idea!!!
