Don't Let Democratic Centrists Hijack the Majority With Their Cowardice!
Vichy Democrats decided to betray their party, their base, and Americans fighting for lower healthcare costs based on a bullshit promise by Republicans. Never forget.

Centrist Democrats are the white moderates of today. What happened today describes exactly what Martin Luther King was denouncing back then. Today it isn’t about race necessarily, but it’s about allies, who are supposed to fight for us, telling us to lower our expectations, don’t make waves.

In this era, anyone calling themselves centrist should be deported out of the country regardless of their citizenship status. They’re worse than the Right wingers.

🚨 💰 WOW — @SenatorHagerty & @MarshaBlackburn snuck a provision into the spending bill that would let them sue the government for $500,000 because Jack Smith looked into their phone records around Trump’s insurrection.

Q: I'm sure you know the Consumer Price Index showed grocery prices are up nearly 3% in September. Do you dispute that?

It seems to me that the typical Economic indicators no longer work. We have good GDP growth while the middle class is suffering. Centrist Dems don’t get it. People both sides screaming for real change. History shows us people will vote for someone worse than Trump if this persist.
Pollster: We are dealing with the worst ever view of current economic conditions since 1951. Consumer sentiment of current conditions down 30% from January when Trump took office. More than 3 in 5 Americans say that Trump's policies have worsened economic conditions in America

I don’t care if Schumer voted no. If he’s unable to wrangle the caucus, he’s not an effective leader. I’ll continue to push for the caucus to elect a new one.

That’s why I say keep calling.
I recognize this is, to some extent, cope/bargaining, but
this is the the first of several votes necessary to end the shutdown, right? so even the present unfathomable fecklessness doesn't mean it's over over, and there are multiple potential blockage points ahead to reject a no-concessions 'deal'?
