This all assumes Johnson is willing to call the House back into session presumably releasing the Epstein files and also possibly ending his career as Speaker, which will be interesting to see

Really question: how long do they have to vote and what if one or more just doesn't
So the Senate vote to advance the funding deal is currently 56-40. All the Democrats have voted. FOUR Republicans have not yet voted: John Cornyn, Rick Scott, Ron Johnson and Mike Lee. All of them need to vote YES to get this to 60, otherwise it fails.

Like all other moments of mass conservative upset this is just a bunch of grown adults throwing a temper tantrum because the mess they were making was threatening their neighbor's lives so the government had to step in

Sometimes I think about that random high schooler who walked into a classroom I was subbing, calmly announced he had shit his pants, and left. He was not in the class, and the smell that lingered after him proved he was not lying. I hope he's doing okay

I'm sick and I slept while watching Frasier and I dreamt Frasier was my doctor and he was much more caring and competent than he is in the show

The good news is it's only 422 days until we maybe have a branch of government sworn in with an opposition majority and it's unclear if the leadership of that majority will be up to the task. Huzzah

I don't know how effective my anonymity is but there's one local election that if I ever talk about on here would kind of blow my cover because so far as I know no one else involved on the Democratic side has Bluesky yet

ah, perhaps instead of pumping millions into endless factional infighting Dem donors could invest in making local Dem organizations genuine civic spaces that can reach people during and between elections

i want to repeat this: mamdani and spanberger have run similar campaigns tailored to their respective electorates and it is maddening to watch political journalists attempt to create some broad contrast where none exist
the other thing about this is that there is no reason to pit these candidates against each other? each are good fits for their respective electorates and each shows the value of vigorous campaigns focused on the stated material problems of voters.
