After millions of people took to the streets, and a resounding nationwide electoral sweep, Democrats clearly had no other option in the Senate but to utterly capitulate to the Republicans.

Chuck Schumer isn't a wartime consigliere, He isn't even a peacetime consigliere. He's a playground consigliere. Dems serious about stopping fascism drop him, NOW

As I just said on msnbc: this deal is the end of chuck Schumer. It doesn’t matter he is voting no. He’s not the leader we need at this time.

Can someone explain to me why we’re paying House Republicans to stay at home and do nothing? SMDH

If our air traffic controllers and TSA, as well as, other essential workers have to go to work without pay, then why in the hell are all these lazy, do-nothing Republicans getting paychecks?!

American murder missions off South America’s coast are in line with Trump’s preference for shooting at targets that don’t shoot back. They are also, says @theintercept.com, “…a farce since America’s adversaries do not even know they are considered at war with the U.S.”. Via @nickturse.bsky.social
