Tonight’s Senate vote on the federal government shutdown should have been a time for strength.
Instead we saw capitulation and a betrayal of working Americans.
The American people need more from their leaders.

Trump and his administration wants kids to be hungry, they want disabled people to be hungry, they want senior citizens to be hungry, and they want the working poor to be hungry. Cruelty is the point.

Fact check! The meal this year didn’t include several of the items from last year including sweet potatoes, chicken broth, cornbread mix, pecan pie, whipped cream, etc. anyone with a brain knows the meal is going to cost way more this year. Turkey ⬆️ 70% per pound.

Feeling good this morning in California. Prop 50 overwhelmingly passed with a fair voting process not a mandate from a corrupt legislature like in Texas. Dems had a good night across the country. People are fed up and turned out to have their voices heard. Hang in there Democracy!

Release the SNAP funds! Release the government payroll funds! Release the Trump/Epstein files!
Neguse: "Does anyone here not believe that with one phone call from Speaker Johnson -- one phone call to the president or the secretary of ag -- that those funds would be released tomorrow? And that families wouldn't go starving by the weekend?"

The daily misinformation post from Rep Young Kim (CA-40). Blaming the Democrats for what is going to become a life or death problem when those that are already food insecure lose their SNAP benefits. How is it ok to withhold food assistance from the truly needy?

No Kings this Saturday. Let’s all stand together in opposition to the Felon and his gang in what ever way you can. Protest, donate, post on social media.
Living a moral life in an age of bullies requires collective action; it cannot be done alone. Each of us must organize and participate in a vast network of moral resistance. From this solidarity we will grow stronger. This is what our current moment requires.

Damn right and I am one of them! Find a protest near you and show up! Don’t be afraid. That’s what they want: fear and acceptance of their authoritarianism.
Mike Johnson is falsely generalizing the “No Kings” protestors as extremists to justify crackdowns. The truth is, they’re patriots.
These protestors don’t “hate America.” They oppose an authoritarian president who tramples on the freedoms and principles America was founded on.

Mike Johnson: "This hate America rally that they have coming up for October 18? The antifa crowd, the pro-Hamas crowd, and the Marxists, they're all gonna gather on the Mall. It is an outrageous gathering for outrageous purposes ... all this has gotta come to an end."

Please watch her final words to us all. They are beautiful and have given me a grounding sort of hope. Maybe they’ll help you too.

Yes, 100%. Please read the whole thread.
The Democratic Party needs to get younger, feistier, smarter at messaging and more in touch with the electorate, both at the state and federal levels.
Democratic voters need to get more discerning about who they choose to fight against the rising tide of oligarchic fascism.

This is the root of so many of our problems.
Five corporations control 90% of the US media market.
Airlines merged from 12 major carriers in 1980 to 4 today.
Four giants control 80% of meat processing.
A handful of companies control the pharmaceutical industry.
The evidence of corporate concentration is everywhere.

The texts do seem to be awfully convenient and the dialogue a bit unbelievable.

Trump's DOJ deleted a study about the rise of far right violence in America.
Meanwhile, Trump baselessly smears so-called "far left" critics and threatens to unleash the government on them.
Make no mistake: Trump's sole focus is suppressing dissent & consolidating more power.

So disheartening to see the GOP senators trying to discredit Dr. Monarez to score political points and putting our children and all of us at risk to support an unqualified HHS Secretary. They should ALL be calling for him to be fired immediately.
