In response to this claim that the "strategy didn't work."
The people were on our side. We were building momentum to help save our democracy. We could have won - the premium increase notices were just starting.
And giving in now will embolden him. Things will likely get worse.

Caving on a deal that doesn’t fix health care is, and always has been, a giant betrayal of the American people.
Hold the line. Save health care. I’m a NO on anything that doesn’t extend ACA subsidies.

I know it’s trite but if Biden ever said this it’d be on every front page in America and the urgency with which it would be reported would border on blind panic
Trump: "For generations Miami has been a haven for those fleeing communist tyranny in South Africa. I mean, if you take a look at what's going on in parts of South Africa. Look at South Africa, what's going on. Look at South America, what's going on. You know, we have a G20 meeting in South Africa."

if you don't show up to vote, it doesn't matter how many protests you arrange or attend, how loud you yell for a general strike, or anything else you've been doing for the last 10 months.
one vote means more than all of that put together. use your power.

So very true. We have a dramatically unaware, illinformed electorate. Why terrible people keep getting elected. Big reason why we can’t have nice things.
This is my point again that the electorate has no idea of what's actually going on. Not in some ideological way, so you can argue whether it's good or not, just in a fact way.
Recently my brother in law explained what gerrymandering was to a coworker and they didn’t believe him because if that were really happening there would be riots in the street

Good. Seriously. Please let Trump pick every SEC coach. Let him make every decision for the entire conference. The only way we'll ever break Trump fever in that part of America is to let him get involved with their college football decisions because they care deeply about that shit

What she said. (It’s better than what I said, and more accurate communication of what my brain was thinking but was unable to articulate.)
This is where psychology is so very important. Simply put, one man is a sociopath and one man is not. I am not saying this to be cute. It is a fact. Donald Trump’s behavior is consistent with sociopathy. There was nothing about Reagan that was sociopathic. Hard stop.

HA HA HA! "Trump" and "strategy" in the same sentence. Too funny.
WSJ: The U.S.-China Cold War will continue, and it’s hard to see much that this year’s trade skirmish has accomplished. At best it bought the U.S. some time. If Mr. Trump wants to deter Chinese mercantilism, he needs a new strategy and more allies. www.wsj.com/opinion/chin...

Just watched the documentary on Adam Kinzinger called “The Last Republican”. An excellent quote of his “I really don’t believe what I did was courageous. I think it’s just I’m surrounded by cowardice.”

The federal criminal justice system is being systematically dismantled and destroyed piece by piece and turned into a mob boss’s network of corrupt consiglieres and thugs, where good people simply doing their jobs are rooted out and eradicated.

How many GOP Senators or Representatives will say a word about this profane destruction of American heritage?
My guess: Zero.
(Not counting "concern" from Susan Collins, "haven't seen it" from Mike Johnson, etc.)

Scoop: Trump has started demolishing the White House's East Wing facade to build his ballroom. The president had claimed construction of the $250 million building wouldn’t ‘interfere’ with the existing White House structure. /W @ddiamond.bsky.social wapo.st/4hqBNiU

But will there be? Or will Democrats be too timid and feckless? My money is on the later
Laws are not self-executing. Is this an obvious Hatch Act violation? Of course. But without good men and women in government faithfully executing the laws, it doesn't matter.
When this is all over, assuming we still have a constitutional government, there needs to be an accounting.

By my count: Of the 15 Departments of the US Government, 13 launched new BlueSky accounts tonight (all but Justice and HUD), and all 13 have posted explicitly partisan political posts blaming Democrats and/or Chuck Schumer for the government shutdown.

Fair point. When I send invoices for freelance pieces, I'm often asked to include whether I prefer to be paid through direct deposit, a paper check, or cold hard cash in a Cava bag at a pre-arranged drop site.
STEPHANOPOULOS: Did Tom Homan give the $50,000 back?
VANCE: He did not take a bribe. It's a ridiculous smear
STEPHANOPOULOS: You didn't answer the question
VANCE: Did he accept $50,000? I'm sure that in the course of Homan's life, he's been paid more than $50k for services.
(So, no, he didn't)
