I may be tired and a little hoarse, but as I said again and again on the Senate floor, this is a moment where we cannot afford to be silent, when we must speak up.

Disruption is all they seem to understand—so that’s exactly what they’re getting. For 14 hours, @booker.senate.gov has been on the Senate floor, speaking truth within the rules. This cannot be business as usual when our democracy’s on the line. Thank you, senator.

We will not be distracted.
We will not be discouraged.
We’ve got our eyes on the prize.

And we will build the prosperous, free nation for all that we deserve.

The time to organize is now.

Wait. What??
BREAKING: Trump's billionaire Commerce Secretary says that seniors won't care if they don't get their Social Security checks — and that anyone who does complain is a fraudster.

Now that Trump has proven to be a ruthless autocrat, too many have grown timid and silent.

That is simply not who I am. It is not what I believe, and it is not what I will do.

Instead, I will worry. I will hope. And I will fight.

Among the material devastation to everyday people, Senate Dems have now blown a hole in their ability to work with the House.

We had an agreed upon plan, House took immense risk, then Senate turned around midway and destroyed it w/ a fear-based, inexplicable abdication.

They own what happens next.

@aoc.bsky.social I’m so disgusted. It’s demoralizing. Our own party selling us out is what it feels like. Thank you for stepping up!

A YES on cloture is a YES for the bill.

Do not let anyone play games with you.

Republicans cut Democrats entirely out of their process for the CR, didn't want any of our input, and would have been blamed by a majority of the American public for a government shutdown.

There was no reason to cave to them.

Chuck Schumer has to go.

I think some in the Senate have convinced themselves that the backlash to folding will be limited to “the left” and therefore ignorable.

Those people are deeply and profoundly misreading the moment and the stakes.

Virtually every swing district House Dem walked the plank to vote NO for a reason.

@kirstengillibrand.bsky.social We are not big donors but we have donated to your campaign. If you vote yes we will never donate again.

@kirstengillibrand.bsky.social Please vote no! Lifelong NY resident Democrat. Read the room. I don’t know what part of your base could possibly want you to vote yes? Read the room. 🤞

CALLS ARE WORKING - it has bought us precious time, but we NEED to keep the pressure up.

Tomorrow is the cloture vote.

KEEP CALLING: (202) 224-3121 ☎️☎️☎️

Tell your Dem Senator to vote NO on Cloture and NO on the Republican spending bill.

Do NOT assume your Senator will be good on this. Trust me.
🚨 Everyone needs to call their Dem Senator right now. They are starting to cave.

Tell them:
1. Vote NO on Cloture
AND
2. Vote NO on the Republican spending bill.

Don’t let them pivot to reconciliation. GOP doesn’t need Dem votes on that and they know it.

TODAY is the showdown.

It should be very clear to every Senate Democrat that any vote for Cloture will also be considered a vote for the bill.

People aren’t going to be tricked with procedural games.

They know exactly what is going on.

Defend Medicaid.
Vote NO on Cloture.
NO on bill.

WaPo readers need to realize that every opinion piece they read is now the product of Bezos' rightwing censorship rules. Whether the author self censors or Post management does it after review, the result is the same.

This is what oligarch controlled media looks like.
In Ruth Marcus' new column for The New Yorker in which she unveils the Washington Post column that was rejected and led to her resignation, she points out that the paper's media critic Erik Wemple also had a piece disagreeing with Bezos' new opinion mandate nixed.
