Sanders: Let’s be clear… If this vote succeeds, over 20 million Americans are going to see at least a doubling in their premiums… if resolution is passed tonight, we are on a path way to throw 15 million Americans off of medicaid and the affordable care act, 15 million.

Coming off of Election Day we had hope. We had a modicum of good will toward our representatives. We were motivated, we felt supported.
And then they fucking caved and betrayed us. They watched our joy at accomplishing something, fighting back and they sided with the enemy.
Fuck that.

Get ‘em Sidney!
Wow. Sidney Reid, the DC woman just found not guilty of assaulting an FBI agent, issues a withering and gutsy statement on Trump through her attorneys.
"I feel sorry for the prosecutors really, who must be burdened by Trump's irrational and unfounded hatred for his fellow man."
It's a must-read:

A bus of Bronx middle schoolers pulled up to the Capitol this morning for a long-planned field trip just a few hours after the government shut down.
All Capitol tours were cancelled as the guides can’t work in shutdown.
So I escorted them in myself and gave them a personal tour. They were great!

The statue of Trump and Epstein holding hands mid-frolic wasn't the first anti-Trump artwork on the National Mall in recent months. But it was the first to be removed, despite having a permit.

The majority of “family farmers” aren’t working-class strivers. They’re affluent, politically connected businessmen who know when their next bailout is coming.

Do not renew your subscriptions to #Disney or Hulu or patronize any of these companies in any way. Continue the #boycott! They need to kill the #merger that this was about. They need to issue a formal #apology for their blatant cowardly capitulation. I hope #Kimmel refuses to go back. Fuck them.
