Hey @apnews.com, why did you take down the video of the military speech?

American politics makes a lot more sense when you realize that the GOP is afraid of pissing off the GOP base, and the Dems are afraid of pissing off the GOP base, but neither party is afraid of pissing off the Dem base.

She doesn't mention cloture specifically. But I think it's clear what Pelosi is saying here. And I think her saying it is a pretty big deal.

A YES on cloture is a YES for the bill.

Do not let anyone play games with you.

The honest, actual, serious plan of the Democratic leader in the Senate—who has actual leverage he can use right now, with blame falling on Republicans for it—is to wait for Republicans to save us, and therefore he has chosen to help Republicans out of a problem of their own making.
Schumer tells me Republicans might try to jam Democrats again in September, but thinks Trump will be less popular then and Republican appropriators might be more willing to stand up to him. He said they refused to do so now.

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.

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.

I've been out so didn't know we had this piece coming. But our new write-up explains how this switcheroo will work. Dems give up 60 vote threshold in exchange for being allowed to offer amendments that will fail. That's what they're doing. talkingpointsmemo.com/news/after-h...

We just received word that the DOJ has begun removing data detailing criminal charges and convictions related to Trump loyalists. This started with records from the January 6th insurrection, but additional records are now being erased. We will keep you updated once we have more info.

This is Martin Mycielski's Authoritarian Checklist from 2017. Their #coup has succeeded in all three branches. Note the only line unchecked: We still have freedom of assembly. We must protest. Follow Germans' example: Resist. Loudly. Now.

KNOW YOUR RIGHTS.

With mass deportations starting today across the country, it is vitally important - for both citizens and non-citizens - to know your rights.

You have the right to remain silent. Assert it. You have the right to a lawyer. Ask for one.

This all feels like that scene in Revenge of the Sith where the Palpatine gets emergency powers, and everyone cheers meanwhile Padmé is standing there all dumbfounded like how can anyone NOT see what the fuck is going on.
