Senate Democrats walked away empty-handed, and don’t let anyone tell you different.
Tim Kaine and the others bought the lie that Republicans would negotiate on extending the ACA subsidies. They won’t.
Dems got played, Schumer failed to keep his caucus together, and the American people got nothing.

In the struggle against authoritarianism, the pro-democracy opposition needs ruthlessly strategic leadership.
Chuck Schumer ain’t it. It’s time for him to resign. We don’t have time for more Schumer Surrenders.

Hungary’s surging opposition is demanding Prime Minister Viktor Orbán explain a “bailout package” he hinted at securing from US President Donald Trump.
Orbán counts on Trump going full Argentina to save him from election doom
The specter of Washington throwing a financial lifeline to save its ally in Budapest echoes another controversial White House gambit.

Ah, Orban saw what Argentina got and wants some too because he's losing ground in the polls.

President Donald Trump is apparently stumped by math and how refund checks work after announcing he wants to give Americans $2,000 checks paid for by his tariffs — then expressing bewilderment about where the money would come from.

Language buried in this shutdown “deal” allows 8 GOP Senators who tried to throw a coup, sue to get millions in taxpayer money—because Jack Smith got their phone records. THEY TRIED TO THROW A COUP. There is no excuse for any Dem supporting this. This is absolutely wrong. Full stop—Period.

I have to hand it to them, it's an incredible bit to publicly lose a game of chicken, admit that's what happened, and then spend the next day lecturing everyone about courage and tenacity

My wife and I pay for life insurance even though we have never died. I pay for fire insurance even though my house has never burned down. That's not because we want to throw money at insurance companies. It's because THAT'S HOW INSURANCE WORKS.

This object capitulation by Schumer and Jefferies was appalling – – and so unnecessary and humiliating because they were winning the battle for public opinion and have the cards to win and save healthcare. I agree: primary any Dem who supports the failed leadership. Do you?

Democratic leaders have failed us again. It's time to get new leaders.
After yet another capitulation by Chuck Schumer and Senate Democrats, it's clear we need new leadership capable of mounting a serious opposition to Trump's authoritarian regime. We're launching our la...

Still processing the inanity of this cave, like, "We're going to make Republicans go on record that they want to destroy the ACA." You mean the motherfuckers who radicalized in opposition to it & voted to repeal it, like, 22 times? You're finally getting them on record? Really impressed over here

We’re in Brazil — one of the world’s great democracies, one of our biggest trading partners — and not a single person from the Trump Administration showed up.
That’s shameful.

I agree with this. We also need Dems who have charisma and can speak in front of the camera. The wobbly, hesitating, speeches from the old guard (despite their good policy positions) do not work in an age of TV / social media politics.

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.

I don't care how Schumer himself votes. The bottom line is that as Senate Majority Leader, Lyndon Johnson would have last night had on his desk eight sealed mason jars with the severed hands of every senator who even thought about raising them to vote yes. As a majority leader should.
