Rhetorical pleas against infighting are always begging the question about who's actually on the same side as you.
The sooner we get past internal recriminations and back to fighting united, the better off we all are — the likelier our victory next November.

Climate change is an existential threat, crime has been dropping for years, and a lot of Democratic politicians are openly homophobic and transphobic.
The voters are wrong. The voters are often wrong. We should say these narratives are wrong.

Duh. Those of us on the ground last year actually speaking with middle class/working class voters and who heard from these voters every single day the same - “Trump is an asshole, but Democrats are out of touch” - could’ve saved my new political party a lot of time & money producing this “report.”👇

Furious Liberals Call for Schumer to Step Aside, Senate Dems Mostly Quiet

Maybe important to note it was the disruption in air travel that Democrats couldn't stand and not, you know, 40+ million people not knowing where their next meal was coming from.

You can't work with the other side to give them everything they want and then expect us to trust that it will be different with you.

Your tax dollars showing towards pepper spraying babies
Arianna Sofia Veraza and her parents were driving to Sam's Club for milk, eggs and diapers yesterday when they heard helicopters and horns blaring yesterday. They had turned around to leave when a federal agent pepper-sprayed them through a car window.

Those few that can be trusted are those the Democratic Party has been openly at war with; precisely because they try to represent the people and not the billionaire class.

They figured they could get past election day. That's it. They figured we will forget by next time.
If the Dems blink after all of this, for a deal that all but ensures no ACA subsidies in 2026 anyway, then what was the purpose of letting the shutdown go for 40 days in the first place?

Assume all the yes and no votes from Dem senators are strategic and not sincere votes. The party caucus made a decision. No way to know how many were in favor. Then the caucus decided who would vote yes and no based on what would protect each of them politically the most. That’s how this works.
