The DC shooting story is really getting to me because we literally trained this man as a child soldier for a death squad in a forever war and Stephen Miller et al want to blame it on other cultures? It's our culture, American culture, that killed that woman.

Ugh. @schumer.senate.gov is an embarrassment. He needs to whip his dems up and not let this travesty continue. And then resign.

Millions of Democratic voters on Tuesday: Fight these guys. Fight them.

Senate Democrats: We heard you loud and clear and we will give in

Any "leader" who allows this to happen isn't a leader at all. @schumer.senate.gov needs to go. This just shows that establishment Democrats are just Republicans in the end. Same millionaire cronies, same out-of-touch attitude. Same outcomes, over and over. #schumerneedstoresign

#Durbin said this a few days ago. And then insults us now by saying we don't know how the Senate works. I've voted for him in every #Senate election in Illinois. And now he is nothing but a #Fetterman. What a massive disappointment. Good riddance @durbin.senate.gov
Even President Trump agrees: the Republican shutdown is costing them votes.

Americans facing rising costs are fed up with House Republicans who haven’t shown up to work in almost seven weeks and a President who is too busy building his ballroom to notice.

Imagine possessing both the arrogance and incompetence of Dick Durbin.

We understand how the Senate works, dude. That's the fucking problem.
Durbin said critics of his vote “need to understand how the Senate works”

Shutting down the government is a big deal. People have been hurt in big ways as a result of the decision. To have that suffering be for nothing—to re-open the government without actually having protected people’s health insurance and economic well-being—is unconscionable.

If Dems cave, it will be so on brand. Schumer has to go.
Dems backed Trump into a corner where he’s advocating for starving Americans and hemorrhaging support. If they vote to let him off the hook in exchange for nothing it’s a cataclysmic failure. I know people are in pain but insulating Republicans from political consequences is not the answer.

The festival run for Say My Name is just about done. A special thanks to all who were involved in the making of this. A special shoutout to all of the fests who accepted Say My Name, in spite of the difficulties in programming a 30-minute #horror #shortfilm. Stay tuned for what happens next!
