This is really good to see: Miki Sherrill just put out a statement sharply criticizing the Senate Dems' pending cave in the government shutdown, ripping it as "malpractice" and a betrayal of the people who are "counting on us to fight for them." Sherrill knows what drove her victory. Wake up, Dems.

Sanders: That is a totally meaningless gesture. You can get 100 votes here and it won't mean anything because the House is not going to take it up.

@schumer.senate.gov @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social @democrats.org don’t fumble this while you’re on the goal line. Last night proves you have the people on your side so long as you keep fighting.
Republicans will fold—they’re losing and they know it. People blame them for this mess. Keep holding out.

This dark time should wake us up to the bankruptcy of the corporate Democratic Party. It should mark the birth of the people’s Democratic Party. Zohran Mamdani and others like him are its future. Some thoughts...

WOW: The White House says the president's MAIN PRIORITY is his BALLROOM. SNAP is ending. Subsidies for health care are gong to double and in some instances quadruple plan premiums. The government is shut down. The cost of living is through the roof. And his priority is his ballroom.

Trump is not leaving office.
They are going to go for martial law if it looks likely that the GOP will lose the House.
You just have to listen to them.

It flies under the radar because it is overwhelmed by the sheer repulsiveness of the physical destruction of the east wing, but there is no way that a president should be allowed to use private money to change public property. It circumvents the power of the purse.

UPDATE: Trump is set to demolish the entire East Wing of the White House, after of course promising the White House wouldn't be touched.
Here's the thing—he could demolish the ENTIRE White House, and I absolutely could see him doing so—and MAGA Republicans will cheer him on because It Is A Cult.

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 80th day out of the last 92.
The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.
It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.
