Shaheen: "We've heard from a number of our colleagues on the other side of the aisle that they're willing to come to the table, they're willing to work with us once the govt is open to get this done. We've heard the same thing from the White House. So now we'll see if they're really gonna work w/us"

I’m so glad there’s a clear, direct heir to Steph’s crown as the player who does something so ridiculous it makes my brain fuzzy and I start clapping like a seal. Just an unbelievable player
All the FGs from Victor Wembayama's 18 point 4th quarter tonight at Chicago. He is 21 years old. He is SO far ahead of schedule.

Notice: “work sucks” when directed at men means that we need better working conditions and higher pay. “Work sucks” when directed at women means that they should drop out and have babies.

Now is the time to fight, not surrender. 🗣️

Schumer must step down from his post as minority leader and allow for new leadership to emerge—someone who is willing to consistently fight for the American people.
Progressive group MoveOn calls on Schumer to step aside
"Inexplicably, some Senate Democrats, under Leader Schumer's watch, decided to surrender."

Yeah y’all should get back to fighting united instead of capitulating to a bunch of fascists who will take your demands and wipe their asses with it
The sooner we get past internal recriminations and back to fighting united, the better off we all are — the likelier our victory next November.
