A reminder - last March, republicans promised to restore $1.1B in funding to DC in exchange for funding the government, and Mike Johnson never took it up in the House.

Trump‘s brilliant plan of 50 year mortgages means that after your first 20 years making huge interest payments to a bank you will have paid down almost none of the principal and they will still own the house you are living in with 30 years to go. A scam from a career con man.

This is what premiums spike to for a man with cancer who is a taxi driver in AZ (met his son). This is Ambetter, operated by private health insurer Centene. It's why we need to extend the ACA credits & fight for Medicare for All.

call whoever yours is, but especially these, and if you get a full voicemail try a different number
simple message: “why should anyone trust a Senator who promises us the pain we, your constituents, suffer during a shutdown is for a purpose, then caves and makes it completely meaningless”

John Fetterman, Angus King, Maggie Hassan, Dick Durbin, Jon Ossoff, Jeanne Shaheen, Kirsten Gillibrand, Catherine Cortez Masto, Mark Warner, Cory Booker, and of course Chuck Schumer. Maybe others not top of mind. Not all responsible will publicly vote for the cave - that's not how this works.

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.

Still call Schumer's office to tell him not to cave. We need all democrats to stay strong. The people of the United States are strong, and we will help each other through this.
So far, Senate Democrats did not cave...
US Senate floor website says "Senate stands in recess" until 8 pm...
I heard that progressive Senate Democrats talked other Senators down from caving into Trump...

Time after time, Homeland Security’s accounts of its violent incidents in Chicago turn out to be lies. Local journalists and a federal judge have done a good job of calling them out. I wish the national political media had the same level of skepticism toward “official” accounts by proven liars.
Judge blasts Trump’s Chicago border ‘Blitz,’ extends curbs on use of force that ‘shocks the conscience’
Judge Sara Ellis said Trump's Justice Department lacks credibility, partly because of a lie told by U.S. Border Patrol commander Gregory Bovino.

At the same time that corporate propaganda has taught us to hate being a recipient of social programs, it turns out corporations love NOTHING MORE than being a recipient of federal bailouts & subsidies.
They call it socialism when it benefits the People & Capitalism when it benefits themselves.🧵

Medicare for All is baseline government health insurance — and we already pay for it. But right now, that money pads CEO bonuses instead of covering hearing, vision, and dental.
