From coast to coast, Democrats scored huge blowout wins against Trump and the GOP this week. What does this mean for next year's midterms — and has Trump's failure to tackle affordability doomed him for good? Let's break it all down. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=azIm_JPnd9M

Democrats can't defeat Trump-MAGA authoritarianism without an agenda that stands squarely on the side of working people.
We need a pro-worker, pro-democracy, anti-establishment movement that will take on oligarchy like never before.
It starts with the party rejecting Big Money.

i think this is key. taking the deal would amount to taking the blame. it would turn a clear political victory into an unambiguous defeat.
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?

Democrats were overwhelmingly united on their shutdown demands.
Americans understood that Trump and Republicans were to blame.
Voters made it known last Tuesday that they'll elect leaders who stand up to Trump.
Democrats held the cards — and folded for no reason.

Casual reminder that the myth of “pulling yourself up by your bootstraps” is a cruel hoax designed to convince poor people from all walks of life that the injustices they face are a result of their own actions, rather than an oppressive system rigged against them.

This deal to reopen the government is fucking disgraceful.
Tens of millions will lose their healthcare. Trump will be emboldened.
This is exactly what’s wrong with Democratic Party leadership and why we need more people in Congress who will actually hold the line.

The bully never pays with his own $. Why should anyone else?
To Unpaid Air Traffic controllers:
“You will have a negative mark, at least in my mind, against your record. If you want to leave service in the near future, please do not hesitate to do so, with NO payment or severance of any kind!”

And what leverage do the Dems have? Forcing fed employees to work without pay isn't leverage. This is not on the Dems. It's all on the GOP. The GOP fully intends to destroy the ACA, one way or the other. Passing a short-term spending bill will fully expose the GOP's radical, extreme cruelty.

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.
The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.
People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives.
And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.
