There was a time when 90% of Americans would have understood how deranged in every conceivable way a post like this is

I mean if you showed this to any American in 2001 they wouldn't even understand what they were looking at or what sort of deranged creature could possibly speak like this in public

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.

A new study shows rents for low-wage Atlanta tenants are rising *9 times* faster than for wealthy renters.

The affordability crisis is everywhere: housing, healthcare, food, electricity, survival itself.

And the party that won big on "affordability" last week just turned around and surrendered it.
Study: Rents for low-wage Atlantans rose 9 times faster than for high earners
Rents for suburban workforce housing in the metro Atlanta region increased by almost 20%, while rents for luxury units increased by 2%, a study said.

We have really dumb people serving in the US Senate.

💯. It wasn't about just the ACA subsides—it was about those and … everything else.

Two-thirds of California's power comes from clean energy.

For 9 in 10 days so far this year, we were 100% powered for some part of the day by clean energy.

The Golden State has become the world's fourth-largest economy because of our climate leadership, not in spite of it.

Please don’t think this beltway game of having retiring Dem senators vote yes while everyone else votes no is going to shield leadership from the end result. We see what is happening and can’t be fooled by those games.

If you think the people throwing Great Gatsby-esque parties for themselves, while millions were denied their food assistance, are all of a sudden going to grow a conscience and save affordable healthcare, you clearly have not been paying attention.

Every time you capitulate to a bully, they'll come back at you twice as brutally.

If you didn't learn this life lesson in third grade, GTFO of the US Senate.

The Trump administration is just fine with putting the health of Americans at risk. Prove me wrong.

8 Senate Democrats threw us under the bus. Instead of stepping up in a moment of great crisis, they decided to be the doormats the party is known for.

Reopening the gov't isn't going to save the ACA & nothing that Republicans promise can be believed.

Trump did this!
⬇️⬇️⬇️
The university of Michigan released its consumer confidence index.

US consumer confidence is at the lowest level since 1951.

Trump tanked the economy in his first term!

Is he’s doing it to us again?

The billionaire owner of the Washington Commanders might name his new stadium after a man who just got mercilessly booed by his entire fan base because they despise him. Seems like a brilliant branding strategy.

This bill is not final. If you live one of the 8 states where Democratic senators voted to cave, please call and let them know how you feel.
NOTE:

(1/3) This handshake deal is for a Continuing Resolution (CR) that would extend government funding only through 1/30/26, with a "minibus" of three full-year appropriations bills that would fund specific programs/agencies, including SNAP benefits, through 9/30/26.
