I'm hearing the same thing. Dems are nearing a surrender. I'm shocked. Largest protest in history + best election night in years + polling showing we're kicking their ass in public opinion. And now Dems may cave.
It ain't over til it's over, so please do call if you've got a Dem senator.

Sounds like the squishes in the senate caucus are ready to pull the plug with no ACA changes. This is real. If you want to register your opinion you shld call yr senator in the next hour. They not only want to reopen w/nothing. They want cover from their colleagues who still want to hold out.

Political office holders should be determined by election, not succession.
In order to rebuild after the King is gone, we’re going to need a Democratic Party that is thoroughly intolerant of every form of corruption and self-dealing, including this political inheritance bullshit.

“Too many union leaders rely on staying in the good graces of Democratic Party leadership to maintain power because it’s easier than building enough muscle and engagement among rank-and-file members to enforce power in the old-fashioned way: through collective action.”

In social movement studies, we talk about how marches and protests expand the threshold of acceptable risk so that people take more and bigger social risks IN PUBLIC, EN MASSE. This is extremely important for the bourgeois white folks holding signs and building social rapport.
Not a shitpost: #NoKings is feel-good performative activism for comfortable mostly upper and upper middle class white folks and that’s good, actually. Millions of people in the streets protesting a fascist regime is good. It is good for the normie baseline to be massive displays of public dissent.

Or, you could just say that the Orange King is violating the Constitution…
President Trump on Wednesday signed a memorandum expanding his administration’s authority to repurpose unspent federal funds to pay members of the military during the government shutdown, escalating his challenge to the authority of Congress on spending matters.
Trump Signs Memo Expanding His Authority to Spend Federal Money
The president gave Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth wide authority to repurpose funds to pay members of the military without approval from Congress, which has the sole constitutional authority to decide federal spending.

We’re often asked whether it’s “safe” to march in the streets in protest of what is happening in our Country. Well, this is the alternative.
“ABC7 spoke to Pertissue Fisher, a woman who lives in the building. She said ICE agents took everyone in the building, including her, and asked questions later….’They was bringing the kids down, too, had them zip tied to each other.’”

For a few months, I've tracked ICE contracts for a map of companies supporting the mass deportation agenda. Huge sums for detention, weapons, and—especially alarming—an array of tech for spying on immigrants and citizens alike.

Every major Democrat has millions in their campaign account. The threat to democracy is big enough that we need to be funding mobilization and messaging right now - not just banking money for the next election.
