@schumer.senate.gov — Everyone said, hold the line on the Govt funding for the subsidies, and you whipped 8 Dem votes from reps who weren’t up for reelection anyway—

The failure is yours - we need new leadership

Being a paramedic sucked for a lot of reasons, but at least the chairs at the station were comfortable. Chat, how do I convince my office manager to buy me a Herman Miller?

When we single out specific antisocial behavior as deserving of extra special horrific punishment, it incentivizes the state to label opposition as perpetrators of that behavior. Not to mention, pedophiles are sick. They need treatment, not a wood chipper.

If you need a quick pick-me-up, I saw a flyer today in DC that referred to the current administration as the “turd reich.”

Being a woman is introducing myself as Dr. Last Name at the start of an appointment and getting "thank you so much, first name" at the end of the appointment.

Don't cross the picket.
Starbucks’ CEO makes 6,666x what the average @sbworkersunited.org barista does. It would take less than one day of sales to finalize a fair contract.

Baristas at Starbucks corporate stores nationwide are on strike to fight this corporate greed and get the fair contract they deserve.

I've read lots of books that have taught me lots of things. But changed me? That award goes to the hobbit, which I read with my dad when I was a little girl. Reading that book with my dad was what set off my love of fantasy, sure, but also my love of reading and learning in general.
performative reading, lack of reading skills, nobody's reading anymore -- NO!

tell me about a book that changed you

for me? the *extremely* ahistorical novel, THE AGONY AND THE ECSTASY which I read at 13 and was like, "Oh, art can be *everything* to a maker, for good and bad"

This is unbearably funny
Joke of the day from Moscow: Russia tried to unveil its first humanoid AI robot, Aidol. Key word: tried. The robot collapsed during its debut, forcing organizers to cut the presentation short. Their rushed attempt to lift the prop only made things worse.

Every time a story like this pops up, it NEVER about them being visible anywhere where I am. Absolutely homophobic.

I thought the shutdown was the fight, did I get that wrong
Democrats have been fighting for months to address America's healthcare crisis

For the millions who will lose coverage
For people with cancer who won't get the care they need
For working families who can't afford to pay $25K more a year for healthcare

We will keep fighting

Absolutely correct
American politics makes a lot more sense when you realize that the GOP is afraid of pissing off the GOP base, and the Dems are afraid of pissing off the GOP base, but neither party is afraid of pissing off the Dem base.

Cull the Democratic Party. Systematically chip away all the weak, corporate centrists and corrupt, gutless elected officials who refuse to fight and instead suck at the teat of the oligarchy.

How about we shut down the government for this very popular and specific goal and then, hear me out, we hold out for like a month and a half and then, ok this part is important, after a watershed election where we ran the table, ONLY THEN, fold and don't get the one thing we said we wanted.

My family has been without half our income for 40 days. It has been.. very hard.

We are willing to feel that pain so people can have health care next year, or to undo these illegal recissions.

We are not willing to have been put through this for NOTHING.

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.

Let these exit polls be yet another reminder:

1. Can’t nobody say jack shit to -OR- about Black Women.

2. The ONLY group who has the right to say anything to -OR- about Black Men…are Black Women.

When you’re consistently #1 and #2 in the game, you’ve earned that right.
