Please take this seriously

Some DC press confuse the issue and spout the leadership rhetoric for access
They don't have to
They shouldn't
It's bias
Many of us who've been at this for awhile are clear:
This was SCHUMER'S doing
It's how he works
Don't believe everything you hear
This 👇is the truth
@politico.com's @jordainc.bsky.social wrote that @kaine.senate.gov was "breaking with much of his caucus to advance the deal on the floor", which is tripe. 8 D votes were needed. The caucus was unified on the deal. The 8 Ds who voted for it were handpicked by Schumer because they're not up in '26.
Senate advances plan to end historic shutdown in bipartisan breakthrough
The framework lawmakers agreed to Sunday night would not guarantee an extension of the expiring Affordable Care Act tax credits.

Shannon Watts tonight:
"Schumer is the minority leader. He’s either not being honest about whipping the votes and using retiring Senators to take the fall so he’s not primaried or he’s so weak that he can’t keep his caucus together."

..or both
Definitely both

Pretty much this if Senate Dems cave tonight
And it's a likely "if"
Schumer absolutely has to go ...
Trump: I'm dismantling the Constitution, building a paramilitary fascist army loyal only to me, demolishing the White House, and blowing up the US economy for my billionaire cronies

Schumer: Okay, but you have to extend subsidies for corporate health care

Trump: No

Schumer: Okay
November 9, 2025 at 10:43 PM
DO NOT VOTE TO END ACA!
Tough it out or every Dem senator who votes to end shutdown without subsidies will perish in next election.
Count on it.

The Director General of the BBC and head of news have both resigned. The curse of Trump strikes again. The BBC seemed to imply that he incited an attempted insurrection on Jan 6. Surely not!

Editing Trump is now dangerous. News organisations should print full transcripts of his incoherent speeches.
