If Chuck Schumer coached the 2014 Seattle Seahawks, 2nd and Goal from the 1, 26 seconds left in the 4th, down by a score, he wouldn't have had Russ pass *or* Marshawn run the ball; he'd've knelt.

I will not support the Republican bill that’s on the Senate floor because it fails to do anything of substance to fix America’s healthcare crisis.

I did not grasp how bonkers Canadians are.
One news outlet likened the game conditions to a "snowglobe."
Crews took an hour during the game to clear snow.
"On over hour delay allowed the field crews to clear the pitch, using soccer’s answer to a Zamboni, to more playable conditions."

agreeing to make a terrible deal while your main opponent is quite literally being boo'd on live tv by an entire stadium of people is the kind of political instinct you'd normally only find in a 3 week old dead goldfish

“They promised to hold a meaningless vote on ACA subsidies, and because they took an oath to the Constitution as federal wallet inspectors, I know they will keep that promise.”
Shaheen: So let me be clear. No one in the senate chamber wants to extend the ACA tax credits more than I do.

We tried to show them after the last surrender. There's no sense in trying to convince them anymore. Primaries are the only path to a fighting opposition party now.

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

I don't know, I think publicly yelling at the Senate GOP to do the one thing they absolutely won't do for you will only make you look more impotent.

It should come as no surprise that a white supremacist government DGAF about Alaskan Natives, but the callous disregard for the well-being of the affected is still reprehensible.

Thousands of posts from a private Young Republican Telegram chat reveal a culture of casual racism/antisemitism, rape jokes and celebration of Hitler/Nazism.

Nowadays we are so inured to insults hurled by our public figures that they can accuse *ANYONE* of working for the Times and it barely registers.
