I believe we are ALL better off when EVERYONE has housing, healthcare, food, and education.
If you're fond of punching down - especially when it comes to blaming voters/non-voters - you probably shouldn't follow me. Thanks!
Sorry, can't afford to donate.

Democratic elected officials & pundits LOVE to tell voters to put "X, Y, Z" behind them and "move on." This means that they never, ever, ever address X, Y, Z. This is a significant reason the country is where it is. For ex, Obama came in saying "we're not looking back" and man was that wrong.

They're not spinning it this way because the next thing that comes to mind is "if you caved to avoid suffering, how much suffering are you inflicting by caving?" And the truth is both in scale, and endurance the harm of caving vastly outweighs the harm of the shutdown.

Abolish sovereign immunity. Senators are literally doing that for themselves, but not for you. Abolish sovereign immunity for EVERYONE. If Senators are able to sue the government, SO SHOULD YOU.
This allows Trump (via DOJ) to use taxpayer money to bribe eight GOP Senators. It's that simple, there's no other way to describe it.
And where's the compensation for people injured by the Trump admin's unlawful conduct through DHS & DOGE?
Take a bow, @schumer.senate.gov, you did this.

Nothing matters until political elites risk having their vacations put on hold
My read of it (with very incomplete information) is scoring more political points would have required destroying Thanksgiving travel and at least 10 Dem Senators don’t have the stomach for that.
