Democrats were never going to win in this shut-down. 13 Republicans were never going to break from Trump. If the Dems had not compromised Republicans would have kept the government down until the next elections, with people starving and no airplanes flying. Wake-up....the Dems did fight.

Those that will not compromise are not competent legislators.

Finally they are saying it out loud: It has nothing to do with the people. It is the GOP/MAGA wanting to get rid of Obama's signature legislation, the ACA

No vote on the shut-down without an extension on ACA subsidies

He spent Biden’s entire presidency calling him ‘Sleepy Joe’. Still does. But this guy nods off in the middle of the day in meetings almost every day. Fell asleep in court all the time too.

The GOP gave tax cuts of $2.3 trillion to the rich, but believe food & healthcare is something the country can't afford.

A political party who forces people to go w/o food & healthcare, so the wealthy don't have to pay taxes, is morally bankrupt.

@morningjoe-msnbc.bsky.social FYI Pope Leo is the pope of the worldwide Catholic Church who happens to be an American. He is not the American Pope. He is the Pontiff, His Holiness for all Catholics

Democrats just ran the table, winning the marquee races -- NJ and VA sweeps, NYC mayor, CA prop, PA Supreme Court -- and lower-profile races in red and purple states across the nation.

If the media you're reading or watching paints this as anything but a massive win, stop reading or watching them.

The administration is threatening air space shut downs. While it may be most inconvenient, it may be the safest. Air traffic is surpassing the ability of staffing to handle

I think it is time to stop watching 60 Minutes and CBS.

The CR that has not been approved is only good until 11/21. So are they working on a new one?

If I were in NJ, I would vote for Miki...in Virginia, for Abigail....in California, Yes on Prop50....in PA, vote to retain the 3 judges. Alas, I am in Illinois, we here are protecting our neighborhoods and our constitutional rights. We all do what we can. #BlueCrew

I did not watch the lie fest on 60 Minutes. I do not have time for the formerly honest and moral CBS
"Factchecking Trump on '60 Minutes'"

In today's 'First Draft' morning newsletter from Zeteo, I counted and debunked at least *17 obvious, brazen lies* that the president told CBS's Norah O'Donnell, and that she just let slide:

Mehdi debunks the president's lies, unpacks the failure of our mainstream media, and has the latest from Gaza, as well as Trump's 'Great Gatsby'-esque Halloween party.

Trump has lost touch with reality — and his "Gatsby" party proves it!

Turned on YouTube to watch TBDBITL do their pregame before the Penn State game. No matter how many times I see it, I still get chills when they do Script Ohio, Across the Field and Carmen Ohio.

I have come to the conclusion that even if a voter does not like Trump, they will vote against their interest and still vote for MAGA. I do not understand this phenomenon but it seems to be true. Why? What causes this self-hate and adulation to a false-god?

Let's buy Trump and Hegseth a set of toy soldiers and they can sit on the floor in the Oval and play war instead of attacking countries around the world.

It’s time for EVERY American to shed their politics and confront our grim reality.

Donald Trump is a mentally unhinged authoritarian.

He wants to burn down everything good and decent in our Republic for daring to hold him accountable.

He is a threat to America…and the world.

3/3
