@schumer.senate.gov What was the point of the shutdown if you just allowed the Republicans to get what they wanted in the end?

Because now the Dems look like a bunch of weak whiners performing a play for the base. Pretending to fight in the run up to elections & putting thousands (1/2)
Since when?

It just occurred to me that I haven't any idea what a stamp costs these days. When I was a kid that was just something everyone knew. Sort of like knowing where Blockbuster was or how much it cost to use a pay phone.

Welp, it's 8 o'clock. Time to turn down the hearing aid and get to bed.

So this is what "America first" looks like under Trump's reign. What a headline.

🌅🌤️Why does morning have to arrive so early everyday? I mean, the audacity!!!

Once in a while morning just needs to chill the fuck out and maybe wait until afternoon before popping up.

This. Please this.
@hickenlooper.senate.gov @bennet.senate.gov please introduce a bill that requires that members of Congress buy their healthcare on ACA portals in each state. This would really enlighten folks about what we have to contend with.

When shit gets weird ( like every day) I'm just gonna say "Choo choo motherfucker" it's the new hakuna matata.
Yeah that’s the polite way of saying it.

I do like choo choo muthafukka theory though…

I really cannot imagine going to all the trouble of getting elected to the Senate only to get there and decide not to stand up for healthcare, or democracy, or people’s ability to afford their lives. If those things aren’t worth fighting for, then truly what is?
November 10, 2025 at 3:09 AM
@hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social @schumer.senate.gov Why in the world should anyone believe the Dems will take AND KEEP a stand against this regime? At every opportunity you've rolled over. Why should people put their faith in the Democratic party? Give us a reason.

I'll wait.

DO NOT CAVE AGAIN!
A "vote" on healthcare is NOT a deal/negotiation! Have you not learned your lesson yet??!! Listen to the people!

The centrists in the Senate Democratic caucus saw that the country was rallying to the party in the 2025 elections and resolved that they would do anything they could to kill that momentum.

Mamdani is going to enact Shaboozey law. I, for one, think that's Good News.
Mamdani is going to implement SSHaria law. Communications will be end to end encrypted.
Mamdani is going to implement Shakira law. Hips will no longer be able to lie.

Abortion bans kill women. Period.
Sen. Ron Wyden is calling out the GOP for pushing to slip a nationwide backdoor abortion ban into the government funding bill. This is dangerous for women’s health care. We’ve already seen the consequences in states like TX, but I guess the GOP is intent on The Handmaid’s Tale.

🤷‍♀️So what will happen when a county clerk denies a license to a mixed race couple, arguing their religion is against miscegenation? Religious freedom for 1 should not result in legal oppression for others. This is the point of separation of church & state. This is what "Don't tread on me" means. 🤦‍♀️
The 6 far-right extremist terrorists on the Supreme Court have now begun hearing arguments from criminal career bigot Kim Davis about ending same-sex marriage. She’s the scumbag known for refusing to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples.

It’s always been about hate.

I don't think he's a failure. He's been a very successful conman.
It is essential to anticipate that he is removed before the harm he is inflicting on the country becomes irreversible.

@hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social Maybe call a no confidence vote for Mike Johnson. Seems like he doesn't want to do his job, and he is actively preventing others from doing theirs.
House Republicans have been on a taxpayer-funded vacation since September 19.

...and Speaker Johnson is — once again — not calling votes next week.

This is a complete abdication of leadership.
House will be out of session next week

It's called the American Dream instead of the American Goal because dreams exist outside of reality; and the reality of today is that most people can't afford to live securely and with some degree of comfort.

That modest idea seems like a pipe dream.
