If anyone else in any line of work did their job as badly as the Dems that agreed to this deal (whether you believe it was coordinated or not), they would basically be fired immediately.
We need more primary challengers like Mamdani so badly at this point. The old political legacies have to end.

Buried inside the deal to reopen government is a provision that would give Senators private right of action to sue for millions in damages over their phone records being analyzed by Jack Smith's team.

"Wow, we had such an amazing win on Tuesday, and we seem to really have the support of people across the country to keep fighting!" *lights up a molotov and throws it into their own rebel base* "Hey, Liar McRich just promised that if I do this now, we'll possibly get a concession in a month or two."

Caving now will teach Trump and Republicans that they can win any fight simply by threatening to cause terrible harm to regular people. no possible way that could have future adverse consequences

Sounds like the squishes in the senate caucus are ready to pull the plug with no ACA changes. This is real. If you want to register your opinion you shld call yr senator in the next hour. They not only want to reopen w/nothing. They want cover from their colleagues who still want to hold out.

Not to be the fun police but I do hope people know that Arc Raiders does use generative AI for voice acting, and by supporting the game you're letting higher-ups know that this is an okay practice.
They try to downplay this on the Steam store page by describing the AI usage as vaguely as possible.

Hey, friendly reminder that Scott Cawthon's donations to the GOP literally contributed to SNAP suspension and you shouldn't buy or stream Five Nights at Freddy's anything.

So, heading into the holidays, the Trump administration is making it its goal to:
-Destroy people's ability to get any kind of food
-Screw up air travel (and other forms of travel in a domino effect)
-Keep inflation/tariffs that will impact the biggest shopping season for millions of Americans.

Cancel Paramount+ if you haven't already and boycott anything owned by David Ellison's dogshit companies.

Under new head of Paramount David Ellison, the studio has drawn up a list of actors who opposed the Gaza genocide and will not allow them to appear in its films and TV shows.
Does this sound familiar?
Also, "Ellison is reportedly aiming to take over Warner Bros. next."

basically every 2024 truism is dead. Trump did not build a lasting multiracial coalition or turn young men into committed Republicans. You don’t need to cave on trans rights to win. The pundits have nothing left to tell you.

Important to remember after yesterday: the rich and powerful are about to do EVERYTHING THEY CAN to sabotage every Dem that just flipped a seat. And the rich and powerful can manage a lot of evil.
So when things are not absolutely perfect in a couple years, keep that in mind, and keep voting.

Don't forget that Zohran Mamdani spent his entire campaign standing proudly beside the trans community. He went to trans rights rallies just to show support. He proudly waved trans rights flags without hesitation. He refused to back down in support of trans rights. That makes me happy.
