We need to build some real social stigma around being afraid of cities. You don't have to like them or live there, but a politics built this strongly around watching TV and going "ewww" is embarrassing, and people should be embarrassed by it. It's like "fear of werewolves" being your top issue.

Is there a good list of other senators who have so far posed questions to Corey Booker?

Watched a thing about coffee makers and how cleverly they are designed with heating elements and bubble valves, truly a marvel of simplicity and effectiveness, but the people who designed the coffee maker never thought they should be in charge of America like Silicon Valley did, they just did coffee

This is blood-boiling. Charles Rogers was awarded the Medal of Honor in Vietnam after being wounded three times leading the defense of a position.

Google his name and the entry below comes up. When you click, you'll see the page has been deleted and the URL changed to include "DEI medal."

i honestly have never seen a political leader so thoroughly destroy their credibility so quickly and, on the other side, it is abundantly clear that if anyone can claim a genuine leadership of large parts of the democratic party, it is AOC.
Folks is it good when your own party's leadership in the House is dropping "listen to the women" and MLK quotes on you while swing state members of your caucus are talking about new leadership

House Democrats held the line in a close vote on the GOP blank check bill. We’re ready to vote again if the Senate passes something better!

@schumer.senate.gov, you may ultimately fall short but people expect us to TRY, at least. What is the filibuster for, if not this?
I’m simply going to post these two facts regarding Sen Schumer’s post:

1. Trump sent JD Vance to lobby Republicans to vote for the partisan GOP CR bill that makes devastating cuts across the board and legitimizes DOGE.

2. Trump publicly castigated GOP Rep Massie for voting NO.

The institutional Democratic Party is guided by an almost pathological level of conflict avoidance in almost every direction. “What can we do to make the least number of people mad?” is just a bankrupt way to operate.

I think some in the Senate have convinced themselves that the backlash to folding will be limited to “the left” and therefore ignorable.

Those people are deeply and profoundly misreading the moment and the stakes.

Virtually every swing district House Dem walked the plank to vote NO for a reason.

This message is for @fetterman.senate.gov : If you have any dignity left at all or even sense of service to the constituency that elected you, you will vote NO on cloture. This is the part where you have to stand up and be brave and walk the walk. Why are the Senate Dems literally rolling over??!!

Fetterman: surprised you can type that with both hands busy jerking off Republicans you bitch.
The weeks of performative “resistance” from those in my party were limited to undignified antics.

Voting to shut the government down will punish millions or risk a recession.

I disagree with many points in the CR, but I will never vote to shut our government down.

FETTERMAN is a fascist collaborator!

He voted to cede some of the power of Congress amongst other travesties.

Hands up if you agree this should be his last term!

Are you kidding me?!?!!?? Does he work for ANY of us here in PA? Stop accepting responsibility for an impending government shutdown. This is completely on the Republicans. John, we elected you because you were tough, so even if you're scared it's time to be brave. I am so disappointed in you.

I think I'm just done with paying what's left of my student loans at this point with the DOE purge. They can catch up to me when they get done with transferring all of them over to the Department of the Treasury by which time I'll likely have died of old age.
