The coordinated nature of this—none are facing voters in 2026—means that either Schumer approved it or failed in his job as Senate Majority Leader to stop it.

Dems voting "no" get zero credit until they demand a change in leadership. Schumer out as Leader, Durbin out as Whip.
so currently defectors are:

Kaine (2030)
Shaheen (Retiring)
Hasan (2028)
Fetterman (2028)
Durbin (Retiring)
CCM (2028)
Rosen (2030)
King (2030)

Nuremburg trials is the moderate position
He said that the agents would throw food at them to eat. The agents threatened to withhold food for a week and to beat him up if he didn't sign deportation papers. He said he saw others refuse and get beaten/receive no food. He signed because he was afraid.

Damn republicans, seriously

Got asked for any difference between Evans and Davison. Don’t think I have a good answer because I’m having a stroke.

I could go on, but at some point we have to acknowledge that the only thing impeding Harrell from delivering results is Harrell himself. Seattle is ready for change, and the only thing preventing us from achieving it are his loyalty to big business, poor management, and lack of creativity.

The problem with miraculously saving SNAP is the people who will roll their eyes and say “see!!! I told you it wasn’t a real thing! Democrats just always trying to pretend there’s an emergency”

I think it’s pretty fucking depressing to see people spending energy telling everyone they’d rather die than vote impurely, especially knowing they won’t actively do any dying either.
i think the "blue no matter who" crowd aren't so much interested in politics or rights so much as they see the cult mentality of trump fans and just wish they had a hitler rally for their team so they could get that excited too

This is a solution to the problem nobody else saw: there’s too much economy still happening.

This should be etched on a piece of wood and used to beat people over the head when they say “a business would never be so inefficient!”
I legitimately didn't know they were competing with Steam and it's crazy to me that they burnt so much money on what sounds like something with very little (or wildly misguided) market research.

Over on Insta - @joemallahan.bsky.social has a video that should disqualify Harrell from ever being in office again.

We don't need someone who stands with abusers, time after time, and makes jokes to deflect responsibility for it.

Vote for Katie Wilson
