jesteinf in all the places. Food, politics, sports, nonsense. Coming to you from San Francisco, the greatest dystopian hellscape there is. Mysterious and important.
So clearly the agreement was:
-Pelosi retires
-Scott Wiener runs for her seat
-Christine Pelosi runs for the seat Wiener would be vacating (there were rumblings that she would run for Nancy's seat but looks like the local machine worked out an alternative)
Christine Pelosi, daughter of Nancy Pelosi, has announced she’s running for the California State Senate.

Hassan: With the government reopening shortly, Republicans now finally have to come to the table. Or make no mistake, Americans will remember who stood in the way.

Senator Schumer is no longer effective and should be replaced. If you can’t lead the fight to stop healthcare premiums from skyrocketing for Americans, what will you fight for?

They’re just insulting our intelligence with this nonsense
Shaheen: So let me be clear. No one in the senate chamber wants to extend the ACA tax credits more than I do.

The ONLY good part of this is that Mike Johnson will have to reconvene the House.

Vote 'em all out!
EIGHT Senate Democrats have voted to advance the funding measure so far after the deal was reached:

Cortez Masto
Durbin
Fetterman
Hassan
Kaine
King
Rosen
Shaheen

If the existing 52 Republicans hold, that's 60 — enough to advance this agreement. Final vote still to come.

@padilla.senate.gov @schiff.senate.gov Hope you guys are excited to get primaried if you vote for this horseshit deal.

Once again we are back to: What exactly is the point of the Democratic Party?
So Democrats get:

1. A CR that will prevent the GOP from facing the wrath of Americans for a shutdown over the holidays

2. A coupon for one (1) meaningless ACA vote that will fail

3. An end to the illegal RIF/SNAP moves that are already before the courts

Those all seem like wins for the GOP.

I don't know what the Senate is going to do. But if they do in fact fold in exchange for nothing, they will be living up to past performance. To expect the Senate to carry out the will of the American people is to misunderstand why it was created in the first place.

Very exciting that Senate Democrats learned absolutely nothing from Tuesday's massive victories.

Posting a screenshot of Katherine Stoeffel from her interview with Sydney Sweeney is a signal that you are a huge asshole.

I would LOVE to see a reporter ask Trump what day it is.
Comer on why he thinks Biden's pardons were worse than Trump saying he knows nothing about people he's pardoning: "Nobody is accusing Donald Trump of not knowing what day it is, what year it is, the pardon process and things like that, so I think there's a big difference."

Kevin O'Leary is a horrible person and Mamdani is right to not meet with him
 Canadian multimillionaire and Shark Tank guy Kevin O'Leary went on TV to say he's upset Zohran won't talk to him: "I and others who invest in real estate have tried to get a meeting to figure out what's rhetoric and what's policy. So far for me it's been crickets."

I'm trying to imagine the series of meetings that led to this policy
"Store employees are now required to smile if they are within 10 feet of a shopper.

They also must make eye contact with and wave to or greet the customer.

If they’re within four feet, the employee should ask how the customer’s day is going or if they need help."

🙄 Won't stop the boycott, y'all.
Target is now requiring its employees to smile more
As the holiday season fast approaches, Target is urging its employees to add a little more “jolly” to their work routine.

I'm so old when Republicans, and VC-bros in particular, would lose their shit at Kamala Harris and Elizabeth Warren for pushing similar government actions.
Trump says he’s told DOJ to investigate the meatpacking companies, which he blames for high prices.

Was Chuck awake on Tuesday night?
SCHUMER is on the floor now making this offer to end the shutdown:

Clean CR
Bipartisan "minibus" of approps bills
1-year ACA funding extension
Bipartisan cmte to negotiate on health care

"This is a reasonable offer that reopens the government, deals with health care affordability."
