Thank you for your service.

Let's not be naive. He's the leader of the party. He always folds because he doesn't really work for us, and this time he found 8 senators who were not up for reelection to take the fall. It was no coincidence.

Anas Sarwar,& Scottish branch office of UK Labour, are entirely opposed to devolution. When they respond to ScotGov complaints about Westminster policies not working for Scotland, their automatic ingrained response is not how to help Scotland but how to blame Holyrood for Westminster's failings.

"The Democratic base is enraged, not only at Trump but at their own leaders. And anger is an incredibly powerful force.
Democratic politicians themselves are already showing that they feel it."
Some very important & encouraging historical context in PN today
Everyone should read this:
New in PN: Cue the rebellion

"The unfortunate conclusion to the shutdown is going to fuel a rebellion within the Democratic Party, one that has already begun but will only get stronger. And despite all the justified disgust now being expressed at Dems, in the long run it will be good for the party"
Cue the rebellion
The Democratic base is enraged at their party's capitulation — and that's a good thing.
