Criticism of our leaders when they get it wrong is important. It's not weakness. It's how we get what we voted for, not empty excuses about why we didn't get it. Ds punted on 1st down on the 1yd line and we should be furious with them. We're fighting a dictator and oligarchy.

Folks, the reporting is that Trump is making PERSONAL CALLS to Mace, MTG and others about the discharge petition. Would you be doing this if you had nothing to hide? Let's please all be serious here.

If you focus on only one thing, let it be this, making Citizens United irrelevant in your state. Montana is taking the lead in their state, but you can do it in your state too. disruptdarkmoney.feather.blog/the-montana-...

It's time for @vanhollen.senate.gov to be our new minority leader. We need a fighter and someone who gets what's happening.

They're either very stupid or think we are. I suspect it's the latter. Otherwise I have to assume that every one of these Senators who betrayed us could easily lose their life savings to a scam artist.
Shaheen: "We've heard from a number of our colleagues on the other side of the aisle that they're willing to come to the table, they're willing to work with us once the govt is open to get this done. We've heard the same thing from the White House. So now we'll see if they're really gonna work w/us"

Is the shutdown over? Not yet.
Last night's vote was only step 1 of 5.
There’s still another 60-vote hurdle, amendments, and then the House. Nothing has reopened. Pressure matters right now, especially on:
@kaine.senate.gov
@rosen.senate.gov
@shaheen.senate.gov

Republicans were overwhelmingly getting blamed for the shutdown.
There was no reason for the Democrats to cave to Trump on healthcare, except for the fact that they are wholly owned and operated by the health insurance lobby.
