SUPERB and angrily unvarnished response, by former BBC chairman, Lord Patten.

"I don't think that we should allow ourselves to be bullied into thinking that the BBC is only any good, if it reflects the prejudice of the last person who shouted at it." ~AA

Remembering my pop on Veterans Day. I still have his 3rd Division ring. He gave it to me in the hospital before he died.

Who uses SNAP?

My friend, who works, raising 5 kids, husband bailed and won’t pay child support

My neighbor battling cancer and her life-saving meds are so expensive, she chooses between meds or food

My friend who’s a vet and struggles with mental health issues.

Not one of them chose this.
Trump claims that food stamps "puts the country in jeopardy. People that are able-bodied can do a job, they leave their job because they figure they can pick this up, it's easier."

I think I ‘ve been doing Swedish Death Cleaning. I didn’t mean to but a week or so ago I started rearranging the closet under the stairs. I almost wanted to move in there when I was done. I then moved on to the kitchen pantries and did those.Then the master bath. I’m ADHD and I was on cleaning run

Flood @schumer.senate.gov office and demand he whip his caucus to vote NO.

Don't bother commenting "why bother", "who cares", or any other demoralizing, obstructionist, fatalist sentiment about futility. I will hide it.

EVERYTHING we've accomplished was from DOING SOMETHING. Like calls.
There’s still time to call senators. Let me explain. Sorry not sorry about the cat. He’s also really upset about this deal.

Here’s what I would take to reopen the government:

60 day CR

Guarantee up or down vote on ACA before reg closes and allow re-enrollment to change with new prices

SNAP paid at 100% for November

Guarantee of back pay for all federal workers.

Good morning Blueskyers it’s brilliantly blue this morning. Another eternal monday where 8 democrats have turned their backs on everything the rest of us are working for. Trump was increasingly brutal and they blinked. Capitulation

This is what it sounds like when you sleep through the barrage of blue wins on Tuesday. Wins many didn’t expect.

Some of these were stomping loudly for healthcare. Until they didn’t.

PRIMARY every single one of these cowards!

A leader would not have lost eight colleagues tonight. This happened because you let it happen or because you’ve totally lost control of the caucus in one of the most important moments since you’ve been Democratic leader. Either way, it’s on you. You need to step down. We need someone who can lead.
Democrats have been fighting for months to address America's healthcare crisis

For the millions who will lose coverage
For people with cancer who won't get the care they need
For working families who can't afford to pay $25K more a year for healthcare

We will keep fighting
