Through every shutdown in history, the government has still provided economic data to the American people.
They aren’t doing it this time because the numbers are fucking terrible.

@murray.senate.gov , @schumer.senate.gov , @cantwell.senate.gov This is what the surrender caucus has gotten us. Weeks of suffering, no paychecks, no SNAP for absolutely nothing. @schumer.senate.gov needs to resign from leadership immediately and find someone who can lead the party take his place.
In the most predictable development ever, Mike Johnson is not committing to hold a House vote on ACA subsidies

I'll get back to "party unity" as soon as the Senate Minority Leader tells us if he voted for the Democratic party nominee for mayor of his city.
I'm tired of party unity only ever running one way.

I just called my Democratic senators and urged them to ask Schumer to step down as leader. He is either incompetent to hold the caucus together or he wanted the vote to go the way it did and is to big a coward to admit it in public. Either way, he is not the leader we need.

This is my thought, exactly. He has to go.
"Either Schumer was scheming to end the shutdown behind the scenes, pretending to be against it while pinning the blame on the eight people who aren’t up for reelection anytime soon, or he has no control over his party. Either way, it proves the need for Democrats to jettison the minority leader."

I heard there are going to be nationwide 'No Kings' protests on Trump's birthday, so that's fun.
Remember, one 10,000 person march is ineffective.
Ten 1,000 person marches spread out all over the city is the way to go.

I've been telling friends this for years. They want you trapped in your job working for them with no options to leave. That's one reason why we don't have universal healthcare; when you're health insurance is tied to employment, you'll put up with almost anything to keep it.
America’s billionaires and their executives want a nation of slaves, and for years if you said so people would accuse you of fearmongering, but now that the billionaires are saying it outright, people are … still accusing you of fearmongering.

This sounds like it could be pretty awful. I’ll wait for the lawyers to review it but it sounds like something the MAGA regime is eager for.

Abrego Garcia should not be in a notoriously inhumane prison. Trump could get him back if he wanted to. But instead his henchman Stephen Miller is back to claiming “the right person [was] sent to the right place.” Disgusting. (2/2)
