If you watched only this game and you heard this Philadelphia crowd, you would think the Eagles were 0-1,262.

Let me use MAGA logic & agree with them for a thought experiment.
The National Guard shooter is an Afghan national, so we must deport all Afghans & Muslims & stop immigration.
OK.
Trump's failed assassins were 2 white men. White men are the #1 domestic shooters in America.
So, deport all whites?

Remember: An estimated 70% of congressional Republicans may financially benefit from the tax cuts in their Big Ugly Bill.
While cutting Medicaid and food stamps for millions — including many of their own constituents — these lawmakers may be enriching themselves.
Priorities.

The original Dem demands were:
1) Permanent ACA subsidies
2) Medicaid funding restored
3) No more blank checks for the regime (rescission)
They dropped Medicaid immediately. Went silent on rescission. Cut back to 1 year of subsidies on Friday. And surrendered today.
The Senate Democrats!

This needs to be said to each Republican representative and senator. Repeatedly. If not in person, then flood their emails & phones.

It wasn’t just tonight.
Dems have dramatically outperformed 2024 in nearly every special election also in 2025 before tonight.
But Republicans still don’t get what is happening out there.
Keep enabling all the worst abuses of Trump and many of you will be voted out next.

Medicare for All would save $450B a year.
Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity.
Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall.
It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford.
It’s about priorities.

When ICE comes to Philly it’s going to be brutal
Portland resists with whimsical improv theater, Chicago resists by screaming at weird jagoffs that don’t belong in the neighborhood. Every city brings its own strengths to the fight
The energy we need is this suburban dad standing out in the street -- barefoot with Blackhawks pajama pants on -- screaming at the masked goons to get the fuck out of their neighborhood.

Health insurance costs jumped for workers & employers in 2025.
This will get worse if the GOP refuses to extend ACA subsidies.
Meanwhile, the seven largest health insurance companies made a combined $71B in profits in 2024.
Still not sure we need Medicare for All?

Mike Johnson, fake Christian, doesn't think a Republican congressman beating up his girlfriend is "really serious."
Q: This has been reported for a while. Cory Mills was accused of beating a girlfriend in his DC apt. Are you concerned about these allegations?
JOHNSON: You have to ask Rep. Mills about that. He's been a faithful colleague. I don't know the details. Let's talk about things that are really serious
