"I wish
it need not
have happened
in my time," said Frodo.
"So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do
all who live to see such times. But
that is not for them to decide.
All we have to decide
is what to do with
the time that is
given us."

I voted no tonight.
But the next phase of Democrats’ health care affordability fight is starting.
While I personally don’t believe Republicans will keep their promise to work with us on lowering health care costs, I would be thrilled to be wrong.

From Virginia up to Maine, New Jersey out to California, and plenty of places in between, Tuesday was a great night for democracy — and an awful night for President Donald Trump. Democracy Docket loved tracking every win — and explaining what it all amounted to. But we did a lot else this week, too.

Johnson: "Grijalva should be working for her constituents right now. I don't know what she's doing. I keep seeing their political stunt videos. She should be in her office. She should be working or in the district for her constituents" (Grijalva is not in fact a Rep. b/c Johnson refuses to seat her)

The Dems who are caving are doing so not because their base wants them to,

not because the fed workers and SNAP recipients want them to…
they are caving because their DONORS want them to.
And that’s really all that ever matters to the corrupt

Our soldiers stationed overseas shouldn't be getting guidance from our government to look to local food banks for support.
I wonder how the German government would feel about paying for our forces to eat? 🤔
Not to mention, and more importantly, local people need that food.
