A Tale of Two Veterans.
The 1st Veteran I ever met plucked me from an orphanage, told everyone, including my soon-to-be Mother, that they were adopting me or remaining childless.
He gave me his name, his home, his family and made sure I understood that like him, they were mine, forever.

They failed to recognize that the hurt might actually solidify broad and widespread opposition to the fascists. Or they are just corporate stooges under a different label.

Israel’s parliament passed the first reading of a #bill that would introduce the death penalty for “terrorism”, which critics say would apply almost exclusively to #Palestinians who kill #Israelis and not Israelis who carry out attacks on Palestinians.
Israel parliament passes first reading of death penalty for ‘terrorism’ law
Critics say the bill would apply only to Palestinians who kill Jews, not the other way around.

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.
The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.
People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives.
And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

Hill sources say more than 10 Dems are leaning toward a GOP deal that gives away our leverage for empty promises — this is the moment to hold the line, not surrender.

I've called my Dem senators (WA state), and left messages telling them not to cave. I doubt it changes a damn thing though. The party is worse than useless at this point.
I'm hearing the same thing. Dems are nearing a surrender. I'm shocked. Largest protest in history + best election night in years + polling showing we're kicking their ass in public opinion. And now Dems may cave.
It ain't over til it's over, so please do call if you've got a Dem senator.

Sounds like the squishes in the senate caucus are ready to pull the plug with no ACA changes. This is real. If you want to register your opinion you shld call yr senator in the next hour. They not only want to reopen w/nothing. They want cover from their colleagues who still want to hold out.

I don't know what the Senate is going to do. But if they do in fact fold in exchange for nothing, they will be living up to past performance. To expect the Senate to carry out the will of the American people is to misunderstand why it was created in the first place.

Caving on a deal that doesn’t fix health care is, and always has been, a giant betrayal of the American people.
Hold the line. Save health care. I’m a NO on anything that doesn’t extend ACA subsidies.

Unacceptable. There are 189,000 people in my district who will be paying 50–300% more for the same, and in many cases worse, healthcare.
