Good news in the caving by the 8 Dem Senators.
Johnson has no rationale to not seat our latest Dem from AZ and the CR on Epstein is still sitting there.
Focus goes from SNAP, Heating Oil and RIFs to ACA and Epstein.

I've looked at all the details of this deal to end the shutdown reached by a small group of Senate Democrats. I've talked to a number of friends on the Hill to see if there's anything I'm missing. Sadly, I am not.
This is a shit deal. It's a betrayal. It's cowardice.

Read about WHY Ketanji Brown Jackson stayed the SNAP order. Her move is probably the best solution for getting SNAP benefits approved quickly. open.substack.com/pub/stevevla...

Buried in the Big Beautiful Bill were changes to food assistance that demanded “any future change be cost-neutral. Translation: no more benefit increases, even if food prices skyrocket.”
The result was “institutionalized hunger.”

She's a rockstar as was Tip. The R's are all a forgotten bunch of alchis, pedos, and losers.
I have known Nancy Pelosi since she came to the House. She is simply the greatest Speaker ever. But she also is an extraordinary person. In my moment of greatest personal grief she was there for me and my family. She will leave a remarkable legacy.

After sparking a public backlash, Trump tries to avoid blame for Democratic election wins
The morning after the 2025 elections, the president didn’t literally say, “Don’t blame me for the political mess I created,” but it was the subtext.
