Reminder that your senator probably still sucks even if they voted no because Senate Dems rotate around unpopular votes to protect whoever they think is vulnerable. That’s why they always magically have exactly enough to pass.

How about we shut down the government for this very popular and specific goal and then, hear me out, we hold out for like a month and a half and then, ok this part is important, after a watershed election where we ran the table, ONLY THEN, fold and don't get the one thing we said we wanted.

I can't believe they're going to cave. (I can.) But if you can have the best election in years and still fully sell out the people days later, safe to say there's no way back from here.

This perfectly encapsulates how I feel living in the US. The republican party is an insane death cult, the democratic party is 3 corporations in a trench coat, and the "socialists" are just the completely normal left-wing capitalists you'd find in any of 2 dozen European nations.
Europeans recognize Zohran Mamdani’s supposedly radical policies as ‘normal’

I think I hate, "person who cannot bear to think outside my own experience even for one moment and thus require all jokes and/or comments to be normed to my tastes" replies *almost* as much as the actual baddies. 🙃
