Is the shutdown over? Not yet.
Tonight’s vote was only step 1 of 5.
There’s still another 60-vote hurdle, amendments, AND then the House.
Pressure matters right now—especially on Kaine, Rosen, Hassan, Shaheen.
Stay loud.

Great job, @schumer.senate.gov. You've changed the story from "GOP hurting millions of Americans to please unpopular, failing, delusional despot who's destroying his party" to "Dems are too weak and divided in the face of Trump's strength to take a stand and protect Americans"

It remains the case that the key divide within the Democratic party does not map onto a left/right axis: It is between those who want to fight back forcefully and those who can’t/won’t shake the impulse to accommodate, appease, and legitimize.
Politics is not over. But "normalcy" very much is.

Here's a better response to RFK's destruction of our public health system than what Senator Schatz is offering here, from JB Pritzker (with some additional ideas thrown in from me and public health experts):

American media treats Trump identically. It's not journalism.
Putin rarely says anything grounded in reality, yet major news outlets dutifully publish his quotes, forgetting to mention that he never honors his own words.
The fact that this cycle never ends is one of the reasons russian propaganda is so successful.

Can the media STOP referring to Jeffrey Epstein as a “financier”? The money he made came from SEX TRAFFICKING MINORS, RAPING CHILDREN, and BLACKMAIL. He was NOT a financier. I’ve seen at least five stories from three outlets refer to him this way in the past week. This is the latest from the Times:

If you're 60, 69.1% of all job growth since your birth occurred under Democratic administrations.
If you're 45, that number is 74.7%.
If you're under 28, the number is 100%.
Happy Labor Day.
