I listened to a lot of Limbaugh in the 90s & know exactly what they were saying and it’s so clear they never meant anything they said, we have 1000% been played, and even at my most black hearted cynical moments I was never cynical enough. I thought Baylor was bad but what the actual hell is this?

This is actually good spin, or would have been. But the fact that the Democratic cave happened without even a coordinated, agreed-upon message like this indicates the depth of the leadership void.

While you are organizing— and remember: the GOP is the main problem, they are in power and can stop this whenever— don’t forget to donate to Federal Unions’ funds for workers and do something to help you remember other things exist, like the bird feed!

The good news is everyone gets to bother their representatives now!
Republicans are in power. They are the main ones at fault for the shutdown and that needs to be repeated constantly. For each time you yell at a Democratic politician, yell at a GOP one twice.

Why not? Also you can go to the FEC’s website to figure out how much you’ve donated, then call and tell them not a penny more. Also, consider joining your local party org so you can go to conventions, vote on endorsements, and help write platforms.

Quick thread on timing of reopening the government, if they’re able to invoke cloture on MTP. (That’s a 60 voter, so you need 8 Dems assuming Rand Paul is still a no.)
For timing, if they invoke cloture today (assume after 6pm), that begins the 30 hours of debate. Takes us to Tuesday for MTP vote.
