Never trust corporate social media.

From New York. Tech person by trade. Became much more involved in politics when the GOP lost it's mind.

Gutted by the Dems caving after the blue-wave wins of last week? Sick & tired of us snatching defeat from the jaws of victory? I hear you! Might I suggest you calm yourself, relax, take a deep, cleansing breath... then see if this photo of 2 pandas cuddling is of any help.

Reporter: Dr Oz said that—

Jeffries: Who? Nobody who is serious in this country takes Dr. Oz seriously… I’m not going to respond to any comments from randos like Dr. Oz who is woefully unqualified.

If you think the people throwing Great Gatsby-esque parties for themselves, while millions were denied their food assistance, are all of a sudden going to grow a conscience and save affordable healthcare, you clearly have not been paying attention.

This deal to reopen the government is fucking disgraceful.

Tens of millions will lose their healthcare. Trump will be emboldened.

This is exactly what’s wrong with Democratic Party leadership and why we need more people in Congress who will actually hold the line.

To cheer myself up, I'm watching videos of Trump getting booed during the Commanders game

What could possibly be worse than watching the Commanders try to tackle Jahmyr Gibbs? Oh. Right.

Oh... look who's hanging around like a spider in the background on the far left at the Commanders game...

Yep... it's none other than pedo-protector Mike Johnson having a let-them-eat-cake day while on his paid vacation.

The Trump Curse: Commanders Humiliated 44–22 After President’s Stadium Appearance Sparks Boos and Chaos
It was meant to be a triumphant photo-op — a sitting president stepping into the heart of American sports, bathed in cheers and patriotism. Instead, it turned into a humiliation that fans are alrea…

sure, chuck, but you as senate minority leader should be publicly whipping the votes for the 8 who broke with the caucus. that's your job, and you haven't done it. and we all see you aren't doing it. you aren't forcing your caucus as you should be as their leader.

In response to this claim that the "strategy didn't work."

The people were on our side. We were building momentum to help save our democracy. We could have won - the premium increase notices were just starting.

And giving in now will embolden him. Things will likely get worse.

NYT - Kash Patel's inexperience, his dismissals of top FBI officials and his shift of resources from thwarting spies and terrorism have heightened concerns among the other Five Eyes nations that the bureau is adrift. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/10/wo...
F.B.I. Director Is Said to Have Made a Pledge to Head of MI5, Then Broken It
The episode has contributed to concerns among intelligence allies that Kash Patel, brash and partisan, is also unpredictable and even unreliable.

This is really good to see: Miki Sherrill just put out a statement sharply criticizing the Senate Dems' pending cave in the government shutdown, ripping it as "malpractice" and a betrayal of the people who are "counting on us to fight for them." Sherrill knows what drove her victory. Wake up, Dems.

I begrudge Trump and his regime, the air they breathe. For the Democrats to capitulate on the same eve as Trump being mercilessly boo’d at the Commanders game, emphasizes the need to change the leadership and old ways of the party. The public is literally screaming for new ways in place of tradition

Seeing Donald Trump get booed at the Commanders game was like hearing freedom hit a high note, the sweet sound of accountability echoing through the stadium.

Durbin is trash. Yes, lots of great stuff in the past. Sure he’s a decent guy. But he’s pure trash now. Important to see that the bulk of Team Cave is made up of people who are retiring.
Durbin is a YES on this deal: “At Democrats’ urging, today’s bill is not the same one we’ve voted down 14 times. Republicans finally woke up and realized their Groundhog Day needed to end. This bill is not perfect, but it takes important steps to reduce their shutdown’s hurt.”

This is key. The vote the Dems secured here is a fake nominal vote. Everyone knows this.
