“This was the straw that broke the camel’s back,” Khanna told the podcast Breaking Points. “You’ve had Chuck Schumer cheerleading the war in Iraq, ... cheerleading a blank cheque to [Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin] Netanyahu, you’ve had Chuck Schumer betraying us on the first shutdown.”
Democrats are at war over ‘caving’ to Trump – and directing their rage at one man

Trump's £1 bn lawsuit against the BBC doesn't stack up. If he sues for damages, what are the damages given that he won the election? If he sues in US, what happens to the 1st ammendment? If it's in the UK, will he submit to cross-examination about what happened on Jan 6th?

U.S Republicans must love to hear the ‘shame’ blame against them as it allows them to thrive and get away with everything they are doing and use that to keep playing U.S Democrats for total weak fools who seem to naively believe that shame works as a defence
Hassan: My vote was to do two things: 1) Make sure the government is functioning… 2) continue the fight to a realistic platform to get the premium tax cuts done. If that is not successful, then shame on the Republican Party and shame on Donald Trump.
