Every time you capitulate to a bully, they'll come back at you twice as brutally.

If you didn't learn this life lesson in third grade, GTFO of the US Senate.

This is what a bunch of Democrats in the Senate just voted for:
"The provision, tucked into a measure to fund the legislative branch, appears to immediately allow for eight GOP senators to sue over their phone records being seized in the course of the investigation by Jack Smith ... into the riot at the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021." www.nytimes.com/2025/11/10/u...
Spending Bill Would Pave Way for Senators to Sue Over Phone Searches
Republicans have voiced outrage that Jack Smith looked at G.O.P. lawmakers’ phone records surrounding the Jan. 6 attack. Legislation to reopen the government would allow them to sue for $500,000 each.

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.

Remember when they said the reason they caved in March was so they could get a better deal in September lmao

Ro Khanna, who has called for Chuck Schumer to be replaced, says the only reason other Democrats aren't calling for it is because it would "offend a lot of donors."

"Are we gonna be beholden to the donors that have gotten us two terms of Donald Trump, or are we gonna listen to people?"

So many people are going to suffer and die due to not being able to afford health insurance in January. Our representatives are mostly rich and have excellent government funded health care so they will never understand choosing between food and medicine.

I no longer believe Democrats even care.
reprehensible to me that regular citizens putting their bodies on the line to protest ICE abductions are showing more courage every day than our elected officials.

Any democratic senator not calling for Schumer to step down is complicit. And we will replace them all with people willing to fight

Many Americans are hurting right now because of the shutdown, but caving to Republicans won’t end the hurt.

Trump and his lapdogs continue to assert that they alone have the power to slash whatever programs they don’t like.

Deals with this regime are meaningless.

Democrats seem to think the pivoting to the center makes them most electable but all it does it piss *everyone* off.

Having beliefs/a backbone and being authentic is the best way to win elections. People are fucking sick of croneyism and corporate suck ups and that is why Zohran cruised to victory

The people showed up in the streets for "No Kings."

They did their part.

The people showed up at the polls on Tuesday.

They did their part.

8 Democrats in the Senate surrendered last night.

They did not do their part.

Important to note that the DNC, House Dems, 2028 contenders, and even the most pro-leadership pundits and influencers are all laying on Senate Dems right now.

They betrayed all of us. Schumer has no allies left.

Two things:

1. I hope you’re not having a “wonderful” day. I hope you are seething…the red hot kind of seething.

2. I hope you choose to channel that into constructive action; the kind that puts a great deal of distance between you…and thoughts of “what’s the use?!”

NEW: The First Circuit Court of Appeals has denied the Trump admin's efforts to stop the release of full funding for November's SNAP benefits payments as ordered by a lower court judge.

The Supreme Court's administrative stay will now expire 48 hours after the 1st Circuit's ruling.

Call the United States Capitol switchboard at (202) 224-3121 and they will connect you with your senator's office.

No matter how they voted last night, every one of them has a say in maintaining Chuck Schumer and Dick Durbin as their caucus leaders. Every one of them is accountable here.

Obama always said don’t boo, VOTE but everyone needs to see this compilation of the videos being posted where Trump is being booed/flicked off by so many in the Commander’s stadium. He is not popular in DC with so many who are laid off, furloughed, hungry, sick, & harrassed by his regime.
