they just love admitting this shit out loud, man
🚨 Tim Kaine is saying the quiet part out loud - underscoring why anyone shouldn't be satisfied with any of the "no" statements or posts from Dem Senators.
If Dem Senators are truly disgusted with this save they should be calling on #SurrenderSchumer to step aside as the Leader immediately.

Wife of a furloughed federal worker here. We live in Okinawa & they aren't paying our housing or his salary. We are worried about neighbors & coworkers in the same boat. This sucks. But what sucks worse? Dems fucking betraying us and caving so all of this was for nothing right when we had leverage.

sometimes i feel like the republican party is a big tornado that is coming to kill me. and the democratic party is the rickety shed that i'm hiding in. and i say "we should really fix this shed, because it's not doing much." and people say "what? why aren't you criticizing the tornado instead?!"

they tell you that dirty pair (1985) has an episode with a trans woman in it, but what they don't tell you is that the antagonist of the episode used her and her fiancee's love of hamburgers to manipulate her

Pretty much all affordability discourse could benefit from just posting this chart.
If you're in the better off America, all the luxury goods you want in excess are for the most part much cheaper. If you're in the poorer America, most of the shit you need to live/grow is more expensive.

Sharing this thread in case it is helpful. I mistakenly thought that all tax credits were on the chopping block. I contacted the agent who renews my ACA application annually and was surprised to find out that's not the case. Still a disaster for those effected.

I just emailed the insurance agent to ask what the rate will be without the tax credit. 😬

To try and help clear up confusion going around BSky at the moment regarding the gov’t shutdown:
The Democratic Party folded. They agreed to re-open government for a PROMISE of a vote.
Yes, SNAP recipients suffered for *nothing*.
Yes, there was NO ACA extension.
Yes, they accepted ALL the blame.

I'm also saying this because you should treat your voter registration strategically, and not as a form of identity.

I'm mostly pointing this out because a lot of dems are likely going to be primaried from the left in 2026 and you want to ask yourself if you want to make you ineligible to vote in those primaries.

It's useful to think of your voter registration as strategic. In some states it might benefit you to register as a Republican even if you aren't one.
I'm not here to say how you should register. I am saying that strategic voting exists.

This is no shade to Karen, but a lot depends on how primaries are held in your state. If you're a progressive in a closed primary state like NY, congrats registering as an independent blocked you from voting from Mamdani in the primary. If you're in an open primary state, you do you.
And this is why I’m registered as an independent.
