Voters want a Democratic Party that fights back against the forces that have rigged the system and made their lives more difficult.
A party that comforts the afflicted and afflicts the comfortable —not a party that buckles and capitulates.
When will party leadership learn this lesson?

CNN: The head of the House Progressive Caucus called this a betrayal...Can you respond to that?
Shaheen: That [ACA tax credits extension] was my first legislation this year, and I intend to continue to fight...They need to train their fire on the people who are responsible.

Hearing from more people after this went out.
"We're all pissed. This was a lot of unnecessary stress on people and their families for nothing. And if I win the lottery tonight I absolutely will spend millions to hire people to follow these 8 Dems around for a year and make their lives miserable."

I heard from a bunch of federal employees last night and this morning. They aren't happy.
"I would rather be an actual pawn. At least pawn sacrifices are calculated and achieve something. All this for a fucking meaningless vote."

Sanders: Let’s be clear… If this vote succeeds, over 20 million Americans are going to see at least a doubling in their premiums… if resolution is passed tonight, we are on a path way to throw 15 million Americans off of medicaid and the affordable care act, 15 million.

It is worse than promised.
Or maybe Senate Democrats are aware of how pissed off voters will be?
This alleged deal guarantees a BILLION dollars in spending for security and police at the Capitol, and then a pinky promise to hold a vote on ACA subsidies that will surely lose.
Not sure a billion will even be enough but OK.

Someone should go there and show them the clips of Trump's Great Gatsby party. I bet they'd be so happy to know he's having fun.
This is the food distribution line at Nellis Air Force Base in Las Vegas 11/7/25. This is what Trump doesn't want you to see.

💸 $100MM of our tax dollars are leaving public classrooms this year — diverted to private and religious schools. This is the result of fiscally irresponsible legislation from the Free State movement and Liberty Alliance, signed by Governor Kelly Ayotte.
