House Democrats need to reject this bad deal. Giving up on the 24 million people about to face astronomical health premium hikes — in exchange for a hypothetical future vote that Mike Johnson may not agree to & Trump certainly won’t sign — is truly weak.
The Senate on Sunday night took the first step toward ending the longest shutdown in U.S. history, after a group of Democrats broke their party’s blockade and voted with Republicans to advance legislation to reopen the government.
Senate Moves Toward Ending Shutdown After Democratic Defectors Relent
A small but critical group of Democrats backed legislation to fund the government, providing the votes to move forward with a spending package that would end the shutdown in coming days.

Draft planning documents show the scheme is ambitious: ICE wants a contractor capable of staffing the centers around the clock, constantly processing cases on tight deadlines, and supplying the agency with subscription-based surveillance software.

It’s time for a #nationalstrike in solidarity with the federal workforce, Republicans have forgotten who they work for and billionaires have forgotten whose backs they built their fortunes upon and whose hands and labor built it. STRIKE.

Most of the power authoritarians have is freely given. We should not comply with them in advance.
Trump is far weaker than he looks. So is the GOP. We should draw them out, drain them at every opportunity, and fight for people’s wellbeing at every turn.

AOC: I think there's two things that are happening at once: One, there absolutely is an unprecedented abuse of power, destruction of norms, erosion of our government and our democracy in order to prop up an authoritarian style of governance
However, they are weaker than they look…

NEW: We now know what Bove lied to Congress about according to the 3rd whistleblower. He lied when he said he didn’t offer promotions for DoJ lawyers who helped him dismiss the Eric Adams case and consequences for those who didn’t. There is audio evidence. Gift link: wapo.st/4fdVVmX

As an American, I don't know what to say to Canadians. Yes, our President is constantly threatening to annex you.
No, I can't say for sure he won't try. I can't blame you for taking it seriously, nor for retaliating against our tariffs. I'd do the same if I were you.
It sucks.

You can watch Christiane Amanpour realize in real time on CNN just how seriously Canadians are taking the annexation threats.

@bera.house.gov I voted for you to act as my voice, censuring a fellow democrat who had the courage to protest what’s happening is not what I want from you. Disappointment is not accurate, failure is more like it. You need to resist or get out of the way.
