Trump doesn't like smart men or women, which means almost everyone except his MAGA base….

What was the damn point of the shutdown? People missed paychecks, families went without SNAP, and Democrats walked away with nothing.

This isn’t about moderates versus the far left. It’s about who’s actually fighting for people who are struggling.

She nails where so many of us are right now.

Wal-Mart called and said they needed that $2B of SNAP money to help their holiday bottom line.Then the airline executives called and cried that they didn’t want to have the flight reduction. Then the lobbyists called and…you get the picture. It wasn’t about the people, never has been, never will be.

We had all the momentum

•The American people were blaming Republicans

•A landslide Democratic victory

•Courts ordering Trump to fund SNAP benefits

Yet you couldn't convince your caucus to fight for us

It's the final straw that breaks the back of your tenure as leader, Senator

Time to step down
Democrats have been fighting for months to address America's healthcare crisis

For the millions who will lose coverage
For people with cancer who won't get the care they need
For working families who can't afford to pay $25K more a year for healthcare

We will keep fighting

MI voter. It’s El-Sayed or McMorrow for me. Steven’s is an establishment Dem
The campaign has barely started, but here’s an introduction to the contenders, including some of the potential and peril they would bring to the Democratic ticket.

This State Will Determine If Dems Win the Senate—and Give an MRI of Their Soul

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.

The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.

People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives.

And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

You are selling out the American people @democrats.org
NEW: It appears Senate Dems have enough votes for cloture with Jacky Rosen flipping to a yes vote. Rand Paul voted no. Kaine, Rosen, Fetterman, Shaheen, Hassen, King, Durbin, Cortez-Masto are the dems yes votes.

Thank god!!!
Penei Sewell out of the tent and back on sideline. Did some moving around. Thought he was running out for the PAT for a second there. But a good sign. 14-3 Lions.
