Precisely why you don’t cave to begin with.
Ppl need to understand what's happening here.

The GOP response to the shutdown was: You're gonna cave, or we're going to hurt vulnerable people by shutting off SNAP. The Dems, unwilling to let that happen, caved.

Having watched that, the GOP is now saying: "Give us what we want on abortion or ..."
NEWS: Senate Republicans are threatening to block the extension of Affordable Care Act subsidies—unless Democrats agree to tougher abortion restrictions.
When Pitt controls the fate of half the college football world
Repost with an iconic fictional band
What percentage of the “Pitt should get its own stadium” Steeler dorks actually know that the STEELERS DONT HAVE THEIR OWN STADIUM EITHER
Hope he’s enjoying…thanks to Pitt

Steelers are 1-3 since this tweet
Well this is some bullshit
Every now and again the default samsung Movie Hub channel that’s on whenever we first turn on the Tv gets it right. Tonight is “Starship Troopers”
Right. And if that’s the case they picked the correct weeks to be good
DL will rise to the occasion imo. OL worries me but for that reason I’m glad they played like crap against Stanford
Absolutely flabbergasted at the attention this quote is getting
Confirmed? (Altho I can’t imagine where else they would have it)

Yeah I’m not an apologist for whenever he says dumb shit but this is nothing
Again- this is Duzz-speak for “I want to beat these pricks so bad”
Pat Narduzzi on if this game is a "must win" for Pitt: "Absolutely not. It's not an ACC game. ... They could put 100 up on us as long as we win the next two."
I do believe that is Rah-rah in Duzz speak. Just have to read between the lines
Lol
Narduzzi says some former ACC coaches whined about playing Clemson every year when the ACC eliminated divisions.

Like it or not, this is how it will play out. Because our political press largely gets their narratives from conservatives. So expect Ds to be cast as failures and weak—but also somehow totally responsible for all this even though it’s Republicans who control every branch of the government.
If Dems accept this deal, it will help the GOP cement the following ideas into the public conscience over the coming 4 weeks:

-Shutdown was Dems fault/responsibility
-They did it for nothing
-They caved to Trump

Having accepted responsibility, it will also cripple them in the follow up debate.
First, I will say this: never believe an Axios backed story with only a Thune test vote schedule.

That being said, for obvious reasons to anyone who sees my posts regularly, I don't think a deal is a good idea for Dems, but the rumored deal seems pretty poor even factoring in my priors against.
Wow, inspiring
Sen. Angus King on why Democrats caved: "It wasn't working."
I really need a first round home 28 point thrashing by KC to hit the reset button
