@lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com Not buying it, Lawrence. We didn't march in the street. Organize and donate. Stuff envelopes and make calls. Face down armed soldiers. We didn't do any of that to have our team cave.

IT IS A LOSS. They squandered the greatest amount of political capital since Obama.

So apparently senators must now be notified in advance if their phone records are requested during the investigation of a crime. No one else, just senators. So they're free to crime and can't be investigated without notice. This is so wrong, but it's great for senators who want to commit crimes.

Let’s start naming it. This isn’t an “admin,” a government,” a “president,” it’s a Dictatorship, and a Dictator fleecing all for profit. We are just watching all vanish while journalists and Dems normalize them, or use “fascism, autocracy, kleptocracy” (which most of the US can’t define). 🌱

Language buried in this shutdown “deal” allows 8 GOP Senators who tried to throw a coup, sue to get millions in taxpayer money—because Jack Smith got their phone records. THEY TRIED TO THROW A COUP. There is no excuse for any Dem supporting this. This is absolutely wrong. Full stop—Period.

I'm just speculating here, but I think the popular backlash against establishment dems is going to be FIERCE.

This latest betrayal came at the heels of a wildly successful election, against a grossly unpopular president. The Dems teased us for weeks, pretending to stand firm.

And they succumbed.

Since January, Trump's Treasury has quietly gutted enforcement of the corporate alternative minimum tax — a huge boon for big business and wealthy investors.

Meanwhile, he's led an all-out assault on Medicaid, SNAP, and other programs that help the poor.

Reverse Robin Hood.
