Holy shit. A 50-year mortgage? LOLLLL.

Welcome to Trump's America, I guess.

Schumer needs to be put on an ice floe.

Pelosi knew when it was time to step down. Schumer should do the same.

Ask Mike Johnson why Trump gave a child trafficker a puppy.
"Maxwell has received custom meals personally delivered to her cell, after-hours time in a private exercise area, access to a service puppy, and private meetings with visitors arranged by the warden, complete with snacks. Visitors were allowed to bring computers..."

Democrats reveal whistleblower details of Ghislaine Maxwell prison ‘luxuries’
In a letter to the president, House Democrats say Maxwell’s treatment as she prepares a clemency request makes the convicted sex offender look like a “guest at a Trump hotel.”

Speaker Johnson has literally said he's "not promising anyone anything."

For once, I believe him.

They're hoping we'll forget their betrayal by the time they're up for reelection.

Spoiler alert: We won't.
I think that these 8 Senators are falling on the sword for Schumer and other Senators who wanted the shutdown to end. This allows the majority of Senators to save face; and only retiring or not up for reelection Senators take the heat.

It’s a ruse.

THIS.

I am *very* angry at Senate Dems right now—but the answer isn't to leave; it's to *change* the party from within.

We must vote for candidates who are willing to fight for *us.*

If we abandon the party, there will be nothing to stop MAGA fascism.
Hey, a lot of people are talking about changing affiliation from Democratic to Independent.

Let me tell you why you shouldn’t do that in Colorado.

One of the main ways to get a primary challenge candidate on a ballot is to caucus for your party. You need to be registered as a Dem to caucus.

The President wouldn't last five minutes as an air traffic controller, and after everything they've been through - and the way this administration has treated them from Day One - he has no business shitting on them now.

Trump's pardons of his January 6 unindicted co-conspirators is a recruiting call to interfere in upcoming elections!

Prediction:

PedoProtector Mike Johnson will continue to delay Adelita Grijalva's swearing in until at least the result of the Tennessee special election on December 2 is known.

He's hoping the Republican wins and negates Grijalva's "yes" vote on the #EpsteinFiles discharge petition.

I think Trump will try to impose price controls on grocery stores sometime in the next year.

And MAGA will lap it up.

Of course Trump's late-night pardon of dozens of criminal cronies just slips down the memory hole.

Five days.

That's how long hope lasted.

From Tuesday's election to last night's capitulation.

Five. Fucking. Days.

seems to me that those democrats inclined not to fight perceive themselves as living through a somewhat ordinary cycle of presidential overreach and backlash and not something much more significant and dangerous

Dems who capitulate rather than fighting must be primaried.

We cannot simply replace them with bomb-throwing firebrands who have no chance at winning national elections.

We must find political unicorns—actual humans with courage who appeal to a broad swath of the electorate.

Any Democrat who thinks everything is normal, and that "business as usual" is the way to operate in Congress, needs to retire and hand the reins to a generation who will fucking FIGHT.

Dear Dems: Fight or Fuck Off.

It's time to chuck Chuck and find a new leader in the Senate who's more concerned with the plight of the American people than furthering his own career and padding his retirement.
