If any senator objects, the bill passage could be delayed until Friday. But apparently zero Senators have objected to the scheduling motion on the hotline.

I got back to my office after the vote last night and recorded this. There's no way to sugarcoat what happened. And my fear is that Trump gets stronger, not weaker, because of this acquiescence. I'm angry - like you. But I choose to keep fighting.

In response to this claim that the "strategy didn't work."
The people were on our side. We were building momentum to help save our democracy. We could have won - the premium increase notices were just starting.
And giving in now will embolden him. Things will likely get worse.

okay, so, with Dems successfully keeping anyone up in 2026 for voting for this turd let's take a look at who's up in 2026 anyway:
1. Cory Booker - apparently involved behind the scenes, constantly looking for bipartisanship. I don't dislike him personally but he doesn't have what we need. Primary.

if the Democrats are willing to accept this deal, in particular, i don't think a single Senator should make it through their primary. this just makes health inequity worse and lets Trump send out checks with his name on them!
"A development that appeared to break the logjam: Republicans proposed that healthcare funding be provided directly to households rather than used to pay for a 1-year extension of ACA subsidies. That involves sending federal money into FSAs instead of insurance companies" www.wsj.com/politics/pol...
Republicans Pitch Alternative to ACA Extension to End Government Shutdown
A proposal by GOP senators to send money directly to consumers’ health accounts rather than to insurance companies showed signs of breaking a stalemate on negotiations.

So you should really watch this. Just 2 minutes. But a window into the truly radical nature of the people Trump is nominating.
When pressed today, the nominee to be Ambassador to South Africa refuses to oppose reinstituting laws to prevent black people from voting in America.

the idea that anything other than the most transient organizing is dangerous is corrosive to the type of civil society resistance which is necessary now but not occurring
What's the obsession w registration? Ppl have organized & protested w/o registration for centuries.
Why are so many ppl adamant that ppl must not only protest, but register in advance?
If you protest w/o registering, what do you lose out on?

Even ignoring how the Dixie Chicks and “freedom fries” were more than 20 years ago, how do these people look at themselves in the mirror with dignity. Is this really it for punditry now? Is it just “you started it” until the end of time, are you all just nine fucking years old now

this is more or less a conspiracy theory. it is parasite load and the fact that there are not websites anymore. there just more or less not any websites, and those that exist, exist solely to trick google into serving them to you.
I worked on search engine optimization back in the days when there were 10-20 search engines and then Google just wiped them all out by being so much better.
Is there some financial advantage to them for making search useless at this point?
