America, while you sleep this is happening…
It's midnight in Washington, and in case you're catching up...

So far tonight, Republicans have blocked amendments that would:

– Remove tariffs hurting families
– Protect disaster response and recovery
- Secure Social Security benefits
- Preserve federal lands

Everyone wants there to be a grand scheme behind all of this but the terrible truth is that extremely stupid people are in charge and they have a fanatical devotion to wrong, childlike concepts of society and economics cooked up by right wing radio hosts in order to sell tainted dietary supplements

Just found out our volunteer firefighters aren't given the same ACC coverage as paid firefighters!! 🤯

Apparently ACC considers volunteer firefighting a "leisure activity" and so doesn't extend coverage to occupational diseases such as cancer or mental trauma.

Quote of the day: "If only these [congressional] Republicans were lefty Democrats, they’d have been crushed immediately. But we have [Democratic] leaders who are less threatened by Trump succeeding than a legit Dem movement succeeding."

Senate Dems are now split on the CR?? Why? Because they can’t get their messaging out without looking as if they caused a shutdown? This is why we lost in 2024! Get it together Dems!

A new requirement forces grant applicants for the National Endowment for the Arts to pledge that they won't promote "gender ideology". This violates the First Amendment.

We'll see the Trump Administration in court.

The lawsuit seeks to block a new rule that requires groups applying for grants from the National Endowment for the Arts to agree not to promote “gender ideology.”

Yes, @democrats.org why aren’t you doing this?
I don't think the Dems can stop the firings. But why aren't they proposing legislation that assures those that took the buyout get paid , and that all that are fired, get at least a year severance and health benefits? And any one with a health condition is covered the entire time they are sick?
