I try not to be a doomer and this is not meant to be doomer posting but the fact that this sort of thing continues unabated, they're set to get a surge of cash and our representatives cant/won't dont anything about it is bleak. And the best case scenario is 14 months out. Doesn't solve anything now.

After yesterday’s surrender, we’re launching the largest Democratic primary program that we’ve ever run.

We will not back any Senate primary candidate unless they call for Schumer to step down as Minority Leader.

If you’re as pissed as we are, join this campaign to rebuild the Democratic Party. 👇
Democratic leaders have failed us again. It's time to get new leaders.
After yet another capitulation by Chuck Schumer and Senate Democrats, it's clear we need new leadership capable of mounting a serious opposition to Trump's authoritarian regime. We're launching our la...

So yesterday I had a minor fall while hiking, and ended up bruising both my palms, knee and ankle. Falling in your 20s vs 30s is night and day. I'm hobbled now.

Anyways here's Nicolas Fischer climbing walls like nothing.

anyway, I just want there to be a thing in the constitution where you can have a vote to make a senator poor for life

reprehensible to me that regular citizens putting their bodies on the line to protest ICE abductions are showing more courage every day than our elected officials.

Any democratic senator not calling for Schumer to step down is complicit. And we will replace them all with people willing to fight
Democrats seem to think the pivoting to the center makes them most electable but all it does it piss *everyone* off.

Having beliefs/a backbone and being authentic is the best way to win elections. People are fucking sick of croneyism and corporate suck ups and that is why Zohran cruised to victory

Could he just keep it shut permanently? Well, then he personally takes ownership of the shutdown, and a vote for Johnson’s removal and replacement with a new Speaker does not require House to be in session.

Solar’s price drop is astonishing: panels are now 98% cheaper than when I first analyzed them in 2004.

Today, building a fence with solar can be cheaper than using wood.

Actually, it did, you feckless idiot.

Ask the fans at the Lions-Commanders game.

Ask the Mississippi voters who flipped two state Senate seats to Democrats.

Ask Trump himself, who was begging Senate Republicans to end the filibuster to pass, basically, this bill.

I think a lot of the anger this morning stems from a feeling that we did our part, but they did not do theirs. This is an oversimplification, but my dudes, no wonder people are like, “OK, let’s try the democratic socialist, then.”

What makes this more frustrating is that Dems were winning.

They had public opinion

They had base enthusiasm

They had Trump making tactical mistakes every day

And they lose
This is why this surrender isn't just about this narrow issue but is rather the whole constitutional ballgame:

Democrats are affirmatively signaling they do not want political power at the same time Trump is transitioning the political system into an autocratic one wherein they're denied it forever
Not that he didn’t already know, but now Trump knows for sure he can roll the Dems every time and there’s no need to negotiate for anything

The arrogance of a Senator who is not even running again to take the lead in undermining the Caucus and the voters.
Shaheen: So let me be clear. No one in the senate chamber wants to extend the ACA tax credits more than I do.
