Since the Democrats worked extra hard to hide who actually supported this, I think the No Kings/Resistance position should be to primary every Democrat unless they publicly call for Schumer's ouster this week

Either they go into total rebellion mode, which they won't, or the people will

I've called @schumer.senate.gov @kirstengillibrand.bsky.social @duckworth.senate.gov and @durbin.senate.gov.

Call your senator now and tell them to HOLD THE LINE!

Sounds like the squishes in the senate caucus are ready to pull the plug with no ACA changes. This is real. If you want to register your opinion you shld call yr senator in the next hour. They not only want to reopen w/nothing. They want cover from their colleagues who still want to hold out.

Just called @durbin.senate.gov and he has voicemail turned off. Infuriating.

Portland OR friends: any ideas here?

Also @weratedogs.com @darthbluesky.bsky.social help needed here pls.
A family member in Portland Oregon died unexpectedly and left behind a 2 year old husky who is currently on a 5 day hold in a shelter while I try to figure out a way to get her to me here in Portland Maine so that I can adopt her...without it costing All the Money.

Anyone have any ideas?

Trying to strong-arm a Nobel Peace Prize is an approach, I guess.
Johnson: "Together with my friend Speaker Ohana of the Israeli Knesset we're going to rally speakers and presidents of parliaments around the world so we will jointly nominate President Donald J Trump for next year's Nobel Prize. No one has ever deserved that prize more & that is an objective fact."

Pretty accurate. I'd probably draw a line between Seattle/Portland Northwest and Salem/Eugene Northwest though. That hippie-libertarian thread through the Willamette Valley is really its own thing.
This is the most accurate depiction of the Midwest to date. Wichita has always felt like the last Midwest city while also being the first plains city.
