Agree. I don’t think it’s trolling him at this point to say he needs to step down for his own and the country’s sakes.

One of the crits I’ve been hearing from centrists the past 24 hours is that here goes the left again imposing a purity test over what the Senate Dems did. Then they tut-tut about a circular firing squad, blah blah blah. Well, Mayor/Secretary Pete is no leftist and yet he gets it. This isn’t hard.
Agree with Mayor Pete.......

Someone acting presidential around our veterans. Almost forgot what that looks like.
Ahead of Veterans Day, I was honored to welcome a flight of veterans and their families as they arrived in DC.

Lots of grit shown to win against Green Bay on a chilly night at Lambeau. But Nick, we gotta talk about that 4th down play call. @philadelphiaeagles.bsky.social

Crosstraining day for me. I got on the bike trainer to do some recovery after yesterday’s 5K race. As an added benefit this type of XT keeps me sharp for summer triathlon time. #runsky #bikesky #trisky

@indivisible.org after yesterday’s Democratic surrender debacle, is coming out swinging, and I’m here for it. indivisible.actionkit.com/mailings/vie...
Democratic leaders failed us again. Time to get some new leaders.

Dems backed Trump into a corner where he’s advocating for starving Americans and hemorrhaging support. If they vote to let him off the hook in exchange for nothing it’s a cataclysmic failure. I know people are in pain but insulating Republicans from political consequences is not the answer.

Early returns here on BlueSky regarding the Senate Democrats’ deal around the shutdown are, to put it politely, not positive. But I’m trying to withhold judgement until I see some hard news and details. If it’s as bad as portrayed you better believe I will have something to say to my senators.

Solid #5k result today. Just missed breaking 25. This after running 28 just over a month ago. I’m on the right track with one more fall race to run on 11/22. #runsky

Winning bigly at something…
Records Donald Trump has broken:
- Only president impeached twice
- Worst year for layoffs since 2009
- Longest government shutdown in history

Call it the Trump effect, I guess.

I’m a longtime SBUX patron. The baristas at our local shop greet me by first name and I always tip well. But sometimes you have be ready to stand up for what’s right. Also, we have lots of great local coffee shops. Good time to visit them and help out small businesses while sticking up for workers.
Starbucks baristas have done everything right — organized, bargained, and stood together.

But the CEO still refuses to offer a fair contract or end union busting.

If baristas go on ULP strike, our response is simply DON’T BUY STARBUCKS.
