The coordinated nature of this—none are facing voters in 2026—means that either Schumer approved it or failed in his job as Senate Majority Leader to stop it.

Dems voting "no" get zero credit until they demand a change in leadership. Schumer out as Leader, Durbin out as Whip.
so currently defectors are:

Kaine (2030)
Shaheen (Retiring)
Hasan (2028)
Fetterman (2028)
Durbin (Retiring)
CCM (2028)
Rosen (2030)
King (2030)

As long as NYT is asking “Did women ruin the workplace” can they also ask:
•Did men ruin safe workplaces?
•Did men ruin domestic safety?
•Did men ruin public safety?
•Did men ruin global peace?
Or is a clear “YES” to all these questions just too difficult for fragile men to accept—so NYT avoids it?🤔

Do people not think that 1 in 8 people living in the wealthiest country in the history of the world needing assistance affording groceries is not indicative of a bigger problem? Do people not find that strange? Do people think 12.5% of the population deserve to go hungry?

We cannot be a meaningfully representative democracy until we replace the Senate & single-member districts as currently structured with actually representative & democratic institutions

Medicare for All would save $450B a year.

Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity.

Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall.

It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford.

It’s about priorities.

With SNAP expiring, at least one Calif community is responding not by helping people get food, but by threatening hungry people with arrest

This is what we mean when we say policing is a policy choice that creates crime

Here’s the math that proves it 🧵
California police boost patrols at grocery stores as millions set to lose SNAP benefits
Over 5.5 million Californians, including 2 million children, are set to lose their SNAP benefits this Saturday.

Amazon is helping fund a $300 million build of a ballroom for the White House.

Independent bookstores are donating to food banks and organizations that help with food insecurity.

They are not the same.

I'm no economist but the fact that more than 42 million Americans (1 in 8!) are on SNAP (i.e., food stamps) says that the federal minimum wage is way too low.

1) we’ve had the productive capacity to produce food for every living person on this planet

2) we have the logistics to deliver these to every person on this planet

3) we have ideologies and philosophies to know that’s good

That we don’t is a choice. And a moral failure.

No one should feel stigmatized for utilizing a food bank.
100% of the stigma belongs to the people who have created a world where food banks are a necessity.

it is not civil when an evil person says evil things in a calm tone of voice.

conversely, it is not uncivil when a good person uses curse words to denounce evil things at the top of their voice.

it is evil to pretend not to understand this.

In the 20 years following 9/11, the U.S. spent over $21 trillion on militarization.

Yesterday, the House passed an NDAA bringing us closer to a $1 trillion Pentagon budget.

For too long, hawks have used the tragedy of 9/11 to supercharge militarism at the cost of our needs and safety.

Enough.

This graph says it all. Induced demand is real, and the reverse is also true: if we don't expand highway capacity, people make choices other than sitting in worsening traffic jams. $10B for transit instead, please.

Protestors in Nepal overthrew the government in less than 48 hours due to corruption. They refused a curfew, spread protests across all cities, fought police in roaming street battles, burnt down politicians' houses, stole military weapons, stormed the parliament & burnt it, forced the PM to resign.
