I’m certainly not taking Stefanik’s side here because she’s no victim, but this pretty much does sum up the way Republican leadership treats Republican women.

Unilever/Magnum has been silencing Ben & Jerry’s when the brand has tried to speak out about social injustices & progressive values. It’s wrong.

John Fetterman is on with Katy Tur…promoting his new book…and defending his sorry-ass decision. I can think of a few people who have a place in mind where they’d like to shove that filthy hoodie.

Yeah, I'm sorry, but you do not keep the government shut for more than a month and then NOT get a deal on the main item you have been messaging on without completely shifting the blame dynamic.
Major concession from Democrats here is enhanced ACA funds aren’t extended. Preserving them was Dems’ central demand in this fight. They secured a promise of a vote (which Thune has been offering for weeks), but that could still fail. Even if it passes, Johnson has made no promise of a House vote.
Tentative Senate deal to end shutdown, multiple sources tell me & @frankthorp.bsky.social:
—CR through Jan 30
—Approps minibus
—Fully funds SNAP
—Reverses Trump’s shutdown RIFs
—Promise of Senate vote on ACA subsidies by Dec second week (details/outcome uncertain)
—Led by King/Shaheen/Hassan

If Chuck Schumer was a stronger leader, he would have been able to convince most of these senators to hold the line.

Shaheen: So let me be clear. No one in the senate chamber wants to extend the ACA tax credits more than I do.

I’m leaving this post up for transparency’s sake, but I just got some clarification on the federal RIF reinstatement/moratorium.
It only stops them from re-firing people until January of 2026 - I thought it was also a year.
So yeah, there’s not much of a win here. Apologies for the misread.

Honestly, this is likely as good of a deal as the Democrats are going to get.
Reinstates fired federal workers. Prevents admin from re-firing them. SNAP funding for a year, and an ACA vote in December.
Voters are already blaming the GOP for the ACA - make them vote against it.

A reminder - last March, republicans promised to restore $1.1B in funding to DC in exchange for funding the government, and Mike Johnson never took it up in the House.
