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)

SNAP exists because politicians take campaign contributions from large corporations in exchange for letting those corporations pay a poverty wage so low that it must be subsidized with taxpayer money, paid by middle class workers barely getting by—all so 700 billionaires can have a few extra billion

This is not a Kavanaugh stop. This is a Roberts murder.
Trump: "I don't think we're necessarily going to ask for a declaration of war, I think we're just gonna kill people that are bringing drugs into our country. We're going to kill them. They're going to be, like dead."

It’s important to flood social media and news channels with news about how ICE lies, so that potential jurors see it.

If the government shuts down, it's because Republicans chose to shut it down rather than negotiate a bipartisan budget that serves the American people.

Your local library is full of media that the president hates but can't use his regulatory power to get rid of.

We have a bit of a natural experiment here. Compare the tone, quantity and duration of Charlie Kirk coverage with that of the two Dem lawmakers gunned down in their homes in Minnesota 6 months ago. May be revealing.

I think it’s worth noting this piece generated the most unsubscribes I’ve seen in a while, and the newsletter version had the lowest open rate in many months. These horrors persist in part because too many people go to great pains to avoid them.

I hear a lot of democratic members of congress say “republicans privately tell me they hate this.”

Start naming names.

She never disclosed this income on federal ethics forms.

The GOP’s reconciliation bill is one of the worst environmental bills I’ve ever seen.

It guts public input, silences tribal and community voices, slashes environmental protections, and hands sacred and public lands to the lowest bidder with no accountability.

Donald Trump was handed an economy with rising wages, increased manufacturing, plentiful jobs, and falling inflation.

Within 100 days, he has managed to put us on the course toward a recession.
