The 28-point peace plan for Ukraine is insulting, and is a giveaway for the invaders from Russia.

@parkroseperma.bsky.social Didn't know if you'd seen or already responded to the national ban on hemp-related products like CBD or gummies that was in section 781 of HR.5371, just signed into law.

@briantylercohen.bsky.social Could you look at the hemp-based product ban that was in the bill the Spineless 8 Democratic Senators allowed to get through as part of the bill they "negotiated" to pass? It's section 781 of HR.5371, if you're looking.

DSA stands in absolute opposition to the proposed deal to pass Trump's billionaire budget. Healthcare is a right, not a bargaining chip.

It's likely there was more going on behind the scenes than we could see. There is evidence to suggest that Schumer was behind this, even though he did not vote in favor of the Senate betrayal.

You are all a disgrace. You have made the shutdown meaningless, and you have only proven that Democrats aren't real fighters. You should resign, but of course you won't.

And there's the fucking list of cowardly turncoats that made a 7-week shutdown be all for nothing. These need to be primaried by real progressives.

@democrats.org Get with your people in the Senate. We're hearing rumors that they're about to cave in exchange for a worthless promise from the Republicans to hold a vote on the ACA subsidies in December. Not an actual extension; a VOTE! DO NOT CAVE.

@baldwin.senate.gov DO NOT CAVE. We are hearing that some Democrats are getting ready to throw away their leverage, AGAIN, in exchange for a "promise" from Republicans to hold a vote next month. Don't be one of them.

Remember, remember, the 5th of November...

...when the day dawned after a night of thrashing Republicans.

We're hitting the streets to fight fascism, see you out there! And please know that if you can't make it to a rally, or do it safely, we value your work to fight fascism nonetheless. We're in this together.

So... Republicans were totally fine giving big tax breaks to their wealthy friends, but have drawn the line at tax breaks for working families to afford health care.

By allowing for the dismantling of minority districts held by Democrats, a ruling against the VRA could give President Donald Trump and the GOP enough additional seats to lock in the party’s control of the House for a generation. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

The government has been shut down for 13 days now because Republicans refuse to work across the aisle to ensure healthcare for millions of Americans is accessible and affordable. This is not how government is supposed to work.
