6/6. WordleBot hit me with the “That was a valid guess, but it’s unlikely to be a solution based on what I’ve learned about playing Wordle. 0 skill.” I HATE that response! Either it’s a word and it’s a valid guess, or it isn’t and you shouldn’t let me guess it. (It was a perfectly appropriate word…)

How well did they work with you when they were dismantling USAID, eliminating NSF grants, firing embassy staff? When they let Trump kill civilians in international waters? Put troops in US cities? How about when they were encouraging their constituents to storm the Capitol?

If he thinks standing up to him doesn’t work, what does he think rolling over will accomplish? Such a stupid move. People respect someone who stands up for their values. They are willing to sacrifice for principles. They don’t like performance, when politicians F around with our lives then fold.

@kaine.senate.gov No one is fighting for them, which you proved last night. Forcing a losing vote helps no one. The voters were on Dems’ side in the shutdown and you gave in anyway. People are willing to sacrifice to win, not suffer for 40 days for nothing.

Jesus Christ, @senangusking.bsky.social. If you think standing up to him doesn’t work, wait until you see what rolling over does. WTF.

Bipartisanship is dead and they don’t get it. The GOP is a criminal organization and they need to be opposed, not bargained with. Every compromise you make gives Trump more power. They’d try to reach compromise with a pack of hyenas. It’s like trying to meet your opponent halfway in a tug of war.

I’ve respected and supported King for a long time. Unfortunately I don’t think he understands the world we are currently living in. He’s isn’t up for it.

Well, I’ll definitely be protesting. Canvassing and voting will be a definite yes, but probably not for anyone who is there now.

@shaheen.senate.gov The country will continue to swirl around the toilet, and Americans will remember that a dysfunctional government fucked them over for 5 weeks for nothing, and no one stood up for them in the end. More “both sides” resentment and justified feelings that neither party does shit.
