Does anyone remember who said, "When did it become patriotic to go broke?" Maybe in the 90s? I'm hoping it was a Republican. It seems like this is what the GOP is suggesting as "temporary pain."

At today's #TeslaTakedown, I stood next to a man holding a homemade "DUMP DOGE" sign. A car stopped in front of us, waiting at the red light. The passenger window rolled down, a young woman stuck her head out and yelled at him, "You can't even spell DODGE right, so f--- you!" Bless her ❤️!

@schumer.senate.gov Why are you voting for cloture and the Rep CR instead of whipping votes for the 30-day CR? You are letting Republicans suffer no consequences for their actions. If you don't have the courage to lead against authoritarianism then step aside and let @murray.senate.gov do it.

@murray.senate.gov Why is @schumer.senate.gov caving in to authoritarianism instead of whipping the votes needed for your 30 day CR?! He's supposed to LEAD the Democratic party, not DESTROY it!
