I’ve auditions few comments and I’ll say it again here:

D.A.C.O.: Democrats Always Chicken Out. Sadly. They were all holding the line, showing unity and strength. It seemed so unlike them and went on for so long that I started to hope.

BREAKING: The Supreme Court denied an attempt to challenge Obergefell v. Hodges, the case affirming marriage equality nationwide.

Our freedom to marry remains the law of the land.

This "deal" is SO much worse than people understand because now Republicans know that Dems will cave, even when they have a Royal Flush in their hand.

Rs will use shutdowns to get everything they want. And give up nothing in return.

Well done, #SelloutCaucus.

I'd like for someone in the dem caucus to tell us which senators were real no votes and which ones voted no because they were allowed to.

Ben works for my current company in the IT department. That’s how we met. He’s always been kind, helpful and oh, so patient whenever we needed his help with our laptops. He’s the best kind of human. Health insurance companies shouldn’t be in the business of denying life-saving care.

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 84th day out of the last 96.

12 days of work in over 3 months.

With full pay and benefits.

The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.

It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

I haven’t seen anyone talk about how Jane Doe - an Epstein survivor - just sued the Bank of New York Mellon for funding Epstein and failing to file a Suspicious Activity Report. A Mellon heir is the one who gave $130M to pay the troops. Seems bribey to me.

Just to be clear: Brian Kilmeade *did not* endorse euthanizing homeless people. He advocated MURDERING over 700,000 of them.

And on a network that has been *beside itself* over the murder of just one man this week.

My friend’s life hangs on cancer research.

Now SCOTUS handed Trump the knife to slash it.

This isn’t policy—it’s a death sentence. Science saves lives, but only if democracy survives.
