This seems like the most straightforward and also basically accurate message.
instead of saying this was good strategy, maybe senate dems should say: "the republicans were going to kill people by starving them to death, and because we aren't monsters, we decided to let this fight go. We'll keep fighting. Stop electing monsters."

Senators on the brink of retirement who lived full, wealthy lives and never feared the loss of their own healthcare voting for their constituents to die from their inability to afford the same is treasonous

My family has been without half our income for 40 days. It has been.. very hard.

We are willing to feel that pain so people can have health care next year, or to undo these illegal recissions.

We are not willing to have been put through this for NOTHING.

"The ‘60 Minutes’ interview with Trump showcased everything that is wrong with US political interviews in general. The deferential tone. The lack of preparation. The failure to ask follow-up questions or dig deep into answers. The inability (unwillingness?) to fact-check in real time."

Letting 42 million Americans go without food this weekend—half of whom are children—is WRONG and a CHOICE.

The funds are there, but the White House is trying to leverage hungry kids for a political agenda. Mr. President, American lives are not a political game, and we are not here to play.

The FIRST time ever in U.S. History SNAP benefits are not going to be paid, and it's all on Donald Trump. He can TAKE all the CREDIT for this! 42M Americans will starve including me, who has been a SNAP recipient since 2008. 25 AGs are FIGHTING for us, we have to have faith & hope.

Release the Epstein files.
Trump in July, on the WH $250MM ballroom project:

“It won’t interfere with the current building.... It’ll be near it but not touching it — and pays total respect to the existing building, which I’m the biggest fan of."

Brian Schatz: "This is not about money. There is enough money to bail out Argentina with $20b. There is enough money to purchase a brand new aircraft for $173m for Noem. There is enough money to renovate the WH ballroom. What there isn't enough money for under this Republican government is you."

Oh you're trying to say the cost of living is skyrocketing?

Donald Trump can't hear you over the sound of bulldozers demolishing a wing of the White House to build a new grand ballroom.

This iconic photo…

On the night he made history, Obama reached for his mother-in-law’s hand.

Michelle later wrote in Becoming that her mom felt his loneliness that night. His father gone since he was 2, his mother and grandmother both passed. Marian said she could feel the “gravity of the passage”

BREAKING: Pope Leo just met with American migrants advocating for those living in fear of deportation.

He said to them — and to Trump’s America:

“The Church cannot stay silent before injustice. You stand with me. And I stand with you.”

Good morning.

The government is shut down because Trump wants to act like a king and steal from you.

Democrats have no obligation to support a budget that funds the destruction of our democracy - and DOUBLES health premiums to fund a tax cut for billionaires.
