So @schumer.senate.gov really thinks we don’t understand that he orchestrated this by getting senators not up for re-election to vote yes?

Even if the government opened back up tonight, I guarantee you the Republicans will not fund SNAP, pay out any of the backpay to the furloughed workers, rehire anyone who was fired, or hold a vote on the ACA subsidies
This whole thing is pointless

I notice the Dems who are caving were also the ones who kept voting for Trump nominees.
Some of these folks have got a serious track record of swallowing empty promises with a smile and it’s a problem.

Does anybody else think that the way we are all organizing to feed each other right now is laying the groundwork for massive labor strikes?
This is another backlash effect the regime did not anticipate. We are building support systems and reconnecting as communities.

The Dems who are caving are doing so not because their base wants them to, not because the voters want them to, and not because SNAP recipients want them to. They are caving because their DONORS want them to. And that’s really all that ever matters to the establishment.

I don’t care if Schumer voted no. If he’s unable to wrangle the caucus, he’s not an effective leader. I’ll continue to push for the caucus to elect a new one.

Please remember, we all have our small measures of power that we loan to our elected reps who govern on our behalf and in our best interest.
Senate Dems have shown they cannot be trusted with that power. They do not represent us, they represent billionaires. So we take our power back.

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.

When I say the MAGA movement is post-truth, this is the sort of thing I mean. Push blatant lies in advance of an event, see overwhelming evidence that the lies were false, know that others saw it too, but plow ahead with the same lies, opposed to the notion that living in factual reality matters.
Mike Johnson calls No Kings the "Hate America Rally" and claims "it was funded by George Soros and co-sponsored by the Communist Party and many other nefarious groups"

Just to be clear, #SCOTUS has done nothing to indicate any interest in this case besides calling for a response—something that a *single* justice can request, and that is *not* remotely predictive of a cert. grant.
Everything else is standard practice for *all* cases filed in the Supreme Court.

Here’s the original clip of Ronald Reagan from April 25, 1987, where he delivered a complete and total rebuke against tariffs. Trump's calling Reagan’s words here “FAKE” and “fraudulent.” They’re 100% real. And the original clip is actually far worse for Trump, as much is left out of the ad:
