Is Schumer still the minority leader? Is Durbin still the whip? Is Cortes-Masto still a vice chair? Good Democrats -- rank and file, those committed to restoring party --must tell Act Blue and every candidate with hands out for the coming midterms -- that there's no cash coming without new leaders.

Bluesky suspended Sarah Kendzior today for no reason whatsoever. She just shared excerpts of her articles, which were as always incisive and not offensive at all. Hey @pfrazee.com this is super not OK. I know her- we've interacted a fair bit via chats and her work is essential.

If Evidence Based Medicine has a poster child, it's the 2015 Antimicrobial Resistance and Infection Control study claiming N95s interfere with breathing in pregnant women.
Here's their setup, which they described as "simulating the actual wearing of an N95 respirator".
The RCT "gold standard" 🤣

They caved in March so they could get a better deal now. They’re caving now so they can get a better deal in some indeterminate future. The better deal is always just beyond their reach, but continuing to cave will get them there. And if you don’t agree with that, you don’t understand Politics,

The thing about trying to frame LGBTQ discrimination as "religious freedom" is that we have never granted any religion the freedom to harm or control others. That is where freedom stops. You can *believe* all you want that a woman marrying her girlfriend is evil, but belief is for you, not others.

Saw a quote saying why waste resources trying to replace dems rather than gain seats. That's a lack mindset. An abundant mindset says that we can do both. It's not either or. And if those seats are so solid blue, then it doesn't matter who the dem candidate is in the general then does it?

When @democrats.senate.gov ask "why do all of these young Democrats keep saying that we're either spineless or stupid?" It's because you keep doing things, both individually and as a party, that can only be explained by being utterly spineless or stupid (or, realistically, both).
Shaheen on Fox & Friends: "I believe there are number of Republicans who are gonna join us in trying to address healthcare costs ... we are gonna be able to continue to right about healthcare because we're gonna have a vote in December."

We had all the momentum
•The American people were blaming Republicans
•A landslide Democratic victory
•Courts ordering Trump to fund SNAP benefits
Yet you couldn't convince your caucus to fight for us
It's the final straw that breaks the back of your tenure as leader, Senator
Time to step down

Democrats have been fighting for months to address America's healthcare crisis
For the millions who will lose coverage
For people with cancer who won't get the care they need
For working families who can't afford to pay $25K more a year for healthcare
We will keep fighting

Never forget that the airlines were instrumental in reducing the Covid isolation requirements and paid time off.
Why? It was hurting their profits.
They were about to lose money again due to the shutdown… so the Dems caved.
Medicaid & ACA will be gone to keep airlines happy.
Profit over people.

The coordinated nature of this—none are facing voters in 2026—means that either Schumer approved it or failed in his job as Senate Majority Leader to stop it.
Dems voting "no" get zero credit until they demand a change in leadership. Schumer out as Leader, Durbin out as Whip.
