Cool so what happens if GOP attach a national abortion ban to a CR? You'll vote for that too?

My YES vote is *not* an endorsement of this deeply flawed CR.
My YES vote is 💯 about refusing to shut our government down.
I refuse to punish working families and plunge millions of Americans into chaos.
I will never, ever, ever, ever, ever vote to shut our government down.

Columbia grad student with a green card and a pregnant US citizen wife, abducted by ICE because of his political organizing, and now his lawyers can't find him.
Hey, @schumer.senate.gov. This is your constituent. Bring him back home.

UPDATE—Mahmoud's attorney says they do NOT know where he is.
They were first told he was sent to an ICE facility in Elizabeth, NJ. But when his 8-month-pregnant wife tried to visit him, she was told he's not there.
They've received reports he may be sent as far away as Louisiana.

Some Democratic member of Congress should propose a bill saying that a POTUS may golf at government expense no more than, say, once every 14 days, and must reimburse the Treasury for anything beyond that.
A couple of golf outings could pay for over 300 federal jobs for an entire year.
So…..fraud and waste? Eh?!?!

While the State Department CAN revoke *visas* with very little legal process involved, stripping someone of a green card is done by DHS (not the State Department) and requires filing formal charges alleging a violation of immigration law and a removal hearing in front of an immigration judge.

So, wait, the plan is for Trump to crash the markets, destroy people's savings, push up prices with tariffs, crush economic growth, and then gut Medicaid, Medicare and Social Security? While firing tens of thousands of federal workers? The concept of a plan is a depression?

Folks are frustrated with Dems in Congress right now.
Here’s my solution - get the hell out of DC and hold some hearings.
I love town halls, but we need to focus on people right now. Have folks come testify about how these cuts are affecting them.
Get local media there.
Make it real.

First, they said postponed; now the meeting is canceled. That means no flu shots next year.
“'It’s a six-month production cycle,' Dr. Offit said. 'So one can only assume that we’re not picking flu strains this year.'"
Fundamentally, that's a form of mass murder.

Research on psychological factors that correlate to political activation finds people high in openness to new experiences, high in conscientiousness, and low in agreeableness more likely to engage in boycotts and buycotts.

If the Dems have sense, they need to normalise the phrase “Trump Tax”.
Eggs, coffee, gas - all going up because of the Trump Tax.
If you’re paying more for something, it’s probably because of the Trump Tax.

What is hurting men, especially white men, is being brought up to believe you're born smarter and better. And then discovering that's not true. And flipping out and/or checking out, instead of welcoming the opportunity to have to prove yourself like women have to.
