So we asked all 40 Democratic senators who didn’t cave to Republicans if they still think Schumer is the right leader.
Here's what they said.

Furious Liberals Call for Schumer to Step Aside, Senate Dems Mostly Quiet

Nothing radicalizes people faster than an empty stomach. Republicans are playing with fire.
The USDA sent an email to grocery stores telling them they are prohibited from offering special discounts to customers affected by the SNAP funding lapse.
I'm aware of at least 2 stores that had offered struggling customers a discount, then withdrew it after receiving this email

A New Hope was an allegory for the Vietnam War from the point of view of the Vietcong, so it already was happening in real life.
Who could ever have imagined when I played a fictional rebel who joined the Resistance to oppose a criminal Authoritarian & wannabe King, it would be happening in real-life?

"Defect, G.I. It is a very good idea to leave a sinking ship."
For my latest, I talked with counter-recruiter Rory Fanning about how we should communicate with National Guard troops deployed in US cities, and how we might counter ICE's current recruiting blitz.
What Do We Say When the Soldiers Come?
"There is no honor in this mission," says counter-recruiter Rory Fanning.

-strip healthcare away from 17 million Americans
-take food assistance away from 3 million Americans
-eliminate school meal access for 18+ million kids
-send energy costs soaring
-add $3.3 trillion to national debt
-raise health care premiums for seniors
