This is a bad deal, and the old way of doing things is clearly not working.

We need new leaders in the Senate.

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.

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

Tonight’s Senate vote on the federal government shutdown should have been a time for strength.

Instead we saw capitulation and a betrayal of working Americans.

The American people need more from their leaders.

80% of Democratic voters want a new leader in the Senate.

Does that matter at all to Democratic senators?

Pritzker: "Imagine it. Children who woke up that morning, expectant with joy & excitement to put on their costumes & celebrate with their neighbors in what they thought was a safe place at their homes. Armed, masked agents, terrorizing innocent people, especially children, is unconscionable."

The fact that Johnson won't call the House into session (now possibly not until next year) is about the Epstein Files, for sure.

But it's also about handing over complete control of this country to one man. It's about no checks and balances.

It's about Authoritarianism.
See what they are doing.

Fentanyl and coke are the new “weapons of mass destruction” lie. It’s Iraq all over again, folks. It’s always about controlling the oil.

Last week we heard that Indiana Rs didn’t have the votes in the State Legislature to redistrict.

Now we hear that Gov. Braun is calling a special redistricting session anyway.

That means Braun is hoping intense pressure will work.

Keep pressuring back, Indiana.

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 85th day out of the last 97.

12 days of work in over 3 months.

With full pay and benefits.

The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.

It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

If a temporary resident of the White House can totally demolish the East Wing to build a gaudy ballroom, without any authority, approval, or regulation, he can tear down the rest of the White House to build a Walmart. That this destruction is allowed underscores how off the rails our country is now.

Kim Davis is entitled to freedom of speech, as are we all. However, her use of a public office to deliberately hurt people by robbing them of fundamental rights has nothing to do with freedom of speech. She is a symbol of the evil of American radical right-wing christianity.

We warned folks about Fetterman too, but they didn’t want to hear it.

Apparently, a lot has happened, but not much has changed.
