1. Far as I can see, AOC and Jasmine Crockett

are doing all the heavy lifting!!!!!

And Bernie.

13. There are a few others. A disgustingly and depressingly

SMALL number of other elected Dems actually doing the kind of fight we want and expect ALL elected Democrats to do.

NOT kowtowning and appeasing Moses Johnson or tRump or ANY other fucking republicon billionaire corporate scum.

2. Isn't it telling that members of the party of responsibility

Never take responsibility for anything except good things they had nothing to do with enacting.

Mr Speaker, there is a Mr Jesus Christ here wanting to speak with you. He doesn’t have an appointment but he says it’s about time you two had a Chat about Christianity.

4. Amen!

5. Praised be!

3. We need to get rid of Schumer & put AOC in his place.

Then the people might actually have a chance.

7. Schumer's not up for reelection until 2028.

[TBF]

15. That's depressing. nt

16. Maybe he'll retire

He’ll 78 in 28 and another 6 year term will bring him to 84. So the question is will he hold himself to the same standard he held President Biden?

[Celerity]

11. yes!

3/ The point of this to temporarily confuse the issue so that Senate Ds can say they vote for their version while allowing the GOP version to pass. The critical point is that it's handing the GOP the 60 vote threshold for nothing.

9. Lol. Love her!

10. What the GOP wants to fund is no longer recognizable as the US Government

Therefore, it should NOT be funded at all.

Shut it down and find out what they did with the real one.

[JoseBalow]

12. What does it say?

[Figarosmom]

14. Didnt musk already shut down most

Of what is included in a shut- down? So what difference would it make?
