McGovern: Seriously, we were worried. We actually started handing out missing person posters. Nobody has seen you for eight weeks. But, hey, I'm glad that you are ok. I'm glad you survived your nice, two-month paid vacation

81 years ago, FDR proposed a second Bill of Rights to guarantee every American the right to employment, healthcare, education, housing, and a living income. His words are as relevant now as they were then. Watch.
WATCH — @repstevenhorsford.bsky.social : “My amendment would redirect that $40 BILLION from Argentina to fund the ACA subsidies for two years… a far better use of taxpayer dollars.”
Why do we have money for Argentina while our own people lose their health care? How does this make us great?
Schumer and the gang of 8 think that we will forget what they did to us.
They think we will just move on to the next onslaught of our rights and freedoms, the next headline, the next abuse.
We won't.
If you want to let these traitors know, the number for the Senate switchboard is 202-224-3121.
"[Schumer] voted against the deal, but who are we kidding ... Either he was tacitly okay with it or he was too weak to stop 17% of his caucus from cutting a deal with Republican leadership and the Trump White House. If I had to place a bet, it would be on the former." — @danpfeiffer.bsky.social
Ahead of Veterans Day, I was honored to welcome a flight of veterans and their families as they arrived in DC.
Just sent this fax to Chuck Schumer, and Kristen Gillibrand is up next. Free and easy, link below, and feel free to steal this script!
Senator Chuck Schumer of New York, the Democratic leader, just emerged from the closed-door meeting and said: “I’m voting no.”
Asked to explain his position, Schumer tersely said the American people “need healthcare.”
The NYT
Flood the phones:
(202) 224-3121
Tell Chuck Schumer to grow a spine and hold the line…
There should be no deal that leaves working families behind.
How long will we be hijacked by centrists, cowards and Chuck Schumer?
Emergency Chuck Schumer call. Definitely a Hail Mary but holy shit we have to try anything right now. 202-224-6542
AOC should announce she's primarying Chuck Schumer ASAP. This is the time. Imagine the donations. I'd give them to her.
Breaking News: The Senate has enough votes to reach a minibus deal. A CR through January 30th.
FORTY days for absolutely nothing, but capitulation from Democrats, as usual.
Your services are no longer needed, Chuck Schumer.
Please close the door on your way out.
There will be ZERO tolerance for Chuck Schumer as Leader if this Democratic Senate cave takes place.
He might as well just step down immediately.
Caving on a deal that doesn’t fix health care is, and always has been, a giant betrayal of the American people.
Hold the line. Save health care. I’m a NO on anything that doesn’t extend ACA subsidies.
Donnie dipshit between the announcers in the Fox booth on November 9, record 40th day of the GOP shutdown
Government is shut down. Chaos in airports. 42 million going hungry. 24 million face skyrocketing healthcare costs. Economy in turmoil. And the president of the United States is in the Fox broadcast booth calling plays for a football game.
no one has ever been better than chuck schumer at snatching defeat from the jaws of victory
DO NOT CAVE!
Casual reminder that the myth of “pulling yourself up by your bootstraps” is a cruel hoax designed to convince poor people from all walks of life that the injustices they face are a result of their own actions, rather than an oppressive system rigged against them.
We’re 36 days into the longest shutdown in American history.
All it would take to end this shutdown is for Republicans to agree to extend ACA tax credits, something that would directly help millions of Americans.
It’s way past time to get to the negotiating table and end this.
A 45 year-old married couple with one child living in Helena Montana and earning $70,000 a year is about to see their ACA premium rise from $263 a month to $515 a month.
A damn daycare. This is sick. What are we doing?
Zohran Mamdani ran on freezing the rent in NYC.
Abigail Spanberger ran on supporting fired federal workers and lowering the cost of living in VA.
Mikie Sherrill ran on lowering utility bills in NJ.
Ensuring people can afford to live a decent life is the path forward.
Mr. "I Don't Take Responsibility At All" thinks the MASSIVE BLUE WAVE was because he wasn't on the ballot, not
a Major Referendum on his 2nd Term.
Turns out folks prefer feeding the hungry over building expen$ive, tacky Ballrooms.
Looking forward to the midterms... 🌊
#AccountabilityIsComing
For the folks just tuning in, it's been like this the entire time.

The lesson of history is that tyrants cannot be appeased.
Appeasement only feeds their insatiable hunger for power.
Tyrants prey on people who feel unsafe and vulnerable.
But without mass submission, a tyrant is powerless.
Remember this.
Very good news!
