The real choice Democrats face is not between a continuing resolution that allows the government to function normally or a government shutdown.
Under the Trump regime, the government is not functioning normally. It is already shutting down.
Why vote to legitimize Trump's coup?

All I can think…
SCOTUS being asked to prevent national injunctions from Article 3 constitutional courts so WH can actively prepare for unconstitutional actions eg limiting 14A birthright citizenship.
Afterward, their cabinet could be taken on a ride in a late model SUV through industrial sections of Baltimore.

Tell them to vote NO on Cloture and NO on CR. Vote is pushed to after 1:15ish for now. Situation is fluid.
The only public YES votes are Schumer and Fetterman.
They need 7-8 total. KEEP CALLING.
Call retiring Senators too!
Since the 70s Congress, mostly @democrats.org have expanded their power at the expense of president.
As a result, @democrats.org have mortgaged the future of younger generations.
The status quo has failed.
Musk & Trump 🩷 their 💵
You 🤮 your 💵 that you need to pay your bank back.
You’re a masochistic dummy
All because you 🤮 your 💵
falls flat!
trump and musk DON’T CARE ABOUT COURT RULINGS!!
And now trump has announced intention to fire 18K more! They WILL continue but with the funding WE give them to do it!
No, @senatedemocrats.bsky.social !!
I wrote and I called the “obeying in advance” Senators.

Vote "No" on cloture and "No" on the CR. Fight for the US and against the Neo-Reactionary (NRx) authoritarian regime of Musk/Trump.
The bottom line is that our entire two-party political system is a sham!
We’ve seen this before in our history. They are intentionally shoving us into an second Great Depression
He is behaving as a #Quisling at the exact moment when he should be digging in his heels as a patriot!
The government stopped functioning normally on January 6. Dems pretending that they can behave normally and everything will return to normal are delusional. They need to stop with the whataboutisms.
Read my analysis here...
In the end? I still say SHUT IT DOWN! (Read why...)

If the shutdown is allowed to happen WHAT IS THE GUARANTEE THESE FUCKERS WILL OPEN IT AGAIN?

JK, I wouldn't wish that on you. 🫶
Nevertheless, I'm here now and learn something everyday.
Thank you.
They always give concessions and let Republicans run ruff shot.
Not today
Leadership my ass.
Say it louder!
If the GOP’s bill passes, the GOP will be blamed for the damage - except of course for the ones who blame the Dems for allowing the bill to pass.
Either way, you can claim "the other way would have been worse!"
Shutdowns are costly, but that's on a normal day.
Considering the federal government is currently a hostile place to work and has a yo yo workforce -- maybe it's better to just shut it 🤔 down and see what happens?
Do we even know how many jobs already gone
Trump has already been slicing and dicing these agencies.
Now, the same goes across the aisle...
Stay safe sane. ✌🏻❤️
Would you help me understand something?!
Schumer said that trump wants a shutdown. That if the government is shutdown he has greater control and the court system is less effective to counter this dismantling of gov't.
Does this have any basis in truth?!
Wake the fuck up , Chuck!
