A little while ago, my parents' cat Bridget went missing. As the weeks dragged on, they became extremely worried. My dad devised a way to distract himself: he began to paint Bridget's adventures, imagining her travelling through time and popping up in some of art and music's most iconic scenes.

Good to see, but the fact that Schumer is so far taking the same directionless approach to the debt limit as he did to the CR suggest that jawboning won’t work. Senate Dems have to want to change tack. newrepublic.com/article/1935...

“One of the hardest things for retention is when Military Spouses can’t find work.” - Sen. Ruben Gallego Elon Musk and the DOGE boys don’t get it. Cutting remote jobs for spouses and disabled Vets isn’t just cruel—it weakens our force. You can’t recruit and retain when you gut the support system.

You ever notice how the hard right in the GOP has no hesitation about threatening elected officials they see as weak or ineffective with being primaried but when someone suggests that is how to deal with feckless Dems the response is "No, you'll weaken the party!" The reality is the opposite.
