@parkroseperma.bsky.social www.youtube.com/watch?v=A23n... The more I think about this, the less I'm buying it.

Damn, I love me some PopeHat. @emptywheel.bsky.social

Damn. "Disgusting coward" wasn't strong enough. @schumer.senate.gov You're a disgusting, cowardly QUISLING! (that's worse than being just Vichy...look it up).

I feel seen.

@emptywheel.bsky.social

@murray.senate.gov No on cloture? Or merely "no on the CR"? The former is the ONLY option with any chance of mitigating the damage. Shutdown is the ONLY leverage you have. And NOW is the best time to do it. Have you seen the polling? Have you seen how bad this week has been for Musk/Trump?

@emptywheel.bsky.social

I'm watching the senate floor live feed, and Schumer is arguing against a shutdown because "bad things will happen" (my paraphrase). The same bad things that are ALREADY HAPPENING, AND WILL HAPPEN IF THIS CR PASSES.

Why indeed. These...people cannot be negotiated with. Only the hardest political hardball will slow them down at all.

2/ I've called my senators and left a voicemail for Schumer. But I also just sent email to both my (Dem) senators, because I feel like I can express myself better and in more detail in writing, here's what I just emailed

The fight over the CR continues. Looks very much like the Senate Dems are trying to pull a fast one--trying to say "we tried" while actually capitulating. 1/

Keep calling, folks.

*tap* is this thing on? @blueskymoderation.bsky.social not sure where I transgressed to earn an automatic "spam" label for my account. Can you clarify?
