A Chuck Schumer anecdote worth reading:

Schumer wants us to believe Senate Dems are powerless while literally providing the votes to ensure the GOP agenda goes forward. If a shutdown was better for Trump, the House GOP wouldn't have passed this CR and the Senate GOP wouldn't vote for it. Schumer knows that; he's outright lying to us.

Schumer’s decision is an unconscionable surrender that shows he does not have what it takes to meet this moment, and the charade he pulled yesterday makes it even worse. Time for new leadership in the Democratic Party.

A few words on journalism, risk and what I actually said.

I think some in the Senate have convinced themselves that the backlash to folding will be limited to “the left” and therefore ignorable. Those people are deeply and profoundly misreading the moment and the stakes. Virtually every swing district House Dem walked the plank to vote NO for a reason.

It all makes sense once you realize a recession is actually a good thing for the 1%.

NEW: Senator Marshall (R-KS) RUNS AWAY, fleeing his own town hall after being asked about DOGE firing Veterans. MAKE HIM GO VIRAL.

We are members of Congress at the Treasury Department. We want to be let in to provide oversight on behalf of our constituents. @jasmineforus.bsky.social @sethmagaziner.bsky.social

The Trump approved, Musk executed take over of the non-military operations of the government is a 5-alarm fire, shout it from the rooftops moment. Here's my look at news outlets like @wired.com that get how big this story is & the ones that need to catch up. open.substack.com/pub/jennifer...

And our fellow media people need to stop pretending Trump won a "landslide." 1.7 percent is NOT a landslide. Nor is it a mandate.
