Of course advance information on US combat operations is classified. Pretending otherwise is an insult to our troops, who all know this. The Secretary is unfit to lead.

Step up, stand up, speak out. This moment is hard — I don't dispute that, but this isn't the time to be afraid. Make your voice heard, whether it’s at a town hall or on the phone, so Donald Trump and Republicans know how sick and tired you are of them cutting your services.

Among the material devastation to everyday people, Senate Dems have now blown a hole in their ability to work with the House. We had an agreed upon plan, House took immense risk, then Senate turned around midway and destroyed it w/ a fear-based, inexplicable abdication. They own what happens next.

Okay so, is Schumer voting for the CR because shutting down the government is worse? If so, why? And does the DNC support it? If not, why not? The problem with all this is that WE DO NOT KNOW.

Schumer is toast either way. If the Senate Dems votes in favor of cloture he will be seen to have led it. If they vote against, he will be seen as out of step with his own party.

Republicans’ partisan spending bill turns the federal government into a slush fund for Donald Trump and Elon Musk. It’s unthinkable that any Senate Democrat would hand them a blank check by voting for cloture.
