@leogregis@prem_thakker@WajahatAli Hegseth”s head isn’t the trophy.
End the Iran War
Medicare 4 All
Reinstate Medicaid and Snap cuts
Jumpstart affordable housing starts
Fix Social Security
Things like this are the trophies.
Success on those fronts gets the Presidency in 2028 and more gains in Congress.
@BradKutner If she and her team hadn’t been unprepared to govern, there likely would have been fewer vetoes of issues she allegedly supports.
Resulting in no need for a “Unity Event”.
Resulting in nothing for Brad to ruin.
So it’s really her fault.
@leogregis@prem_thakker@WajahatAli The point is that if each side “did all they could do”, the result would be the same.
Handwringing accomplishes little.
There are many reasons to axe Jeffries, but the angst and rage over this specific situation is social media fodder.
@prem_thakker@ActivateVA I have zero love for Jeffries. But why lie?
11 dems absent. 7 repubs absent.
If everyone shows up, it still goes to committee.
Make a real case.
@leogregis@prem_thakker@WajahatAli Has anyone mentioned that 7 republicans also were absent? That if everyone one was present, and voted party lines, excluding Massie, it still passes and gets sent to Committee.
@Ojeda4America@ActivateVA The CAO of my city, Richmond Virginia, was hired for $365k last year.
There are probably 30 or more city employees earning over $200k.
I am all for an employee getting paid what they are worth.
But I am also in favor of living within our means and that means cuts.
Any ideas
@gmoomaw Who abstained?
Did they give a reason why they abstained on a vote to delay?
Comical someone would abstain on such a vote.
Regardless, it’s amusing that CC has the hubris to think anybody, anywhere, gives a crap what they think.
@RichmonderNews “U.S. District Judge David Novak called DiBella’s conduct “boorish.””
“All parties here would be better served by resolving their disputes at the bargaining table rather than dragging the Court into their sophomoric soap opera,”
DiBella is a clown. Everyone can see it.

@ActivateVA The potential good news is that
-regulators, in South Carolina, have stepped in
-statutory minimum reserves are still a reasonable buffer
-policyholders are usually covered by state funds up to 2-300k
-life insurance policyholders almost never get stiffed on a claim. Very rare.
@BreRVA@ActivateVA The new blue wave may actually make her a bit more liberal. She will see it as a safer spot than before the beat down.
But what do I know🤷♂️
@BreRVA@ActivateVA I think she does. I think her whole schtick, straddling the middle on issues she clearly ran on, is to potentially make her palatable to a wider audience and the Big Money that gets folks elected these days.
@BreRVA@ActivateVA Could be. But that’s where that road would end. Sitting Senators rarely get elected President.
Obama was the last.
Before that Kennedy, over 60 years ago.
