"AOC & Bernie are not even welcome to come in to speak at these encampments, but I can. So let me tell you something, there's no way in hell that these younger kids are gonna vote for AOC to be president. They can forget about that. The Democratic Party, better wake the hell up and smell the coffee. Otherwise, they can forget about their party forever. What we saw in this last presidential election might have killed their party forever." -@Shut_downAmazon

@TVietor08 It says a lot that you and your ilk were always more worried about being humiliated for your stance than disavowing and deconstructing it in the face of genocide.
@susanbordson@ChildrenNeedUs_@KhatyaChhor@daveweigel The press used the right’s framing because the right spoke persuasively in a way the liberals could not. Disciplining the press into parroting the dem party line through finances or social pressure will only make the press less relevant to those you’d want to convince.
@AJManaseer@leighbeadon@Econ_Marshall People have less subjective criteria to judge rent by. AMI? High rent for incomes in the area is a reasonable qualification
BREAKING: Mitch McConnell just shut it down. No recess appointments, no cabinet approvals—Trump’s team is officially locked out.
This isn’t just a casual move; the Supreme Court has made it clear that the Senate must recess or adjourn for at least 10 days before a president can make unilateral appointments.
But here’s the catch: pro-forma sessions keep the Senate technically “open” during long breaks, with a lone senator showing up to open and close the chamber—no real business, just optics. And the House plays its part too, blocking any chance for the Senate to fully adjourn.
McConnell’s maneuver leverages these rules to maximum effect, ensuring Trump’s team is stalled at every turn.
Tactical genius or just petty politics? Either way, the gridlock is real.
