Official statement from @JamesTalarico on shutdown negotiations

Dear @SenSchumer and @RepJeffries If this is accurate, you must step down and let new leadership helm the Democratic party. If you have a mutiny of 11 or more Democrats, you have no leadership in the Democratic party and the last month has been for NOTHING. Absolutely NOTHING.

A MAGA AG dumping false oppo in an oversight hearing shows just how low they go. We usually expect Attorneys General to say true things. Seems like a reasonable expectation.

We secured the 218th signature. The press conference was scheduled. Epstein’s victims were ready to speak. So what did Republican leadership do? They sent us home during a shutdown. Bring Congress back. Swear @AdelitaForAZ in. It’s time to vote to release the Epstein Files.

The judge blocked the Trump admin. Steven Miller tweeted this:

Fact: by law, NONE of those benefits are allowed to go to anyone in the country illegally. Period. But they’re desperate to not talk about HUGE health care cuts.

The partisan Republican spending bill that guts healthcare was just defeated. Again. Democrats are holding the line. #TrumpsHealthcareShutdown

Murdoch-owned WSJ with the final nail in the Trump, Thune, Johnson argument.

Trump scammed you. He is, and was always, Project 2025.

🚨NEW: GOP Senator Susan Collins has voted against the Senate Democrats’ budget bill that would stopped a 60-120 percent increase in ACA health insurance premiums in Maine. RETWEET to let Maine know @SenatorCollins voted against affordable health care!
