THIS. I've been saying it for decades... I don't understand why Democrats put up with "liberal" being used as if it were a pejorative. The correct response is "Of course I'm a liberal/leftist, as is anyone with any sense of realism, common sense, and human decency."
I feel like the right gets a lot more representation from their reps than liberals do. Democratic politicians always want to apologize for being liberal, and Republicans don't mind being raging assholes and don't apologize for it.

No Dem Senator has to follow Schumer here. This is a weak stategic move driven by fear and learned helplessness. Don't follow him. He's leading the party into irrelevance and helping Trump and Musk in the process. Call your Dem Senators and ask them not to join Schumer's surrender tomorrow.
SCHUMER just now: "While the CR bill is very bad, the potential for a shutdown has consequences for America that are much, much worse."
Tanking the stock market, slashing jobs, and threatening social security. Is this what people voted for?
