No, the @TheDemocrats shouldn't have both their leaders from the same state. This should be obvious to everyone but apparently some just want the same ole, same ole. @SenSchumer @RepJeffries

Think of how many small businesses would thrive without being forced to provide healthcare for their employees, putting that money back into the labor force.
Sen. Bernie Sanders (@SenSanders) challenges Democrats to think beyond the status quo. He joins Jon to discuss the party’s path forward and the fight for Medicare for All. New pod out now!

COATES: One Fox News host called you a bigger threat to the GOP in 2028 than AOC
COLOM: I'm not trying to be a threat to anybody. I'm trying to focus on delivering for Mississippi. I'm not trying to get into national punditry, where we try to figure out, you know, who's this or who's that… I think we got too much celebrity in our politics. We got to get back to leadership that's rooted in serving people.

No one is getting mad at politicians fighting for public healthcare. Well, only you.
What is the purpose of this commentary?
We just had an election. Nine seats flipped. Only one of the seat-flippers embraced this idea in the campaign. Why the determination to make people mad at the people who just won?

Tonight the House voted 211-204 to shelve Hegseth's impeachment.
And 11 Democrats didn’t show up to vote.
They would have made the difference. And made America one step closer to safer and more secure. But on the night before Veterans Day, they were AWOL.
Here they are.
Democrats, not a good start here.
Get your shit together. Fast.

Could the @hakeemjeffries supporters out there just explain to me how yesterday he already knew and smiled that he had the votes to be named Speaker of The House
But today...
He somehow did not know 11 Democrats in the House would not show up to vote to impeach @secwar Hegseth?
You allow your employees to decide which insurance they want. That's the entire point! Give America a choice. As an employer, I would love to be absolved of the archaic burden of having to provide healthcare. I would make so much more money and have less on my plate.
If you own a company that is struggling with the cost of care, from the corporate side and the employee side, and a public option becomes available, do you keep your healthiest employees on your plan, and push/pay your sickest employees to take the public option? Or not.

Cuban, you've been in the healthcare game a very short amount of time. Please, I beg of you, shut the fuck up! America needs a public option.
When you talked to Virginia Mason and UW Medical, curious what they said about how M4A would impact them and their care for residents of the state of Washington
Can you share with us what they said ?
Have you dynamically modeled the impact of M4A on leading Washington state hospitals and their patients ?
Have you done any work on whether Direct Contracting is the way to go to reduce OOP costs for patients and employers ?
Just trying to learn more. TIA !

Don’t feel like there’s been enough discussion about @LeaderJohnThune being the most inept and weak Senate Majority leader in modern times. No meaningful legislative influence, weakened the Senate’s power, and couldn’t even protect his members in safe seats. A disastrous tenure.

Same guy who thought Haley Stevens would be running away with it in Michigan.
Just saw an ad from Rachel Maddow once again claiming that MSNOW reports the news “without fear or favor” while also promising that they want to appeal to a community that shares their values or some such. It’s like they can’t even hear themselves. Just own what you are.

The thing he doesn’t fully grasp is that for many American Jews — not all, but including those who believe policies of Netanyahu Govt. has turned Israel from David to Goliath -support for Israel has become part of their Jewish identity. Egypt thing doesn’t quite work.
.@AbdulElSayed makes the fundamental point that criticism of Israel's misconduct is not necessarily a swipe at Jews any more than criticism of Egypt's misconduct is is a swipe at Arabs. If you don't care for human rights for all, you don't actually care about human rights at all.
I just watched @mattyglesias on @zeteo_news and holy shit!! Matty looks even weaker/dumber after the elections. It's as if this guy has never heard of the word "context" before. His entire political philosophy is in a vacuum

MS NOW: Scott Colom won’t commit to backing Chuck Schumer as Senate Majority Leader once the Mississippi Senate race is called for him
“It’s not a good thing that both Leader Schumer and Leader Jeffries both live in the same borough, right? I want somebody that understands rural America.”

For years, my dad battled Parkinson’s disease. On Election Night, I got to tell him, “Pop, we won.”
This morning, he passed away.
A part of me believes he held on just long enough to see his son make it to Congress.
He won’t be there when I’m sworn in. But I know he’ll be standing right beside me.
Rest easy, Daddy. I’ll take it from here. These next two years are for you ❤️
