Today is Day 36 of the Republican shutdown. Your regular reminders: 1. Republicans control the White House, Senate and House. 2. GOP making deep cuts to Medicaid, Medicare and ACA. 3. Democrats are fighting to lower costs, cancel the cuts and save healthcare for Americans.

Trump to Republican senators: "I thought we'd have a discussion after the press leaves about what last night represented and what we should do about it and also about the shutdown and how that relates to last night. If you read the pollsters, the shutdown was a big factor, negative for Republicans."
Ted Lieu@tedlieu.bsky.socialNov 5(source)
Democrats won, and the GOP lost, in EVERY statewide election last night, not just in blue states. And the margins were not close. Maine Georgia Pennsylvania New Jersey California Virginia The American people sent a powerful message to Trump and Republicans: WE WILL NOT YIELD.

WE DEFEATED THE VOTER RESTRICTION AMENDEMENT IN MAINE!!!!!
Ted Lieu@tedlieu.bsky.socialNov 5(source)
Based on the complete rejection of Trump and the GOP tonight, from Virginia to Georgia to California, I predict the following: 1. Even more House Republicans will announce they are retiring or running for another office. 2. Democrats will flip the House.

BREAKING: Proposition 50, California's redistricting amendment, is projected to pass, reports @decisiondeskhq.bsky.social
Ted Lieu@tedlieu.bsky.socialNov 5(source)
Cry harder. Trump will never be on the ballot again. And Trump can reopen the Republican shutdown this week by stopping the Republican assault on healthcare and hungry kids. #bluewave

I missed Trump’s lavish Great Gatsby party that he threw last week while he threatened to cut off food assistance to hungry kids during the Republican shutdown. But I did meet the amazing leadership of Meals on Wheels West, and helped deliver food to constituents today.

Yes, this is real. Trump was throwing a Great Gatsby party while 42 million Americans faced uncertainty about getting food assistance.

O'DONNELL: Why did you pardon Changpeng Zhao? TRUMP: Are you ready? I don't know who he is O'DONNELL: His crypto exchange Binance helped facilitate a $2b purchase of World Liberty Financial's stablecoin. And they you pardoned him. TRUMP: Here's the thing -- I know nothing about it

Today is Day 34 of the Republican shutdown. Your regular reminders: 1. Republicans control the White House, Senate and House. 2. GOP making deep cuts to Medicaid, Medicare and ACA. 3. Democrats are fighting to lower costs, cancel the cuts and save healthcare for Americans.

It’s worth repeating: Republicans control the White House, the Senate, and the House. If Donald Trump said end this shutdown today, Republicans would do it.
Ted Lieu@tedlieu.bsky.socialNov 2(source)
NBC poll shows we are in Blue Tsunami territory. Why? 1. House Democrats have been in DC the last 5 weeks fighting to lower costs, save healthcare and reopen government. Where are House Republicans? STILL ON VACATION. 2. Americans are fed up with Trump’s authoritarian crap and corruption.

“.. Democrats lead Republicans in the fight for Congress by 8 points, 50%-42%, the largest lead for either party on the congressional ballot in the NBC News poll since the 2018 midterms. @nbcnews.com www.nbcnews.com/politics/ele...

California is crushing it with #YesOnProp50! The 5 Dem seats CA creates are better than the 5 GOP seats that TX created. IN ADDITION, Prop 50 strengthens 5 Frontline Dem seats AND 3 Frontline adjacent seats. Prop 50 helps Dems in over a dozen districts. ADVANTAGE: Dems.
Ted Lieu@tedlieu.bsky.socialOct 31(source)
Today is Halloween and have you noticed candy prices are higher? So are overall grocery prices, which are surging. The economic policies of Trump and his rubber stamp Republican Congress are crushing Americans.

It was already bad enough that Republicans cut billions from SNAP in their Big Ugly Bill. Now they’re refusing to use legally available funds to pay benefits in November. Republicans need to stop playing politics with hunger.
Red and white text on a black background that reads: "42 MILLION. The number of people who will lose SNAP benefits because of the Republican shutdown and Trump's refusal to use legally available funds. SNAP provides food to hungry kids, seniors, and people with disabilities."

Joined @demwomencaucus.bsky.social and the Democratic Steering & Policy Committee to highlight the expensive cost of healthcare and childcare. Republicans need to end their vacations and work with us to address the needs of the American people.

The Trump Administration is trying to intimidate voters in California. WE. WILL. NOT. YIELD. Make sure you vote if you are in CA, and vote yes on Prop 50. Vote by mail, or drop off your ballot at a drop box, or vote in person. Stick it to the Trump Administration by voting.

New in PN: The DOJ's "election monitoring" is really voter intimidation "If Hispanic voters are no longer in the GOP fold after watching Trump’s ceaseless, country-wide violence against immigrants, the administration’s solution is to make sure they can’t cast a ballot."

Pleased to have joined @housedemocrats.bsky.social to share our gratitude for the dedication and hard work of the U.S. Capitol Police. Their work to keep the Capitol office buildings, staff, and visitors safe is deeply appreciated, and that is especially true during this shutdown.
