Crazy Pants..

 

Why give in now?    

Senator John Fetterman stood his ground, defending his bipartisan vote as a move to protect workers and families affected by the government shutdown.
"This isn't a political game," he said. “Forty-two million Americans now not sure where their next meals going to come from,” and federal workers haven't been paid in weeks.

FetterMan dismissed advice from both the far right and progressive icons within his own party.

"MTG is quite literally the last person in America that I’m going to take advice [from]," he said, referring to Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.).
He added, "And now if Democrats are celebrating crazy pants like that, then that’s on them."

Bias..

The BBC's director general Tim Davie and head of news Deborah Turness have resigned after criticism that a Panorama documentary misled viewers by editing a speech by Donald Trump.

The Telegraph published details of a leaked internal BBC memo that suggested the Panorama programmed edited two parts of the US president's speech together so he appeared to explicitly encourage the Capitol Hill riot of January 2021.

It is unprecedented for both the director general and the head of BBC News to resign on the same day.

Davie said: "Like all public organizations, the BBC is not perfect, and we must always be open, transparent and accountable.

"While not being the only reason, the current debate around BBC News has understandably contributed to my decision.

"Overall the BBC is delivering well, but there have been some mistakes made and as director general I have to take ultimate responsibility."

Comment:

Were they innocent mistakes?     Just a thought.

The Ire..

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) has become the target of progressive anger after moderate Democrats struck a deal to reopen the government, raising questions about his future atop the conference even as he distances himself from the agreement.

Progressives, both those in the House and those running to join Schumer in the upper chamber, did not hesitate to lay blame at the feet of the New York senator, arguing his ineffectual leadership led eight Democrats to cut a deal with Republican leaders to reopen the government in the coming days.

But notably, that public anger has not extended to the upper chamber. A number of Democratic caucus members said that while they remain upset with how the shutdown turned out, they don’t agree Schumer deserves the blame for it. 

Still, it marks the second time in eight months that Schumer has drawn the ire of the progressive wing of the party, having backed a clean funding bill back in March that fueled questions about his tenure atop the Democratic caucus.
