the secret is not

no, the secret is

If your government sends a $40B "gift" to another country while refusing to feed its own children, you need another government. There's nothing wrong with foreign aid (in most cases); but there is something wrong with letting kids and veterans go hungry while sending it.

This is where a lot of people are at. Having anyone put in this place is too much. Healthcare premiums people can't afford + Medicaid being taken away entirely from some of us = a lot of suffering and death.
The cheapest plan available to me (a Georgian) is over $1,000 a month. Healthcare is no longer an option for me. I will ration the medication I take for as long as I can and then I will wait to die.
So every freelancer you know is going to lose their insurance or be bankrupted by premiums because Schumer is an invertebrate

Mike Johnson just said he made no promises about insurance subsidies. So there you go the people are screwed. Expect your premiums to double or triple.

If this week has taught us anything, it's that passionate people can defeat machines designed to break us. Don't look at the Dem Party as a completed institution, but one that is ready for change. We can take it and force it to work for us, which is happening now. Be a part of that and be loud.

Understand This Fact: Chuck Schumer is behind this. None of these 8 are up for reelection in 2026. Schumer asked them vote yes—they agreed. He's such a coward that he folded and won't even own it.

Following up on this. This remains a ‘cave is minutes or hours away’ situation. If you want to impact how this plays out you need to contact senators literally now. I want to add additional points of context. What I’m relaying is what I’ve picked up from highly reliable sources.
Sounds like the squishes in the senate caucus are ready to pull the plug with no ACA changes. This is real. If you want to register your opinion you shld call yr senator in the next hour. They not only want to reopen w/nothing. They want cover from their colleagues who still want to hold out.
