Sean Duffy’s been telling us for months that we have a critical shortage of air traffic controllers in this country which is causing serious safety issues in air travel, then Trump comes out today & calls them a bunch of traitors if they took a day off & encourages them to quit.

Yup. I said this earlier today, but it was only a guess. Thanks for confirming it. It is no coincidence that of the 8 who came forward to do this, none of them are running in 2026. But they ran cover for some who are.

When Democrats offered a clean ONE-year extension of the tax credits—which is truly the most straightforward and common-sense thing we can do for people facing gigantic premium hikes this year—Republicans said “never, ever, ever, ever.” They called it “political terrorism.” Are you serious?

I will not let people forget that the same Republicans who did everything in their power to make tax breaks for billionaires PERMANENT refused to even negotiate ONE YEAR of health care tax credits for working families.

they were used, manipulated & lied to.

now they're paying the price, just like under other republicans.

unfortunately, "farm accidents" are about to spike.

bc life insurance won't pay if it's on purpose.

it'll largely be an econiomic decision.

it's becoming tradition.

help farmers again, dems!

watch the number of "farm accidents" spike like they did during the farm crisis in the 80s.
TENNESSEE FARMERS: “The tariffs pass down to the consumer… had to take on 2nd & 3rd jobs… 4 blood pressure pills a day…”

Why won’t Republicans fight for them and ask Trump to stop the pain instead of supporting this like @MattForTN Van Epps & @rustygrills & @MarshaBlackburn?

I voted NO. As long as there is still any time left to reverse the MAGA health care hike, I believe we should do everything we can to force Republicans to the negotiating table.

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.

The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.

People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives.

And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

the democrats who caved and handed republicans a win that DOES NOTHING FOR THE AMERICAN PEOPLE betrayed us.

they sold out their constituents to keep their seats. they chose wrong.

we had repubs backed into a corner and those dems chose to quit on us.

Nancy Pelosi never let her caucus break on important votes. Chuck Schumer can't even keep his caucus together to protect 10 million people's healthcare.

It doesn't actually matter if Chuck Schumer votes for this or not.

If he can't keep his caucus unified to protect healthcare for over 10 million Americans, he should resign as leader.

Let’s be clear: Chuck Schumer is the one ending this shutdown, no matter how the votes read.

Chuck Schumer is claiming that he’s voting no, while letting other Senators (Fetterman, Kaine, King, etc) do HIS dirty work.

He must be removed from his leadership & primaried for the sake of this country

dammit, they're doing it wrong!

the regime is fighting to get out of paying snap benefits,

which are cut off

BECAUSE THEY WANTED TO PRICE AMERICANS OUT OF HEALTH CARE.

tell the whole story, dems.
