Posting this- soon I expect the Trump gestapo will remove it. From NIH website. Posting for no reason except that the man who stole her research died yesterday and she was an amazing scientist in a sexist world #rosalindfranklin

With their arms still in the air from their traitorous votes, while the ink is still wet, little Johnson says what everyone knew … yet the traitor dems still cast their votes.
In the most predictable development ever, Mike Johnson is not committing to hold a House vote on ACA subsidies

Hey, @schumer.senate.gov!

Americans gave you a clear assignment last Tuesday, and you didn’t understand it.

Now, we are giving you another one: Step down and allow a Democrat with a spine to unite your caucus for the good of all Americans.

Remember what you told Biden? Now, tell it to yourself.

I’m leaving this post up for transparency’s sake, but I just got some clarification on the federal RIF reinstatement/moratorium.

It only stops them from re-firing people until January of 2026 - I thought it was also a year.

So yeah, there’s not much of a win here. Apologies for the misread.
Honestly, this is likely as good of a deal as the Democrats are going to get.

Reinstates fired federal workers. Prevents admin from re-firing them. SNAP funding for a year, and an ACA vote in December.

Voters are already blaming the GOP for the ACA - make them vote against it.
