Let me get this straight. Republicans want democrats to accept abortion restrictions that will endanger millions of Americans in exchange for health care subsides for millions of Americans.

My grandfather had a favorite saying I like to bring up at times like this.

“Don’t piss down my back and tell me that it’s raining”.

No healthcare, no deal.
Hold the line.

If senate dems cave now, this shutdown would have been for nothing.

Billionaires still get tax cuts.
Millions lose healthcare.

Hold the line.

Now not the time for dems to
fold. We had huge W’s less than a week ago now some dems are going to vote to end ACA tax credits.

Have we learned nothing?

If these billionaires cared about people over profits, they wouldn’t pay ANY of their employees so low that they qualify for public benefits.

Republicans have decided that forcing states to scramble to feed people by Nov 1 is a better option than sitting down with Democrats and negotiating to get the government out of this shutdown.

Why?

Because they desperately want to line the pockets of their billionaire buddies.

It would cost RI roughly $1 Million a day to fund SNAP without the federal government…
October 28, 2025 at 2:24 PM
SNAP benefits will not go out Nov. 1 because the President is only willing to illegally fund ICE and not food for 40 Million Americans.

The President’s authorities under Article II are limited to responding to an armed attack/the threat of one and do not apply here.

These continued strikes — 27 killed to date — risk getting the U.S. into a full fledged war.

We have now struck 5 boats in the Caribbean illegally for allegedly smuggling drugs.

At this point congress is condoning this behavior.

Impressive grassroots effort by some young policy and political entrepreneurs.
I’ve been working on this for a WHILE and would be so grateful if you could check it out and share—Dems need a vision, and they keep missing the mark. We built it for them, grassroots, and have a plan to make it happen.

What if we could channel all our frustrations over our country’s rapid slide into authoritarianism into advocacy for policies that work for all of us?

We can. Welcome to @americandemands.bsky.social #DemandBetter

All eyes on Gaza.

All boats in the Sumud Flotilla intercepted and peaceful activists arrested in international waters.

Gaza City given final removal order, any left will be considered a terrorist.

Nexstar (owns 30 ABC affiliates) and Sinclair (owns 40) won’t being back Kimmel.

70 markets now get different media.

This is concerned.

Nextstar and Sinclair refuse to
bring back Kimmel tonight.

So lot of markets will not see his show return.

Don’t fall for the headlines. We keep boycotting.

This is the playbook, folks.

If you're not paying attention now and doing something about it, then you're going to have to sit down the rest of your life because democracy is being taken away.

Do not be quiet in this moment.

The goal is to keep us silent.

Make talking about slavery taboo, so it can be repeated.

Make condemning hate speech an attack on their idol.

Make people afraid to speak, even rich powerful white men, and you control what gets covered.

Democracy dies in darkness.

HBCU’s are on lockdown following the Charlie Kirk gun death yesterday.

Earlier this week SCOTUS ruled that ICE could use racial profiling in their stops for people they believe are in this country illegally.

These two things are connected.

Here’s how 🧵

Oh also, I’m not seeing much on the Colorado school shooting today…

Condemn the gun violence every time, for every person.

It’s the guns. It’s the guns. It’s the fucking guns.
September 11, 2025 at 1:19 AM
It should really worry all of us that unilaterally condemning gun violence is painted as a surprisingly bipartisan issue.

I want to fight for a world
where the expectation is we all vehemently condemn political violence and gun violence.

Every time. For everyone. Period.

Jokes aside, if Biden was AWOL for four days and had nothing on his sked for a holiday weekend:
-CNN would permanently show a running clock on the last time Biden was seen in public
-Alex Thompson would publish multiple stories a day on Axios
-Chris Cillizza would crank out 56 "But His Age" stories
