What was the damn point of the shutdown? People missed paychecks, families went without SNAP, and Democrats walked away with nothing.
This isn’t about moderates versus the far left. It’s about who’s actually fighting for people who are struggling.
She nails where so many of us are right now.

I am angry. And bitter. And frustrated that only a handful of democratic senators were able to wreck the leverage we built for a return of ACA subsidies.
So I channeled my rage into something creative—watch this and tell me its not how it happened 😭🙄😩

Tim Kaine is notorious for not allowing after hours voicemails, consequently it’s very difficult to get a call into his office bc the lines are so jammed up. But don’t stop trying. @kaine.senate.gov

I live in Virginia and we don’t want this. Americans deserve affordable healthcare. Please hold the line until ACA subsidies are actually secured—not just a consideration.

Chiuck Schumer:
attempted a strategic play, which failed miserably
OR
couldn’t unify democratic senators for one of the most consequential votes of our time.
Either scenario warrants Chuck Schumer’s replacement as Senate minority leader.

My family was told 6 years ago to raise $50,000. dollars for our son to be added to a lung transplant list.
This money was in attention to insurance paying for the surgery.
Healthcare sucks in this country ,we just lost any chance of changing it last night and protecting the ACA
We were shit on.

Come on! We know members of the Senate are “free agents,” but the fact is Schumer didn’t hold his caucus together & isn’t doing his job as Leader
We’re supposed to believe it’s a coincidence that none of the Dems who voted yes on the CR have anything to lose in 2026?

Maybe I’m late to this realization, but it just hit me…
What are the odds that Speaker Johnson calls the House back for a CR vote with the Epstein files still hanging over his head?
Those 8 Dems might have hung themselves out to dry and risked being primaried for nothing.

So not only are Republicans withholding SNAP money, now Donald Trump is demanding the states UNDO their payments of SNAP for November.

The loss of SNAP benefits means that people are choosing between feeding themselves or feeding their pets.
Absolutely no one should have to make that choice. Let’s flood food banks & shelters with pet food & connect with corporations willing to step up—looking at Chewy

Families on SNAP worry about not just feeding themselves but also their pets
With SNAP benefits going out late, nonprofits are begging for pet food donations to prevent desperate owners from surrendering their dogs and cats to animal shelters.
