Buttigieg: You’ve got a president and a Republican Congress who would rather see the entire government shut down than allow Americans to afford their healthcare.

A shutdown can be avoided. Republicans should:
✅ Cancel the cuts
✅ Lower the costs
✅ Save your health care
Democrats will NOT back down. We’re fighting to protect affordable care and put patients before politics.

Jimmy Kimmel’s back and he met the moment—calling on Americans to continue to stand up for free speech.
“This show is not important. What is important is that we get to live in a country that allows us to have a show like this.”
He also chokes up as he resets what he meant about Charlie Kirk.
