No war but the class war.
Pinned
Some important points about universal healthcare that are separate from the fact that it would be free:
1) it would incentivize preventative care, so fewer people would have long-term or chronic health issues, and fewer people would need emergency services.

I'll get back to "party unity" as soon as the Senate Minority Leader tells us if he voted for the Democratic party nominee for mayor of his city.
I'm tired of party unity only ever running one way.

If you think the people throwing Great Gatsby-esque parties for themselves, while millions were denied their food assistance, are all of a sudden going to grow a conscience and save affordable healthcare, you clearly have not been paying attention.

Pay attention to what Democratic candidates are saying right now. Find and support the fighters. Having a spine must be a litmus test issue in 2026 and beyond.

I've looked at all the details of this deal to end the shutdown reached by a small group of Senate Democrats. I've talked to a number of friends on the Hill to see if there's anything I'm missing. Sadly, I am not.
This is a shit deal. It's a betrayal. It's cowardice.

Democrats have spent the past 30 fucking years insulating the GOP from the political repercussions of the pain they have said REPEATEDLY they want to inflict. And look where it's fucking gotten us (hint: there's a narcissistic deranged fascist in the White House).

Dems backed Trump into a corner where he’s advocating for starving Americans and hemorrhaging support. If they vote to let him off the hook in exchange for nothing it’s a cataclysmic failure. I know people are in pain but insulating Republicans from political consequences is not the answer.

What pisses me off the most is that the Senate has just disenfranchised the millions of Democrats who actually showed up to vote. Not the swing voters, or the 3rd of Americans who can’t be bothered.
The people who actually did care enough to vote. The Senate just told those voters to Fuck Off.

45 DAYS YALL THIS IS NOT ABOUT HEALTHCARE
It’s been 45 days since Adelita Grijalva was elected by the people of Arizona.
Mike Johnson is still refusing to swear her in because she’s the final vote for the discharge petition to release the Epstein files.
