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.

The administration went all the way to the Supreme Court on Friday night to halt food-stamp funding. 🤡

Mike Johnson?

8 senators trusted Mike Johnson?!?

Since when does the party of starvation, disappearing humans, and imploding the national healthcare system keep “deals?”

Never. This IS the art of MAGA dealings.

Complicit or idiocy - they really screwed the whole country.

Who would trust anybody in the Trump Administration? This is ridiculous.
Maybe I missed it but did the 8 Dems that voted for the latest CR get a commitment from Johnson to allow a House vote to extend the ACA credits?

(A big) If Thune keeps his word & miraculously enough Rs vote to extend the credits, what compels the House to take up the bill?

This guy knows nothing. It will "cost less." You've got to be kidding.
Trump: "I want the money to go into an account for people where they buy their own health insurance. It's so good. The insurance will be better. It'll cost less. Everybody is gonna be happy. They're gonna feel like entrepreneurs. They're actually able to go out & negotiate their own insurance"

Hey everyone,
I see a LOT of people so furious at Dems they're registering as Independents.

I get it. I really do.

Just be aware that most states have closed primaries so you won't be able to vote in those. And as you smart folks know, primaries are critical to weed out wackos and bad bills.

I told you, but so many loud talking know-nothings had Schumer diarhea of the mouth. People on the Hill talk to me because I am LOYAL. I keep their confidences and I NEVER stab them in the back for clicks. If I am punching, I am punching Republicans.

I’ve only posted one GFM, and it’s my intention never to post another. But this one is close to my heart. I know the family personally and have visited with them countless times. If you can help out, it would be great. If not, I completely understand - but a retweet is free.

🚨This 16 year old was living a normal life until this administration took over the country. ICE is the enemy of humanity, decency, integrity, and all that used to represent this country. Meanwhile, Trump is building a private army, one that will be more ruthless and violent. 1/2

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.
