I have to hand it to Democrats. I'm one of the feds working and not getting paid and they manage to make reopening the government feel worse than the alternative.
Like, why did I miss 2.5 paychecks to end up right back where we were before the shutdown started?

Not a political consultant but I’m not sure “standing up to trump doesn’t work” is the best midterm message, even if if accurately represents senate dems position. Not much point in putting you in power then bsky.app/profile/atru...

The FCC’s cap on prison phone and video rates is increasing, and costs for families in Oklahoma and all across the country are rising again.

Reduced phone rates in Oklahoma prisons are not returning
Phone calls from prisons will now be capped at 11 cents per minute, with up to 2 cents per minute going to corrections officials.

One point worth emphasizing here: The punditry has been saying Sherrill (and Spanberger) represent the sane centrist wing of the party versus the left. Well, okay, but here Sherrill is urging more fight. Again, the results show that anti-Trump + affordability can *unite* the party. This shows how.
This is really good to see: Miki Sherrill just put out a statement sharply criticizing the Senate Dems' pending cave in the government shutdown, ripping it as "malpractice" and a betrayal of the people who are "counting on us to fight for them." Sherrill knows what drove her victory. Wake up, Dems.

agreeing to make a terrible deal while your main opponent is quite literally being boo'd on live tv by an entire stadium of people is the kind of political instinct you'd normally only find in a 3 week old dead goldfish

i think this is key. taking the deal would amount to taking the blame. it would turn a clear political victory into an unambiguous defeat.
If the Dems blink after all of this, for a deal that all but ensures no ACA subsidies in 2026 anyway, then what was the purpose of letting the shutdown go for 40 days in the first place?

As someone in active treatment for breast cancer, I will never forgive any “Democrat” who votes to cave without any attempt to save coverage for millions of Americans who are seeing their premiums skyrocket.
Sounds like the squishes in the senate caucus are ready to pull the plug with no ACA changes. This is real. If you want to register your opinion you shld call yr senator in the next hour. They not only want to reopen w/nothing. They want cover from their colleagues who still want to hold out.

Hey @bcbsm.bsky.social, care to explain why you’re denying coverage of a procedure for a breast cancer patient that could significantly lessen the chances their arm blowing up like a balloon for the rest of their life due to lymphedema caused by the removal of lymph nodes?

I nearly broke down in tears listening to AOC and Bernie’s live stream about the shutdown—AOC acknowledging chemo putting people into debt with premium increases, and Bernie acknowledging that if you’re sick and can’t go to a doctor, you die.

This includes the third-country removal to Ghana and another secret flight. We figured out where it landed.

it's so funny to see America's health insurance companies be like "look. If there's one thing we love it's denying you care. but we ran the numbers - and we cannot BELIEVE we're saying this - and it's cheaper for us to just pay for the vaccines than deal with you going to the ER."
Regardless of the disgraceful nonsense we will likely hear from this administration in the coming days on vaccine “recommendations,” Americas healthcare insurers issued a joint statement tonight saying coverage for Covid and flu shots will remain unchanged from prior years.
Speaks for itself.
