They were never going to get ACA subsidies, which is part of why it was a mistake to insist this was only about ACA subsidies and nothing else.
Sincere question: does anybody have any evidence that the GOP/WH would have eventually folded and extended the ACA subsidies if the shutdown continued?
I haven’t seen any. The President didn’t seem to feeling any pressure. No GOP Senator AFAIK expressed any concern. (Some Reps did)

A huge part of P2025 is the mass firing of gov workers. Forcing their rehiring is a pretty big fuck you to Vought and his agenda
The alternative is a longer period of gov workers not getting paid

Dems need to find former Gov David Patterson and get him to record an ad saying he's glad Mike Johnson replaced him as the most blind politician of all time

I remember my older neighbor, WW2 gen, referring to Bill Clinton disparagingly as the "first black president" and many of the time used a word other than black. Gingrich and the broad sides against Clinton with the help of Rush and the 1996 radio deregulation brought us here

There is more than meets the eye going on here and the media are being decepticons like usual. Ignore the soundwave and mirage they are creating and all that jazz, don't fall for the smokescreen and get sideswiped

The right believes in violence having a direction, like reverse racism implies racism has a proper direction, they think violence should flow right to left and "reverse violence" is affront while "normal/proper violence" is hilarious
