This is fundamentally Nazism. The idea that different peoples than the favored races carry degradation in their very genes, that they cannot strive to become better because biology compels them to be worse. It’s not just repugnant, it’s a bald faced lie.

Four of Trump's five children have an immigrant mother, and the one who doesn't is married to the son of two immigrants.
Trump makes the outrageous claim that “most” immigrants, which include over 25 million U.S. citizens, “are on welfare, from failed nations, or from prisons, mental institutions, gangs, or drug cartels.”

As insulting as the “deplorables” comment, and on Thanksgiving day no less.

I feel like I just can’t enjoy the holidays with knowing my healthcare is going to be $1800 a month next year.
I have been going to all of my specialists and trying to stock up on meds.
Find out about liver tumor next week.
The other plans are more unaffordable to use and don’t have my doctors. :(

With Insurance premiums set to skyrocket Trump is now trying to extend the Obamacare subsidies, putting Republicans who have railed against it in a box.

Reminder: with the shutdown Dems shined a light on this so everyone knows who to blame if they don’t. punchbowl.news/article/whit...

Our health care system is badly broken, but Republicans’ “concepts of a plan” to crush the Affordable Care Act for the umpteenth time just is not going to work.

I've had a missile blow up next to my airplane, been shot at dozens of times by anti-aircraft fire, and launched into orbit — all for my country. I never thought I'd see a President call for my execution.

Trump doesn’t understand the Constitution, and we're all less safe for it.

Interviews and records show the White House intervened on behalf of accused sex trafficker Andrew Tate during a federal investigation.

The incident is the latest in a string of matters where the Trump administration has inserted itself to help friends and target foes.
The White House Intervened on Behalf of Accused Sex Trafficker Andrew Tate During a Federal Investigation
Federal authorities were chided for seizing electronic devices from Tate and his brother, and told to return them, records and interviews show. Experts said the intervention was highly inappropriate.

This may be Trump's perfect social media post. A true work of art. He confirms:

✅He personally directs criminal investigations.
✅He is targeting opponents.
✅Epstein "records" exist and he knows the contents.

Bonus points for connecting it to investigation of his fondness for Putin.👀

AOC: "It is unconscionable that what we are debating right now is legislation that will give 8 senators over $1 million a piece & we're robbing people of their food assistance & healthcare to pay for it. How can we vote to enrich ourselves by stealing from the American people?"

The White House confirms Trump officials tried to convince Lauren Boebert today to drop her support for the Epstein files discharge petition.

Once Adelita Grijalva is sworn in this afternoon, majority support will be reached on that discharge petition in the House.

In a way, it's bringing back pre-existing conditions charges because if you're being treated by specialty doctors and it's working, you can't just leave them to find others within a cheaper insurance plan (and wait months for appointments because you're a new patient).

Another horrifying consequence of Republican abortion bans that block women from getting the basic health care they need.

My family has been without half our income for 40 days. It has been.. very hard.

We are willing to feel that pain so people can have health care next year, or to undo these illegal recissions.

We are not willing to have been put through this for NOTHING.

This deal to reopen the government is fucking disgraceful.

Tens of millions will lose their healthcare. Trump will be emboldened.

This is exactly what’s wrong with Democratic Party leadership and why we need more people in Congress who will actually hold the line.

Dems caved in March expecting a better deal in Sept; Dems cave now for the promise of a better deal but without a date certain (a deal without a date certain is no deal at all!).

Repubs have had 15 years to provide a better healthcare plan

they have none

you have lost credibility

MSNBC reported Schumer's office felt that the longer that shutdown went on, the more likely it was that people would start to blame the Dems.

My kingdom for Democrats that don't govern out of fear. I've said it before and I'll say it again: The American people are far braver than their reps.

It’s not hyperbole to say that people will die as a result of this alliance.

Allowing these financial supports to lapse will further drive millions of people into dire circumstances, forced to choose between surgeries or groceries...
