Seven Democrat senators and one Independent voted to advance the Republican budget to the Senate. ACA health insurance subsidies were not included in their negotiations. They betrayed Americans who begged them to continue voting no. Millions will now become uninsured.

Finally, some good news! Democrats win in Tuesday's elections as voters reject Trump's political agenda. Could this be the start of a blue wave?

Trump's been court ordered to release SNAP funding but it's now evident that he has no intention of doing so. He posted today on his Truth Social page that he's not releasing funding until "Radical Left Democrats" pass his budget [that will cause millions of Americans to lose their health insurance]

As SNAP benefits remain paused some grocery stores offered discounts to recipients. Trump's administration stopped this by twisting the intent of SNAP's equal treatment price gouging rule that protects recipients. Discounts were never the intent of the rule.

ACA insurance enrollment began yesterday. Enrollees are shocked at the huge increases in their premiums due to the Trump administration's termination of their healthcare subsidies. Millions of people will lose their health insurance because they can't afford it.

Concerned for children's safety, IL's gov asked Kristi Noem to pause immigration crackdowns over Halloween. Instead Federal agents chased people through front yards, drove SUVs onto sidewalks & used chemical agents on furious residents in Chicago & northern suburbs.

The request, obtained by the Chicago Sun-Times, comes four days after ICE agents fired tear gas in the Old Irving Park neighborhood as families and children walked to a Halloween parade.

Steve Bannon, far right influencer & Trump's former White House chief strategist, claims there's a plan for Trump to run for a 3rd term. Our Constitution states presidents can't serve more than 2 terms, but Trump doesn't seem to care about Constitutional violations.

Screenshot from Trump's Truth Social page, posted early this morning. Evidently he's forgotten that he was the president on Jan 6th. This is not the first time that he's exhibited such confusion. There is something seriously wrong with him. Republicans need to acknowledge this and invoke the 25th.

This morning, the Trump Administration’s Department of War gave me an ultimatum: call up your troops, or we will. It is absolutely outrageous and un-American to demand a Governor send military troops within our own borders and against our will.

Trump's vengeful retaliatory behavior is nothing new. He's been firing workers and withholding funding since day one. And now he's actually bragging that a member of his administration was instrumental in the development of Project 2025.

Assuming that Democratic Congressional members hold their ground this time & won't surrender to the Republicans, there will be a government shutdown by the end of today. What is a government shutdown and how will it impact us? CBS News offers this helpful explanation:

The deadline to pass the federal budget is Sept 30. Republicans want to decimate the Affordable Care Act (“Obamacare”) but Democrats want to preserve it. If the Republicans succeed, health insurance premiums will skyrocket & millions of people will become uninsured.

Trump is authorizing Troops to use “full force” against Antifa. But antifa is NOT an organization, it's an abbreviation for anti-fascist, an ideology that most us believe in. Authorizing troops to use full force against U.S. residents is Trump's boldest, most dangerous move yet.
