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?

If we lose SNAP and health insurance anyways then this was all for nothing. Fund SNAP, and renew ACA benefits. Don’t open the government otherwise.
I’ve been furloughed since Oct 1 and will gladly stay that way until those are guaranteed

3 people were hospitalized from this fire after Judge Diane Goodstein issued a ruling temporarily blocking SC from handing over millions of voters’ personal data to Trump. Trump allies - including Elon Musk - ramped up their criticism of judges for being politically biased against the GOP.

Holy shit, they're literally preventing people from becoming citizens by arresting them as they arrive for their hearings. This isn't about bad people. This is about nonwhite people becoming citizens.
This is yet another video of a person who is going in for a PLANNED AND SCHEDULED immigration hearing, being grabbed by plainclothes police or agents, and attacked before they can get to their hearing. We need to find a way to shame the people doing this work.
