Chicago priest Father Michael Pfleger: "The state of emergency is in AMERICA, not Chicago. It's birthed from this president and his admin's reign of terror."

Jeffries: In that Oval Office meeting, which lasted over an hour, the amount of time spent talking about health insurance for undocumented immigrants was less than 10 seconds. You know why? Because they know it’s a lie. They didn’t even bother to bring it up—because the cameras weren’t rolling.

Trump WANTED the shutdown!

The most important decision we made on this campaign was to listen to New Yorkers. And they told us again and again that the greatest challenge they face is the cost of living.

More from Wednesday’s interview on The View.

A new KFF study reports: 24 million Americans will see their health care premiums under the Affordable Care Act DOUBLE.

Further, 15 million people will be thrown off their health care entirely.
 
Unacceptable. We can’t subject millions of Americans to this unnecessary suffering.

Rieckhoff: A vet on CNN said we haven’t fought to win in 20 years. I said, I was fighting to win. You were fighting to win.

Kander: That shit pisses me off.

Rieckhoff: He said he meant the generals. Which one? It’s boogeymen—and now cosplay warriors who never served join ICE to bully immigrants.

You can expect to see impacts of the government shutdown everywhere from TSA checkpoints to piles of s**t in national parks

We believe healthcare is a right for every American.

But starting today, millions of people will be notified that they are being priced out of their insurance thanks to Republican policies.

Enough is enough. The GOP may shut down the government, but we will stand tall for YOU.

Republicans are shutting down the government rather than fixing the healthcare crisis they created.

Democrats must use the budget negotiations to fight back.

I'm running for Congress after working on big budget and economic problems for years. I want to do the same in Washington.

Raskin: "It's not lost on anyone that shutting the government down allows them not swear in our new colleague, Ms Grijalva from Arizona, who would be the 218th signature to discharge the Epstein files and to put a vote on that on the House floor."

This moment is a test. Donald Trump wants us to blink first and hand him over power.

We have too much to save to give in. Protecting the American people is too important a task for us to give up before anything even starts.

Cankles admits to orchestrating the shutdown in order to rip away Americans healthcare and programs.

WATCH — @aoc.bsky.social : “At some point we’ve gotta call these people’s B.S. for what it is. You can’t believe everything a con man is gonna tell you. We cannot live in perpetual fear of these clowns.” #TrumpShutdown

What's the truth about the government shutdown?

Trump's been firing federal workers all year. Cutting programs all year. NOW he's using the shutdown to blame Democrats for what HE already did.

What "war" in Portland is Trump talking about? The battle of mellow artisans?

@jollygoodginger.bsky.social has a call to action for all #VetsAgainstTrump tomorrow @ 5pm.Trump has posted that Portland is now "war ravaged" and he's putting troops in the street. This is not true. There's no war going on in Portland. Antifa is not attacking anyone we are protesting against Facism

MAGA conservative Kirk fan, Thomas Sanford, drives truck into Mormon Church and murders at least two and injures at least 8.

Another day, another example of #racism from the Trump Administration. #resistance

AOC: “I’ve never seen anything like that!”

“And frankly men who treat women like that in public, I fear how they treat them in private. WE CAN BE BETTER THAN THIS!”

I fear more GOP attacks like #CancerAlley Rep. Higgins on @climateauntie.bsky.social.
