Reopening the government without preserving ACA subsidies will kill the ACA. It is the end of affordable healthcare for millions of Americans. The GOP will not let those subsidies be reinstated, and they have no plan. You let this happen, and your legacy in the Senate will be ending the ACA.

Durbin and the other Senators who voted on this aren't up for reelection, and wanted the government to reopen.
I'm more than a little angry that they're ready to let the Repubs kill ACA to do it, though.
And Durbin is not Pritzker. He's done stupid s#!t before.

That's the damn suburbs. There's no violence happening out there that isn't caused by ICE/NG.

This is straight up silencing of any dissent.

A friend of mine who used to do trainings on data analysis for law enforcement told me the FBI used to be the most professional of the agencies she worked with.
What's hapoening under Patel is a tragedy for the nation.

(Immigration agents were always the worst.)

There are definitely those who do, and use it as such.
I hope it's true that most MAGA want the full files released, no matter who is implicated.

If Clinton is exposed by the Epstein files, then he should be prosecuted and imprisoned if guilty.
This isn't hard.
And very telling that MAGA think it's some kind of gotcha.

No, we literally want ANYONE implicated brought to justice. Even prominent Dems.
Does not, and should not, matter.

BS
She was a Black woman and not a MAGAt.

That was reason enough. There is no room for anyone in the federal government who isn't a Trump toady.

This is just a continuation of the Trump regime following Hitler's playbook.
