Oh man, the New York Young Republicans implicated in the Nazi groupchat scandal ran up a $23,000 tab eating filet mignon and drinking at a hotel in Syracuse -- a city with one of the highest child poverty rates *in the nation* -- and then refused to pay the bill.

Donald Trump shut down the government because he doesn't want you to have healthcare.
But this isn’t just on him. Democrats MUST use their leverage to protect our rights, but it can’t end there.
Schumer and Jeffries can’t just go on TV or write letters, they need clear demands. We need action now.
