Open enrollment begins on Saturday, and Americans are about to face health insurance sticker shockโ€”double, triple, or even quadruple for their monthly premium costs.

Republicans did this, and what are they doing to fix things? Absolutely nothing.

Many of us here in the U.S. are extremely grateful for Canadians playing hardball. Every world leader that kisses his fat ass makes it harder for people HERE to get our footing in this fight against this bloated fascist & his minions. So... bless you, Canada. ๐Ÿ’—

The government has been shut down for 27 days.

Families are already seeing their premiums skyrocket for next year.

This is a crisis and NEVER in my time in office have I seen a president who won't even TALK to the other side about a solution. This is absurd.

A doctor doesn't schedule an MRI unless he suspects that there is something wrong with you physically.

And a doctor doesn't have you take a Cognitive Test unless he notices cognitive decline.

Neither test is a sign that Donald Trump is in a healthy physical & mental state.

Someone want to tell Mikey here that 86% of all SNAP benefits go to households that include a child, an elderly person, or a person with disabilities?

Or that almost 40% of SNAP recipients are children?

And that Whites account for 37% of SNAP recipients?

Not a shred of evidence provided.

Now you know.

Millions of kids depend on SNAP to eat. When Republicans endanger these benefits, theyโ€™re endangering children.

Cutting SNAP isnโ€™t fiscal policy, itโ€™s cruelty.
Volunteer or donate at your local food bank.

Many food banks also accept & distribute cat and dog food.
Many rescues & shelters also have food pantries.
(This is also important, because many people will cut back on quality & volume of food they eat. In order to keep their pets safe at home.) โค๏ธ

Iโ€™ve been regularly volunteering at a food bank for about a year and please, if you want to help, consider donating cash.

For $3, they can provide 15 meals and what they can do with the money you might spend on a few cans can be converted to vastly more in fresh fruit, vegetables, dairy, or meat.

NEVER FORGET: In July 2025, the GOP passed the BBB with $75B in additional, multi-year funding to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).

BUT the GOP Congress will NOT negotiate to EXTEND ACA Subsidies for 20M+ Americans for $32B. #GOPPriorities

This stone is actually at the FDR Memorial. Even so, I hope the next lawfully elected president, should we ever have another, pursuant to and in accordance with a statute duly enacted by a functioning Congress, should we ever have another, will have it permanently displayed in the Oval Office.

All Democratic politicians should be using the destruction of the White House as a backdrop to talk about how Donald Trump is destroying everything we value to enrich himself.
