Enjoy some truth about the #TrumpShutdown @markwarner.bsky.social

Just a reminder that NWS is considered essential during a government shutdown. Meteorologists will still go to work, forecasts will still be made, watches and warnings will be issued, data will flow. We won’t be paid until the shutdown ends, but we’ll still protect life and property as always.

Members of Congress still get paid during a government shutdown Some House and Senate lawmakers are requesting that their paychecks be withheld as millions of federal workers prepare to go without pay.

Millions of federal workers won’t get paid during a government shutdown. But members of Congress will still receive a paycheck.

Judge orders Trump administration to preserve $233M in FEMA grants it attempted to pull from blue states The administration’s abrupt effort to repurpose the funds mere days before the end of the fiscal year appears to be illegal, the judge said.

NEW: Judge Mary McElroy, a Trump appointee, ruled that the effort appeared to try to sidestep another judge’s recent ruling that blocked the administration from punishing states who don’t cooperate with immigration enforcement.

There is only one proposition on the California November ballot

It's Proposition 50

It's for the 50 states and colonial territories of the United States. It's for SAVING the republic.

YES on 50
YES on 50
YES on 50

Pay attention & get ready to act

If people have to choose between health insurance and rent and food, I expect health insurance to go to the bottom of the list for those who hope they are in good health

Expect medical bankruptcies to SKYROCKET

Only happens in the USA

Aaaaaaarrrrrrrrrgggggghhhhhh

Why Democrats Didn't Cave on Healthcare Tax Credits The House Democrats' calculator is a useful tool to show just how urgent a tax credit fix is to American families.

I agree with MG (Retired) Paul Eaton. Thank you for your leadership.

Showdown is needed now

Agreed

The federal government looks set to shutdown at 12:01 a.m. on Oct. 1. Here at home, the shutdown could mean service delays and dwindling resources for programs on which Iowans rely. Read more here: bit.ly/42kMQUm

Wake up & take action time!

Aha or oops? Caught!!!

850 people in small-town Maine 13 months before the election.

Mainers have never been more ready for change.

Not that anyone is keeping track.

An article headline graphic: Graham Platner draws hundreds to town hall kick off as Senate bid builds

While Susan Collins refuses to hold town halls and hear from the people of Maine, I am embarking on a statewide town hall tour.

850 showed up for the first one in small town Maine.

A quote graphic: I don’t think we should have a system where only the wealthy get to live healthy lives.

Medicare for All is the answer.

When someone shows you who they are, believe them.

Chuck Schumer has showed us time and time again that he is wholly incapable of understanding and meeting the dangerous moment we are in.

It’s time for new (and better) Democratic leadership.

An article headline from The New Yorker: Can a Maine Oyster Farmer Defeat a Five-Term Republican Senator? Graham Platner, a local veteran, is angling to take on Susan Collins, who may be vulnerable in her 2026 reelection bid-and is drawing support from both sides of the aisle.

Hell yes, we can.

Last night: Over a thousand Mainers got drenched in Portland.

We’re building a movement, and nobody — not Susan Collins, not Chuck Schumer — is going to stop us.

I made a couple of new friends this week—Teddy and Rowyn. This campaign isn’t just about the moment we’re in; it’s about building a better future for them.

My name is Graham Platner and I’m running for US Senate to defeat Susan Collins and topple the oligarchy that’s destroying our country.

I’m a veteran, oysterman, and working class Mainer who’s seen this state become unlivable for working people. And that makes me deeply angry.

This district deserves leadership that shows up, listens, and delivers. I’ll be there. You should be too.

Congress is in recess this week for district work. And by all accounts, my opponent Marjorie Taylor Greene has nothing on her public calendar this Thursday.

So here’s my invitation: join me at my town hall in Walker County. We’ll be at the WCCC in Rock Spring and doors open at 5:30, program at 6:00

Spread the word: Congress is in recess this week for district work. And by all accounts, my opponent Marjorie Taylor Greene has nothing on her public calendar this Thursday.

So here’s my invitation: join me at my town hall. I’ll be there. You should be too.

MARK YOUR CALENDARS! This Friday, September 26, at 7 a.m. EST, I will be going LIVE on all social media platforms with VOICES FROM THE DIRT ROAD, the first episode of our weekly series on all things Agriculture.
