For fucks sake Dems DO NOT CAVE

New: Sens. King, Shaheen, Hassan led negotiations on a deal that will have enough Democratic support to pass in the Senate, I'm told. This is the package: - CR thru Jan 30 - A vote on a ACA bill by a December, on a DEM bill - Minibus WHICH INCLUDES reversal of shutdown RIFs and back pay and protections against them happening in the future PLUS SNAP is funded through the fiscal year 26

Dems have spent the past two months saying they're fighting to address the crisis of spiking healthcare costs and now they're caving for a deal that does nothing to address healthcare costs ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.

The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.

People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives.

And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

Anytime John Fetterman is trending, it's never a good day.

Dems backed Trump into a corner where he’s advocating for starving Americans and hemorrhaging support. If they vote to let him off the hook in exchange for nothing it’s a cataclysmic failure. I know people are in pain but insulating Republicans from political consequences is not the answer.

The only silver lining to last night’s cave.

Damn. I missed Josh Shapiro tearing JD Vance a new one yesterday

The SNAP contingency fund holds around $6 billion.

Trump refuses to spend it on the American people.

The same guy who just fast-tracked $40 billion to Argentina.

Trump thinks Argentina deserves our money while he lets Americans starve.

Explain all the seats that flipped R to D. I'll wait while you try to cope even harder, dear.

This guy is a legend
Expressing the collective thoughts of the world.

Andrew Cuomo being cheered at the finish line by Trump, Musk, and Stephen Miller says it all, and he will have the Election Day that New Yorkers find appropriate for such a man.

The gunman who orphaned Bambi has endorsed Andrew Cuomo.

ICE is now using facial recognition software— including on American citizens — to detain people its app concludes are in the country illegally.

This, as Trump says ICE raids "haven't gone far enough."

Connect the dots: No one is safe from Trump's tyranny.

Elon Musk backs Cuomo against Zohran Mamdani in NYC mayoral race Musk encouraged NYC voters to back former Gov. Andrew Cuomo over Zohran Mamdani the day before the city's mayoral electi

First Cuomo got Trump's endorsement, now he's got the endorsement of the richest man in the world.

It's clearer than ever that there's only one candidate for NYC Mayor who will actually stand up to the oligarchs: Zohran Mamdani.

If Mamdani wins, it will show that the oligarchy is just not as competent as some of us thought.

According to new NBC and ABC/Ipsos polls, Trump's approval ratings — especially on the economy and cost of living — are now in the negative double digits.

Remember: Trump is a failing president.

He is not all powerful.

it's time for journos to start asking Johnson meta questions

"Speaker, on 5 occasions last week you said 'I haven't seen it' when asked about news events w/big implications for public policy. Do you ever read the news, and do you agree it's problematic for the Speaker to be so woefully uninformed?"

Walmart, McDonalds and Amazon are the largest employers of people who require SNAP assistance.

The CEOs earned between 18-40 million last year, 1000x their median employee income.

They took billions in profits, while their workers relied on SNAP to survive.

Wanna fix fraud and abuse?

Fix that.

Republicans can fully fund SNAP, but are choosing to only fund it partially.

1 in 8 Americans rely on SNAP.

But Republicans care more about the 1 in 299,560 Americans that are billionaires.

This is an excellent idea!!!

You know you're doing something right when you've got the plutocrats buying news outlets to churn out this drivel in a desperate attempt to get a nepo baby sex pest elected instead of you

THIS right here is one of the many reasons I know in my soul: that he did NOT win the election!

Threatening to withhold congressionally approved funds to affect a state election sounds an awful lot like blackmail. 2 crimes, 1 post.

Threatening to withhold funds if they don’t do his bidding would be all kinds of illegal…back when we had laws.

In his infinite arrogance the Fuhrer still believes he carries weight in New York, where he was convicted of 34 felonies and held liable for financial fraud and rape.

Where he bragged about having the tallest building after 9/11.

He might’ve forgotten. His brain is mush.

New Yorkers remember.
