I love the ideal of democracy too much to go anywhere else. Opposed to a party that enables and normalizes authoritarianism. Travel. Books. Friends. Nature.

Bullshit. In all of the majorities theyβve had since Obamacare passed, theyβve never once tried to replace it.
Theyβve tried to repeal it a whole bunch, but never actually make it better.
Senate Dems, do not cave. Ensuring healthcare premiums donβt surge is an 80-20 issue. They want to gut the ACA because their disdain for Obama far outweighs their concern for anyoneβs health.

Mike Johnson is still refusing to swear her in because sheβs the final vote for the discharge petition to release the Epstein files.

Fun times.

The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.
It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

I can think of 747 reasons why they shouldn't. π€
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.
She believes in the sanctity of traditional Christian marriage.
