This is due to a law signed by Ronald Reagan and has nothing to do with this shutdown fight.

But consider this...

Emergency Medicaid spending in 2023 cost $3.8 billion — just 0.4% of total Medicaid spending.

Now what about the $20 billion taxpayers are giving to Argentina?

Sen. Bernie Sanders: If we do not make changes and fight back effectively, you're going to see 15 million Americans lose their health insurance through the cuts in Medicaid and the ACA. That's what's at stake.

Federal Agents Handcuff Chicago Alderperson At Hospital ER In another incident caught on video Friday, federal agents inside a car randomly threw tear gas into a Logan Square street while people — including a 2-year-old — were outside nearby.

Federal agents are overtly abusing their power to try to intimidate advocates and elected officials. We need ICE out of Illinois immediately and justice for people like Ald. Jessie Fuentes who are defending their communities.

Pritzker: "In any other country, if federal agents fired upon journalists & protesters when unprovoked what would we call it? If officials marched down streets harassing civilians & demanding their papers, what would we say? I don't think we'd have trouble calling it what it is: authoritarianism"

You‘d think the centrists and establishment people would all be going apeshit for Pritzker because they’re always looking for a new John D Rockefeller but I get the sense that they haven’t thrown in with him because he’s a little fight-y and not obsessed with bipartisanship

Guys, I can't seem to recognize any antifas. Can we put hats and other merch on the next meeting agenda?
Branding is everything, people!

Tried to get my real ID. I had my license, my SS card and my birth certificate.

I was not allowed to get my real ID because my birth name is different than my married name. Now I have to go dig up a marriage certificate. You know who wouldn’t have to do this? A man.

Never change your last name.

Remember: The GOP’s nonsensical culture wars are meant to distract you from corporate corruption and plunder. [Cartoon by Jace Avery]

HARDEST PHOTO OF 2025 JUST DROPPED

This scenario was an entire scandal in the George W. Bush administration that lasted for months, with hearings and the eventual resignation of the AG.

Late night hosts criticizing the president isn’t new. Having a thin-skinned dictator wannabe who can’t take it is.

Here’s Some Great News That’ll Ruin Trump’s Entire Day AOC gets bipartisan support, new maga infighting, calls for Kennedy to resign, and more

AOC has been working with Republicans to ban members of Congress and their families from owning or trading individual stocks.

AOC said: “It is one of those rare moments where I feel like Washington is working the way that it’s supposed to work, and it feels foreign, and it feels alien.”

Lydia, the 16 year old who is more honest than most of our elected officials and the corporate media who cover the administration

America is a ghost of a nation that doesn't know it's dead yet.

My name is Peter Morley. I live on fixed income. I have Lupus & chronic illnesses & disabilities & have subsisted on Social Security Disability for 18 years. I've survived cancer 2x & had 11 surgeries. I DEPEND on Medicaid & SNAP. I will NEVER GIVE UP fighting for me & for YOU until my last breath.💜

Many shelters require home visits before approving you to adopt a cat.

Watch. If you claim one of these to get a vaccine, they’ll use it later as a preexisting condition to crank up your health premium or kick you off your plan.

Except when you are complying with a psychopath who brought all the other psychopaths to a party at your house and you actually think you'll make it out.
