heather cox richardson about the shutdown backfiring for republicans

"three in four people enrolled in ACA plans live in states trump won in 2034"

... they would have to explain this to their constituents when 59% of republicans and 57% of MAGA supporters would see their insurance rates skyrocket

Journalist Edward R. Murrow used his platform on CBS to criticize the witch hunts led by Senator Joseph McCarthy in the 1950s.

This is what real journalism should do โ€” hold power to account, not capitulate to it.

Buried in the polls, with every American screaming for the Epstein files, the walls are closing in on Tangerine Palpatine.

Sending troops to every city you can in a desperate attempt to make martial law happen is not strength. Itโ€™s the last gasp of a dying regime.

Last year they claimed โ€œillegalsโ€ were voting, without any evidence.

They used fear mongering to push for voter suppression laws.

Now they claim โ€œillegalsโ€ are getting free healthcare, again without any evidence.

So they can make healthcare unaffordable for millions of Americans.

Enough.

Whoa! The shutdownโ€™s ripple effect starting to hit.

Burbank Airport in LA County has no air traffic controllers on duty due to sick calls, last-minute day-off requests, and staffing shortages.

If youโ€™re flying anywhere in the country, check for delays.

Oh look the party that screams โ€œfamily valuesโ€ every five minutes is silent when one of their megachurch darlings pleads guilty to child sex abuse. But theyโ€™ll trip over themselves to ban books and attack drag shows. Tells you everything you need to know.

Letting the health care tax credits expire would devastate American families โ€” and weโ€™re making that crystal clear by giving you the data.

Weโ€™ve built graphics showing how much costs would rise in every GOP district.

Letโ€™s start with Mike Johnson (R-LA):

Republicans could end the government shutdown AND make your healthcare affordableโ€”they control every branch of government. They just donโ€™t want to.

Trumpโ€™s order to deploy Texas National Guard troops to Chicago is illegal, immoral, and must be stopped by the courts. ICE is already wreaking havoc in our communities. Letโ€™s call this what it is: an invasion by out-of-state troops coming here only with the purpose of tormenting Chicagoans.

Dr. Durrani reminds us: ER doctors are proud to care for anyone, anywhere, 24/7, 365. They swore an oath to heal, not to play politics.

Trumpโ€™s cruel cuts betray that oath and put lives at risk.

Health care funding saves lives. Period.

Just ask AFSCME member Annita Martinez, who fights every day to get patients the care they deserve.

But Trumpโ€™s yes-men in Congress slashed billions piling costs on workers and forcing hospitals to the brink.

โœจ Meet Izzy. At 16, heโ€™s already a fierce advocate. Living with autism, Medicaid gives him the care to thrive, go to school, and live his best life.

Families like Izzyโ€™s shouldnโ€™t have to fight for care, yet Trumpโ€™s cuts put kids at risk.

Democrats are rejecting a 7-week โ€œband-aidโ€ that delays the fightโ€”because waiting means 20M face higher premiums & 15M could lose Medicaid.

Better to fight now than abandon families later.

THE CHICKENS ARE FINALLY COMING HOME TO ROOST

Ryan Walters is out & the investigation floodgates just opened. The Oklahoma AG launched a full audit of Waltersโ€™ entire tenure as Superintendent, and itโ€™s about damn time.

Also the education dept websiteโ€™s being scrubbed of his culture-war nonsense.

SenatorWarnock just broke it down: health care is on the line.

A Chatham County family once paid $559/month for coverageโ€”now itโ€™s $2,100 after GOP subsidy cuts. Quadruple the cost just to stay insured.
