After the shutdown during the 1st Trump admin, Congress passed a law to guarantee back pay for furloughed workers.

That bill was signed into law by Donald Trump.

Workers will be paid.

This chaos is a distraction from Trump's failure to secure a deal to lower health care costs.

Health care is a fundamental right. It's time we start fighting like it.

And now USDA has announced that new SNAP rules which will decrease benefits must be running by the states on November 1st!!!!!!

We cannot let this shutdown continue.

It is time for Speaker Johnson to bring Congress back to protect affordable health care for more than 20 million Americans and reopen the government to serve the American people.

this is unacceptable kidnapping. I am so sorry you are going through this

2 Mass. brothers aboard an aid flotilla to Gaza have been detained by Israeli forces: Here’s what we know. The two Sheffield men were arrested by Israeli forces and taken to Ashdod after their boats were intercepted Wednesday and Thursday.

MA residents Torleif and Adnaan Stumo, and everyone else taken from aboard the Global Sumud Flotilla should be immediately freed.

It is unconscionable that the Israeli military continues to block humanitarian aid, food, water, and baby formula.

End the genocide & surge aid into Gaza NOW.

We all need universal healthcare if we wish to be part of the rest of the "modern" world

The actual "enemy from within" Trump lays the groundwork for using the military on dissent.

Medicare, as of today, will no longer cover telehealth visits.

I can’t imagine a bigger slap in the face to our patients.

Rest in power Dr Goodall 😢

Republicans control the House, the Senate, and the White House.

If the government shuts down, it’s on them. They own this. And the American People will pay the price.

Judge rules that federal government violated free speech rights of noncitizens engaged in pro-Palestinian speech - The Boston Globe In his ruling, US District Judge William Young wrote that the members of the Trump administration coordinated between departments to “intentionally to chill the rights to freedom of speech.”

Trump gets humiliated at the UN, Kimmel returns, he drops further in the polls and just goes fucking crazy at the White House today. Insane new tariffs, Comey, war against his domestic opponents, shutting down the government.

He is losing it, and it’s getting dangerous out there.

Help Prove RFK Jr. is Wrong | Defend Public Health When Senator Wyden stated he’d heard from thousands of doctors and scientists concerned by RFK Jr’s policies, Kennedy responded "I'll put my mailbag against your mailbag any day.” Let's prove Kennedy ...

RFK Jr. claimed that scientists and healthcare providers support his dangerous agenda, and also claimed his mailbag is bigger than Senator Wyden’s.

Yes, this really happened.

Defend Public Health has a new campaign. You can help prove that we do not, in fact, support RFK Jr. or his ideas.

We have just one week left until a Republican government shutdown.

Democrats are ready to pass a bill that keeps millions of Americans from getting kicked off their health care. Trump and Republicans won’t even come to the table to negotiate.

I loathe that we need GoFundMe campaigns for this type of thing, but Randy is a real one. Kind, dedicated, smart, funny, and deeply a good person. If you have a few dollars or well wishes please send them his way

Randy is one of the kindest and smartest folks I have the pleasure of advocating with. Please support him and his family at their time of need. @resultsorg.bsky.social @fracposts.bsky.social
